Pitco 45C+S Gas Fryer – (1) 50 lb Vat, Floor Model

The Pitco 45C+S gas fryer holds 42 to 50 pounds of oil and can cook 66.2 pounds of fries per hour, ideal for foodservice operations that require a high-volume production of fried foods. Made of stainless steel, the tank is durable and is welded with a smooth, peened finish that simplifies cleaning. The deep cold zone which contains at least 20 percent of the tank’s total oil-will catch crumbs and sediment to prevent burning, preserving the taste of the oil.

This fryer is equipped with an atmospheric burner system that uses four stainless steel tubes and alloy stainless steel baffles to efficiently heat the oil, providing cooking temperatures between 200 and 400 degrees Fahrenheit. To protect the unit from damage, the upper limit switch will automatically shut off the gas flow if the fryer exceeds safe temperatures. A standing pilot light provides an on-demand flame, and gas flow will also cut off if the flame goes out.

Durable and resistant to rusting, the Pitco 45C+S fryer has a stainless steel front and door and a galvanized steel back and sides. A 1¹/₄-inch NPT front-located drain valve helps operators empty the tank’s oil, and a drain extension is included to move oil into a desired container or filtering system. To remove sediment and crumbs from the drain, a clean-out rod is included.
