This offer ends in:
The HEF968A is a single-tank electric fryer handling 28 litres of oil per cycle. It processes continuous batches of fried foods at 12 kW heating capacity across fast food operations, takeaways, and fish and chip shops. Operators run this unit during peak service when throughput and temperature recovery determine output volume.
Commercial Application
This fryer sits within the frying station and handles batch production throughout service hours. The 28-litre capacity allows operators to manage multiple orders without frequent oil changes. Temperature recovery between batches determines how quickly the next load can enter the tank.
During peak periods, staff load product, monitor cook times, and rotate baskets to maintain output flow. The single-tank configuration suits kitchens with dedicated frying menus where one product type dominates throughput. Oil management and filtration procedures run between service shifts.
Key Operational Advantages
- 28-litre oil capacity handles batch volumes typical in takeaway and fast food operations

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the oil capacity and what basket size does this fryer accommodate?
A: The HEF968A holds 28 litres of oil. Basket dimensions are not specified in the base model data; contact TurcoBazaar for exact internal tank measurements and compatible basket sizing for your product range.
Q: Can this fryer be installed in a food truck or mobile catering unit?
A: Yes, provided the vehicle has a three-phase 380V power supply. The free-standing design allows mounting on a secure platform. Ensure adequate ventilation and compliance with mobile food service electrical codes.
Q: How is oil filtration managed during daily operation?
A: This model does not include integrated filtration. Operators drain oil through the manual valve and filter externally using portable filtration equipment. Daily filtration extends oil life and maintains frying quality.
Q: What electrical connection does this fryer require?
A: The HEF968A operates on three-phase 380V at 50 Hz and draws 12 kW. Installation requires a qualified electrician to connect to a dedicated three-phase circuit with appropriate overcurrent protection.
Q: How long does it take for the oil to reach frying temperature from cold?
A: Heat-up time depends on ambient conditions and oil volume. The 12 kW element typically brings 28 litres to operating temperature in 15–20 minutes. Recovery time between batches is shorter due to residual heat in the tank.
