MBM Domina Pro 900 Gas Fryer on Closed Stand

A gas fryer on a closed stand heats cooking oil with a direct gas burner beneath the tank, transferring energy quickly and evenly through the oil. The fryer maintains a consistent temperature across the entire volume, allowing food to cook uniformly without hot spots. A thermostatic control system monitors and adjusts the flame to keep the oil within the set range, while a safety thermostat cuts the gas supply if the temperature exceeds safe limits. This method delivers rapid heat recovery, essential for high-volume frying in professional kitchens.

The operator fills the 18-litre tank with oil, then ignites the burner and sets the desired temperature using the control knob. Once the oil reaches the set point, the fryer signals readiness, and the operator lowers the basket into the oil. After the programmed cooking time, the basket is lifted, and the food is drained. The large front drainer simplifies oil removal, directing used oil through a stainless steel filter into a collection tank for safe disposal.

The fryer is constructed from 18/10 AISI 304 stainless steel, with moulded and continuous-welded tanks featuring rounded corners to prevent food debris accumulation. The closed stand provides stability and storage space beneath the unit. A safety thermostat and thermostatic temperature control are standard, ensuring the oil temperature remains within safe parameters during operation.

The 18 kW gas power rating indicates a high-capacity burner suitable for busy service periods, capable of maintaining temperature even with frequent basket loading. The 400 mm width, 900 mm depth, and 1180 mm height define the footprint, requiring a dedicated space on the kitchen floor with adequate clearance for ventilation and access. At 69 kg, the unit is designed for stationary installation, with the stand providing structural support and reducing the need for additional worktop reinforcement.

Cleaning involves draining the oil through the front drainer and collection system, then wiping down the stainless steel surfaces with a non-abrasive cloth. The rounded corners and continuous welds eliminate crevices where oil residue could collect, simplifying sanitation. The stainless steel filter in the oil outlet system should be removed and cleaned after each use to prevent clogging.

The Domina Pro 900 is available in versions with digital displays, offering automatic melting, precise temperature control, cooking time programming, and preset cooking cycles for common items. These variants streamline operation in high-pressure environments where speed and consistency are critical.

This fryer is categorised under professional gas fryers in the MBM catalogue, designed for commercial kitchens requiring reliable, high-capacity frying equipment.
