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

The Vulcan VFRY18 natural gas fryer operates with a ThreePass™ heat transfer system to heat oil evenly while conserving energy. It features an electronic ignition system built with SoftStart™ technology to warm oil slowly at startup while lowering BTU output. Temperatures can be adjusted through the solid state analog controls located inside the cabinet door, and to reduce the risk of the unit overheating, this system has a hi-limit shutoff feature. After service, users can remove oil through the 1¹⁄₄-inch port ball-type drain valve and activate the Boil Out Bypass™ mode. To disengage the gas channel before draining, this unit has a drain valve interlock switch.

Ideal for low-volume frying tasks, the Vulcan VFRY18 V-Series fryer features one fry vat and measures 18 inches wide by 40 inches deep by 48³/₈ inches high. Its tank can hold as much as 50 pounds of oil, and it establishes a comfortable 36-inch working height. For long-term durability and rust resistance, the front, front top ledge, sides, tank, base, and stub back are constructed of stainless steel. To ease the transportation of breaded goods to and from the frying compound, this unit comes with two fry baskets, which have plastic-coated handles to reduce heat transfer during carrying. To elevate the base off of the floor, it's mounted on 6-inch legs.
