The Parry NPDF3 is a professional electric countertop fryer for caterers seeking high production from a compact bench unit. Its 2 independently operated tanks support busy kitchens while allowing one side to remain off during quieter periods.

It has two 9Ltr oil tanks, giving 18Ltr of total oil capacity. Each tank can produce up to 14kg per hour, for a combined output of up to 28kg per hour under suitable operating conditions.

Each electric fryer head is rated at 3 kW, giving a 2 × 3 kW arrangement across the double unit. The heating input and oil volume are balanced for responsive recovery and productive commercial frying.

Each tank has its own user-friendly dial thermostat and independent mechanical controls, allowing different operating settings or 1-tank use during quieter service. The adjustable thermostats maintain the selected heat automatically, and a safety thermostat provides additional protection.

The thermostats adjust from 50°C to 200°C. This gives the operator scope to melt cooled solid fat gently at 50°C to 60°C before moving to the required cooking temperature, while normal results should be checked for the particular food and batch size.

Yes. Each machine has a mechanical timer that counts down and rings at zero. It is a timing guide only and does not switch off power to the heating element, so the operator must still monitor the frying process and controls.

The two separate tanks let operators keep different foods or cooking media apart, reducing flavour transfer. They also allow one side to be switched off during quieter periods, which can reduce unnecessary energy use when full double-tank capacity is not required.

The fryer includes 2 strong wire baskets, batter plates and lids. The batter plates sit above the elements to help protect them and maintain oil quality, while the lids are dust covers for use only when the fryer is switched off and cool.

Each tank has a front-mounted drain tap for easier oil removal. Allow the oil to cool, isolate the fryer, fit the provided drain spout after removing the finger-tight bung, place a suitable receptacle below it and then open the tap using its safety catch.

Its stainless steel construction and lift-out control head and element simplify access. Once cool, isolated and drained, remove the control head, wash the bowl and drain with hot soapy water, rinse and dry thoroughly, and clean around the element and batter plate without abrasives or water jets.

The fryer measures 600 mm wide, 600 mm deep and 460 mm high. Its square countertop footprint should be allowed for alongside safe working room for the baskets, lids and front drain taps.

The fryer is made from stainless steel with a silver finish and includes a 2-year parts and labour warranty. Its sturdy construction is intended for reliable commercial kitchen use.

The model reference is NPDF3. It identifies the double table-top model with 2 tanks and 2 baskets, helping distinguish it from the single-tank and higher-powered models in the same fryer family.
