Basket for marine equipment LOTUS 531070200

A frying basket holds food submerged in hot oil while keeping it clear of the heating element at the bottom of the vat. The open mesh construction allows oil to circulate around every piece, cooking it evenly and quickly. When the timer signals, the operator lifts the basket and the oil drains back into the vat, leaving the food ready to serve or hold.

To use the basket, load the food into it, lower it into the pre-heated oil, and set the fryer's timer. The basket's handles stay above the oil level, so they remain cool and easy to grip. Once the cycle finishes, lift the basket, let the oil drain for a few seconds, then transfer the food to a tray or holding station.

The basket is made of stainless steel, which resists corrosion from hot oil and frequent washing. Its dimensions—280 mm wide, 320 mm long and 215 mm high—match the internal shape of LOTUS CP-74 and CP-78 fryers, ensuring a secure fit and efficient use of the vat's capacity.

Cleaning involves soaking the basket in hot water and detergent to loosen any food residue, then scrubbing with a non-abrasive pad. Rinse thoroughly and dry before storing to prevent water spots and maintain the mesh's open structure.
