VITO VM Portable Oil Filtration System for Fryers

Delivery Information
Price Match
The Vito VM is a portable oil filtration unit designed to remove carbon deposits and micro particles from fryer oil between services. It is built for medium-duty frying operations and is suited to fryers holding up to 20 litres of oil. The principle is straightforward: oil that is filtered regularly degrades more slowly, fries more consistently, and produces better-looking, better-tasting food for longer.
In practical terms, the difference becomes most noticeable in kitchens that put fryers under sustained pressure — particularly those cooking heavily breaded, floured, or seasoned products, which accelerate oil breakdown significantly. Regular filtration between or during services means oil quality stays more stable across the day rather than visibly deteriorating by the afternoon session. The air-cooled fan design allows several consecutive filtration cycles without the unit needing to rest, and each cycle completes in under five minutes, making it viable to filter during a natural break in service without disrupting the kitchen.
Key operational advantages include:
- Oil consumption can be reduced by up to 60%, according to Vito's own data
- Dishwasher-safe components make the unit straightforward to keep clean
- Compatible with both solid and liquid fats, giving flexibility across different frying setups
- VitoConnect integration allows filter usage to be monitored over time
- Stainless steel construction supports durability under daily commercial use
Because the unit is portable and weighs under 8kg, it requires no fixed installation — it simply needs to reach the fryer safely and be stored accessibly between uses. Replacement filter papers are available separately and should be factored into ongoing consumables costs. For sites running larger fryers beyond 20 litres, a higher-capacity model in the Vito range would be a more appropriate choice.
The VM suits independent restaurants, hotel kitchens, and pub operations where one or two fryers are in regular use and oil spend is a meaningful cost. It is less suited to very high-volume operations running multiple large-capacity fryers, where a larger filtration unit would be more practical.
If you are unsure whether the VM is the right fit for your fryer setup or service volume, the team is happy to talk it through with you before you order.
Frequently asked questions
How often should we be filtering oil with the Vito VM during a typical service?
Filtration frequency depends on what you are frying and how heavily the fryers are used. Kitchens cooking large volumes of breaded or seasoned products will typically benefit from filtering once or twice during a service, as these products break oil down faster. For lighter frying operations, once at the end of service may be sufficient — the VitoConnect monitoring feature can help identify the right pattern for your setup over time.
Is the Vito VM suitable for all types of commercial fryer?
The VM is designed for fryers holding up to 20 litres of oil and works with both solid and liquid fats, so it is compatible with a wide range of countertop and single-tank floor fryers commonly found in commercial kitchens. If your fryer holds more than 20 litres, a higher-capacity model from the Vito range would be the appropriate choice — our team can advise on which unit matches your fryer volume.
What ongoing consumables do we need to budget for with the Vito VM?
The main consumable is the Vito VM filter paper, which is available separately and should be replaced after each filtration cycle or as directed by the manufacturer. The rest of the unit's components are dishwasher-safe and reusable, so running costs beyond filter papers are minimal. It is worth factoring filter paper usage into your weekly consumables when assessing the overall cost benefit against your current oil spend.
