Vulcan 1VK65CF Description
The Vulcan 1VK65CF gas fryer features a 191/2-inch-wide by 14-inch-deep fry tank that holds 70 pounds of oil and features the KleenScreen PLUS® filtration system to enhance efficiency. This filtration system features a two-side stainless steel mesh filter that creates a filter area of 270 square inches, while the 8-gallon-per-minute motor and pump are activated with the simple push of a button. To assist with cooking while ensuring employee safety, this tank can fit two 91/4-inch-wide by 131/4-inch-deep by 6-inch-high baskets, both of which sport plastic handles to reduce the risk of heat transferring to employee hands. Its temperature can be set between 200 and 390 degrees Fahrenheit using the computer controls, which also feature three fat melting modes and ten menu timers that display product names and cook times; these can be programmed offline using the USB interface.
Overall, the Vulcan 1VK65CF fryer outputs 80,000 BTUs, though it saves energy with a SoftStart™ ignition system, which slowly heats oil using 35,000 BTUs per hour, and FivePass™ heat transfer system that yields 78 percent thermal efficiency. This gas fryer measures 21 inches wide by 301/8 inches deep 471/8 inches high and is constructed of durable, corrosion-resistant stainless steel. For adept cleaning after intensive use, employees can utilize its 11/4-inch full-port ball drain valve, tank brush, and clean-out rod. Set on four 6-inch adjustable casters, it can be maneuvered on irregular or smooth surfaces, and two of these casters lock the unit in place when stabilization is needed.
