Commercial Gas Floor Fryer, 88,000 BTU, 4 Independent Burners, Welded Stainless Steel Tank with Cool Zone","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Atosa ATFS-50ES is the most-specified configuration of Atosa's ATFS-ES floor-fryer family, sized for full-service restaurant lines, high-volume QSR fry stations, and bar-and-grill kitchens that run fries, wings, and breaded proteins through lunch and dinner service. Four independent 22,000 BTU burners put 88,000 BTU under a 50-pound welded stainless steel tank, so a full basket of frozen wings or breaded chicken pulls the oil temperature back inside the cook window before the next ticket lands. Independent manual control lets you idle burners between rushes and bring them up to full output when the line picks back up, which keeps gas consumption matched to the actual fry load instead of running flat-out all shift.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e88,000 BTU Total Across 4 Independent 22,000 BTU Burners with Standing Pilots\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe ATFS-50ES uses 4 heavy-duty burners with standing flame and standby pilots, controlled independently so the back burners can hold idle while the front burners crash-fry a hot load. Standing pilots mean no electrical hookup is required, so the fryer can be sited on a gas-only cookline and stays operational through a power outage as long as gas pressure holds. The 4-burner layout matches the 50-pound tank capacity so heat reaches every quadrant of the oil rather than concentrating at the center, which means the basket recovers evenly whether you load it to the back or the front.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWelded Stainless Steel Tank with Cool Zone for Longer Oil Life\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 50-pound tank is welded stainless steel rather than spot-welded or seamed, which is what holds oil-tight through years of thermal cycling between idle and full-load fry temperatures. A cool zone at the bottom of the tank pulls food particles, breading sloughs, and carbon below the burner heat path so they settle out instead of carbonizing in the cook zone. That extends oil life between change-outs and keeps the flavor profile cleaner across a long service. The wire mesh crumb screen and basket hanger ship standard so you can rest baskets above the oil to drain between drops without dripping on the floor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e200°F to 400°F Millivolt Thermostat with 100% Safety Shut-Off\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA high-quality millivolt thermostat holds the oil at any setpoint from 200°F up to 400°F automatically, covering the full range from low-temperature par-cook through high-temperature finish fry. A safety valve with an automatic voltage stabilizing function and a self-reset high temperature limiting device shut gas to the burners if the thermostat ever loses signal or the oil overheats, so the fryer fails closed rather than running away during an unattended moment on the line. The millivolt design means the controls run off the pilot's own thermocouple voltage, no plug or outlet needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eRoll-Around Footprint with Two Nickel-Plated Baskets Standard\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFour casters ship standard so the ATFS-50ES rolls out from under the hood for back-of-house cleaning and rolls back into position without lifting. Two nickel-plated baskets with coated handles come in the box, so the fryer is ready to run on day one. The unit is available in natural gas and liquid propane configurations and uses a 3\/4 inch NPT rear gas connection with regulator, dropping onto a standard commercial gas stub-out without adapter fittings. An optional leg kit replaces the casters for fixed installs; a splash guard, fryer cover, and joiner strip are available for batteries with sister fryers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is the most-specified size in the ATFS-ES family because it handles the fry volume of a typical full-service restaurant or QSR without burning floor space. If you're running a single fryer in a low-volume cafe or sandwich shop, the 40-pound ATFS-40ES sister SKU is the right call and saves on gas. If fries hit every ticket through a high-volume dinner service, step up to the 75-pound ATFS-75ES. Plan for a 3\/4 inch NPT rear gas connection on a natural gas or propane stub-out, and budget for a Type I exhaust hood overhead since this is open-flame gas cooking equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atosa","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51312354132253,"sku":"ATFS-50ES","price":1341.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/4716\/2909\/files\/57096_up_ATFS-50ES_main_52923500-6ea8-4311-aa2a-5fbad58f8c7f.jpg?v=1779320160","url":"https:\/\/thechefstore.com\/products\/atosa-atfs-50es-50-lb-commercial-gas-floor-fryer-88-000-btu-4-independent-burners-welded-stainless-steel-tank-with-cool-zone","provider":"TheChefStore.Com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
