The 2VK45AF PowerFry5™ Fryer from Vulcan is a highly reliable and energy-efficient dual fryer system designed for commercial kitchens that do a lot of deep-frying. Each fry tank can hold 45-50 lbs of oil, making it perfect for high-volume frying. This fryer is ENERGYSTAR® qualified and is considered one of the most efficient models available. Unlike traditional gas-fired deep fryers, the 2VK45AF PowerFry5™ Fryer utilizes Vulcan's FivePass™ heat transfer system. This system uses a single large burner and two sets of heat exchange tubes with multiple bends to evenly transfer heat to the oil over five passes. This results in a cooking efficiency of 68% and a thermal efficiency of 78%, making it much more efficient than other fryers on the market. Additionally, this fryer features a SoftStart™ ignition system that gradually heats the oil without breaking it down, extending its lifespan. To maintain the quality of the oil, the 2VK45AF PowerFry5™ Fryer is equipped with the KleenScreen PLUS® filtration system. This system uses a stainless steel mesh filter to remove particles as small as 0.5 microns. The filtration system is housed in an 18 gauge stainless steel filter vessel, and oil is circulated at a rate of 8 GPM by a ½ HP pump motor for quick and efficient filtration. The fry tank and cabinet of the 2VK45AF PowerFry5™ Fryer are made from durable stainless steel, ensuring its longevity and ability to withstand daily use. The fryer also features adjustable 6" casters for easy mobility and cleaning. It comes with twin fry baskets with plastic coated handles, a tank brush, and a clean-out rod for convenience. This fryer requires a 120 volt outlet and 140,000 BTU/hr of gas input. It is equipped with a solid state analog knob control for temperature adjustment between 200°F and 390°F, as well as electronic ignition and fat melt modes for ease of use. Overall, the 2VK45AF PowerFry5™ Fryer from Vulcan is a reliable, energy-efficient, and high-performing fryer system that is perfect for commercial kitchens that do a lot of deep-frying.
