Vulcan 1TR65DF Gas Fryer - (1) 70 Lb Vat, Floor Model, Natural Gas

For frying breaded ingredients, the Vulcan 1TR65DF PowerFry3® floor-model fryer is built with a 19 1/4-inch-wide by 14-inch-deep frypot that can accommodate 70 pounds of cooking oil. The included twin fryer baskets secure okra, fish sticks, chicken, and fries in place as the baskets are submerged and retrieved, and their plastic-coated handles minimize the risk of users getting burned. Its electronic ignition system simplifies startup, and operators can initiate one of three melt cycles to heat the frypot slowly upon initial startup for solid shortening. With the solid-state digital control, users can adjust temperatures from 200 to 390 degrees Fahrenheit. As many as two countdown timers can be set to minimize the risk of undercooking or scorching foods. To enhance energy efficiency, the SoftStart® ignition system outputs 40,000 BTUs when the unit is initially used, while the ThreePass® heat transfer system evenly distributes heat throughout the cooking oil, yielding 72 percent thermal efficiency and 60 percent cooking efficiency. Even at maximum production rate, the flue won't exceed temperatures higher than 750 degrees Fahrenheit.

The Vulcan 1TR65DF natural-gas-powered commercial fryer features an integrated KleenScreen PLUS® filtration system, which filters used oil with the push of a button to extend oil's service life. To simplify cleaning, it's built with a 1 1/4-inch port ball-type drain valve and includes a tank brush and clean-out rod. This freestanding unit measures 21 inches wide by 30 1/8 inches deep by 47 1/8 inches tall, providing a 36 1/4-inch working height. To ease repositioning for cleaning and maintenance, it's positioned on four 6-inch castersa€”two of which can be locked for stabilization. To complement other back-of-house equipment and provide corrosion-resistant durability, the cabinet and fryer pot are made of stainless steel.
