GasMax Superfast LPG Gas Tube Fryer – RC400ELPG

Description

GasMax Superfast LPG Gas Tube Single Vat Fryer — RC400ELPG (110 MJ/h)

If your busy restaurant, takeaway venue, or commercial kitchen requires high-output frying in a compact footprint, then selecting a heavy-duty single-tank gas tube fryer is essential. Specifically, the GasMax Superfast LPG Gas Tube Fryer (RC400ELPG) is engineered to deliver a 35 kg/hr production rate, rapid temperature recovery, and exceptional thermal efficiency across fish, chips, chicken, and specialty fried menu items.

Executive Overview

High-volume commercial kitchens face constant pressure to serve large quantities of crispy fried food quickly during peak service hours. Because oil temperature drops during heavy batch loading lead to greasy food and high oil degradation, GasMax equips the RC400ELPG with a 120 MJ multi-jet 4-tube burner system operating at 110 MJ/h consumption. Consequently, heat is transferred efficiently across the 26-litre stainless steel tank (22-litre recommended oil capacity) for superfast recovery between frying cycles.

Furthermore, featuring a deep cold zone beneath the burner tubes, food particles and loose sediment fall away from heat sources without burning. As a result, commercial operators extend oil life, maintain clean food flavor, and simplify end-of-shift cleaning via the 32 mm full-port drain valve. Therefore, hospitality venues gain reliable frying output, fast maintenance access, and long-term durability backed standard by a 2-Year Parts & Labour Warranty (extendable to 4 Years Total Warranty upon online registration).

Key Performance Features

• High-Output Multi-Jet Tube System (110 MJ/h): Specifically, the 120 MJ 4-tube burner array delivers intense thermal transfer for rapid preheating and instant temperature recovery under heavy frozen loads.

• Impressive 35 kg/hr Production Rate: Because it produces up to 35 kg of crispy fried food per hour, it easily keeps pace with demanding peak service periods.

• Extended Oil Life Cold Zone: In addition, sediment and food particles drop below the active heating tubes into a cool zone, preventing burnt debris and preserving oil quality.

• Reliable Robertshaw Millivolt Control: For example, mechanical thermostatic controls (120°C to 200°C) and built-in flame failure protection operate entirely on millivolt power—requiring no electrical power connection.

• Heavy-Duty All-Stainless Construction: Consequently, stainless steel front, door, tank, trim, basket hanger, and included lid ensure maximum durability and simple washdown hygiene.

• 32 mm Clog-Resistant Ball Drain Valve: Meanwhile, the 32 mm full-port drain valve allows fast, safe oil filtration and vessel emptying without clogging.

• Up to 4-Year Warranty Coverage: Finally, supported standard by a 2-Year Parts & Labour Warranty, extendable by an additional 2 Years Parts Only when registered online within 14 days of invoice.

Technical Specifications

Gas Supply, Installation & Safety Notice

• Gas Fitting & Commissioning Notice: The GasMax RC400ELPG is a commercial gas appliance requiring a dedicated LPG gas line and ½” inlet connection. Therefore, it must be installed, commissioned, and pressure-tested by a licensed commercial gas fitter in accordance with Australian standards (AS/NZS 5601).

• Ventilation Requirements: Commercial gas fryers must be operated underneath an approved commercial exhaust canopy with adequate ventilation clearance.

Operating & Cleaning Guidelines

1. Setup & Lighting: Ensure your qualified gas fitter has connected the LPG line. Check that the 32 mm drain valve is fully closed and fill the tank with fresh commercial frying oil to the fill mark (22L recommended). Light the standby pilot following the millivolt control instructions.

2. Preheating & Frying: Turn the Robertshaw control dial to your desired cooking temperature (120°C to 200°C). Load the two stainless steel baskets with chips, fish, or chicken and lower them into the oil once preheated.

3. Daily Care & Oil Drainage: At the end of service, allow the oil to cool. Open the 32 mm full-port drain valve to empty oil into a filtering container. Lift off the removable stainless steel basket hanger and wipe down the tank walls and stainless exterior using a mild food-safe commercial degreaser.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Does the GasMax RC400ELPG require a mains electrical connection?

No. The fryer uses a self-generating Robertshaw millivolt control system with a standby pilot, operating completely independent of mains electricity.

2. How does the cold zone extend cooking oil life?

The heating tubes are suspended above the bottom of the tank, creating a cooler zone beneath them. Crumbs and batter drop into this area where temperatures are lower, preventing burnt carbon buildup that spoils oil flavor.

3. What is the production capacity of this single-tank model?

The RC400ELPG delivers an impressive production rate of up to 35 kg of crispy fried food per hour.

4. What warranty is included with the GasMax RC400ELPG?

The fryer comes backed standard by a 2-Year Parts & Labour Warranty, extendable by an additional 2 Years Parts Only upon online product registration within 14 days of invoice.
