2-8. COMPLETE CONTROL Should the control panel become inoperative, follow these instruc-
PANEL-HENNY PENNY tions for replacing the board.

1. Remove electrical power supplied to the fryer.

To avoid electrical shock or property damage, move the

power switch to OFF and disconnect main circuit
breaker, or unplug cord at wall receptacle.

2. Remove the two screws securing he control panel and lift

panel up and out

3. Unplug the connectors going to the control board.

4. Install a new control panel.

2-9. PRESSURE REGULATION The Henny Penny Fryer uses pressure as one of the components of
the cooking process. Once the lid is sealed to the frypot, and the
solenoid valve closes, a deadweight valve maintains the correct
pressure in the frypot.

The lid has minimal and limited maintenance and repair procedures,
which are addressed in the following sections.

The following is a routine maintenance schedule for the Lid:

Every 90 days
• Clean and reverse the lid gasket

Yearly Inspection
• Check Lid Gasket for splitting and tears-replace if necessary

• Check Pressure Pads for wear-rotate if necessary

• Check Cam Slide Guides-replace if worn or broken

• Check Lid Rollers-replace if cracked or damaged

2-7 1103
 Model 590/592

2-10. TILTING THE LID The Lid Assembly is easily tilted up for cleaning or servicing.
UPRIGHT
1. Raise the lid and remove racks and carrier.

2. Grasping the lid handle, lift the front of the lid up until it
stops in an upright position.

Be sure the metal arm on the left side of the lid is in the
vertical position holding the lid upright, or severe injuries
could result. (See photo at left).

2-11. REVERSING THE LID The gray rubber gasket surrounding the inside of the lid is designed
GASKET to be reversed.

Because of heat expansion and the pressure used for the cooking
process, the gasket is constantly under extreme stress. Reversing
the lid gasket will help to assure that the fryer will not lose pressure
through leakage.

1. Put the lid in the upright position, as previously described.

2. Using a thin blade screwdriver, pry out the gasket at the

corners. Remove the gasket.

Check the gasket for any tears or nicks. If the gasket is

damaged it need to be replaced.

Be sure the metal arm on the left side of the lid is in the
vertical position holding the lid upright, or severe injuries
could result. (See photo in Tilting the Lid Upright Section)

3. Clean the gasket and gasket seat with hot water.

4. Rotate the gasket with the opposite side facing out.

Install the 4 corners of the lid gasket. Smooth the gasket into
place, working from the corners towards the middle of each
side.

2-12. LID COUNTERWEIGHT The Lid Counterweight in the back of the fryer balances the weight
CABLES of the lid system to allow easier opening and closing of the lid. The
weight has two cables attached to it, and weighs about 150 lbs.
(67.5 Kg).

1. Using a 3/8” socket, remove the nuts securing the rear shroud
of the fryer and remove the shroud.

2. Using Phillip’s-head screwdriver, remove the screws securing

the top cap and remove cap.

3. Raise the lid.

4. Unscrew the broken cable from the weight assembly and the
bracket attached to the fryer, and remove broken cable.

5. Screw a 5/16” nut on each end of the new cable.

6. Using a wrench, screw the new cable into the weight assembly

7. Using a 1/2” wrench, tighten the nut (already threaded on the

cable) against the weight assembly, securing the cable into the
weight assembly.

8. Pull the cable over the pulley and down behind the weight
assembly.

9. Insert the cable into the hole in the bracket and screw a 5/16”
nut onto the end of the cable. Tighten the cable, by screwing
the cable through this nut until the weight assembly becomes
level.

The safety cable should now have slack in it with the weight
assembly level.

10. Tighten the nut against the top of the bracket, securing the
cable.

11. Replace the top cap and rear shroud and repair is now com-
plete.

2-9 1103

180 degrees, and the other end of the pad used.

6. Install new pad in reverse order.

1103 2-10
 Model 590/592

2-14. LID ADJUSTMENT If steam leaks out from around the lid gasket, the pressure pads
could be worn or broken. If the pressure pad is worn, but not
broken, it can be reversed 180 degrees, and the other end of the
pad used. See Pressure Pad Section.

If steam leaks, check for:

• Pressure pad wear

• Cracked or worn gasket
• Gasket installed improperly
• Fryer operating above 12 psi (827 mbar)

Fryer should be operating at 12 psi, or serious burns

could result.

2-11 1103
 Model 590/592

2-15. SOLENOID VALVE This is an electromechanical device that causes pressure to be held
in the frypot. The solenoid valve closes at the beginning of the Cook
Cycle and opens automatically at the end of the Cook Cycle. If this
valve should become dirty, or the Teflon seat nicked, pressure will
not build up. The electric fryer uses a 208/240 volt 60 hertz coil (50
hertz internationally).

To avoid electrical shock or property damage, move the

power switch to OFF and disconnect main circuit
breaker, or unplug cord at wall receptacle.

Coil Check Procedure

Remove the solenoid wires from the wire nuts which are found
behind the control panel. Check across wires.
RESULTS
208/240 Volt, 60 Hertz 150 Ohms
208/240 Volt, 50 Hertz 230 Ohms

Replacement
1. Remove the right side panel.

2. Remove the “tru-arc” retaining clip on top of the coil housing.

3. Remove the cover.

4. If only the coil is to be replaced, disconnect the two coil wires

at the wire nuts in the coil housing. Remove the coil, insert new
coil, and connect the wires at the wire nuts. Assemble in reverse
order of disassembly.

The wires may be connected in any order.

2-19. CONTACTORS

The electric fryer requires two switching contactors: a primary and a

heat contactor. The primary contactor energizes (contacts close)
any time the POWER/PUMP switch is in the POWER position, and
the temperature of the shortening is below 420° F ( 215° C). The
high limit cuts power at the primary contactor if the temperature of
the shortening is above 420° F ( 215° C). The primary contactor
supplies power to one side of the heat contactor.

Primary

The heat contactor is controlled by the computer controller. When

the controller calls for heat, the heat contactor applies power to one
side of the heating elements. When the heat contactor and primary
contactor are energized (contacts closed) the electric heating
elements heat the shortening.

The photo shows a mercury heat contactor, but CE countries

Heat will have an electromechanical heat contactor.
