The ER50 Series Freestanding Electric Fryer is engineered for high-efficiency commercial frying, delivering up to 85% cooking efficiency to maximize output while reducing energy costs. Featuring 17 kW low watt density ribbon-style heating elements, the ER50 offers significantly more surface area than traditional elements, ensuring rapid heat transfer, fast recovery times, and consistent cooking performance.
Designed to keep kitchens cooler, the ER50 emits less ambient heat, reducing air conditioning costs and maintaining a more comfortable working environment. ENERGY STAR certified, it’s built for both performance and sustainability.
This fryer features a solid state digital temperature control for precise operation, maintaining temperatures from 200°F to 390°F within ±2°. It includes multiple fat melt modes, fast recovery, a boil-out mode, and two countdown timers for added convenience and efficiency.
Constructed with a durable 16-gauge stainless steel fry tank and a stainless steel cabinet, each tank holds 50 lbs. of frying compound and includes a 1¼" full port ball-type drain valve for easy oil removal. Additional features include twin fry baskets with plastic-coated handles, an easily removable basket hanger, and four 6" adjustable legs for stability and easy cleaning access.
The built-in filter system features a durable, seamless 18-gauge stainless steel filter vessel and a convenient drawer-style pan with a 70 lb. shortening capacity. A 1/3 HP motor and pump circulate hot oil at 8 gallons per minute, activated by a one-touch push-button switch. The system includes a stainless steel mesh filter screen, tank brush, cleanout rod, and hands-free oil return connection. A drain valve interlock switch ensures safety by automatically shutting off the heating elements when the drain valve is opened.
Operating on 480V, 3-phase power, the ER50 comes with a one-year limited parts and labour warranty, plus a ten-year limited fry tank warranty, making it a dependable, energy-efficient solution for demanding commercial kitchens.
