This offer ends in:
This unit processes continuous batch frying across two independent 16-litre oil tanks, each powered by a 5 kW electric element. Total 32-litre capacity supports simultaneous operation of different menu items at separate temperatures. Designed for takeaway operations, chip shops, and fast food kitchens running extended service hours.
Commercial Application
The dual-tank configuration allows concurrent frying of proteins and starches without flavour transfer. Each basin operates independently with dedicated temperature control from 50°C to 190°C. Kitchen staff manage multiple product lines during peak service without cross-contamination or thermal interference.
During service, one tank handles fish or chicken while the second runs continuous chip batches. The 10 kW combined output maintains oil temperature under sustained load. Two wire baskets enable simultaneous batch processing across both tanks.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this fryer available with LPG or natural gas heating instead of electric?
A: No. This model is electric-only with 10 kW hardwired heating elements. TurcoBazaar does not offer gas-fired versions of this unit.
Q: What are the exact oil capacity and internal basket dimensions for each tank?
A: Each tank holds 16 litres of oil. Internal basket dimensions are not specified by the manufacturer but conform to standard wire basket sizing for 16-litre commercial fryer tanks.
Q: Does this electric fryer include flame failure or safety cutout protection?
A: Flame failure devices apply only to gas-fired appliances. This electric unit uses thermostatic temperature control with thermal cutout protection to prevent element overheating.
Q: Can this fryer be installed in a food truck or mobile catering trailer?
A: Yes, provided the vehicle electrical system supplies stable 230V single-phase power at 10 kW continuous load. Secure mounting and ventilation must meet mobile catering standards in your jurisdiction.
Q: How is oil filtration and tank cleaning performed on this double fryer?
A: Each tank includes a bottom drain valve for oil removal into external filtration equipment or disposal containers. Tanks are wiped clean after draining, then refilled with fresh or filtered oil.
