The Frymaster FPRE317TC is a high-efficiency triple electric fryer battery engineered for high-volume commercial kitchens that demand consistent frying performance, precise temperature recovery, and integrated oil management. Featuring three full-size open frypots with 50 lb. oil capacity each, the unit combines 17 kW heating performance per frypot with Frymaster’s advanced TC electronic switching technology for improved temperature precision, enhanced reliability, and efficient energy utilization. The pulsed power delivery system minimizes stress on electrical components while helping maintain consistent cooking temperatures during peak production periods.
Designed for operational efficiency, the FPRE317TC includes a built-in manual filtration system that simplifies daily oil maintenance and supports longer oil life. Proprietary low-watt density, self-standing swing-up heating elements provide excellent heat transfer while allowing easier frypot cleaning and servicing. Additional operational features such as the deep cold zone, rear oil flush, RTD 1° compensating temperature probe, melt cycle, and boil-out mode contribute to improved product consistency and reduced maintenance demands. Stainless steel frypots, doors, and cabinet sides enhance durability and ease of sanitation, making the FPRE317TC well suited for quick-service restaurants, institutional kitchens, cafeterias, and high-output foodservice operations requiring reliable multi-battery frying capacity.
