Vulcan 2TR85CF Gas Fryer - (2) 90 Lb Vats, Floor Model, Liquid Propane

The Vulcan 2TR85CF freestanding gas fryer is a 42-inch-wide by 34 19/50-inch-deep by 47 1/4-inch-tall unit built with two 90-pound-capacity frypotsa€”meaning various foods can be fried simultaneously. Both fry tanks include twin baskets to keep foods in place as they're lowered into the tanks and lifted from the oil. To protect users' hands, the handles are coated with plastic that minimizes heat transfer. Designed to endure high-volume back-of-house use, the cabinet and fry tanks are constructed of corrosion- and rust-resistant stainless steel. This two-battery unit is fitted with four 6-inch casters to simplify repositioning; because two of the casters include locks, it can remain secured in place during frying.

The fryer's computer controls enable users to set each frypot's temperature from 200 to 390 degrees Fahrenheit, choose to cook with compensating time or actual time, use 10 menu timers, select from three melt modes, and program menu items offline. Although this unit can output 90,000 BTUs per hour, its SoftStart® ignition system warms the oil, causing the unit to output just 45,000 BTUs per hour to reduce scorching risk. Its ThreePass® heat transfer system evenly guides heat throughout the oil to enhance efficiency, and to save energy, the idle temperature mode outputs 5,575 BTUs per hour to maintain the set temperature.

The Vulcan 2TR85CF high-efficiency commercial gas fryer's base houses a pull-out KleenScreen PLUS® filtration system, which is comprised of a 110-pound-capacity stainless steel filter pan, a stainless steel mesh filter screen, a suction tube, and a knurled knob that secures all components together. To activate the motor and pump, users can simply push a button for these components to circulate oil at an 8-gallon-per-minute rate. A drain interlock switch automatically turns off the gas burners as oil is draining for safety, and to create a 270-square-inch filtration area, its mesh screen filters particulates from two sides. Because the hands-free oil-return tube automatically adds filtered oil back to the unit once the filter drawer is closed, it eliminates the need to perform time-consuming hands-on tasks.
