VEMA FG2104 Professional Deep Fryer

This deep fryer rapidly heats oil to a steady temperature, ensuring food cooks evenly and develops a crisp texture. The oil's high heat transfer cooks items like chips or battered fish in minutes. A thermostat keeps the temperature stable, while a basket safely lowers and lifts food when the timer ends the cycle.

Designed for commercial kitchens, the FG2104 sits on the counter for continuous use. The operator fills the vat to the indicated level, adjusts the thermostat and timer, then immerses the basket. A light shows when the oil is ready, and the timer tracks the cooking time. Once done, the basket is lifted to drain the food before the next batch.

Constructed as a single stainless-steel vat with an internal heating element, the unit features a stainless-steel exterior and adjustable feet for levelling on uneven surfaces. A hinged lid covers the vat when idle, minimising heat loss and shielding the oil from contaminants.

Controls include a rotary thermostat for temperature and a mechanical timer for cooking duration. A power switch and indicator light complete the panel.

The 2.3 kW power rating requires a dedicated circuit. The 4-litre oil capacity handles small to medium batches without frequent refills. At 9 kg, the fryer is light enough for one person to move but stable on a worktop. The 330 mm width and 400–550 mm depth fit standard counter setups, while the 360 mm height keeps the basket easily accessible.

Cleaning involves draining the oil, removing the basket, and wiping the vat and lid with a soft cloth. The sealed heating element should not be submerged or sprayed. Stainless-steel surfaces resist corrosion if dried after cleaning.

The FG2104 is part of VEMA's counter-top fryer range.
