The TB-FR5 is a 5-litre LPG gas fryer built for small-format commercial frying operations. It processes batches of chips, chicken, and battered foods in takeaways, food trucks, and mobile catering setups. The integrated flame failure device cuts gas supply if the pilot flame extinguishes.
Commercial Application
This unit sits on countertops or service tables in operations where floor space is limited. It handles continuous batch frying during lunch and dinner service in takeaways and mobile food businesses. The removable basket allows operators to drain and plate fried products without interrupting the next batch.
During peak service, the 5-litre capacity supports batches of 600-800 grams of chips or 4-6 pieces of battered fish. Oil temperature recovery time between batches determines hourly throughput. The tabletop footprint fits food truck service windows and temporary event setups where gas connection is via standard propane bottles.

Contact Our TeamFrequently Asked Questions
Q: Does the TB-FR5 run on natural gas or only LPG?
A: This model is factory-configured for LPG (propane) at 37 mbar supply pressure. Conversion to natural gas requires replacement burner jets and adjustment of the gas valve. Contact TurcoBazaar for natural gas conversion parts and calibration guidance.
Q: What are the internal basket dimensions and maximum load weight?
A: The stainless steel basket measures approximately 18 × 18 × 10 cm (internal). Maximum safe load is 800 grams of frozen product or 600 grams of battered items to prevent oil overflow during frying. Overloading reduces oil temperature and extends cook times.
Q: How does the flame failure device work and when does it activate?
A: The thermocouple monitors pilot flame temperature. If the flame extinguishes due to wind, gas interruption, or other causes, the thermocouple cools and closes the gas solenoid valve within 60 seconds. This prevents unburned gas from accumulating in enclosed spaces.
Q: Can this fryer be installed in a food truck or mobile catering trailer?
A: Yes. The 6 kg weight and tabletop footprint suit mobile installations. Secure the unit with L-brackets or non-slip matting during transport. Use flexible armoured LPG hose rated for commercial mobile applications and ensure ventilation meets local food truck gas safety codes.
Q: What is the recommended oil filtration and cleaning procedure?
A: After service, allow oil to cool to below 40°C. Lift out the oil tank and pour contents through a fine mesh strainer or filter paper to remove food particles. Wipe the tank interior with food-safe degreaser and dry before refilling. Change oil every 8-10 service periods or when it darkens or smokes at normal frying temperature.
