Arilex 100FRYGCN 100 cm gas fry-top with smooth 15 mm hard chrome plate

Description

The fry-top has a 15 mm steel plate with hard chrome plating · 100 cm

Why we recommend it

The fry-top is the same machine as the ground steel version, with the plate coated in hard chrome. The change is not in how it griddles, but in the work it takes after service: it does not rust, so it needs no seasoning or oiling, and almost nothing sticks, so it cleans with the scraper and a cloth at every shift change. It also keeps its flatness and appearance for years, which shows when the machine works many hours a day and passes through different hands.

The fry-top, with 918 × 396 mm of usable surface and 16.5 kW spread over six burners with three independent valves, is the format for kitchens working with an à la carte menu and volume: it can have three dishes on the go, each zone at its own temperature, without any of them dropping when cold produce goes on.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between the ground plate and the hard chrome plate?

It is the same machine; what changes is the plate finish. Ground steel is machine-ground until completely flat and needs seasoning with oil. Hard chrome does not rust, needs no seasoning and almost nothing sticks to it, so it is cleaned with the scraper at each shift change.

What gas does this fry-top run on?

The fry-top is supplied set up for butane and propane, and includes the injectors to convert it to natural gas. It has piezo ignition and a safety thermocouple.

Does it need an extractor hood?

Yes. The fry-top works with an open plate and needs a hood with enough extraction above it, sized for the power of the unit.

How much space does the fry-top take up?

It measures 1,000 × 587 × 364 mm. The measurement includes the rear splashback, so it is worth checking the space with that height and leaving air space behind.

Does the plate need seasoning?

No. Hard chrome does not rust, so it needs neither seasoning nor greasing. Just avoid heavy knocks and abrasive products.

What warranty and delivery time does it have?

Shipping takes 3 to 5 days throughout Spain and the unit includes one year of free technical service.
