Electric fryer LOTUS 05073030

The LOTUS Electric fryer 8+8 L FQ-2EM is a professional electric fryer designed for busy catering environments.

This appliance operates by heating oil within its tanks using electrical elements. The hot oil is then used to cook food placed in baskets. A thermostat controls the oil temperature, and a safety thermostat provides overheat protection. This model is a double tank fryer, meaning it has two separate vats for independent cooking or for frying different items simultaneously.

To use the fryer, the operator fills the vats with oil and the unit is powered on. Once the oil reaches the desired temperature, food is placed in the baskets and lowered into the hot oil. The dual thermostats manage the cooking temperature. After cooking, the baskets are lifted, and excess oil can be drained via the front oil drainage system. The heating element block is designed for easy removal to facilitate cleaning.

Constructed from CrNi 18/10 AISI 304 stainless steel, the fryer features a Scotch-Brite satin finish. The worktop is 1 mm thick with rounded edges, and a rear panel is included. Chrome-plated components are also present.

The controls include dual thermostats, one for regulating the cooking temperature and another for overheat protection.

The 5.4 kW power rating indicates the electrical load the unit will draw when in operation. The 400 V-3N voltage requirement specifies the electrical supply needed. Each of the two vats has a volume of 8 L. The overall dimensions are 300 mm in length, 500 mm in width, and 290 mm in height. The unit weighs 18 kg. The fryer has a stated capacity of 9 kg/hr. The basket size is 20x27x11 cm.

Cleaning is aided by the removable heating element block and the front oil drainage system. The stainless steel construction allows for straightforward wiping down of surfaces.
