Vulcan 2VK65CF Gas Fryer - (2) 70 Lb Vats, Floor Model, Natural Gas

Designed with programmable computer controls, the Vulcan 2VK65CF gas fryer features a digital character display, ten menu timers, and offline menu programming that can be uploaded through a USB port. Its three melt modes slowly heat the fryer and can melt thicker substances, such as solid shortening. This unit operates at temperatures between 200 to 390 degrees Fahrenheit and is built with two vats that can hold 65 to 70 pounds each. Its twin fry baskets' handles are coated in plastic to minimize heat transfer and efficiently cook large quantities of chicken, potatoes, and onion rings. Heat can be evenly distributed through the oil with the FivePass® heat transfer system, which also provides a fast recovery after cold or frozen foods are dropped in the vats.

For optimal oil heat, the Vulcan 2VK65CF PowerFry5® SoftStart® ignition system first operates at 70,000 BTU, gradually increasing to 160,000 BTU for operation. For energy efficiency during slow periods, it has an idle rate of 9,604 BTUs. The cold zone is V-shaped, collecting sediments at the bottom without burning them and affecting the oil's taste. This 31-inch-wide by 30 1/8-inch-deep by 47 1/8-inch-high model is made of stainless steel to withstand rigorous use. It has a hi-limit shut off to stop gas intake when oil gets too hot, reducing the risk of fires. For comfortable use, it sits at a 36 1/4-inch working height. To filter out sediment and debris, it uses a Kleenscreen Plus® filtration system, which provides a stainless steel mesh filter screen that filters from two sides and an 18-gauge stainless steel filter pan. Operators can move this piece for cleaning or maintenance because it sits on four 6-inch castersa€”two of which are lockable for stationary use. This freestanding model comes with a clean-out rod and a tank brush to ease thorough cleaning.
