Vulcan 1VK65CF Gas Fryer - (1) 70 Lb Vat, Floor Model, Liquid Propane
The Vulcan 1VK65CF gas fryer sports a 19 1/2-inch-wide by 14-inch-deep fry tank that can hold as much as 70 pounds of oil. To ease operation while safeguarding employees, it has two 9 1/4-inch-wide by 13 1/4-inch-deep by 6-inch-high fry baskets capped with plastic handles, allowing easy insertion and removal of fried chicken, fish, and onion rings while reducing heat transfer to hands. It can be set to a temperature between 200 and 390 degrees Fahrenheit and, because it's programmable offline, users can set up ten menu timers, product displays, and cook times through a USB interface on the computer controls.
To prolong the oil's service life, this unit is equipped with the KleenScreen PLUS® filtration system, which utilizes a stainless steel oil pan that can hold as much as 110 pounds of oil. This system features a stainless steel mesh filter that filters from two sides to create a 270-square-inch filter area. The pump and motor are activated with the push of the button, causing them to circulate oil at a rate of 8 gallons per minute. Additionally, the drain-valve interlock switch shuts off the fryer's burners when oil is draining from the unit
Overall, the Vulcan 1VK65CF gas fryer measures 21 inches wide by 30 1/8 inches deep by 47 1/8 inches high and is constructed of stainless steel to provide durability with an industrial standard look that matches other back-of-house equipment. To ease cleaning processes, it includes a 1/4-inch ball drain to facilitate oil removal, while a tank brush and clean-out rod assist with precision. This heavy-duty model is placed on a set of four 6-inch casters, which eases maneuvering and transportation. Great for energy conserving purposes, its SoftStart® ignition extends oil life by slowly warming oil and reduces BTU production, while its FivePass® heat transfer system yields 78 percent thermal efficiency.
