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 343/8inches deep by 471/4 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.
