Vulcan 4VK85AF Gas Fryer - (4) 90 Lb Vats, Floor Model, Natural Gas

A four-battery unit, the 4VK85AF gas fryer can hold 85 to 90 pounds of oil per frypot. For fluid, quick heating while conserving energy, its SoftStart® ignition system outputs 35,000 BTU per hour, and when the fryer reaches desired temperatures, it can maintain the heat with just 6,298 BTUs when idle. Its FivePass® heat transference system uniformly distributes heat to prevent scalding. This high-efficiency fryer is integrated with KleenScreen Plus® filtration to extend oil life and reduce premature refilling. Its 1/3-horsepower motor and pump work in tandem to circulate frying compound at 8 gallons per minute; for ample screening, its stainless steel filtration mesh screen covers 270 and 350 square inches.

This fryer is powered by natural gas and operated with independent solid-state analog controls that are located behind the door of each cabinet. Temperatures can be adjusted between 200 and 390 degrees Fahrenheit, and this unit has user-selectable fat melt modes to provide additional flexibility. Should it exceed safe temperatures, its hi-limit shut-off cuts off the burners.

The Vulcan 4VK85AF gas fryer measures 84 inches wide by 34 3/8inches deep by 47 1/4 inches high. Its fry tank and cabinet are constructed of durable stainless steel, which is ideal for high-intensity back-of-house kitchens. Each frypot includes metal twin baskets that feature plastic-coated handles to reduce heat transfer to employees' palms, and to maneuver this heavy-duty unit as needed, it sits on four 6-inch casters. For precise cleaning, a tank brush and clean-out rod are included.
