MBM MAGISTRA PLUS 700 Electric Fryer with Dual 7 L Tanks

An electric fryer heats cooking oil with submerged heating elements, circulating the heat evenly through the oil to cook food quickly and uniformly. The dual-tank design allows separate batches to be fried simultaneously, each with independent temperature control, so different foods can be prepared at the same time without flavour transfer. The oil is held in stainless steel tanks that retain heat efficiently, reducing energy use once the set temperature is reached. A cold zone beneath the heating elements collects food particles, preventing them from burning and extending the life of the oil.

To operate, fill each tank with the required volume of oil and switch the fryer on. Set the thermostat for each tank to the desired temperature between 90 and 190 °C, depending on the food being fried. Once the oil reaches the set temperature, lower the basket into the oil and load it with food. Monitor the cooking process and remove the basket when the food is golden and crisp. The safety thermostat prevents overheating, automatically cutting power if the oil temperature exceeds safe limits. After use, drain the oil through the front drainer into the collection tank, which includes a stainless steel filter to catch debris.

The fryer is constructed from AISI 304 18/10 stainless steel, 1 mm thick, with tanks moulded and welded continuously to the surface for durability and ease of cleaning. Rounded corners inside the tanks reduce areas where food particles can accumulate. The heating elements are armoured stainless steel and can be tilted for thorough cleaning. A large front drainer simplifies oil removal and cleaning, while the cold zone helps maintain oil quality by keeping residues away from the heating elements.

The 400 V 3-phase supply provides the necessary power for rapid heating and consistent performance in a professional kitchen. The 10.5 kW power rating ensures the fryer can handle high-volume frying without significant temperature drops when food is added. The 58 kg weight indicates a sturdy, stable unit that remains in place during use but may require two people to move. The footprint of 400 mm depth, 714 mm width and 850 mm height fits into standard worktop layouts, while the tank dimensions of 140 mm depth, 340 mm width and 240 mm height determine the size of food batches that can be fried.

Cleaning involves draining the oil, removing and tilting the heating elements, and scrubbing the tanks with non-abrasive cleaners. The continuous welding and rounded corners simplify this process, reducing the risk of food residue build-up. The stainless steel construction resists corrosion and staining, ensuring the fryer remains hygienic with regular maintenance. The oil collection tank with its stainless steel filter should be emptied and cleaned after each use to prevent clogging.

The MAGISTRA PLUS 700 is a dual-tank fryer with two 7 L tanks, each operating independently. It is part of the MBM professional catering equipment range, designed for commercial kitchens requiring high-volume frying with precise temperature control.
