Benchstar EF-82E - 2 x 5.5L Double Tank Countertop Electric Fryer

Benchstar EF-82E - 2 x 5.5L Double Tank Countertop Electric Fryer

The Benchstar EF-82E gives cafes, takeaways and food trucks two separate 5.5 litre fry tanks in one compact stainless steel benchtop unit, so you can keep chips apart from seafood or run two batches at once. Each tank has its own thermostat control from +50°C to +190°C, with a safety micro-switch and a 230°C high-limit. It draws 4.6 kW through two standard 10 A plugs, so there is no need for a 15 A circuit. For a single tank, see the EF-81E.
