The 3VK45CF PowerFry5™ Fryer from Vulcan offers this reliability while lowering operational costs with its energy-efficient heat transfer system and built-in filtration. The Commercial Deep Fryers in this system aren’t just ENERGYSTAR® qualified, they are some of the most efficient fryers you can find on the market. If you’re in the market for Floor Model Gas Fryers you can’t go wrong with this offering from Vulcan. 

The FivePass™ heat transfer system in this fryer is unlike the multiple heat exchange tubes and burners found inside other fryers. The burner and heat exchange tubes look like they belong under the hood of a racecar, snaking back and forth with smooth bends. This design effectively extends the length of the heat exchange tubes while using s a single burner. This also increases the surface area to transfer more heat to the oil for the same amount of fuel burned. 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.

With programmable computer controls, this fryer allows users to easily select a menu item from the up to ten programmable selections. A digital display shows users the item names and cook times for quick reference. Programming the fryer is simple via a USB interface making it easy to update multiple fryers with the same parameters. The temperature can be set accurately between 200°F and 390°F with fast recovery time and cook time can be based on actual time or compensating time. With electronic ignition and three melt modes, this fryer is simple to start up.

With the KleenScreen PLUS®, this fryer system has a stainless steel mesh filter to remove larger particles. However, to filter out particles down to .5 microns the optional KleenScreen PLUS® filter envelopes must be ordered. The filtration system is held inside a seamless 18 gauge stainless steel filter vessel. A ⅓ HP filter motor makes sure filtration is quick to minimize downtime with a ⅓ HP pump.

The stainless steel construction of the cabinet and fry tank make this fryer durable and easy to clean. Included with this fryer are adjustable 6” casters, a clean-out rod, tank brush, and twin fry baskets with plastic coated handles.

The total gas input of this fryer is 210,000 BTU/hr and comes complete with a NEMA 5-15P cord and plug to connect it to a 120v outlet.
