Description

The Vulcan 1VK85AF gas fryer is a high-performance, space-saving solution for commercial kitchens needing to produce large volumes of fried food efficiently. With a 90 lb oil capacity and 90,000 BTU output, this single-vat, floor model is perfect for restaurants, food service operations, and catering businesses that require consistent, high-quality frying results. Its compact footprint (21" wide x 34 3/8" deep) makes it ideal for tight spaces, while the 36 1/4" working height enhances operator comfort. The PowerFry5™ series features Vulcan’s patented FivePass heat transfer system, which reduces cook times and energy costs, ensuring faster production without compromising quality. The SoftStart ignition system provides a smooth, gradual temperature ramp-up, while the idle temperature setting maintains consistent frying conditions—critical for maintaining crispy textures on breaded items like chicken, shrimp, or fish. Safety is prioritized with plastic-coated basket handles and a hi-limit shutoff mechanism, while four 6" casters (two lockable) allow for easy repositioning. For restaurants prioritizing efficiency, durability, and ease of use, the Vulcan 1VK85AF is a top choice for commercial deep frying.
