Pitco SGLVRF-2/FD ROV Gas Rack Fryer System, 2 Vats with Filter Drawer, 76 lb Oil Capacity Each, Natural Gas

The Pitco SGLVRF-2/FD is a reduced oil volume gas rack fryer system with two 76 lb frypots and built-in automatic filtration, configured for natural gas. Each 14" x 18" frypot has a 10" cook depth and fires at 125,000 BTU/hr, built to rack-fry bone-in chicken at volume.

High-Production Rack Frying with Less Oil

Pitco ROV rack fryers are built for fried-chicken programs. Each 14" x 18" frypot has a 10" cook depth and a lift-assist system with a five-slot rack holder, cooking up to 64 pieces of bone-in chicken (8-piece cut) or sixty chicken strips on four racks per load. Tray hooks make loading and unloading racks easier, and the fryer also accepts traditional fry baskets.

The design uses about 13% less oil than a comparable rack fryer. Automatic top-off keeps the oil at the correct level from a built-in reserve with a low-oil warning, and advanced automatic filtration with a 10 GPM pump, multiple rinse jets and filter-in-place sensors keeps oil clean with minimal labor.
