Roller Grill FD 50D 10 Litre Double Tank Electric Fryer

Product No: FD 50D

Product Description

The Roller Grill FD 50D is a countertop electric fryer with two independent tanks sharing a combined 10-litre oil capacity. Each basin operates separately, allowing you to fry different products at the same time without flavour crossover — a straightforward advantage for any kitchen serving a mixed fried menu. The unit is supplied with cables and plugs, so it can typically be brought into service without specialist electrical installation.

In practice, the FD 50D is well suited to light-to-moderate frying output. A cold zone beneath each heating element keeps food debris away from the hottest part of the oil, which slows oil degradation and reduces the frequency of oil changes — a small but meaningful saving in daily running costs. The thermostat maintains consistent cooking temperatures through service, and heat-resistant basket handles allow for quicker, safer basket changes during a busy shift.

From an operational standpoint, the design considers both safe use and ease of maintenance:

  • Removable head unit and oil pans simplify end-of-service cleaning
  • A safety micro switch prevents operation unless the element is correctly seated
  • A secondary safety thermostat provides an additional layer of protection for kitchen staff

Because the unit is plug-in, hard-wired installation is not required in most cases. Before deploying it, confirm that your countertop power supply can comfortably support the load, and ensure there is adequate extraction above the fryer in line with your kitchen's ventilation setup.

The FD 50D suits cafés, snack bars, small restaurants, and concession setups where a compact twin-tank fryer handles a varied fried menu without consuming significant counter space. It is not designed for sustained high-volume output — kitchens where continuous frying is central to the operation would be better served by a heavier-duty freestanding model.

If you would like to talk through whether this fryer is the right fit for your menu and service volumes, the team is glad to help before you commit.
