Abstract
A fryer which can maintain a set temperature accurately preventing an overshoot of cooking oil temperature is provided. In the fryer, three burners 3-5 are dispersed against the oil vat such that their combustion can be controlled independently. On the other hand, the heating control means 8, according to a detected temperature, selects and carries out one mode among at least two heating modes, which are, a full power mode in which all burners 3-5 operate at the same time, and a low power mode in which two burners among three burners 3-5 operate. When the low power mode is selected, two burners are operated in a predetermined order to switch a heating area of the oil vat 2.
Claims4
A fryer comprising:
- an oil vat for containing cooking oil;
- a plurality of burners for heating the oil vat;
- a temperature detecting means for detecting a temperature of the cooking oil, and
- a heating control means for controlling the combustion of the burners based on a detected temperature obtained from the temperature detecting means,
- wherein the burners are separately provided against the oil vat such that the combustion thereof can be controlled independently and the heating control means, according to the detected temperature, selects and carries out one mode among at least two heating modes, which are, a full power mode in which all burners operate at the same time, and a low power mode in which one or some burner(s) operate, and when the low power mode is carried out, one or some burner(s) are switched in a predetermined order to switch a heating area of the oil vat.
