Alto-Shaam ASF-75G - Manual

Independent testing conducted at Pacific Gas & Electric’s Foodservice

Technology Center has just proven that Alto-Shaam’s ASF-75G gas fryer

is the industry’s highest efficiency gas fryer. FSTC is considered the

national leader in commercial food service equipment testing, using

American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) test methods. Fryer

performance is based on preheat time and energy consumption, idle

energy consumption rate, pilot energy consumption rate, cooking-energy

efficiency and production capacity.

The Fry-Tech gas fryer offers a unique heat exchanger system to provide

faster oil temperature recovery. In terms of efficiency, the heat exchanger

design significantly reduces connected gas demand. It also lowers flue

temperatures to put less demand on the HVAC system and requires a less

powerful CMF hood system.

Testing in the Fry-Tech gas fryer indicated an average oil temperature recovery

time of slightly over 10 seconds [Chart A], resulting in a per hour production

rate of 134 pounds (±07). The conclusion of testing resulted in a cooking

energy efficiency rating of 71-percent for the Fry-Tech gas fryer versus a

55- to 64-percent rating for competitor fryers of the same type. [Chart B]

In addition to its energy and production efficiencies, the fryer offers an

optional electronic dual control with programming to lift baskets

independently or with a synchronized lift. The programmable, solid-state

control features one-touch cooking operation to help address labor issues

and provides a full range of additional programming functions and features.

Also offered is the choice of dual baskets or a single, large basket.

"Alto-Shaam’s ASF-75G gas fryer demonstrated a very fast

cook time and rapid oil temperature recovery during cooking.

This type of performance will provide a food service operator

with a workhorse fryer than can handle high volume, while

its 71.0% cooking-energy efficiency places it among the top

performing large vat gas fryers on the market."
