Pitco Solstice™ Electric SoloFilter Fryer – 70-90 lb, 17 kW

Model SFSE18 | High-production fryer with built-in two-step filtration

Filter faster, fry cleaner and save space with the ENERGY STAR® qualified Pitco Solstice™ SFSE18. This all-in-one cabinet pairs a 70-90 lb electric fryer with Pitco’s quick SoloFilter system, giving your kitchen premium output without the external filter cart.

Why operators choose Solstice

  • Large 70–90 lb (32–41 kg) oil capacity handles peak-hour demand.
  • 17 kW fixed immersion elements recover temperature rapidly for consistent, crispy results.
  • Solid-state thermostat with melt cycle & boil-out mode keeps oil at the perfect temperature and simplifies daily cleaning.
  • Mercury-free contactors and high-temperature safety limit enhance kitchen safety and sustainability.
  • Stainless steel tank, front and sides withstand the toughest commercial environments.

SoloFilter two-step filtration

  • Step 1: Pull the blue handle to drain through the 1-1/4" full-port valve.
  • Step 2: Pull the red handle — the 8 GPM, 1/3 HP pump returns polished oil in seconds.
  • Extra-large 3" curved drain spout reduces splashing and speeds up the cycle.
  • Self-aligning filter connection and stainless pan on rear casters make removal effortless.
  • Rear oil return rinses the fry-pot bottom, helping extend oil life and product quality.

Built for the long haul

  • Peened stainless steel fry tank backed by a 10-year limited warranty.
  • 10" (25.4 cm) adjustable legs for easy floor sanitation.
  • Drain-valve interlock prevents accidental opening while the fryer is in use.
