Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility: This thermostat is compatible with Falcon Dominator 537320120 Gas Fryers and is a direct replacement for thermostat models RX-2-24, RX-1-36, and RX-22-36. It is designed for gas fryers utilizing milivolt control systems (0.67A, 5V DC).
Setup: Installation of this thermostat should only be performed by a qualified and certified gas appliance technician. This is due to the inherent safety risks associated with working on gas lines and high-temperature equipment. The process involves safely disconnecting the old unit, ensuring the gas supply is shut off, installing the new thermostat with its 36" capillary and 1/4" gland, and then rigorously testing for leaks and proper operation before returning the fryer to service.
Care: As a component within a gas fryer, direct cleaning of the thermostat itself is not typically required or recommended. Regular maintenance of the fryer unit, including cleaning the fryer basket, oil reservoir, and surrounding components, should be performed as per the fryer's manufacturer guidelines. Ensure the capillary tube remains undamaged and unobstructed. Periodic professional inspection of the gas system and thermostat is advised.
