The Frymaster 2FQE80U FilterQuick® 80 electric fryer is built for high-production commercial kitchens that require larger frying capacity, strong energy efficiency, and simplified oil management. Featuring two open frypots with 80-lbs. oil capacity per frypot and an 18" × 18" frying area per frypot, this unit is well suited for demanding menu applications such as bone-in chicken, fresh-breaded foods, and high-volume fried items. Frymaster’s proprietary self-standing, swing-up, low-watt density heating elements support efficient heat transfer and long service life, while the platform delivers 83% ASTM energy efficiency and up to 84 lbs. of fries per hour.
The standard FQ4000 easyTouch® touchscreen controller simplifies cooking and filtration with programmable recipes, intuitive operation, oil monitoring capability, and cloud connectivity. Built-in automatic filtration with rear oil flush helps preserve oil quality and reduce manual maintenance, while the optional Oil Quality Sensor supports real-time oil health monitoring. With a deep cold zone, RTD 1° compensating temperature probe, 8 GPM pump, front oil disposal with 6 ft. washdown hose, drain safety switch, and stainless steel frypot, door, and cabinet sides, the 2FQE80U is designed for quick-service restaurants, institutional kitchens, grocery delis, and high-volume foodservice operations focused on consistent output and lower operating costs.
