- Typical capacity
- For this class of equipment, throughput can typically range from several hundred to over a thousand doughnuts per hour, depending on proofing time and frying duration.
- Power supply
- Units of this type commonly require a three-phase electrical supply, often 400V, for heating elements and conveyor motors.
- Heating method
- Belshaw frying lines typically utilise electric heating elements for precise temperature control of the frying oil.
- Footprint
- A Style 4 Across line, including infeed and take-off conveyors, will require a significant linear footprint, typically several metres in length, for efficient operation.
- Oil capacity
- The frying kettle will typically hold a substantial volume of cooking oil, requiring regular filtration and replenishment.
- Material construction
- Components in contact with food are commonly constructed from stainless steel for hygiene and durability.
