Vulcan 1TR85C Description
As part of the PowerFry3™ series, the Vulcan 1TR85C commercial gas fryer is ideal for medium- to high-volume operations because it operates with the ThreePass™ heat transfer system. This mechanism uses heat exchange tubes to transfer heat from the burners to the cooking oil for quick and efficient frying. When initially warming up, its SoftStart™ mechanism slowly raises oil temperature, minimizing the risk of scorching oil while outputting 45,000 BTUs per hour to conserve energy. At a maximum, this fryer only outputs 5,575 BTUs per hour to maintain idle temperatures. By using the programmable computer controls, operators can set 10 menu timers and modify oil temperatures from 200 to 390 degrees Fahrenheit. The digital display provides a readout of menu items, cook times, and temperatures so staff can ensure the correct setting has been initiated. To accommodate solid shortening, this control system features three melt modes.
The Vulcan 1TR85C floor model fryer features a 191⁄2-inch-wide by 181⁄4-inch-deep frypot that accommodates 90 pounds of oil—great for frying chicken, fish, okra, pickles, and more. Included twin fryer baskets secure foods in place as they're cooked, and to enhance user safety when lifting the baskets from hot oil, these pieces feature plastic-coated handles that minimize heat transfer. To simplify cleaning, this unit is built with a 11⁄4-inch port ball-type drain valve and includes a tank brush and clean-out rod. For lasting durability and corrosion resistance, the cabinet and fry tank are made of stainless steel. Its 21-inch-wide by 343⁄8-inch-deep by 471⁄8-inch-tall body establishes a comfortable 361⁄4-inch working height. Because it's fitted with four 6-inch casters, it can be moved out of the way when the floor requires cleaning; two of these casters can be locked to ensure the unit remains stable during use.
