Vulcan 1VK85C Details
Deliver basket after basket of freshly fried foods to your customers with this Vulcan 1VK85C-1 PowerFry5 85-90 lb. natural gas floor fryer with computer controls! With an oil capacity of 85-90 lb., this unit is packed with great benefits to make your frying experience as easy and efficient as possible. Boasting a 19 1/2" x 18 1/4" frying area, this tube-style fryer delivers 90,000 BTU of power and comes with 2 twin fry baskets, so you can get to frying as soon as you fill the tank!
Equipped with computer controls, this unit features 10 different menu items that can be preprogrammed with your most popular products. This not only saves you time and labor, but also ensures consistency across the board. It doesn't matter which employee is operating the fryer, because your items will be perfectly fried, every time. For your convenience, the unit is easy to program through the USB interface, touchpad, or a laptop. Other great features include compensating time adjustment, shake and hold times, and an automated temperature control boil-out mode.
The temperature can be adjusted from 200-390 degrees Fahrenheit, and the control allows the unit to react within 2 degrees Fahrenheit of the set temperature, which provides faster recovery and improves overall performance. A SoftStart ignition system combines with 3 selectable melt modes to allow you to gradually heat up your oil and help preserve its life, while also using less BTUs. By maintaining an idle temperature setting that only uses 6298 BTU of power, the fryer conserves energy and proves to be a very efficient addition to your equipment lineup.
This fryer features Vulcan's exclusive FivePass heat transfer system that passes heat to the oil for a much quicker recovery, yielding 66% cooking and 78% thermal efficiency. At its maximum production rate, the flue temperatures are less than 500 degrees Fahrenheit! Plus, to ensure safety for all employees, a hi-limit indicator shuts off the gas connection and standing pilot if the oil temperatures get too high. A large V-shaped cold zone at the bottom of the fry tank prevents crumbs and other debris from burning, which extends the life of your shortening and improves the taste of your product. A 1 1/4" full port drain valve makes oil removal a quick and hassle-free process.
Both the cabinet and fry tank are comprised of rugged stainless steel that's designed to withstand the hustle and bustle of a busy commercial kitchen. To aid in the cleaning process, the unit comes with a tank brush and clean out rod. When you need to clean behind the fryer, the 6" casters provide easy maneuverability. This unit requires natural gas and a 120V electrical connection for operation.
