Product Overview
The Blue Seal GT45 is a 450mm single pan gas fryer from Moffat — the same machine as the Waldorf FN8120G in Blue Seal's livery. The GT45 steps up from the 400mm range with a larger 20 litre oil capacity and two infrared burners delivering 90 MJ/hr total heat. Infrared burners transfer heat directly into the oil rather than relying on convection, which means less energy is wasted up the flue and more of the heat goes into frying — giving faster recovery times and more consistent oil temperature between loads. The fryer is also built to accept a matching oil filter unit that rolls in underneath the machine and connects directly for filtration, then rolls back out and stores under the fryer — no separate storage needed. Stainless steel pan with a 10 year warranty. Supplied for natural gas with LPG conversion kit included.
Best for: Restaurants, cafes and takeaways that need a step up in oil capacity and frying efficiency from the 400mm range, with the option to add an integrated oil filter system.

Why infrared burners?
From the GT45 and FN8120G upward, all Moffat fryers use infrared burners rather than open flame or U-burners. Infrared burners emit radiant heat that transfers directly into the oil rather than heating the surrounding air. This means a greater proportion of the gas energy goes into the oil rather than being lost up the flue — resulting in faster heat-up, better temperature recovery between batches and lower gas consumption over a service period.
