Abstract
A fryer having an overheat protecting means for carrying out an operation test properly, thus improving the utility of the fryer. When it is determined that a high limit test is being performed a burner controller examines whether or not the temperature measured by a thermistor exceeds a preset level for the test determined by a fryer controller. If not, the combustion is continued and the burner controller repeats the test for overheating protection. When the temperature exceeds the preset level the burner controller tries to keep the temperature between the preset level and the preset level plus alpha. This is followed by turning off a high limitswitch and notifying the fryer controller for displaying a high limit abnormality.
