The 18 TS Fryer is ideal for multi-product use.
The 18 TS allows you to cook up to 120 lbs. of frozen
french fries or 150 lbs. of chicken per hour with an
input of 28.6 kW rated at 240 volts.

Keating saves oil costs in three ways:

• BETTER FRY POT DESIGN

• LARGER COLD ZONE

• INSTANT RECOVERY

1. You shouldn’t have to wait on the fryer. A properly
designed fry pot ensures that the fryer has recovered its
temperature before the end of the cooking cycle. Keating
“INSTANT RECOVERY”®means continuous performance.

2. The Keating frying vessel is 27% Cold Zone, the food
particles collected in the cold zone are unheated and
therefore do not carbonize and contribute to premature
shortening breakdown.

3. Keating’s “INSTANT RECOVERY”®feature means
frying at lower temperatures (325° – 335°F) extending
oil life while enhancing product quality.

Easy to clean

Keating uses only 304 stainless steel in its frying
vessel design and polishes each vessel. The
smoother the surface, the less carbon build-up
occurs, making cleaning easier. A full 1- 1/4" front
drain allows easy draining of oil.
Safety controls ensure safe and accurate cooking.
The patented and precise thermostat controls
cooking temperatures to ± 3°F.
Hi-Limit control protects against the oil and fryer
overheating.
Each fryer goes through a rigorous 100% test before
shipping with every component carefully checked.
The actual temperature test chart is included with
each fryer.
