95,000 BTU Solstice Burner/Baffle Design: Pitco's proven tube-fired Solstice burner system uses high-temperature alloy stainless steel heat baffles inside the heat exchanger tubes for maximum heating efficiency without a blower or ceramics, lowering flue temperatures and increasing production per BTU.

Detailed Description

The Pitco Frialator VF-65S is an ENERGY STAR qualified, floor model tube-fired gas fryer built for the rigors of high-volume commercial kitchens, running on LP (propane) gas and delivering 95,000 BTU of output through Pitco's proven Solstice burner and baffle design, which eliminates the need for a blower or ceramics while generating maximum production per BTU. With a 65 lb oil capacity and an 18 x 18 fry tank featuring a smooth peened stainless steel finish, this fryer is engineered for both heavy use and straightforward daily cleaning. Millivolt thermostatic controls allow precise temperature adjustment from 200°F to 400°F, backed by an automatic high-limit safety shutoff and an integrated gas control valve that cuts fuel flow if the pilot flame is ever extinguished. A deep cool zone beneath the tube rack traps crumbs without carbonizing, actively extending oil life and reducing operating costs. The unit ships with two twin fry baskets, a removable basket hanger, drain extension, clean-out rod, and 9 adjustable legs, plus a 5-year limited frypot parts warranty for long-term peace of mind.
