Gas fryer Virtus AMZ0061

This Virtus Gas Fryer, article AMZ0061, is a professional cooking appliance designed for high-volume food preparation. It features a sturdy construction with a base unit that includes a double-walled, insulated door for safety and heat retention. The operating principle of a gas fryer involves heating oil to a specific temperature for cooking food. This model uses round cast iron burners situated within an insulated combustion chamber to heat the oil in its two 13-litre tanks. Combustion gases are expelled through individual chimneys for each tank. Operation involves filling the tanks with oil and igniting the burners. The thermostatic gas valve, controlled by an analogue temperature display on the front of each tank, allows precise temperature regulation. This valve is fitted with a thermocouple safety system, which automatically cuts off the gas supply if the flame is extinguished. Ignition is achieved via a piezo system. An upper tray with a perforated bottom is included for holding precooked food, allowing excess oil to drain away. The fryer has a total capacity of 26 litres across its two tanks and can process up to 50 kg of food per hour. The appliance has a power rating of 34 kW. Its dimensions are 1000 mm in length, 920 mm in width, and 1610 mm in height. The catalogue places this product within the gas fryers category.
