Vulcan 1VK65AF Gas Fryer - (1) 70 Lb Vat, Floor Model, Natural Gas

For frying breaded chicken breasts, legs, and wings, the Vulcan 1VK65AF gas fryer features a 19 1/2-inch-wide by 14-inch-deep frypot and includes two 9 1/4-inch-wide by 13 1/4-inch-deep by 6-inch-high fry baskets. This frypot can hold 70 pounds of oil, and because of the integrated KreenScreen PLUS® filtration, oil quality is extended over time. This fryer unit maintains temperatures between 200 and 390 degrees Fahrenheit and is operated with solid-state analog controls that feature user-selected melt cycles, ensuring heating elements don't overheat during long periods of operation.
While this fryer outputs 80,000 BTUs per hour, it sports a FivePass® heat transfer system that promotes even heating for efficient, high-quality cooking. Its SoftStart® ignition system slowly warms oil at startup, extending the life over frequent use with lower BTU output and energy use. Once it reaches the set temperature, it features a mode that maintains the temperature while outputting just 4,802 BTUs per hour.
The Vulcan 1VK65AF gas fryer measures 21 inches wide by 30 1/8 inches deep by 47 1/8 inches high and is made of stainless steel for additional durability and corrosion resistance. Great for thriving in greasy environments, this unit integrates a 1 1/4-inch full-port ball type drain valve to quickly remove dirty oil; it also features a tank brush and clean-out rod to aid in the cleaning process. To maneuver this fryer with ease, it stands on a set of four 6-inch casters, two of which lock to stabilize the unit during use.
