Vulcan 1VK45D Gas Fryer - (1) 50 Lb Vat, Floor Model, Liquid Propane
Overview
Description
The Vulcan 1VK45D fryer operates with one vat using liquid propane. While this freestanding fryer produces 70,000 BTUs an hour, it features an idle mode that maintains the set temperature with a 4,251 BTU hourly rate. For additional energy preservation, its SoftStart® ignition lengthens oil life by slowly warming oil at startup, preventing scorching and putting out 35,000 BTUs per hour. This unit has a 14-inch-wide by 14-inch-deep oil tank that can hold 50 pounds of oil. Operators can utilize this fryer's 6 1/2-inch-wide by 13 1/4-inch-deep by 6-inch-high twin baskets that feature integrated plastic handles for efficient, safe cooking. It maintains a set temperature between 200 and 390 degrees Fahrenheit and is operated with a solid-state digital control that features three melt cycles.
Overall, this heavy-duty Vulcan 1VK45D gas fryer measures 15 1/2 inches wide by 30 1/8 inches deep by 47 1/8 inches high. Its cabinet and fry tank are constructed of stainless steel for reliable durability in aggressive settings in addition to corrosion resistance. For effortless oil dispersal and removal, it has a 1 1/4-inch drain valve, and for precise sanitation, it includes a tank brush and clean-out rod. To ease transportation on flat or irregular floor surfaces, it sits on a set of four 6-inch casters for operation without being moved or jostled because two of these casters sport locks.
