Signs You Need To Replace This Part

• Fryer oil temperature fluctuates wildly or will not hold a steady frying temperature
• Oil overheats past the set dial position and safety limit trips repeatedly
• Burner refuses to ignite or cuts out prematurely during a normal cooking cycle
• Visible signs of corrosion, leaking capillary, or a stiff thermostat dial that cannot be turned smoothly

Installation Notes

Drain and cool the fryer fully before fitting. Pass the bulb through the 3/8 inch NPT stuffing gland and route the capillary without kinking. Hand-tighten the gland first, position the bulb clear of the heat exchanger, then fully tighten. Test for oil leaks before lighting. Gas Safe registered engineer installation recommended for all commercial gas appliance repairs in the UK.
