Description
The Frymaster PMJ145SC is a heavy-duty commercial natural-gas floor fryer from Frymaster’s MJ45 Performance Series.
Its open-pot design provides direct access to the stainless-steel frypot and deep cold zone, making routine cleaning and sediment removal easier than with traditional tube-style fryers.
The Master Jet burner system distributes heat around the frypot for efficient heat transfer, rapid temperature recovery, and consistent frying performance during busy commercial service.
This exact fryer is rated at 104,300 BTU per hour, as confirmed by its data plate. Published MJ45-series specifications may show higher input ratings, but the rating plate on this specific unit takes precedence.
