Vulcan 1VK65A Gas Fryer - (1) 70 Lb Vat, Floor Model, Liquid Propane

Great for conserving energy during operation, the Vulcan 1VK65A gas fryer outputs 80,000 BTUs while utilizing its FivePass® heat transfer system that yields 78 percent thermal efficiency and 68 percent cooking efficiency. Additionally, this fryer features SoftStart® ignition that extends oil life by slowly warming oil during initial startup, preventing burning or scorching. Once the set temperature is reached, the idle setting maintains it using just 4,802 BTUs per hour. This unit can be set between 200 and 390 degrees Fahrenheit and is controlled with solid-state analog knob controls, which also feature user-selectable fat-melt modes. Because it runs on liquid propane, it heats quicker than natural gas alternatives.
Overall, the Vulcan 1VK65A gas fryer measures 21 inches wide by 30 1/8 inches high by 47 1/8 inches deep with an integrated 19 1/2-inch-wide by 14-inch-deep fry tank capable of holding 70 pounds of oil. Users can utilize the twin fry baskets that sport plastic-coated handles, easing removal from or insertion to oil by minimizing heat transfer to palms. Made of stainless steel, it's durable and corrosion resistant; it also includes a 1 1/4-inch full port drain valve, tank brush, and clean-out rod to ease maintenance. For maneuverability, it sits on a set of four 6-inch casters, two of which can be locked in place when needed.
