Vulcan 3VK65CF Gas Fryer - (3) 70 lb Vats, Floor Model, Liquid Propane

The Vulcan 3VK65CF PowerFry5™ commercial gas fryer's three 70-pound-capacity frypots are equipped with independent computer controls that enable operators to set each frypot's temperature, timer, and melt mode to properly fry different products in each vat. As many as 10 menu items can be programmed directly into the unit or offline to streamline unit setup for commonly cooked items, and the digital display provides a readout of the cook time and item name. To quickly reach set temperatures between 200 and 390 degrees Fahrenheit, the SoftStart™ ignition system outputs 40,000 BTUs per hour; when the frypot reaches the set temperature, the idle temperature setting maintains heat by outputting just 4,802 BTUs per hour to save energy. For enhanced thermal and cooking efficiency, its FivePass™ heat transfer system evenly disperses heat throughout the oil.

This 63-inch-wide by 30¹⁄₈-inch-deep by 47¹⁄₈-inch-tall fryer creates a 36¹⁄₄-inch working height for staff comfort during long work periods. The included fryer baskets simplify lowering and lifting breaded meats or vegetables, while their handles are coated in plastic to reduce heat transfer and protect hands. For long-term durability and rust, dent, and scratch resistance, the frypots, fryer baskets, and cabinets are constructed of stainless steel. When the fryer needs to be repositioned for maintenance or cleaning, it's simple to move short distances because it's fitted with four 6-inch casters—two of which can be locked.

The Vulcan 3VK65CF commercial gas fryer's base includes a KleenScreen PLUS® filtration system on an accessible pull-out drawer. A filtration cycle can be activated with the push of a button, and the motor and pump will circulate shortening at 8 gallons per minute. The stainless steel mesh screen filters from two sides to establish a 350-square-inch filtration area, and as much as 110 pounds of oil can be expelled into the seamless, lightweight stainless steel filtration pan. The oil-return tube can direct filtered oil back to the frypots when the oil is fully filtered and the filter drawer is closed.
