Giles GEF-400 (70885 / 70886) — 24-1/16" Electric Round Kettle Fryer, 45 lb
The Giles GEF-400 is an electric round kettle fryer engineered to deliver crisp, moist fried chicken quickly and consistently. Its 15-7/8-inch diameter fry pot holds 45 lbs of oil and cooks up to 14 lbs of product per load, while high-efficiency circular heating elements surround the product with 10,000 watts for even heat distribution. An automatic basket lift lowers and raises the stainless steel basket at the start and end of each cycle, and the computer controller stores 50 menu presets with energy-saving COOL mode, FORCE-FILTER, LOW OIL alert, and BOIL-OUT. A built-in on-board filtration system with a 1/2 hp pump extends oil life. The double-wall stainless cabinet is only 24-1/16 inches wide with a reversible door, and the fryer is built in Montgomery, Alabama, as item 70885 (208V 3-phase) or 70886 (240V 3-phase), with single-phase versions available.
