If your commercial kitchen requires extensive deep-frying while aiming to save on operational costs, investing in a quad fryer system with filtration like the Vulcan 4VK45AF PowerFry5™ Fryer is highly recommended. These Commercial Deep Fryers are not only ENERGYSTAR® qualified but also among the most efficient fryers available in the market. Vulcan offers a range of Floor Model Gas Fryers that are designed to cater to various needs and preferences. Unlike traditional gas-heated deep fryers that use multiple burners with heat exchange tubes to evenly distribute heat to the oil, Vulcan's FivePass™ heat transfer technology utilizes a single large burner that branches off into two symmetrical heat tubes with multiple bends. This innovative design maximizes heat transfer before it is expelled from the fryer, resulting in a thermal efficiency of 78% and cooking efficiency of 68%, surpassing other fryers in the market. During idle periods, this fryer consumes only 4,251 BTU/hr of gas to maintain the cooking temperature. The SoftStart™ ignition system minimizes thermal shock to the oil during startup by gradually applying heat, thereby prolonging the oil's lifespan. Controlling the temperature of this fryer is simple with a solid stat analog knob located behind the door, allowing for temperature adjustment between 200°F and 390°F. The fryer also features electronic ignition and fat melt modes for user convenience. The KleenScreen PLUS® filtration system of this fryer utilizes a stainless steel mesh to remove most particles, while a filter vessel made from 18 gauge stainless steel protects the filtration system. Optional KleenScreen PLUS® filter envelopes can be ordered for filtering particles down to .5 microns. The filtration process is quick, thanks to a ½ HP pump motor that achieves a rate of 8 GPM. Cleaning and maintenance of the fryer are hassle-free due to the stainless steel construction of the cabinet and fry tank. The fryer comes with adjustable 6" casters for easy movement during cleaning and maintenance. It also includes a clean-out rod, twin fry baskets with plastic coated handles, and a tank brush. The fryer is equipped with a NEMA 5-15P cord and plug for connection to a 120-volt outlet, and it requires a total gas input of 280,000 BTU/hr. Overall, the PowerFry5™ Fryer offers high efficiency, durability, and user-friendly features, making it an excellent investment for
