Electric Fryer for ships LOTUS 08090432X

A professional electric fryer with an integrated neutral cabinet, this LOTUS F2/8-74ETX unit heats two separate oil tanks to cook food quickly and evenly. The fryer circulates hot oil around the baskets, transferring heat directly to the food for a crisp exterior and thorough cooking. Dual tanks allow different foods to be fried simultaneously without flavour transfer, while the neutral cabinet beneath provides dry, ambient storage for ingredients or utensils during service.

The operator loads each basket with food, lowers it into the preheated oil, and sets the timer. A dual thermostat maintains the oil temperature and cuts power if overheating occurs, triggering a visual and audible alarm. Once cooking is complete, the baskets lift out, draining oil back into the tank. The drip trays beneath collect any residual oil and food particles, while the rotating heating elements swing out for thorough tank cleaning.

Constructed from CrNi 18/10 AISI 304 stainless steel with a 2 mm thick worktop, the unit features rounded edges, chrome-plated components, and a rear splashback for durability and hygiene. IPX5-rated water-resistant control knobs protect the electrical components during cleaning. The front control panel removes easily to access internal parts, and adjustable flanged feet ensure stability on uneven floors.

With a 12 kW power rating, the fryer requires a 400 V three-phase supply, suitable for commercial kitchen circuits. Its 59 kg weight and 400x705x900 mm footprint make it a freestanding unit that fits beneath standard worktops while leaving space for movement. The 8+8 litre tank volume supports a 12 kg/h throughput, allowing continuous frying for medium to high-demand service.

Maintenance involves daily oil filtration through the included draining tray, wiping down the stainless steel surfaces, and removing food debris from the drip trays. The basket support and lids keep utensils organised, while the tank filter prevents particles from recirculating in the oil.

Available in single or double tank configurations, this model includes two baskets, lids, a tank filter, and a basket support as standard. The neutral cabinet beneath the fryer section provides additional workspace or storage without requiring extra floor space.
