Asber AEF-75-S 19 1/2 In. Gas Floor Fryer, 75 lb. Oil Capacity, 152,000 BTU

Asber AEF-75-S 19 1/2 In. Gas Floor Fryer, 75 lb. Oil Capacity, 152,000 BTU

The Asber AEF-75-S Gas Floor Fryer

The Asber AEF-75-S is a 75 lb. gas floor fryer for kitchens that fry all day: 4 guitar type burners at 38,000 BTU each drive 152,000 BTU into the oil, and stainless steel baffles mounted on the heat exchanger tubes squeeze the heat out of every BTU before it leaves the flue. Fast recovery is the whole game in frying, and this burner and baffle package is built for back to back basket drops.

Welded 16 Gauge Stainless Tank With Peened Finish

The fry tank is welded 16 gauge stainless steel with an extra smooth peened finish, which matters twice a week when it is boil-out time: carbon releases from the smooth walls instead of bonding to them. The 1-1/4 In. drain valve dumps oil fast, and the built in flue detector plus factory-assembled flue mean the unit installs without sheet metal work.

392°F to 752°F Electromechanical Thermostat

The electromechanical thermostat spans 392°F to 752°F, covering everything from low-temp blanching to hard finishing, with simple controls a rotating crew cannot misprogram. Two nickel plated oblong wire mesh baskets with cool grip coated handles come in the box, and the all stainless construction across the interior, exterior front, and sides cleans up with a wipe.

Serviceable by Design

Fryer downtime is measured in lost menu items, so this unit keeps service simple: the thermostat is electromechanical rather than electronic, the burners are accessible from the front, and the drain valve, baskets, and crumb screen all remove without tools. Stainless surfaces inside and out take the daily degrease, and the incorporated flue means no sheet metal contractor at install time.

Sized for high fry volume. This unit ships on 6 In. adjustable legs. Plan a 3/4 In. or larger gas line, hood ventilation, 6 In. clearance to combustibles, and specify NG or LPG plus altitude above 2,000 ft. at order time.

    About Gas Fryers

    Commercial gas fryers are essential in most professional kitchens. They heat quickly, recover fast between batches, and usually cost less to run than electric models. Choose countertop or floor models based on your menu and volume. For a small cafe, a compact countertop fryer may be all you need. High-volume restaurants should stick with floor models or industrial gas fryers that can handle nonstop use. Check if your kitchen uses natural gas or propane before you order.

    Common Types and Configurations

    • Gas countertop fryers: Compact units that sit on a prep counter. Good for smaller operations or as a supplemental fryer station.
    • Gas floor fryers: Full size units with higher oil capacity and output. Standard in high-volume restaurant kitchens.
    • Commercial propane deep fryers: Run on propane instead of natural gas. Common in food trucks, outdoor catering, and locations without a natural gas line.
    • Small commercial gas fryers: Compact countertop units for lower volume operations or tight kitchen spaces.
    • Double vat fryers: Two separate vats allow you to fry different items simultaneously without flavor transfer.

    What to Look at Before You Buy

    • Oil capacity: Measured in pounds. Countertop fryers hold 15 to 30 pounds. Floor models range from 40 to 80 pounds or more. Choose a size that matches your volume.
    • BTU output: Higher BTU means faster heat recovery. This matters in high-volume kitchens where the fryer runs nonstop during service.
    • Gas type: Most fryers use natural gas. If you need a commercial gas deep fryer that runs on propane, check that LP conversion is available before you order.
    • Number of vats: Single vat fryers are fine for simple menus. Double vats let you fry different items at once without cross-contamination.
    • Filtration system: Some fryers have built-in oil filtration. This extends oil life and cuts operating costs.
    • Controls: Manual controls are simple and reliable. Digital controls let you program cook times for consistency across staff.
    • Installation: Gas fryers need a licensed installer, proper ventilation, and a commercial hood. Check your gas line size before you order.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What size commercial gas fryer do I need for my restaurant?

    It depends on your menu and volume. Small gas fryers and countertop units work for low volume or as a backup. If frying is a main part of your menu, go with a floor model or industrial gas fryer. Plan for 1 to 1.5 pounds of oil capacity for every pound of food you fry per hour. If frying is central to your kitchen, size up to avoid bottlenecks.

    What is the difference between a countertop and floor gas fryer?

    Countertop fryers are compact, hold less oil, and fit in tight spaces or low-volume kitchens. Floor fryers are larger, hold more oil, and are built for nonstop, high-volume frying. If your fryer runs all service, choose a floor model for better output and faster recovery.

    How many pounds of oil does a commercial gas fryer hold?

    Countertop fryers hold 15 to 30 pounds of oil. Standard floor models hold 40 to 50 pounds. High-capacity floor fryers can hold 80 pounds or more. More oil keeps temperatures stable during heavy use and cuts recovery time.
