If your commercial kitchen requires extensive deep-frying while aiming to save on operational costs, investing in a two-fryer system with filtration like the Vulcan 2VK45DF PowerFry5™ Fryer is highly recommended. These Commercial Deep Fryers are not only ENERGYSTAR® qualified, but they are also among the most efficient fryers available on the market. Vulcan's Floor Model Gas Fryers are known for their reliability and come with a range of features that make operation simple. Vulcan's FivePass™ heat transfer system is a game-changer. Unlike other fryers that have multiple straight heat exchange tubes with individual burners, Vulcan's design uses a single large burner connected to heat exchange tubes that bend back and forth, providing more surface area for effective heat transfer to the oil. This design reduces the amount of gas required to heat the oil efficiently. The innovative burner and heat exchange system result in a fryer with 78% thermal efficiency and 68% cooking efficiency, surpassing other fryers on the market. When idle, this fryer only consumes 4,251 BTU/hr of gas to maintain the cooking temperature. The SoftStart™ ignition system uses 35,000 BTU/hr of gas to gradually apply heat to the oil at startup, reducing thermal shock and prolonging the oil's life. This fryer features a digital display for accurate temperature control ranging from 200°F to 390°F, allowing for fast recovery. It also offers two countdown timers for timed cooking, with the option for compensating time or actual time. The fryer is extremely user-friendly, thanks to its auto boil-out mode, three melt modes, and electronic ignition. The KleenScreen PLUS® included in this fryer system has a stainless steel mesh filter that removes larger particles. However, to filter out particles as small as .5 microns, the optional KleenScreen PLUS® filter envelopes must be ordered. The filtration system is housed in a seamless 18-gauge stainless steel filter vessel. A ½ HP pump moves oil at 8 GPM, minimizing filtration time. The cabinet and fry tank of this fryer are made from stainless steel for durability and easy maintenance. The fryer comes with adjustable 6" casters, a clean-out rod, tank brush, and twin fry baskets with plastic-coated handles. This fryer operates on 120v power and comes with a NEMA 5-15P cord and plug.
