Vulcan 4TR85AF Gas Fryer - (4) 90 lb Vats, Floor Model, Natural Gas
Powered by natural gas, the Vulcan 4TR85AF commercial fryer outputs 360,000 BTUs per hour, or 90,000 BTUs per hour for each of its four frypots. To minimize energy consumption, this unit is part of the PowerFry3? series, which features a ThreePass? heat transfer system that evenly distributes heat throughout oil, yielding 72 percent thermal efficiency and 60 percent cooking efficiency. Once staff sets temperatures from 200 to 390 degrees Fahrenheit with the solid-state analog knob controls, the SoftStart? ignition system quickly heats oil by outputting 45,000 BTUs per hour. To maintain the set temperature, the idle temperature settings outputs only 5,575 BTUs per hour.
To extend oil life, operators can initiate the KleenScreen PLUS? filtration system with the push of a button. This system is located in the unit's base on a pull-out drawer for accessibility, and it includes a seamless stainless steel pan that can hold 110 pounds of oil. Once a filtration cycle is activated, the drain interlock valve turns off the gas burners as oil drains. The pump and motor circulate oil at 8 gallons per minute, and the stainless steel mesh filter screen filters out particulates from two sides, establishing a filtration area between 270 and 350 square inches. To add filtered oil back to the vats, users can simply close the filtration drawer and the oil-return tube will seal itself.
The Vulcan 4TR85AF high-efficiency gas commercial fryer is a four-battery, 84-inch-wide by 301?8-inch-deep by 471?4-inch-tall freestanding unit that sits on four 6-inch casters for smooth mobility during cleaning or servicing; two of these casters can be locked in place during use. For user comfort, it has a 361?4-inch working height, and each frypot comes with two stainless steel fryer baskets featuring plastic-coated handles to minimize heat transfer. The fry tanks and cabinet are made of stainless steel?durable, scratch-, dent-, and rust-resistant metal that matches other back-of-house equipment and is simple to wipe clean.
