Vulcan 1VK65DF Gas Fryer - (1) 70 lb Vat, Floor Model, Natural Gas

The Vulcan 1VK65DF gas fryer promotes high-volume production while minimizing operational costs. While it outputs 80,000 BTUs overall, it also sports an electronic SoftStart™ ignition that slowly warms oil upon startup to prevent burning and scorching, extending oil life. Its FivePass™ heat transfer system produces 78 percent thermal efficiency and 68 percent cooking efficiency. It maintains set temperatures between 200 and 390 degrees Fahrenheit and comes with an integrated solid-state digital control system. This system features three possible melt cycles in addition to two countdown timers and an automatic boil-out mode.

The Vulcan 1VK65DF gas fryer vat measures 21 inches wide by 30¹/₈ inches deep by 47¹/₈ inches high. Its 19¹/₂-inch wide by 14-inch-deep fry tank accommodates 70 pounds of oil, and with KleenScreen PLUS® filtration, the oil maintains optimal conditions for longer periods to reduce refill costs. This unit's cabinet and tank are made of stainless steel for the durability needed to withstand intense use, rust, and corrosion over time. To ease cleaning processes, it has a 1¹/₄-inch full-port ball drain valve, tank brush, and clean-out rod.
