Description

The Frymaster RE17TC is a high-efficiency electric fryer designed for high-volume commercial kitchens that require precise temperature control, dependable frying output, and improved energy performance. Built with Frymasters proprietary self-standing, swing-up, low-watt density heating elements, the RE17TC delivers efficient heat transfer while allowing easier access for cleaning and maintenance. Its TC configuration uses advanced electronic switching technology to pulse energy to the elements in smaller increments, providing more reliable temperature response and improved cooking consistency compared with traditional on/off contactor systems.

The insulated frypot design helps reduce standby energy consumption by up to 10%, while the CM3.5 controller and RTD 1° compensating temperature probe support accurate oil temperature control and consistent high-quality production. A deep cold zone, rear oil flush system, full-port drain valve, melt cycle, and boil-out mode improve oil management and simplify daily cleaning. The RE17TC also supports optional split pots, basket lifts, spreader cabinets, and external oil discharge, making it suitable for varied commercial frying applications.
