Why this free standing fryer earns its place
The Valentine Core 400 single-phase fits kitchens where three-phase isn't available. At 14.4kW on 230V, it's a proper working fryer — not a scaled-down compromise. The 18-litre tank runs twin baskets, giving you the same rhythm as the three-phase: one basket cooking, one cooling and draining, or both working in parallel when service pushes.
The design emphasises simplicity. The pan is pressed from a single sheet of stainless steel, creating a strong, rounded profile that's exceptionally easy to clean and drain. No fiddly seams, no pockets where oil sits and oxidises. The Sicotronic interface learns your temperature curve and oil life, cutting waste; an ECO mode for preheating saves energy without sacrificing recovery time once you're in service.
The heating element pivots upright for full tank access at the end of service — daily clean-down is quick, and maintenance is straightforward. Built with the same 20-year tank guarantee and spare parts availability as the range; backed by a three-year parts and labour warranty.
