RICA 5108539 Swivel Articulated Commercial Fryer Heating Element 230V/380V 18000W CR304 (23.16.009)

The RICA 5108539 heating element is engineered for maximum thermal performance in heavy-duty commercial deep fryers and high-volume industrial food production systems. Delivering an exceptional 18,000W (18 kW) output with 230V/380V multi-voltage compatibility, it guarantees ultra-fast oil heating and instantaneous temperature recovery even under continuous heavy frozen food loads. Constructed from premium CR304 stainless steel, it provides outstanding resistance to thermal fatigue and oil corrosion. The integrated swivel joint mechanism (mafsallı) allows the heating element to tilt upward clear of the oil basin, making cleaning, oil filtration, and routine maintenance fast and effortless.
