Anvil Deep Fryer Single Pan

The Anvil FFA0001 is a single-pan benchtop deep fryer with a 5 litre oil capacity, a removable stainless steel tank with carrying handles and a hinged element box so the elements lift clear for cleaning. At 2.4 kW it draws almost exactly 10 amps — the whole of a standard circuit, so it wants a dedicated outlet.

Why operators choose the ICE-FFA0001

• 2.4 kW is 10.0 A at 240 V — the entire capacity of a standard 10 amp circuit. It plugs into a normal outlet, but put it on a circuit of its own: share it with a griddle or a toaster and you will trip the breaker mid-service
• Hinged element box — the elements swing up out of the oil rather than having to be lifted free, which is what makes an end-of-day oil change a one-person job
• Removable stainless steel tank with carrying handles — the tank comes out to be emptied and washed instead of being bailed out in place
• Reset switch and a separate safety thermostat — a second thermostat independent of the operating one, which is the protection that matters on a fryer
• Night lid supplied — in the box, so the oil is covered overnight rather than collecting whatever is in the air
• 5 litre oil capacity — a single-basket bench fryer for a small line, a bar snack menu or a service that fries occasionally rather than continuously
• Warranty is 2 years parts and 1 year labour — the two halves run for different periods, so in year two the part is covered and the technician's time is not

Specifications

Venue suitability

A single-pan bench fryer suits bars, cafes, clubs and small kitchens frying to order rather than continuously — chips with a burger, calamari with a beer. At 282 mm wide it takes very little bench, and the 5 litre tank means an oil change is a manageable job rather than a project.

Installation & delivery

Plugs into a standard 240 V outlet at 2.4 kW — but that is 10.0 amps, the full rating of a 10 amp circuit, so give it a dedicated outlet rather than sharing with other benchtop appliances. Dimensions are recorded width x height x depth: 282 x 288 x 470 mm — note the Anvil order puts height second, so the last figure is the depth. No weight is recorded. Site it clear of any water source, as any fryer should be.

Warranty terms are per product — see our warranty information page.

Frequently asked questions

Q: Can I plug it into a normal power point?

Yes, but give it one of its own. At 2.4 kW it draws 10.0 amps at 240 V, which is the entire rating of a standard 10 amp circuit. It will run perfectly on its own outlet and will trip the breaker if it shares one with another heating appliance.

Q: How much oil does it hold?

Five litres. That is a single-basket bench fryer - right for frying to order alongside a bar or cafe menu, rather than a continuous chip service, and small enough that changing the oil is quick.

Q: What makes the hinged element box useful?

The elements swing up clear of the oil instead of having to be lifted out and rested somewhere. Combined with the removable tank and its carrying handles, it means one person can strip and clean the fryer at the end of a shift.

Q: What warranty does it carry?

Two years on parts and one year on labour, under Anvil's Extended Gold Star terms. Worth reading carefully: the two halves run for different periods, so in the second year the part is covered but the technician's time is not.

Q: What is the manufacturer code?

Our records disagree, so here is what we hold. The specification field records FFA0001, which matches the SKU, while the description records the manufacturer code as FFA2001-ICE. We publish FFA0001 and have flagged the other value for correction. If you are ordering a part or matching an existing machine, contact us and we will confirm it with the supplier first.
