INSTALLATION
SPECIAL NOTICES
o Your Friedrich Proofer has been thoroughly tested and checked before shipping to your store.
Upon receipt of crated unit unpack carefully and inspect for damages. File any claims that may
be required with the shipping company immediately. If necessary to replace damaged parts
with new ones, contact FMP via phone[phone] or FAX [phone] to expedite
shipment.
o The customer is responsible for providing and completing all the installation work necessary to
ensure the safe and proper operation of the Proofer. This includes but is not limited to
complying with all local codes with respect to electrical work and plumbing hookups (inlet
water line, water softener (if used), water filter (if used), and drain line).
o In addition all work must be done in strict compliance with plans and specifications provided
by Friedrich. Contact FMP in writing (FAX [phone]) for resolution of any matter
arising out of interpretation of plans and/or specifications.
o Further, if installers determine that an installation cannot be accomplished in strict accordance
with plans and specifications, the customer must contact FMP in writing (FAX) to request a
written authorization (FAX) to deviate from the original plans and specifications. Written
authorizations from FMP to alter plans and specifications will be added to the customer's order
file to preserve the equipment warranty. If a written authorization to alter plans and
specifications is not in the customer's own file and not on file with FMP, the equipment
warranty shall be deemed void.
*IMPORTANT*
o Any and all electrical, plumbing or other installation work not completed in strict accordance
with FMP plans or specifications or interpretations provided in writing (FAX) will
immediately void any and all warranties covering the Proofer.

INSTALLATION REOUIREMENTS.
a. Electrical Service - All FMP Proofers are ARL listed.
Customers are responsible for complying with local electrical codes when installing Proofers
purchased through FMP.
All Proofer models require isolated electrical service for operating the blower/control and
heating systems.
o Refer to electrical schematic for requirements on specific models.
b. Plumbing Facilities - All Proofer models require the following plumbing facilities to handle
the water needs of the humidity generating systems:
o 1/4-inch water inlet line
o 3/4-inch drain line(s)
o Cold water inlet
o An inlet water filter and/or water softener may be required in areas with known water
quality problems.
NOTE
Operation of the Proofer depends on the presence of some ions (i.e. iron), while scale forming
ions (i.e. calcium)can be a problem. In areas where there are known water quality problems
contact a local water treatment company for recommended filter/softener installations.
2-2. INSTALLATION DIAGRAMS. Figure 4-1 and 4-2 show where electrical service and
plumbing facilities are to be connected to a Proofer being installed. The electrical lines shall be
run and connected in strict compliance with local codes for 120 volt ac and 208/240 volt ac
service. The plumbing shall also be installed and connected to be compliant with local codes. In
addition the following plumbing installation techniques apply:
a. Use a 1/4-inch copper water pipe as the inlet water line to the Proofer water supply solenoid.
Water pressure must be 20-30 psi (pounds per square inch).
b. Use both a shut off valve and a disconnect fitting as part of the inlet line, installed as close to
the Proofer as practical.
c. Use a 3/4-inch copper drain pipe connected between the Proofer drain(s) and an approved
drain source. Pitch the drain pipe downward (1-inch per foot) to achieve an efficient gravity
drain. (A trough drain installed in front of the Proofer is highly recommended.)

SAFETY INFORMATION
1. The frame of unit MUST be electrically grounded at all times. See "Installation -
electrical."
FAILURE TO GROUND THIS UNIT MAY RESULT IN AN
ELECTRICAL SHOCK.
2. DO NOT use aluminum foil or any other protective material on inner liner surfaces or
food racks.
3. The proofing area MUST be kept clear and free of combustible materials, gasolines
and other flammable vapors and liquids.
4. DO NOT open service panel when unit is in operation, or leave open during
operation.
5. DO NOT allow unqualified personnel to perform service work or adjustments on this
unit. To do so will VOID warranty and could result in a hazardous
condition.
6. Be sure any new employees, who might operate the unit, are instructed on
operation and safety information prior to operating the unit.
7. Keep this instruction manual for reference.

Model FMP 100 - 200 PROOFER
PROOFER CONTROLS AND COMPONENTS
1. TEMPERATURE CONTROL - To be set between 90 and 110 degrees F. depending on
local conditions and product to be proofed.
2. TEMPERATURE INDICATOR - Light, to show heating elements are operating to bring
temperature in proofer to set value. Extinguishes when set value is obtained.
3. POWER SWITCH - To be set to "On" position for proofing. Built in power indicator lights
to show 120 volt AC power is applied to the blower and/or control circuit.
4. HUMIDITY CONTROL - To be set between 60 and 70% RH depending on local
conditions and product to be proofed.
5. HUMIDITY INDICATOR - Light, to show system is operating to bring humidity in proofer
to set value. Extinguishes when set value is obtained.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
REFER TO PAGES ON PROOFER CONTROLS AND COMPONENTS AS NEEDED FOR
DETAILS ON LOCATION AND FUNCTION OF FEATURES.
STEP 1 - Set power switch to “On” position.
Listen for and observe the following:
a. Fan starts and runs
b. Power indicator (built into switch) lights red.
STEP 2 - Depending on local conditions and products to be proofed, set humidity and
temperature controls as follows:
a. Set humidity control to recommended setting between 60 and 70% RH. Observe that
humidity indicator lights up, showing that system is operating to bring humidity in
proofer to set value. When first powered up, control displays actual humidity.
1. Press <SET> button….will display “SP”
2. Press <SET> button again to display or set desired humidity.
3. Press <UP> or <DOWN> arrow buttons to set desired humidity.
4. Press <SET> button again to initiate change….will display “SP”
5. Press <SET> and <DOWN> arrow button at same time or wait one minute to
quit programming and display actual humidity.
b. Set temperature control to recommended setting between 90 and 110 degrees F.
Observe that temperature indicator lights up, showing that system is operating to
bring temperature in proofer to set value.
STEP 3 - Wait 20 - 30 minutes for humidity and temperature inside proofer to stabilize.
NOTES:
1. If humidity is set too high, condensation inside proofer may be excessive and water
will accumulate on floor.
2. Frozen dough products must be completely thawed before proofing.
3. Humidity does not cause dough to rise, but does add moisture to prevent drying.
4. For “crusty bread” products, texture of proofed dough should be soft and pliable to
the touch, not sticky or dry. If the proofed product goes into the oven sticky or dry,
no matter how much steam is added during baking, a proper durable crust will not
form.
STEP 4 - Load product into proofer and proceed with proofing jobs for the day.
NOTE:
When loading and unloading product, keeping “Door Open” time as short as
possible will result in faster proofing and energy savings.
STEP 5 - After unloading last product from proofer at end of work day, set power switch to
“Off” position.
CLEANING
1. At end of workday wipe down inside and outside of proofer.
2. Once a week clean outside of proofer with non-abrasive stainless steel cleaner.

The points of connection for electrical service and plumbing facilities are shown for each Proofer
model in the installation diagrams on page 7 and 8. The installation diagrams also give details of
the physical features of each Proofer model for use by installation planners and installers. These
physical features include dimensional data, uncrated weights, and clearances required for
running and connecting electrical and plumbing lines. Use the installation diagram for the
Proofer model as a guide to installing the unit.
