The Pitco 40D Floor Fryer is a high-performance, natural gas fryer designed to meet the rigorous demands of commercial kitchens. With a capacity to hold 40-45 pounds of oil, it’s ideal for frying large volumes of food with consistent results. The fryer features a millivolt control system and an adjustable temperature range from 200°F to 400°F (93°C to 204°C), allowing you to fine-tune your cooking process for various menu items. It also includes a temperature limit shut-off for added safety, ensuring the fryer does not overheat.
Constructed with a durable stainless steel tank, front, and door, and galvanized steel sides and back, the Pitco 40D is built to withstand the demands of fast-paced commercial environments. The 6” adjustable legs ensure stability, and the fryer’s heavy-duty construction is reinforced by high-temperature alloy stainless steel heat baffles within the heat exchanger tubes. These baffles provide excellent heating and combustion efficiency, making the fryer both energy-efficient and reliable. The welded tank features an extra smooth peened finish that simplifies cleaning and maintenance.
For ease of use, the fryer is equipped with a standing pilot light design, ensuring the fryer is always ready for ignition when needed. Its integrated gas control valve serves multiple functions, including acting as a manual and pilot valve, gas filter, pressure regulator, and automatic main valve. This feature minimizes the risk of gas-related accidents by preventing gas flow to the main burner until the pilot is lit and shutting off gas flow if the pilot flame goes out. The temperature limit switch provides an additional safety measure by automatically cutting off gas flow if the fryer’s temperature exceeds the set limit.
The Pitco 40D Floor Fryer also comes with a comprehensive set of standard accessories. These include two nickel-plated oblong wire mesh baskets, a nickel-plated tube rack, a drain line clean-out rod, a drain extension, and a removable basket hanger for easy cleaning.
