Available Options
This twin-tank electric fryer processes high-volume batches of chips, battered fish, chicken, and fried snacks across two independent 12-litre oil chambers. Each tank operates on dedicated thermostat control, allowing simultaneous frying of different products without flavour transfer. The unit is installed on countertops in takeaways, fish and chip shops, burger kitchens, and mobile catering operations.
Commercial Application
The dual-tank layout supports continuous service during peak trading hours. One basket fries while the other drains or loads, reducing idle time between batches. Independent thermostats maintain set temperatures across both chambers, supporting different frying profiles for battered fish, frozen chips, and breaded chicken.
Operators work both tanks simultaneously during evening rushes or weekend service. The 18 kW heating element recovers oil temperature quickly after cold product loading, maintaining consistent crispness across consecutive batches. Each 12-litre chamber holds approximately 2.5 kg of frozen chips per cycle.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does this fryer require three-phase electrical supply?
A: No. This model operates on single-phase 400V supply at 18 kW load. A qualified commercial electrician should verify circuit capacity and install appropriate overcurrent protection before connection.
Q: What are the internal basket dimensions for each tank?
A: Each 12-litre tank accommodates a wire basket approximately 26 cm wide × 22 cm deep × 10 cm high. Basket capacity suits 2–2.5 kg of frozen chips or 6–8 portions of battered fish per cycle.
Q: How is oil drained for filtration and cleaning?
A: Each tank has a front-mounted drain valve positioned above a collection container. Oil drains by gravity when the valve is opened after the heating element cools below 60°C.
Q: Is this unit suitable for food truck installation?
A: Yes, provided the vehicle electrical system supplies stable 400V single-phase power at 18 kW continuous load. The 35 kg weight and compact footprint suit standard mobile catering countertop layouts with adequate ventilation.
Q: What is the typical heat-up time from cold start to frying temperature?
A: Each 12-litre tank reaches 180°C from ambient temperature in approximately 12–15 minutes with the 18 kW element. Recovery time between batches is 3–4 minutes depending on product load temperature.
