Built for high-volume kitchens, the Imperial IFS-40 delivers lightning-fast recovery, consistent results, and rock-solid durability—all in a slim 15 ½" footprint.

Key Benefits

  • 40 lb (22 L) oil capacity perfect for fries, wings, and appetizers.

  • Snap-action thermostat (200 – 400 °F) with millivolt controls—no electrical hookup required.
  • Generous cool zone traps crumbs to extend oil life and reduce flavor transfer.
  • Full stainless-steel front, door, sides, basket hanger, and frypot for long-term durability.
  • Includes two nickel-plated fry baskets with vinyl-coated handles and a wire-mesh crumb screen.
  • 1 ¼" ball-type drain valve empties the frypot quickly and safely.

Performance & Safety

  • Robotic-welded frypot virtually eliminates leaks.
  • 100 % safety shut-off plus high-limit protection.
  • Full heat shield protects the control panel from excessive ambient heat.
