2836
7-1
The 2836 is a large electric fryer used principally in Wal-Mart
kitchens to prepare chicken in large quantities. The original
design used a round-bar element and had float switches; later
units have flat-bar elements and no float switch.
Unique Physical Characteristics:
•
The unit is big. Wal-Mart cooks 100 pieces of chicken
at a time in the 36Kw frypot. The amp draw demands
special wiring for the store. The unit is also sold in a
two 28Kw frypot configuration.
Where Used:
•
Wal-Mart, however, it is not marketed exclusively to Wal-Mart.
Common Model Number
