Description

Henny Penny PFE-561 Electric Pressure Fryer

Built-to-order • 69 lb oil | 18 lb food • Built-in filtration

Engineered for high-volume kitchens that demand speed, consistency and low operating costs, the Henny Penny PFE-561 delivers the legendary results of pressure frying in a space-saving 19.7 in (500 mm) footprint. Lower cook temperatures lock in natural juices while reducing oil absorption, extending oil life and cutting energy consumption—so every batch is crisp, juicy and profitable.

Why Choose the PFE-561

  • Large 18 lb / up to 6-head chicken capacity without increasing floor space.
  • Patented lid-lock and color-keyed spindle guarantee a perfect 12 psi pressure seal every time.
  • Heavy-duty stainless steel rectangular frypot (7-year warranty) promotes even heat turbulence for uniform browning.
  • Immersed 11.25 kW elements recover temperature fast, keeping pace with peak demand.
  • Integrated stainless Max ® oil filtration—returns hot, filtered oil in minutes; no external pans or pumps.
  • Computron™ 1000 digital control standard; upgradeable to Computron™ 8000 for up to 10 fully programmable cook cycles, melt/idle modes, load compensation and multilingual display.
  • Cold-zone design and high-limit protection extend oil life and enhance safety.
  • Lightweight cast-aluminum lid with condensation channel keeps moisture off the deck.
  • 4 heavy-duty swivel casters (2 locking) simplify cleaning and maintenance.
