Built for high-volume kitchens that demand consistent frying performance, this liquid propane fryer delivers precise temperature control and rapid recovery while maintaining energy efficiency. Operators will achieve uniform results across 45 to 50 pounds of frying oil with a compact 15.5-inch wide footprint, enabling heavy output in limited spaces. Facility managers gain certified reliability through CSA, CSA STAR, NSF, and ENERGY STAR recognition, which supports compliance and utility savings.
LongDescription#@#NA#@@#Cleaning Instructions#@#Unplug and cool the fryer fully before cleaning. Drain oil into approved containers and filter or dispose per local rules. Remove baskets and wash in 140–160°F detergent solution; rinse and air dry. Scrub frypot with non-abrasive pad and mild degreaser, then rinse. Clean exterior with mild soap and soft cloth. Inspect and clean ventilation and pilot areas weekly to remove grease. Check gaskets and casters for wear and tighten fasteners regularly.#@@#Additional Info#@#Vulcan’s 1VK45D PowerFry5 liquid propane fryer has a 50-pound capacity, FivePass heat transfer, digital controls, electronic ignition, stainless steel tank, 70,000 BTU output, ENERGY STAR and CSA certifications, and adjustable casters.#@@#General Info#@#Description #@#

#@@# Power-Dense Output#@#
This unit provides 70,000 BTU of input power to drive rapid heat recovery and high throughput. Chefs will reduce cook cycle variance during consecutive loads, improving plate consistency and service speed.
#@@# High Capacity Tank#@#
The stainless steel fry tank accepts approximately 45 pounds of oil and supports a full 50 pounds working capacity to handle sustained service periods. Kitchens can process large batch sizes without midservice oil changes, reducing downtime.
#@@# Advanced Heat Transfer#@#
A FivePass heat transfer system maximizes thermal exchange between burners and fry tank for even oil temperature distribution. Staff will experience fewer cold spots and improved product color and texture across baskets.
#@@# Digital Control System#@#
Solid state digital controls include melt cycles and electronic ignition for repeatable setpoints and simplified startup. Technicians will service fewer controls due to modular electronics and straightforward diagnostics.
#@@# Rugged Construction#@#
Stainless steel front, sides, and frypot provide corrosion resistance and fast surface cleaning in commercial environments. Maintenance crews will complete sanitation tasks faster while preserving structural integrity.
#@@# Mobility and Stability#@#
Adjustable casters include two swivel locking and two non-locking wheels to allow repositioning and secure installation on uneven floors.
