FriFri Precision 422 Twin Tank Free Standing Electric Fryer

The FriFri Precision 422 is a free-standing twin-tank electric fryer designed for commercial kitchens where consistent frying quality and high throughput are non-negotiable. Each tank operates independently, allowing different products to be fried simultaneously — a practical advantage in kitchens running varied menus. The unit runs on three-phase power and is built to stainless steel commercial standards throughout.

In a busy service environment, temperature stability is one of the most important factors in frying quality. The Precision 422 maintains oil temperature to within ±1°C of the target setting, which helps reduce oil absorption into food and produces consistently crisp results even across back-to-back batches. The adaptive cooking function adjusts cycle times based on batch size, which is a meaningful safeguard during peak service when loading varies and operator attention is stretched. Each tank achieves a throughput of around 17kg per hour, making this a capable unit for high-demand services.

Beyond temperature control, the Precision 422 is designed with practical kitchen operation in mind:

• The xFri filtration system allows hot oil to be filtered safely during service in under five minutes, helping maintain oil quality without stopping the fryer for long periods.
• Hinged heating elements with two tilt positions make tank draining and cleaning more straightforward at the end of service.
• Radiused internal corners in the pressed tank reduce food trap points and simplify cleaning.
• A digital timer with audible alert supports consistent cooking across different operators.
• An optional LiftFri automatic basket lifting system is available for kitchens that need to reduce reliance on manual monitoring.

Installation requires a three-phase electrical supply, so this is not a unit that can simply be plugged in on a standard single-phase circuit. At 79kg, positioning and any repositioning will require appropriate resource, and the footprint should be checked carefully against available run space and extraction alignment before ordering. This is a floor-standing unit suited to kitchens with a fixed frying station rather than flexible counter configurations.

The Precision 422 is well suited to pubs, restaurants, and contract catering operations running multi-product menus where independent tank control adds genuine operational flexibility. It would be equally at home in a hotel banqueting kitchen or a high-volume staff restaurant. Smaller operations with lighter frying requirements may find a single-tank model more appropriate, whilst very high-volume sites — such as large quick-service or central production kitchens — may benefit from looking at heavier-duty options within the FriFri range.

If you are unsure whether the Precision 422 is the right fit for your service volume or kitchen setup, the team are happy to work through the details with you before you commit.
