Keating Of Chicago 14 IFM User manual

14 INCREDIBLE FRYING MACHINE®GAS
“Serving Those Who Serve The Very Best”®
2. The Keating frying vessel is 27% Cold Zone, the food
particles collected in the cold zone are unheated and
therefore do not carbonize and contribute to premature
shortening breakdown.
3. Keating’s INSTANT RECOVERY®feature means frying
at lower temperatures (325° – 335°F) extending oil life
while enhancing product quality.
EASY TO CLEAN.
Keating uses only 304 stainless steel in its frying vessel
design and polishes each vessel. The smoother the surface,
the less carbon build-up occurs, making cleaning easier. A
full one inch front drain allows easy draining of oil.
SAFETY CONTROLS ENSURE SAFE AND
ACCURATE COOKING.
The patented and precise thermostat controls cooking
temperatures to ±3°F. Hi-Limit control protects against the oil
and fryer overheating.
Each fryer goes through a rigorous 100% test before shipping
with every component carefully checked. The actual
temperature test chart is included with each fryer.
SPECIAL ORDER OPTIONS.
Keating gives you the widest range of options to ensure your
fryer is exactly suited to your needs.

DESCRIPTION
The Keating 14 IFM Fryer consists of a frying vessel 14" sq.,
having a splash deck and a splash back installed in a cabinet
equipped with gas burners and an automatic temperature control
mechanism, all arranged and designed for the proper frying of
food.
SPECIFICATIONS
Frying Vessel: shall have coved seamless corners and be
drawn from 18 gauge stainless steel, shall have a shortening
capacity of 38 pounds, shall be equipped with three horizontal
heat transfer tubes spaced above the bottom of the vessel so
that the bottom is unheated and the food particles collecting in
this bottom zone are unheated and therefore do not carbonize.
The frying vessel shall be polished to inhibit carbon build-up
and facilitate easy clean-up. The heat transfer tubes shall be 3"
wide and 5" high. The bottom of the vessel shall slope toward the
front where it shall be equipped with a 1" Teflon core 1/4turn, drain
valve, so arranged that the shortening can be drained into a
receiving vessel placed in front of the fryer.
Splashdeck shall slope toward the shortening containing vessel.
The splash deck shall be made of 16 gauge 304 stainless steel.
Splashback shall be made of 18 gauge 304 stainless steel, shall
completely cover the sides of the flue.
Cabinet: shall be made of 18 gauge stainless steel. The cabinet
shall be rigid in construction and shall have four 8" adjustable legs.
A door made of 22 gauge 304 stainless steel shall cover the front
of the cabinet and shall extend from the bottom of the fryer to the
panel, and above the panel shall be a canopy. The door shall be the
full width of the cabinet. No additional space is required for the
door to open a full 90 degrees. A stainless steel flue deflector is to
be provided for installing onto the flue back.
Electronic Ignition automatically lights burners. There is no
standing pilot to struggle to light.
Burners to be two inconel mesh tubular style encased in ceramic
cloth with rated output of 39,500 BTU/hr. natural gas per burner.
