This offer ends in:
The GF90 is a 20-litre gas tube fryer delivering 26.4kW output for continuous batch frying in high-turnover commercial kitchens. Three cast iron vertical burners heat oil through stainless steel tube exchangers, creating a cold zone below the heating tubes where breading debris settles without burning. Operators in fish and chip shops, burger kitchens, and food trucks rely on this unit for sustained throughput during peak service periods.
Commercial Application
Tube design fryers suit operations frying breaded proteins and battered products at high volume. Debris falls into the cold zone beneath the burner tubes, extending oil life and reducing acrid flavour transfer between batches. Temperature recovery between frying cycles determines how many portions can be processed per hour.
During lunch and dinner rushes, the thermostat maintains oil between 93°C and 204°C. Fast recovery after loading cold product keeps queue times short. The 20-litre capacity handles 8–12 kg of product per batch depending on portion size and frying protocol.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can this fryer run on LPG instead of natural gas?
A: The GF90 ships configured for natural gas with ½-inch NPT rear connection. Conversion to LPG requires a nozzle jet kit and regulator adjustment, performed by a Gas Safe registered engineer. TurcoBazaar supplies conversion kits on request.
Q: What are the basket dimensions and maximum oil capacity?
A: The vat holds 20 litres of oil when filled to operating level. Two stainless steel baskets are included; exact internal dimensions are 330 mm length × 250 mm width × 120 mm depth. Effective frying zone sits above the cold zone tubes.
Q: Does this unit include a flame failure device for safety compliance?
A: Yes. The GF90 is fitted with thermocouple and thermopile flame failure interlock as standard. If pilot flame extinguishes, gas supply is cut within seconds. A 232°C high-limit thermostat provides secondary overheat protection.
Q: Is this model suitable for installation in a food truck?
A: The 394 mm width and 65 kg weight suit food truck frying stations. Gas connection and ventilation must comply with mobile catering regulations in your jurisdiction. Adjustable legs allow levelling when the vehicle is parked on slopes.
Q: How is oil filtration and cleaning managed with this fryer?
A: The 1¼-inch full port drain valve at the base allows rapid oil evacuation into a filter cart or disposal container. Cold zone debris is removed after draining by lifting out the tube assembly. Daily filtration extends oil life by removing suspended particles.
