Atosa USA AEFF-50-3 Triple Vat Electric Fryer, 3 x 50 lb, Built-In Filtration, 208V 3-Phase
Atosa USA AEFF-50-3 — Triple Vat Electric Fryer with Built-In Filtration
Three 50 lb stainless steel vats in one 46-1/2" battery, each with its own 17 kW element and fully programmable electronic controls. The system that separates this from a bank of standalone fryers is the built-in filtration pump — oil is filtered in place, on a schedule, without carrying 50 lb of hot shortening across the kitchen.
Key Features of the AEFF-50-3
A three-vat electric battery is a high-volume machine. Oil management, control precision and recovery are what it is bought for.
Built-In Filtration with Pump
Filtration is integral to the battery, not a separate cart. Oil is pumped out, filtered and returned to the vat in place — which is the difference between filtering daily as intended and skipping it because it is a hassle.
Fully Programmable Controls
Electronic controls on every vat, programmable per product — so fries, chicken and fish each run their own time and temperature and the result does not depend on who is working the station.
Three Independent 50 lb Vats
150 lb of oil in three separately controlled stainless steel tanks — run one, two or all three, and keep allergen or flavor-sensitive product completely separate from the rest.
Six Baskets Included
Two fryer baskets per tank come with the battery — the full working set, so a three-vat line is ready to run on install day.
Three Rear Casters, Three Front Legs
Atosa fits triple batteries with three casters at the rear and three legs at the front. The unit stays planted in service but pivots out from the wall for cleaning behind it.
Electric, Not Gas
Electric elements sit in the oil rather than heating it through a tank wall, which means fast recovery and no flue. On 208 V three-phase at 48 A per wire, a 6/4 AWG feed runs the whole battery.
Electrical and filter media: this battery requires 208 V, 3-phase service with a minimum 6/4 AWG wire size at 48 amps per wire — plan the circuit with your electrician before delivery. For the filtration system, the AEFF-50-3 uses FP-1728-5 filter paper (17" x 22", 100 sheets per box), so keep a box on the shelf.
Ideal Applications
A triple battery with integrated filtration is a volume machine — bought where fried product is the menu, not a side.

Frequently Asked Questions
What electrical service does this fryer battery need?
208 V three-phase, with a minimum 6/4 AWG wire size at 48 amps per wire. Total connected load is 51 kW across the three 17 kW vats. This is a hard-wired installation — have an electrician confirm the service before delivery.
How does the built-in filtration work?
A pump built into the battery draws oil from a vat through filter paper and returns it clean, without moving hot oil out of the unit. The AEFF-50-3 uses FP-1728-5 paper, 17" x 22", sold 100 sheets per box.
Are the three vats independent?
Yes. Each 50 lb tank has its own 17 kW element and its own programmable electronic control, so each can run a different product at a different temperature — or be left off entirely.
Does it come with baskets?
Yes. Two fryer baskets per tank are standard, so the AEFF-50-3 ships with six.
What are the other models in this line?
The AEFF-50 family covers single, double and triple batteries in four configurations: plain full-vat (-1, -2, -3), split-vat (-1T, -2T, -3T), full-vat with auto lift (-1B, -2B, -3B) and split-vat with auto lift (-1TB, -2TB, -3TB). The split-vat models divide a 50 lb tank into two 25 lb vats.
How is it supported — casters or legs?
Triple battery models ship with three casters at the rear and three legs at the front. Single and double batteries use two of each.
