Product Overview
The Waldorf FN8224E is a 450mm twin pan electric fryer that gives kitchens the flexibility to fry two different products, or two separate oils, simultaneously in the same footprint as a single pan unit. Each pan holds 12 litres of oil and the fryer delivers a combined production rate of 31kg per hour, making it a practical choice for venues with diverse menus. Three stainless steel heating elements per pan provide 17kW of total power, and mechanical thermostat controls keep operation simple. The hinge-out heating elements allow easy cleaning without removing them from the unit.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the advantage of a twin pan fryer over a single pan?
A twin pan fryer lets you keep two different oils separate, so you can fry fish in one pan and chips in another without cross-contamination, or fry halal and non-halal products separately. It also allows different frying temperatures in each pan simultaneously.
How does the FN8224E compare to the FN8127E single pan?
Both models are 450mm wide with the same total power and production rate. The FN8224E splits that capacity into two independent 12L pans, while the FN8127E has one 27L pan. If you need to run multiple oils or accommodate dietary requirements, the twin pan is the better option.
What is the difference between the FN8224E and FN8224EE?
The FN8224EE upgrades to digital display electronic controls for greater temperature precision. All other specifications, including oil capacity, power, and dimensions, are identical.
Does the FN8224E come with baskets for both pans?
It is supplied with two standard baskets. Additional baskets can be ordered separately to ensure a dedicated set for each pan.
What power supply is required?
The FN8224E requires a three-phase power supply. Please verify your electrical setup before ordering.
