Product Overview
1VEG50M 50 lb. Energy Star Gas Floor Fryer - 85,000 BTU
The Vulcan 1VEG50M Energy Star Gas Floor Fryer stands as a pinnacle of efficiency in commercial kitchen equipment, boasting a formidable 85,000 BTU to deliver swift and precise frying. Crafted with durability at its core, the stainless steel fry tank is available in capacities of 35-40 and 45-50 lbs, catering to diverse kitchen demands. The fryer features a generously sized cold zone area that promotes healthier frying by capturing sediment and prolonging oil life. Its practical design includes an 11⁄4" full port ball-type drain valve for effortless oil removal and a stainless steel reinforced door secured by an Earth magnet for a tight closure.
The G90 high-grade galvanized non-corrosive finish on the sides and back ensures resilience in demanding kitchen environments, complemented by a set of four nickel-plated adjustable legs for stability. Equipped with twin fry baskets featuring plastic-coated handles, this fryer prioritizes both convenience and safety during frying operations. The behind-the-door snap-action millivolt thermostat control, ranging from 200°F to 400°F, operates with a standing pilot, eliminating the need for an electric hook-up and providing precise temperature management.
Safety measures include a high-temperature limit control that shuts off the gas supply to the main burners and pilot when necessary. Practical features such as a built-in flue deflector, a nickel-plated tube rack, and an easily removable stainless steel basket hanger further enhance the user-friendly design, facilitating straightforward cleaning. With its robust construction, high BTU output, and thoughtful features, the Vulcan 1VEG50M Gas Floor Fryer stands as a reliable and efficient asset in any commercial kitchen setting.
