Vulcan 2VK45AF Gas Fryer - (2) 50 Lb Vats, Floor Model, Liquid Propane

Because it's part of the PowerFry5® series, the Vulcan 2VK45AF commercial gas fryer is built with an energy-efficient FivePass® heat transfer system that evenly distributes heat throughout oil to yield 78 percent thermal efficiency and 66 percent cooking efficiency. Its 50-pound frypots have separate solid-state analog knob controls that enable operators to set temperatures from 200 to 390 degrees Fahrenheit and initiate fat-melt modes. Once the temperature is set, the SoftStart® ignition system rapidly heats oil; the idle temperature setting only outputs 4,251 BTUs per hour to save energy while maintaining the set temperature. To maintain a comfortable kitchen environment, the flue temperature doesn't exceed 500 degrees Fahrenheit when the unit is operating at the maximum production rate.

The Vulcan 2VK45AF freestanding high-efficiency fryer's two fryers each include twin fryer baskets that keep breaded and battered contents contained during frying. To minimize the risk of heat transfer, their handles are plastic coated. The frypots and the cabinet are constructed of stainless steela€”a durable, rust- and corrosion-resistant metal that can simply be wiped clean. Its base features an integrated KleenScreen PLUS® filtration system on a pull-out drawer to promote frequent filtering; with the push of a button, this system automatically starts a filtration cycle, circulating 8 gallons of oil per minute. Its filter pan can hold 70 pounds of oil, and once the filter drawer is closed, the oil-return tube adds filtered shortening back into the frypots to streamline operation. Overall, this unit measures 31 inches wide by 30 13/100 inches deep by 47 1/4 inches tall and is mounted on four 6-inch casters that provide smooth mobility when repositioning is needed.
