Industrial food processing fryer

Ensure consistent frying quality and enhanced sediment removal for high-volume food production, reducing operation costs and improving oil management with advanced heat exchange and filtration technology.

Fires and Manages Oil for Consistent Product Quality

The GEA EasyFry XL is a cutting-edge industrial fryer system designed to optimize high-volume food production. Featuring a modular setup, it simplifies continuous frying processes with advanced sediment removal and oil management technologies. Ideal for producing items like potato chips, chicken nuggets, and mozzarella sticks, it ensures uniform heating and minimizes ‘twins’ for consistent quality. The fryer integrates a programmable GEA oil management system and a dual sediment removal design, enhancing both safety and sanitation. It boasts industry-leading heating capacity with an electrolytically polished heat exchanger, reducing energy consumption through efficient heat transfer. This system supports seamless operation with PLC control and is equipped with a Clean-In-Place (CIP) system for efficient cleaning, significantly lowering maintenance downtime. Tailor-made configurations are available to meet specific production needs, supported by GEA’s engineering expertise.
