CASTA EASY 700 E7/FRE2V17 Electric Twin-Tank Fryer

An electric twin-tank fryer heats two independent vats of oil to crisp and cook food evenly. A heating element immersed in each tank raises the oil temperature, while a thermostat cycles the power to hold the set point. The fryer's twin configuration allows two different foods to be cooked at once, or the same food in batches without cross-contamination. A wire basket lowers into the hot oil, suspending the food so it fries on all sides; a lid retains heat and reduces splashing when the basket is raised.

To operate the fryer, fill each tank with the required volume of oil and close the lid. Set the thermostat to the desired temperature; the orange indicator light shows the appliance is on, and the green light confirms the heating elements are active. Once the oil reaches the set temperature, load the food into the basket, lower it into the oil and monitor the cooking time. When the food is done, lift the basket, allow excess oil to drain back into the tank, and transfer the food to a holding area. A stainless steel draining tank collects used oil for hygienic disposal.

The fryer is built as a single-piece pressing of 1.5 mm AISI 304 stainless steel with rounded edges for durability and easy cleaning. High-efficiency stainless steel heating elements are housed in protective sheaths and can be rotated out of the tank to simplify maintenance. A high-precision electric thermostat controls the oil temperature, while a separate safety thermostat cuts power if the oil exceeds 230 °C. Both thermostat sensors are embedded inside the heating elements and shielded from mechanical damage.

The control panel features two indicator lights: orange for power on, green for heating active. A steel cabinet door with a magnetic lock secures internal components, and adjustable stainless steel legs allow the unit to be levelled on uneven floors.

A 33 kW power rating requires a 400 V 3-phase supply, the standard for heavy-duty catering equipment. The 400 mm depth, 700 mm width and 850 mm height give a compact footprint that fits under most worktops while providing two 17 L tanks for high-volume frying. The weight of the unit ensures stability during operation, and the adjustable legs compensate for floor irregularities.

Cleaning involves rotating the heating elements out of the tanks, wiping down the stainless steel surfaces, and removing oil residue from the draining tank. The rounded edges and single-piece construction prevent food debris from collecting in corners, reducing the time needed for daily upkeep.

The fryer is supplied with two baskets, a lid and a stainless steel oil draining tank as standard.
