Pitco SSH55-2FD Gas Fryer - (2) 50 lb Vats, Floor Model, LP

The Pitco SSH55-2FD gas fryer is equipped with a patented self-cleaning burner that minimizes carbon buildup, reducing maintenance requirements and ensuring consistent performance. This floor model fryer operates on LP gas and is part of the Solstice Supreme™ series, featuring two full-size frypots with a 40 to 50 pound oil capacity per vat, totaling 100 pounds. The solid-state controls provide accurate temperature adjustments, while the integrated boil-out and melt cycle assist with oil breakdown and preparation. A matchless ignition system eliminates the need for an open flame by automatically lighting the pilot when the fryer is powered on. The downdraft protection system helps maintain burner efficiency, while a tube rack collects food particles and directs debris into a designated cool zone to preserve oil quality.

The under-fryer filtration drawer system in the Pitco SSH55-2FD gas fryer streamlines oil removal and circulation, reducing downtime between frying cycles. A 1 1⁄4-inch full-port drain valve facilitates rapid oil disposal, while the rear oil return system ensures that the frypot bottom is cleared of debris before oil is recirculated. The fryer includes a DVI drain valve interlock system that prevents overheating by shutting off the heat when the valve is open. Manual gas shutoffs positioned at the front provide easy servicing, and an integrated flue deflector directs heat away from the work area. Built with a stainless steel tank, front, and sides, the fryer is durable enough for heavy-duty commercial use. It stands on 10-inch adjustable legs for added stability and convenient cleaning access. A removable basket hanger enables tool-free cleaning, and the stainless steel filter pan is fitted with rear wheels for smooth maneuverability.
