This offer ends in:
The EF131V is a countertop electric fryer with 13.4-litre oil capacity and 3 kW heating element. It processes batch-fried products in takeaway restaurants, fish and chip shops, and food trucks. The moveable oil pan allows manual oil removal without draining taps.
Commercial Application
This unit occupies 310×507×350mm of counter space in front-line frying stations. It handles continuous batch production during peak service hours when oil temperature recovery determines overall kitchen throughput. The 3 kW element brings oil to working temperature before service begins.
During service, operators load product into the basket, fry to specification, and lift. Temperature recovery time between batches depends on product load and oil volume remaining. The adjustable thermostat allows temperature control up to 200°C for different frying protocols.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the oil capacity and what basket dimensions does this fryer use?
A: The EF131V holds 13.4 litres of oil. Basket dimensions are determined by the internal tank width and depth, which accommodate standard frying loads for chips, battered fish, and fried chicken portions typical in takeaway operations.
Q: Is this fryer suitable for installation in a food truck or mobile catering trailer?
A: Yes. The unit operates on 220-240V single-phase supply at 3 kW load. It requires a dedicated 16-amp circuit and must be secured to a stable counter surface to prevent movement during transit.
Q: How do I clean the oil pan and perform routine oil filtration?
A: The oil pan is removable by handle once the oil has cooled. Lift the pan out, filter the oil through commercial fryer paper or cloth, clean the pan with degreaser, rinse, dry, and replace. No drain tap is fitted—this is a manual-removal system.
Q: What temperature range does the adjustable thermostat cover?
A: The thermostat adjusts from ambient temperature up to 200°C. This range covers standard frying protocols for chips at 175-180°C and battered products at 180-190°C.
Q: What replacement parts are available for the EF131V model?
A: TurcoBazaar supplies replacement heating elements, thermostats, oil pans, and baskets. Technical support provides part numbers and fitting instructions for field replacement of wear components.
