Vulcan 3TR45DF Description
The Vulcan 3TR45DF gas fryer measures 461/2 inches wide by 301/8 inches deep by 471/4 inches high and sits on a set of four 6-inch casters. It features three 14-inch-wide by 14-inch-deep fry tanks and cabinets made of stainless steel to withstand aggressive settings with enhanced durability and corrosion resistance. This three-battery unit's vats each hold 45 to 50 pounds of oil.
This unit maintains even heating with its ThreePass™ heat transfer system, which yields 72 percent thermal efficiency and 60.9 percent cooking efficiency. It outputs 210,000 BTU total, but its SoftStart™ electronic ignition lowers output to 105,000 BTU per hour during startup to conserve energy and prevent scorching. To increase oil life, its KleenScreen PLUS® filtration system circulates oil at 8 gallons per minute through its stainless steel mesh screen. For employee safety, its interlock switch turns off the gas burners while filtering the oil.
With its digital controls, operators can adjust temperatures from 200 to 390 degrees Fahrenheit. To streamline cleaning, the Vulcan 3TR45DF gas fryer features a 11/4-inch port ball type drain valve for emptying oil quickly and without hassle. For efficient cleaning after use, it includes a tank brush, auto boil-out mode, and clean-out rod.
