The Vulcan 1TR45D PowerFry3™ Fryer is the top choice for commercial kitchens in need of a reliable and efficient single fryer that can hold 45-50 lbs of oil. This fryer is not only ENERGYSTAR® qualified, but it is also one of the most energy-efficient options available on the market.
Unlike other commercial deep fryers that have multiple burners in separate heat exchange tubes to evenly heat the oil, the Vulcan 1TR45D uses a ThreePass™ heat transfer system. This system utilizes a single burner chamber that splits off into two heat exchange tubes, which double over themselves to apply more heat to the oil while using less gas. With a cooking efficiency of 60% and a thermal efficiency of 72%, this fryer only uses 4,318 BTU/hr to maintain its cooking temperature when idle. During startup, the SoftStart™ ignition system uses 35,000 BTU/hr, which helps extend the life of the frying oil.
The fryer features a digital display that provides accurate temperature control between 200°F to 390°F, allowing for fast recovery. It also has two countdown timers that can be used for cooking with compensating time or actual time. Additionally, the fryer has three melt modes, an auto-boil-out mode, and electronic ignition, making it easy to use.
Designed to withstand the demands of daily commercial use, this fryer has a stainless steel cabinet and fry tank. It comes with adjustable 6" casters for easy movement during cleaning and maintenance. The fryer also includes a clean-out rod, twin fry baskets with plastic coated handles, and a tank brush.
The total gas input of this fryer is 70,000 BTU/hr, and it comes with a NEMA 5-15P cord and plug to connect it to a 120v outlet.
In summary, the Vulcan 1TR45D PowerFry3™ Fryer is a high-efficiency, reliable, and energy-efficient option for commercial kitchens. It offers precise temperature control, easy-to-use features, and a durable construction.
