14 x 15 in. (356 x 381 mm) at sho rtening level. This 122,00 0
BTU/hr. (30,730 kCa l/hr.) (35.8 kW) mode l is specifically
designed for h igh-volume frying an d produces 80 lbs. of
french fries per hour frozen to done. The exclusive 1° action
thermostat a nticipates rapid rate of temperature rise,
reducing temp erature overshoot, exten ding shortening
