Vulcan 4TR65AF Gas Fryer - (4) 70 Lb Vats, Floor Model, Liquid Propane
Overview
Description
The Vulcan 4TR65AF PowerFry3® gas fryer is built with four 70-pound-capacity frypots to maximize throughput and streamline frying multiple foods at once. Each vat comes with twin fryer baskets to lower contents into the tanks and lift them from the hot oil; for user safety, the baskets' handles are coated with plastic. Staff can independently adjust the vats' controls using the solid-state analog knobs; each frypot's temperature can be set from 200 to 390 degrees Fahrenheit, and users can select a fat-melt mode when using solid shortening. This LP-gas-powered unit features a ThreePass® heat transfer mechanism that effectively distributes heat throughout oil, yielding 60 percent cooking efficiency and 72 percent thermal efficiency in medium- and high-volume operations. To save energy while quickly heating oil upon startup, the SoftStart® ignition system outputs only 40,000 BTUs per hour, or half the unit's maximum hourly BTU output. The idle temperature setting can maintain set temperatures while outputting only 5,083 BTUs per hour.
This 84-inch-wide by 30 1/8-inch-deep by 47 1/4-inch-tall fryer establishes a comfortable 36 1/4-inch working height and is positioned on four 6-inch casters that provide smooth mobility for cleaning or maintenance. For stability during use, two of the casters can be locked. To endure the rigors of extensive back-of-house use, its vats and cabinet are made of durable, rust-resistant stainless steel.
To extend oil life, users can activate the Vulcan 4TR65AF commercial fryer's integrated KleenScreen PLUS® filtration system with the push of a button. While its pump and motor circulate hot oil at 8 gallons per minute, its stainless steel mesh filter screen catches debris from two sides, establishing a filtration area as large as 350 square inches. For enhanced safety, the drain interlock switch automatically turns off the gas burners as oil drains. The seamless stainless steel filtration pan accommodates 110 pounds and can be removed and emptied when desired. To eliminate manual tasks, the oil-return tube directs filtered shortening back to the frypots when the filtration drawer is closed.
