Specifi cations
Designed to meet high production frying needs with low energy cost
The Ultrafryer Systems P20-18 is a battery of three to
six fryers designed to meet high volume frying needs while
providing the maximum in fuel savings. The P20-18 has
a cooking energy effi ciency of 60.1 percent. The Ultrafryer®
P20-18 fast recovery shortens cooking time, allows for
large loads during batch cooking , and reduces shortening
absorption. Dial thermostat controls, pilot-less electronic
ignition, and melt cycle are standard features on every
fryer, ensuring accurate temperature control and limiting
temperature excursions, producing a perfectly cooked
product while maintaining shortening quality. The Phased
Array Heat Exchanger provides a large surface area and
extended path of travel for the combustible gases, ensuring
fast recovery, uniform heat distribution, and low exhaust
temperatures of 550ºF or less.
