Vulcan VFRY18F Gas Fryer - (1) 50 lb Vat, Floor Model, Liquid Propane

The Vulcan VFRY18F V-Series fryer features one vat that can hold 45 to 50 pounds of oil. Suitable for busy kitchens, its front, front top ledge, sides, tank, base, and stub back are constructed of heavy-duty stainless steel; it's mounted on 6-inch adjustable legs. Users can move breaded goods to and from the fry vat using the provided twin fryer baskets, which have plastic-coated handles to decrease staff burn risks. For convenient access, the fry tank has a 36-inch working height. To ease cleaning, this 18-inch-wide by 40-inch-deep by 48³/₈-inch-high unit features a 1¹⁄₄-inch port ball-type drain valve and an integrated Boil Out Bypass™ system to streamline oil and boil-out solution removal.

For optimized heat control, the Vulcan VFRY18F LP gas fryer has a solid-state analog control knob that can be accessed through the base cabinet. Its electronic ignition system features SoftStart™ technology to extend oil life while using less BTUs during startup. A ThreePass™ heat transfer system evenly distributes temperatures, and to reduce overheating risks, it has a hi-limit shutoff. An integrated filtration system further maintains oil quality using a push-button-activated motor and pump that circulate oil at 8 gallons per minute. Waste is collected in the filter pan, which is constructed of rust-resistant 18-gauge stainless steel; before draining the pan, users should engage the drain valve interlock switch to disconnect the gas from the burner.
