Gas fryer LOTUS 40033050

A gas-fired fryer designed for confectionery work heats a 28 litre tank of oil to the steady temperatures needed for doughnuts, churros, fritters and other sweets. The burners sit beneath the tank, transferring heat through the base and sides; a thermostat cycles the gas supply to hold the set point without scorching the oil or under-cooking the product. The pilot light and piezoelectric ignition eliminate the need for a separate spark source, while a thermocouple safety valve shuts the gas instantly if the flame fails, preventing unburnt gas from accumulating.

The operator lowers the basket into the hot oil, closes the lid to keep the heat in, and watches the colour develop. Once the batch is done, the basket lifts out and the lid doubles as a draining tray. A front-mounted oil drain tap lets the tank empty quickly for cleaning or oil change, and a built-in filter basket catches crumbs and debris before they burn on the bottom.

The fryer is fabricated from 1 mm thick CrNi 18/10 AISI 304 stainless steel with a Scotch-Brite satin finish, rounded edges and a rear splash-back. Chromed details protect high-wear areas, and the worktop is wide enough to hold trays and tools beside the tank. The front control panel lifts off for access to all serviceable parts, and adjustable feet level the unit on uneven floors.

A 16.5 kW gas input gives the power to recover temperature quickly between batches, while the 28 litre tank volume allows large runs without crowding. The 57 kg weight keeps the unit stable on the floor, and the 800 × 700 × 250 mm footprint fits under standard worktops. Conversion jets for both natural gas and LPG are supplied, so the fryer adapts to the local supply without extra parts.

Cleaning starts with draining the oil through the front tap. The filter basket lifts out for rinsing, and the stainless steel tank wipes clean with a cloth. The control panel and burners are accessible once the front cover is removed, and the rounded edges prevent dirt from collecting in corners.

The FPG-30 is a floor-standing gas confectioner's fryer supplied ready for both LPG and natural-gas installations.
