Description

The Vulcan 2VK85CF PowerFry5™ gas fryer is a high-performance, commercial-grade solution for restaurants and foodservice operations that demand speed, efficiency, and reliability. Designed with two 90lb vats, this floor model fryer handles large batches of breaded items with ease, thanks to its 90,000 BTU output and patented FivePass™ heat transfer system. This advanced system ensures even heat distribution, enabling rapid oil recovery after cold or frozen products are added, while maintaining 78% thermal efficiency—saving energy and reducing operating costs. The stainless steel construction not only enhances durability but also meets the rigorous demands of professional kitchens, making it a long-term investment for businesses prioritizing quality and performance. Safety and convenience are built into every detail of the 2VK85CF fryer. The V-shaped cold zone collects sediment before it can burn, eliminating flare-ups and maintaining consistent frying conditions. The hi-limit shut-off feature automatically cuts off the gas supply if oil temperatures exceed safe levels, adding an extra layer of protection against fire hazards. Meanwhile, the plastic-coated fry baskets minimize heat transfer, reducing the risk of burns for kitchen staff while maintaining optimal frying performance. With a working height of 36 1/4 inches, this freestanding fryer offers a comfortable setup for operators, further enhancing its appeal for busy commercial kitchens. For restaurants, cafeterias, or foodservice establishments requiring high-volume frying, the Vulcan 2VK85CF is the ideal choice.
