Vulcan 2VK45CF Gas Fryer - (2) 50 Lb Vats, Floor Model, Natural Gas

Sized to create a 36 1/4-inch working height, the Vulcan 2VK45CF freestanding commercial gas fryer measures 31 inches wide by 30 13/100 inches deep by 47 1/4 inches tall. Its two 50-pound-capacity frypots enable users to fry products with varying cooking requirement simultaneously without flavor transfer. Both fryers come with fryer baskets that contain contents as they're lowered in the vats, fried, and removed from the oil; for user safety, the baskets' handles are plastic coated. Designed to survive high-volume back-of-house use, this unit is constructed of durable, rust- and corrosion-resistant stainless steel. Its base is equipped with four 6-inch casters that provide smooth mobility, and two of these casters can be locked for stability during use.
Both frypots have independent computer controls that enable operators to set temperatures from 200 to 390 degrees Fahrenheit, initiate melt modes, and program as many as 10 menu timers. Digital displays provide accurate readouts so users can ensure fryers are set to the correct modes. To enhance this natural-gas-powered unit's energy efficiency, its FivePass® heat transfer system uniformly disperses heat throughout the oil, yielding 78 percent thermal efficiency and 66 percent cooking efficiency. When oil is initially heated, the SoftStart® ignition system quickly warms it to the desired temperature. Once the set temperature is reached, the idle temperature mode maintains the heat by outputting only 4,251 BTUs per hour.
To extend oil life and enhance its quality, the Vulcan 2VK45CF high-efficiency fryer's KleenScreen PLUS® filtration system can be activated with the push of a button. This system's motor and pump circulate oil at 8 gallons per minute, and 70 pounds of oil can be emptied into the stainless steel filter pan. To eliminate hands-on tasks, the oil-return tube adds filtered oil back in the frypots once the filter drawer is closed.
