Product Information

Full details

The Steelmore GF150 is a robust, high-volume floor-standing gas fryer engineered for professional kitchens that demand consistent output and durability. With a substantial 37-liter oil capacity and five high-efficiency vertical tube burners, it is perfect for high-traffic environments needing to produce up to 130 lbs of fried food per hour; however, it requires professional gas installation and significant floor space, making it unsuitable for small or mobile food service setups.

FAQs

Can I install this fryer myself?

No. Due to safety regulations regarding gas appliances, installation must be completed by a qualified, certified gas engineer.

What is the maximum oil temperature?

The mechanical thermostat allows for temperatures up to 204°C, with a safety high-limit cut-off that triggers at 232°C.

Does this unit come with conversion parts for LPG?

Yes, the unit includes LPG conversion jets for facilities that do not have access to a natural gas line.

How do I extend the life of my cooking oil?

Use the built-in cold zone to collect food particles and filter your oil regularly to remove debris before it carbonizes.

What is the hourly capacity for this fryer?

The fryer is capable of producing up to 130 lbs of chips per hour under optimal operating conditions.

Troubleshooting

Burners failing to ignite

Ensure the gas supply valve is fully open and check that the pilot flame is lit; if problems persist, contact a certified gas engineer to inspect the ignition system.

Oil temperature fluctuating inconsistently

Verify the thermostat dial is set correctly and check that the fryer is not overloaded with product, which can cause significant temperature drops.

Slow drain of frying oil

Ensure the oil is warm (but not boiling) to improve viscosity, and check the drain valve for any blockage caused by large food debris.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional heat recovery rates for high-volume frying
  • Large 37-liter tank capacity reduces frequent refill intervals
  • Integrated cold zone effectively reduces oil degradation
  • Includes essential accessories like chromed baskets and conversion jets
  • Sturdy floor-standing design with adjustable leveling legs

Cons

  • Requires professional installation by a certified gas engineer
  • Heavy unit footprint occupies significant kitchen floor space
  • Mechanical controls require manual monitoring compared to digital alternatives

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation must be performed by a qualified gas engineer to ensure the 3/4 NPT rear gas connection meets local safety standards. The unit is supplied as a natural gas appliance but includes LPG conversion jets if your facility utilizes bottled gas. To maintain the unit, use the latch-lock drain valve to filter oil daily, and ensure the cold zone is cleared of sediment. Periodically inspect the burners for debris to ensure efficient combustion. Always ensure the fryer is leveled using the adjustable legs before operation to prevent uneven heating or oil spill risks.
