Vulcan 2VK45CF PowerFry5™ (2) 45-50 lb. Fryers Gas Floor Fryer with Computer Controls and KleenScreen PLUS® Filtration System, 120 Volts - 140,000 BTU

The 2VK45CF PowerFry5™ Fryer from Vulcan is a two-fryer system with 45-50 lb capacity Commercial Deep Fryers designed to keep up with a commercial kitchen’s demands while saving operators on operational costs with an energy-efficient gas-fired system and a filtration system. These energy-efficient fryers are at the top of the ENERGYSTAR® qualification list as some of the most efficient deep fryers available. If you’re in the market for Floor Model Gas Fryers you can’t go wrong with this offering from Vulcan. 

Most tube-fired fryers use multiple burners each in their own heat exchange tube. This evenly distributes heat but a lot of heat is wasted and is vented from the fryer immediately. Vulcan’s FivePass™ heat transfer takes a different approach, a single burner that branches off into two heat exchange tubes that bend back and forth to extend the length of the heat exchange tubes to heat oil evenly while harnessing more of the heat from the burned gas that would otherwise be unused. The innovative design of the burner and heat exchange system yields this fryer with 78% thermal efficiency and 68% cooking efficiency, which is leagues ahead of other fryers on the market. When idling, this fryer only consumes 4,251 BTU/hr of gas to maintain the cooking temperature. To reduce thermal shock to the oil at startup, the SoftStart™ ignition system uses 35,000 BTU/hr of gas and gradually applies heat to the oil which will prolong its life.

The computer controls on this fryer make it extremely easy to get consistent results with up to 10 menu items. The system is easy to update with a USB drive making updating and tweaking settings simple to deploy to multiple fryers. The product name and cook times are shown on the digital display letting users know that they have selected the right menu item. The temperature can be accurately controlled between 200° and 390°F with fast recovery. Conveniently this fryer has three melt modes and electronic ignition, 

This fryer system’s KleenScreen PLUS® filtration system uses a stainless steel mesh to remove most particles. The filtration system is protected by a filter vessel made from 18 gauge stainless steel. If you need to filter out particles down to .5 microns, optional KleenScreen PLUS® filter envelopes can be ordered. Filtration is done quickly at a rate of 8 GPM thanks to a ⅓ HP pump motor.

Stainless steel construction of the cabinet and fry tank make sure cleaning and maintenance is as easy as possible. Moving this fryer around is easy with the adjustable 6” casters which also make keeping it level simple. Twin fry baskets with plastic coated handles, a tank brush, and a clean-out rod are also included for convenience.

The total gas input required by this fryer is 140,000 BTU/hr and it comes with a NEMA 5-15P cord and plug to connect it to a 120v outlet.
