Henny Penny Pressure Fryer Solenoid Valve – 24V 50Hz (Part No. 29698)
⚠️ IMPORTANT – Please select the correct version for your country before purchasing.
This listing is for the 24V 50Hz version (Part No. 29698) — suitable for Henny Penny fryers with a 24V low-voltage control circuit, used in UK, Europe and all 50Hz countries. If your fryer is in the USA or Canada (60Hz), please purchase Part No. 29515 instead.
About This Part
This is a high-quality replacement solenoid valve for Henny Penny commercial pressure fryers fitted with a 24-volt low-voltage control system. The solenoid valve controls pressure retention in the frying vat — closing at the start of the cook cycle and opening when the cycle ends to release pressure. A faulty 24V solenoid valve will typically result in the fryer failing to build or hold pressure during cooking.
