UNSURPASSED LEVEL OF EFFICIENCY

Independent testing conducted at Pacific Gas & Electric’s Foodservice
Technology Center has just proven that Alto-Shaam’s ASF-75G gas fryer
is the industry’s highest efficiency gas fryer. FSTC is considered the
national leader in commercial food service equipment testing, using
American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) test methods. Fryer
performance is based on preheat time and energy consumption, idle
energy consumption rate, pilot energy consumption rate, cooking-energy
efficiency and production capacity.

The Fry-Tech gas fryer offers a unique heat exchanger system to provide
faster oil temperature recovery. In terms of efficiency, the heat exchanger
design significantly reduces connected gas demand. It also lowers flue
temperatures to put less demand on the HVAC system and requires a less
powerful CMF hood system.

"Alto-Shaam’s ASF-75G gas fryer demonstrated a very fast

cook time and rapid oil temperature recovery during cooking.

This type of performance will provide a food service operator

with a workhorse fryer than can handle high volume, while

its 71.0% cooking-energy efficiency places it among the top

performing large vat gas fryers on the market."

Testing in the Fry-Tech gas fryer indicated an average oil temperature recovery
time of slightly over 10 seconds [Chart A], resulting in a per hour production
rate of 134 pounds (±07). The conclusion of testing resulted in a cooking
energy efficiency rating of 71-percent for the Fry-Tech gas fryer versus a
55- to 64-percent rating for competitor fryers of the same type. [Chart B]

In addition to its energy and production efficiencies, the fryer offers an
optional electronic dual control with programming to lift baskets
independently or with a synchronized lift. The programmable, solid-state
control features one-touch cooking operation to help address labor issues
and provides a full range of additional programming functions and features.
Also offered is the choice of dual baskets or a single, large basket.
