Batch capacity : 5 kg Frying temperature : 80–120 °C Vacuum : −0.098 MPa Model reference: 5 kg · Item 1601686234432 · Built to order in Shanghai Overview ## What is the 5 kg Pilot Vacuum Fryer for R&D and Samples? The 5 kg Pilot Vacuum Fryer for R&D and Samples is a batch low-temperature vacuum fryer with a capacity of 5 kg per batch, suited to recipe development, R&D labs and sample production. It fries recipe development, papaya chips and fruit and vegetable samples at about 80–120 °C under a vacuum of −0.09 to −0.098 MPa and spins off oil in a centrifuge before the vacuum is released. ### Low-temperature frying Water boils at roughly 40–50 °C under vacuum, so food fries at 80–120 °C and keeps its natural colour. ### De-oiling under vacuum The basket spins before pressure returns, removing surface oil before it is drawn into the chip. ### Longer oil life Lower temperature and an oxygen-poor chamber slow oil oxidation. ### Recipe control PLC touchscreen stores frying temperature, vacuum and time per product. ### Hygienic SUS304 build Stainless food-contact parts that are easy to clean between products. ### Tested before shipping Machinery test report and outgoing inspection video provided. ### Typical applications - Recipe development - Papaya chips - Fruit and vegetable samples ### Model range Vacuum fryer capacity comparison | Batch capacity | Best for | Models | | --- | --- | --- | | 5 kg | Recipe development, r&d labs and sample production | 1 | | 10 kg | Pilot production, specialty snacks and small brands | 1 | | 100 kg | Commercial production for growing snack brands | 1 | | 150 kg | Continuous daily production for fruit and vegetable chips | 1 | | 300 kg | High-volume production for established snack manufacturers | 1 | | 100–300 kg | Industrial plants that need a configurable frying system with de-oiling | 1 | Specifications ## Technical specifications 5 kg Pilot Vacuum Fryer for R&D and Samples | | | | --- | --- | | Machine type | Low-temperature batch vacuum fryer | | Capacity per batch | 5 kgRaw product; varies with density | | Best for | Recipe development, r&d labs and sample production | | Frying temperature | 80–120 °CTypical | | Working vacuum | −0.09 to −0.098 MPaTypical | | De-oiling | Centrifugal, under vacuum | | Heating | Electric (steam or gas on request) | | Food-contact material | SUS304 stainless steel | | Core components | Engine, motor, vacuum pump, PLC | | Controls | PLC with touchscreen and recipe settings | | Applications | Recipe development, papaya chips and fruit and vegetable samples | | Machinery test report | Provided | | Video outgoing inspection | Provided | | Warranty | Long-term warrantyTerms set out in the sales contract | | Place of origin | Shanghai, China | Values marked “typical” are planning figures.

Process ## How it works 1. **Load** — prepared, often pre-frozen product goes into the basket. 2. **Vacuum fry** — the chamber is evacuated to about −0.098 MPa and the basket is lowered into oil at 80–120 °C. 3. **De-oil** — the basket lifts and spins in a centrifuge before the vacuum is released. FAQ ## Questions about this machine What is the capacity of this vacuum fryer? It handles 5 kg of raw product per batch. Actual throughput depends on the product's density and frying time, typically 20–40 minutes per batch for fruit chips. What temperature does a vacuum fryer use? Typically 80–120 °C oil temperature, compared with 160–190 °C in an atmospheric deep fryer. Can it fry recipe development? Yes. This fryer is configured for recipe development, papaya chips and fruit and vegetable samples, and also handles most fruit, vegetables, mushrooms and nuts. We can run your sample before you order. Which heating options are available? Electric heating is standard; steam or gas heating can be supplied on request to suit your site. Why are vacuum-fried chips less oily? Because the basket is spun in a centrifuge while still under vacuum, much of the surface oil is removed before the pressure change would draw it into the product.
