Description
The Frymaster FPGL230CA OCF30G is a high-performance dual-frypot commercial gas fryer battery engineered for operators seeking maximum oil efficiency, consistent product quality, and streamlined kitchen operations. Built around Frymasters advanced oil-conserving open-pot technology, the FPGL230CA delivers the production capability of larger traditional fryers while using approximately 40% less oil and 10% less energy. Its compact 30 lb frypot design maintains a higher ratio of fresh-to-used oil, helping extend oil life, reduce oil breakdown, and lower overall operating costs.
Equipped with Frymasters SMART4U® technology package, the FPGL230CA includes an integrated Auto Top-Off system that automatically replenishes oil from the internal Jug-in-Box (JIB) supply, supporting consistent oil levels and reducing manual intervention. The built-in filtration system encourages frequent filtering through a simple two-lever process that helps preserve oil quality and maintain food consistency during high-volume production periods. The advanced 3000 controller provides programmable cooking management with automatic load compensation and operational monitoring capabilities that support improved food quality, oil management, and workflow efficiency.
The fryer battery utilizes durable infrared burners for fast recovery and efficient heat transfer, while the deep cold zone and center-mounted RTD temperature probe enhance frying consistency and oil management performance. Independent frypot construction allows individual frypots to be serviced or replaced while maintaining operation of the remaining fryers, minimizing downtime in busy commercial kitchens. Constructed with stainless steel frypots, doors, and cabinet sides, the FPGL230CA is designed for demanding quick-service, chain restaurant, institutional, and high-volume foodservice environments focused on labor efficiency, sustainability, and long-term operating cost reduction.
