preceding the model number of your fryer refers to the number of fryers in a battery. One fryer in a
battery can be a Frymate Dump Station (ERO15 for ER40 and ER50, ERO21 for ER85) (only one per
battery).
ERD Fryers have a solid state thermostat and ERC Fryers have a microprocessor (computer)
thermostat and timer control.
Feature options include Basket Lift(s) with Timer(s); Tri, Twin, or Single Baskets; Filter Ready and
Battery Interplumbing. Finish options include S/S Sides and Casters. S/S Legs are standard.
Your Vulcan fryer is constructed and designed to give long satisfactory service, providing it is properly
installed, adjusted and maintained.
The Mobile Filter is covered under a separate Installation and Operation Manual.
