Koppens 6000/600 Thermal Oil Fryer

• This class of fryer is typically used for continuous frying of coated or uncoated products in medium to large-scale food production.
• Commonly applied in facilities producing poultry, fish, meat substitutes, and various potato products.
• Suitable for operations requiring consistent product quality and high throughput for fried goods.
• Often integrated into larger processing lines for snacks, ready meals, and convenience foods.

Belt width

This unit features a 600mm wide belt, suitable for a range of product sizes.

Fry length

The 6000mm fry length provides ample residence time for thorough cooking.

Heating method

Thermal oil heating is employed, known for precise temperature control and even heat distribution.

Throughput

Throughput for this class of equipment is typically high, depending on product type and desired fry time.

Power supply

Units of this type commonly require a three-phase electrical supply for motors and controls, with the thermal oil boiler requiring a separate power source (not included).

Footprint

Given the 6000mm fry length, this unit will require a substantial footprint within a processing facility.

Key features

• What is thermal oil heating?

  Thermal oil heating uses a heat transfer fluid (thermal oil) circulated through a boiler and then through heat exchangers in the fryer. This method offers excellent temperature stability and uniform heat distribution, reducing oil degradation.

• What maintenance considerations are there for a used thermal oil fryer?

Gas analyzers and detectors are regarded as essential precision instruments in pharmaceutical and biotech laboratories. Buyers typically prioritise calibration records and maintenance history when purchasing used equipment. These instruments are valued for their accuracy, repeatability, and reliability in critical analytical processes. Key considerations include ensuring proper documentation of service intervals, verifying sensor functionality, and confirming compatibility with existing laboratory systems. Well-maintained units often perform comparably to new equipment at considerably lower cost, making them attractive for budget-conscious facilities requiring validated analytical capability.
