Patented FivePass Heat Transfer System distributes heat uniformly within cooking oil for fast recovery; enabling the fryer to cook up to 14% more lbs./hr. than competitive fryers.
The SoftStart Ignition System heats oil quickly while using half the BTUs at startup, resulting in extension of oil life. The trouble-free adjustable casters feature 2 swivel non-locking and 2 swivel locking casters for easy mobility.
Solid state analog knob control is located behind the door. Accurate temperature control 200° to 390°F. User selectable fat melt modes. All PowerFry5 Series Gas Fryers are standard with electronic ignition — power button starts the fryer instantly.
This unit is equipped with a built-in filter system. The filter vessel is constructed of 18 gauge stainless steel with a 1/3 HP motor/pump that circulates hot frying compound at the rate of 8 gallons per minute. The system is activated by a one-touch push-button switch and has a standard stainless steel mesh filter screen.
