H52 Series Fryers manufactured for Non-CE countries use different burners for each type gas. The burners in fryers built for Propane gas have a special gray-colored coating on the burner tiles to en- able them to withstand the higher caloric value of the Propane gas. Burners designed for use in Pro- pane units may be used in natural gas applications, but not vice versa.
