Parry NPDPF6 Double Basket Pedestal Electric Fryer

The Parry NPDPF6 is a freestanding twin-tank electric fryer built for continuous commercial use. It runs two independent frying tanks side by side, each with its own basket, allowing different products to be cooked simultaneously without flavour transfer — a practical necessity in kitchens serving varied fried menus. Thermostatic temperature control keeps oil at a consistent working temperature throughout service, which matters both for food quality and for managing oil life.

In a busy kitchen environment, the twin-tank configuration earns its keep during peak periods. With two tanks operating independently, there is no need to pause service while one tank recovers — one can be held at temperature or rested while the other carries the load. The pedestal mount positions the tanks at a practical working height, reducing the awkward reaching and lifting that floor-level fryers can involve. The unit is designed to sit as a standalone piece or integrate into a cooking line alongside other Parry equipment.

From an operational standpoint, the key advantages are straightforward:

• Simultaneous cooking of different products without cross-contamination of flavours
• Continuous service capability through independent tank operation
• Thermostatically controlled oil temperature for consistent frying results
• Pedestal mount for comfortable working height and easier cleaning underneath
• Suitable for standalone installation or as part of a suite

The unit draws a significant electrical load across its two tanks and is available in single or three-phase supply configurations. Three-phase connection is typically preferred in commercial installations where the supply infrastructure supports it, offering more stable power delivery. As with any high-draw electric fryer, it is worth confirming your available supply and consumer unit capacity before installation. The pedestal footprint should be accounted for in kitchen layout planning, particularly in tighter galley-style kitchens.

This fryer is well suited to restaurants, pub kitchens, and catering operations where a consistent volume of fried dishes is served across a full service period. It will handle the demands of a mid-to-high volume kitchen comfortably. For very high-throughput operations — large contract catering sites or busy fast food environments — it is worth considering whether a higher-capacity unit would better match the demand.
