Vulcan VFRY18 Gas Fryer - (1) 50 lb Vat, Floor Model, Liquid Propane

For small kitchens with few frying requirements, the Vulcan VFRY18 V-Series fryer measures 18 inches wide by 40 inches deep by 48³/₈ inches high and has one fry tank with a 50-pound oil capacity. Its front, front top ledge, sides, tank, base, and stub back are constructed of stainless steel for durability and rust resistance, and to elevate its base from the floor, it's mounted on 6-inch legs. So users can access the vat comfortably, it has a 36-inch working height. Users can transport product to and from the frying compound using the twin set of fry baskets, which have plastic-coated handles to ease carrying and reduce burn risk.

To provide even heating while conserving energy, the Vulcan VFRY18 LP gas fryer operates with a ThreePass™ heat transfer system. Its electronic, SoftStart™ ignition heats oil gradually at startup while reducing BTU usage. Operators can adjust heat output with the solid-state analog control knob6 located inside the cabinet, and to prevent overheating, this system has a hi-limit shutoff feature that disables the unit when temperatures reach 465 degrees Fahrenheit. For efficient cleaning after service, the unit is equipped with a Boil Out Bypass™ setting and a 1¹⁄₄-inch port ball-type drain valve. Before beginning the draining process, users should engage the drain valve interlock switch to disconnect the gas channel from the burner.
