CASTA Gas Fryer with Cabinet 22+22 L

The CASTA LQ/FLG2V22 is a professional gas fryer featuring a cabinet base. This appliance is constructed from AISI 304 stainless steel.

A fryer operates by heating oil to a specific temperature, into which food is immersed for cooking. In this model, heating is achieved via flame tubes positioned within the tank. These tubes incorporate internal fins to enhance heat transfer to the oil.

The sequence of use involves filling the tank with oil and igniting the burners. The oil temperature is then regulated using a gas supply valve connected to the burners, allowing the operator to set the desired cooking temperature up to a maximum of 190 °C. A safety thermocouple is fitted, and a piezoelectric ignition system with an independent battery provides a starting method. The unit is equipped with a mechanical valve for gas control.

For draining used oil, the fryer features an oil discharge tap made of chromed brass. The oil is directed into a steel bowl that includes a stainless steel filter for removing food particles. The tank itself is pressed from a single piece of 1.5 mm thick stainless steel and has rounded edges to facilitate cleaning.

Safety features include a safety thermostat that automatically shuts off the gas supply if the oil temperature exceeds 235 °C. The sensors for both the working and safety thermostats are located inside the tank. The cabinet base is fitted with AISI 304 stainless steel doors that have a magnetic closure.

The fryer stands on adjustable legs, also made of AISI 304 stainless steel, allowing for levelling on uneven surfaces. The dimensions of the unit are 800 mm in length, 900 mm in width, and 850 mm in height. The total power rating is 42 kW.

Cleaning is aided by the stainless steel construction, rounded tank edges, and the removable oil drain bowl and filter. The cabinet doors provide access for cleaning the base.
