The Imperial IFS-40-OP is a top-tier commercial gas fryer designed for high-performance deep frying in restaurant kitchens. With a 40lb oil capacity and open-pot design, this floor model fryer eliminates food buildup, making cleanup a breeze. The welded seams, sloped bottom, and mesh crumb screen ensure efficient drainage and minimal oil filtering, saving time and reducing maintenance costs. Ideal for frying frozen foods, this gas fryer is powered by liquid propane (LP) and features ceramic plates that distribute heat evenly, while the snap-action thermostat maintains precise temperatures (200-400°F) to extend oil life and improve fry quality. The large cold zone keeps sediment away from hot oil, preventing burning and ensuring consistent results. Perfect for restaurants, diners, and catering businesses, the Imperial IFS-40-OP combines durability, efficiency, and ease of use to meet the demands of busy commercial kitchens.
