This offer ends in:
The DCF25L is a floor-standing gas fryer with a single 25-litre oil tank and twin chrome baskets. It delivers 21kW output through natural gas burners. Operators use it for continuous batch frying in takeaway kitchens, chip shops, and mobile catering units.
Commercial Application
High-volume frying stations require rapid oil temperature recovery between batches. The 21kW gas burner maintains consistent heat during consecutive drops, reducing wait time between fries, chicken, and fish batches. Twin baskets allow operators to separate product types or stagger cooking times without cross-contamination.
During peak service, operators load baskets simultaneously and monitor two timers. The 25-litre capacity handles sustained throughput without frequent oil top-ups. Temperature range from 90°C to 200°C covers par-frying, blanching, and final crisping cycles across different menu items.
Key Operational Advantages
- 21kW gas burner maintains temperature recovery during back-to-back batch cycles

- Twin chrome-plated baskets enable simultaneous frying of separate products
- Flame failure device cuts gas supply if pilot extinguishes
- Hi-limit thermostat prevents oil overheating above set temperature
- Stainless steel construction withstands commercial cleaning protocols

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can this fryer operate on LPG instead of natural gas?
A: Yes. The DCF25L ships configured for natural gas but includes conversion jets for LPG operation. A qualified gas engineer must perform the conversion and adjust the regulator pressure according to the manual.
Q: What are the internal basket dimensions and oil capacity?
A: The single tank holds 25 litres of oil. Each chrome basket measures approximately 300mm x 240mm x 120mm deep. Twin baskets fit side-by-side within the tank opening.
Q: Does the unit include flame failure protection?
A: Yes. A thermocouple-based flame failure device monitors the pilot light. If the flame extinguishes, the gas valve closes automatically within seconds to prevent unburnt gas release.
Q: Is this model suitable for food truck installation?
A: Yes, provided the truck has adequate ventilation and LPG supply infrastructure. The 65kg weight requires secure floor mounting. Check local mobile catering regulations for gas appliance installation standards.
Q: How is the oil drained and filtered between services?
A: A front-mounted drain valve at the tank base empties oil into a collection container. Operators filter oil through external filtration systems or replace it entirely depending on usage volume and product type.
