Atosa USA ATFS-50ES-NG Gas Floor Fryer, 50 lb, 4 Burners, 88,000 BTU, Natural Gas, Stainless Steel, 2 Baskets
Atosa USA ATFS-50ES-NG — 4 Burner Natural Gas Fryer, 88,000 BTU
The ATFS-50ES-NG is the natural gas version of Atosa's ATFS-50ES gas floor fryer: a 50 lb full-pot fryer with four heavy duty burners at 22,000 BTU/h each for 88,000 BTU/h total, feeding a welded stainless steel tank with an oil cooling zone in the bottom. A millivolt thermostat holds the set point anywhere from 200°F to 400°F, and the fryer ships with two nickel plated baskets, a crumb screen, a basket hanger and four casters.
Key Features of the ATFS-50ES-NG
A gas fryer at this size is judged on three things: how fast it recovers, how long the oil lasts, and how little there is to go wrong.
Four 22,000 BTU Burners
Heavy duty burners with a standing flame and standby pilots, each rated 22,000 BTU/h and controlled independently, so the load can be matched to what is actually frying.
Millivolt Thermostat, 200°F to 400°F
A millivolt T-Stat holds the selected temperature automatically anywhere between 200°F and 400°F — and needs no electrical connection to do it.
Oil Cooling Zone
The cool zone at the bottom of the tank catches crumbs and food particles below the burner path, which is what keeps oil from darkening after a day of breaded product.
Safety Valve and High-Limit Reset
A safety valve with automatic voltage stabilizing, plus a self-reset high temperature limiting device, shut the burners down before the oil gets away from the station.
Two Baskets, Crumb Screen and Hanger
Two nickel plated baskets with coated handles, a wire mesh crumb screen and a basket hanger are all standard — nothing else to buy to put it into service.
Four Casters Standard
Four casters come fitted, so the fryer rolls out from the line for cleaning behind and underneath it. A leg kit is available if the install calls for legs instead.
Gas note: this is the natural gas (NG) version, supplied at 4" W.C. through a 3/4" NPT rear gas connection with a matching 4" w.c. regulator. The propane version of the same fryer runs at 10" W.C. Conforms to NSF/ANSI STD.4.
Ideal Applications
One 15-1/2" wide fryer at 88,000 BTU/h is the working size for a kitchen with a steady fry item, or a second pot alongside an existing one.
