Key Features:

Vulcan PowerFry3 Series, Liquid Propane Floor Fryer: Free-standing, LP-fired floor model rated at 70,000 BTU with a 45-50 lb stainless steel fry tank, purpose-built for high-volume commercial kitchens.
ThreePass Heat Transfer System: Proprietary tube-type heat exchanger maximizes cooking efficiency by passing combustion gases through the fry pot three times, extracting more usable heat per BTU.
SoftStart Ignition System: Gradually ramps up heat at startup to reduce thermal shock, extending oil life and lowering initial BTU draw for improved energy management.
Solid State Analog Controls with Melt Cycle: Adjustable thermostat spans 200-390°F to accommodate a wide variety of products; idles at just 4,318 BTU to hold temperature while minimizing fuel consumption between cook cycles.
Built-In KleenScreen PLUS Filtration System: Integrated stainless steel filter pan with 70 lb capacity and dual-sided stainless mesh screen; 1/3 HP motor and pump circulate frying compound at 8 GPM via a one-touch push button, with an interlock switch that automatically shuts off gas burners during draining.
Hi-Limit Safety Shutoff: Automatically cuts off the gas valve and extinguishes the pilot if shortening reaches unsafe temperatures, protecting both the operator and the oil investment.
Twin Fry Baskets Included: Two baskets allow simultaneous cooking of separate batches or different products, boosting throughput without additional equipment.
Heavy-Duty Stainless Steel Construction: Full stainless steel cabinet and fry tank provide corrosion resistance and durability in demanding kitchen environments.
Mobile on 6-Inch Adjustable Casters: Four 6-inch casters (2 swivel locking, 2 non-locking) allow easy repositioning, with locking casters holding the unit securely in place during operation.
