Vulcan 4TR45DF Description
To streamline operation and reduce manual tasks, the Vulcan 4TR45DF fryer features a digital control system with digital display to ease temperature monitoring. Staff can also use the two countdown timers to account for compensating time. Temperatures are displayed in either Celsius or Fahrenheit through the digital thermostat and can be set between 200 and 390 degrees Fahrenheit. So users can fry with solid shortenings, this system has three melt modes; it also features an auto boil-out mode to ease the removal of the boil-out solution after cleaning. For enhanced filtration, this fryer has a KleenScreen PLUS® system, trapping fine debris 40 to 60 times smaller than paper filters. Its motor and pump can be engaged with a one-touch push button switch to effectively circulate oil at 8 gallons per minute, while its stainless steel mesh screen filters the oil from two sides. After activating the drain valve interlock switch to disconnect the gas channel, staff can empty 70 pounds of oil into the stainless steel filter pan. A 6-foot, high-temperature discard hose streamlines oil removal.
For fast heat recovery after new items are added to the vat, this fryer features a ThreePass™ heat transfer system. The unit can be activated using the electronic ignition, and to reduce operation costs, the SoftStart™ system heats the oil gradually at 35,000 BTUs per frypot. Loose sediments are captured in the fryer's "V"-shaped cold zone to minimize the risk of burning and maintain the oil quality. For further energy conservation, its idle temperature mode only uses 4,318 BTU during slow periods. A high-limit shut-off system automatically caps the temperature threshold for safety and fire prevention.
Ideal for high-volume frying, the Vulcan 4TR45DF gas fryer has a large base cabinet with four fry tanks constructed of durable stainless steel. Each tank can hold 45 to 50 pounds of frying compound, and to remove oil for cleaning, it features a 11⁄4-inch full-port, ball-type drain valve. An included tank brush and clean-out rod further ease cleaning. The unit comes with eight fry baskets to keep breaded shrimp, chicken, and fries contained as they're transferred to and from the frying compound; these baskets have plastic-coated handles to protect user hands from burns. So employees can comfortably access the fryer, this 62-inch-wide by 301⁄8-inch-deep by 471⁄8-inch-high unit establishes a 361⁄4-inch working height. It's mounted on four adjustable 6-inch swivel casters to enable smooth transportation as needed, and two of these casters have locks for fixed placement during use.
