Vulcan 1VK85C Gas Fryer - (1) 90 Lb Vat, Floor Model, Natural Gas

The Vulcan 1VK85C natural gas fryer features a single 19 1/2-inch-wide by 18 1/4-inch-deep stainless steel fry tank and base cabinet. Its tank can hold as much as 85 to 90 pounds of oil, and to streamline cleaning, it has a 1 1/4-inch full-port, ball-type drain valve, tank brush, and clean-out rod. Twin fryer baskets effectively contain breaded goods as they're submerged and removed from oil, and to protect users from burns, the handles are coated in plastic. So users can reach the baskets comfortably, this unit has a 36 1/4-inch working height. To ease transportation for cleaning and maintenance, it's mounted on four adjustable 6-inch swivel casters, which have two locks to ensure stability. Overall, this freestanding unit measures 21 inches wide by 34 3/8 inches deep by 47 1/8 inches high.
To heat the oil thoroughly and minimize recovery time between frying, this unit operates with a FivePass® heat transfer system. It also features an electronic ignition system with SoftStart® technology that heats the oil with 35,000 BTUs to extend oil life. The "V"-shaped cold zone traps loose sediment to keep it from burning, which could otherwise impact oil color and taste. For energy conservation, this fryer features an idle temperature mode that uses only 6,298 BTU to maintain cooking temperature. It also has a high-limit shut off, which caps the maximum temperature to reduce fire and burn risks.
To streamline service, the Vulcan 1VK85C fryer has programmable computer controls that can be set and modified using the USB interface. Users can program as many as 10 menu timers and shake reminders for ease of monitoring; for flexibility, staff can cook with either actual or compensating time, which accounts for temperature fluctuations. The digital thermostat displays temperatures in either Celsius or Fahrenheit, with a temperature range of 200 to 390 degrees Fahrenheit. So operators can use solid compounds and shortening, this control system features three melt modes.
