Pitco SSH55R Solstice Supreme™ 15 - 50 lb. Gas Floor Model Full Pot Fryer with Solid State Controls - 100,000 BTU

The Frialator SSH55R Solstice Supreme High-Efficiency Fryer is a reliable Floor Model Gas Fryer from Pitco that has been designed to provide consistent results efficiently.  Afterall, Pitco is one of the pioneers of dedicated fryer units and has been improving its designs for over a century. The single 14” by 14” fry tank can hold up to 4o-50 lbs of oil.

The simple to use solid-state controls safely maintain the temperature of the frying oil and includes modes for boil out and melt cycle. For the safety of users, this fryer comes with a high-temperature safety switch which automatically stops the unit from reaching dangerous temperatures. Advanced controls are available through the optional digital controller and Intellifry I12 Computer. With the Intellifry 12 or digital controller users have access to automated timers and can also control an optional basket lift.

The burners efficiently produce 100,000 BTU/hr of heat with the advanced solstice burner technology. This simple and powerful system has patented self-cleaning burners and downdraft protection. Without any blowers or ceramics to produce this much heat, these burners are much more reliable since they have mechanical parts that can wear or break down.

With stainless steel construction on this unit’s door, sides, tank, and front it’s easy to maintain and clean. The tank itself is made from peened stainless steel for durability and features an extensive cool zone beneath the tube rack to collect crumbs and debris which prevents them from carbonizing and affecting the taste of the oil.

Oil is quickly drained thanks to a 1-¼” full port drain valve, a drain extension is included as a drain line cleanout rod to clear out any clogs. Two basket configurations are available with this unit, 2 twin baskets or 1 full basket.
