Fryers are one of the best investments any food service business can make. You don’t only have to use them to make the typical fries, chicken, or fish. Anything is possible with a little creativity. Your customers will not only love the typical foods that are normally fried, but also anything from pickles, macaroni and cheese, and even ice cream. Don’t know what kind of fryer will best suit your needs? Then give us a call, our sales staff will fit you with the ideal fryer for your needs.

One popular option is the Vucan 4TR45DF, it was designed with your needs in mind. It is easy to use, clean, and will provide you with large amounts of fried goodies to serve your customers. The entire cabinet and fry tank are both constructed of stainless steel. As long as you remember to maintain it, it will remain rust and corrosion free. The electronic, matchless ignition system uses 35,000 BTU/Hr. to extend oil life during start up and an idle rate of 4,318 BTU/Hr. The digital knob control allows you to control temperatures starting at a range of 200 to 390 degrees Fahrenheit with a digital display. It includes three melt modes, an auto boil-out mode, and two count down timers. These abilities greatly improve the overall performance of the unit and will provide it with speedy recovery time. Although, if something goes wrong and the temperatures get to high a hi-limit shut off valve will activate. This will shut off the gas connection and standing pilot. This is an exceptionally important feature to have in a fryer for the safety of your employees.

The fry tank uses a ThreePass transfer system. This unique configuration is more efficient than the standard fryer. This is because the system of heat exchange that takes place between the burners and the oil has more of a heat transfer surface area. It yields 60.9% of cooking efficiency and 72″ thermal efficiency. The oil capacity of each fry tank is 45 to 50 pounds for a total of 150 to 200 pounds. This includes four sets of twin fry baskets with plastic coated handles. At the bottom is a V shaped cold zone. A fryer that has a V shaped cold zone will work especially well if you’re looking to fry foods that come frozen. It will capture any crumbs or other debris and keep them from burning which could have a negative effect on the taste of your food. Another perk of a V shaped cold zone is how easy it is to clean and the KleenScreen filtration system will also remove any unwanted particles from the oil. However, once it is time to replace your oil, a 1-1/4″ full port drain valve will easily drain everything out for you. The gas burners will automatically turn off when you are draining oil due to the drain valve interlock switch. The filter features a motor and pump circulates the frying compounds at a rate of 8 gallons a minute with the use of 1/3 H.P. This pump is activated by a one touch switch. The filter is constructed of drawn (seamless) 18 gauge stainless-steel. The paperless stainless-steel filter screen, filters from two sides of the filter area which equals to 270 square inches.
