Once again Lincat are at the forefront of innovative technology.

Their new Vortech High Efficiency fryers, the OG7115 and OG7115F are way ahead of existing fryers in reducing energy usage helping your pocket in these cost conscious times, also reducing your carbon footprint. Current European regulations require 50% min. efficiency ratings but these new Lincat Vortech fryers boast energy efficiency ratings of 97%. Another plus, besides reducing operating costs, is that your output will be significantly higher. So much so that you may require fewer units to satisfy your customers needs, reducing your costs still further.

There are two new fryers in the Lincat Vortech range, both similar in specification and performance but the OG7115/F has an integral High Efficiency filtration system. This option removes the need to have external filtration there for saving space. Built in filtration in the Lincat Vortech 7115/F also reduces the chance of accidental spillage and aids disposal costs thereby reducing environmental impact.

It is of course easy to claim higher efficient without explaining why this is so, but with Lincat’s Vortech new fryers the technological advances are plain to see.

Much of the energy savings are due to a new design of pre-mix burners, this represents a major step forward in burner design. Air drawn into the combustion chamber is mixed with gas in a very efficient way, generating heat, typically 25% hotter then normal fryers.

Secondly like most modern domestic boilers which re-use spent combustion gases Lincat’s Vortech fryers re-use the hot combustion gases that would otherwise be lost to the atmosphere and re-direct them around the tank to extract the maximum possible heat energy, then channelling them around the fryer tank instead of being exhausted into the atmosphere.

Finally Lincat Vortech fryers are far more intelligent with regards to temperature control.  Electronic control rather then manual reacts significantly quicker, thereby preserving stability giving better results and improved energy savings. These advances combined together make much greater use of the available energy. Flue gas temperatures are significantly reduced because more of the heat is retained at the start of the process and delivered where it is needed.

See below for a diagram of the workings of the Lincat  Vortech Gas Fryer system and also a chart indicating the cost savings that can be had by using the Lincat Vortech Fryers and particulalrly the Lincat Vortech 7115/F  with filter system.

Both of these great fryers from Lincat come with a number of accessories as standard, including a spun wire, nickel plated basket, a batter plate, tank lid and in the case of the OG7115/F, 6 carbon filters.

There is also the optional extra of a half size basket for both fryers and a pack of 30 filters for the 7115/F.

It is also worth mentioning that Lincat Vortech fryers can be purchased with confidence as they are backed by a comprehensive UK two year parts and labour warranty.
