FOODesign immerso-cook 16 direct-fired fryer range

FOODesign has launched the immerso-cook 16 direct-fired fryer range. Suitable for chips, snacks, prepared foods, meat, poultry, seafood, battered and breaded products, the frying system optimises production, lowers operating costs and improves environmental performance.

The fryers feature a belt feed system that can be customised for a wide range of foods to minimise the risk of product damage while maximising throughput speeds. To ensure product quality is not compromised by the waste typically associated with battered and breaded applications, the system’s base-mounted mesh belt conveyor continuously discharges debris to remove all waste from the fryer.

Through a continuous oil filtration process, the fryer maintains the clean oil through particulate removal and fresh oil infeed. This prevents oil overheating and removes the potential for fatty acids and free radicals to form and compromise finished product integrity.

The system offers manufacturers precise temperature control and a high-efficiency heat exchanger. This compact serpentine tube design reduces system footprint by increasing heat transfer to deliver high-quality, uniform products at rapid throughput rates.

The fryer, which is designed in heavy-duty stainless steel for ease of cleaning, servicing and maintenance, can be integrated with other equipment such as batter and breading applicators and drum pre-dusters.
