Description
The FryMAX RC400TE is a commercial gas tube twin vat fryer built for high-output kitchens — QSRs, fish-and-chip shops, RSL clubs and busy hotel hot-lines that fry chicken and chips in parallel without flavour cross-over. It runs 35 L of recommended oil per vat across twin stainless tanks, a 4-tube / 4-burner 120 MJ system rated at 110 MJ/h on a standard 1/2" gas inlet, and a 120–200 °C operating range under millivolt mechanical control that holds up without mains power.
Why operators choose the RC400TE
-
35 L oil capacity per vat across twin stainless tanks — two independent batches run side by side for genuine high-volume frying.
-
4-tube / 4-burner 120 MJ system — fast oil recovery between baskets so throughput holds during the peak rush.
-
110 MJ/h gas input on a 1/2" inlet — sized for a standard commercial gas line; no upgrade needed in most venues.
-
Twin baskets, one per vat — chicken and chips (or fish and fries) cooked in parallel without flavour cross-over.
-
Millivolt mechanical control with standby pilot — operates without mains power and stays reliable in hot commercial kitchens.
-
32 mm full-port ball drain valve — fast, safe oil change-outs with no tooling.

Venue suitability
The RC400TE earns its place in high-output frying lines — QSRs, fish-and-chip shops, RSL clubs and busy hotel hot-counters — where twin vats let one bath hold chicken while the other runs chips so flavours stay separate and service flow stays unbroken. Its 110 MJ/h input runs on a standard 1/2" gas line so most venues install without a gas upgrade, and the all-stainless body with adjustable legs suits commercial washdown floors. A single-vat 22 L fryer is enough for a small café or pub bistro doing under 100 covers; for kitchens with two product streams or higher throughput, the twin-vat RC400TE is the right size.

Frequently asked questions
What is the oil capacity of the FryMAX RC400TE?
The RC400TE holds 35 L of recommended oil per vat across twin stainless vats — sized for high-output frying in QSRs, fish-and-chip shops and busy hotel kitchens that need to run two batches in parallel.
How much gas does the RC400TE use?
The RC400TE has a 110 MJ/h gas input via a 1/2" inlet, with a 4-tube / 4-burner system rated at 120 MJ total. It runs on Natural Gas and connects to a standard commercial gas line in most venues.
Can the RC400TE fry two different products at the same time?
Yes — twin independent vats let operators keep one bath for chicken or fish and another for chips, with separate baskets so flavours don't cross over. This is the main reason busy QSRs and fish-and-chip kitchens choose a twin-vat configuration over a single-vat unit.
How often should the oil in the RC400TE be changed?
Oil lifespan depends on what you're frying, your throughput and how well you filter — most high-volume operators change it every 5–7 days, faster for fish and seafood, slower for fries-only services. See our guide on deep-fryer oil change frequency for a more detailed cadence.
How do I clean the RC400TE?
The RC400TE has a 32 mm full-port ball drain valve for fast, safe oil discharge, and the all-stainless body is washdown-friendly. A weekly deep-clean and daily oil filtration extends oil life and keeps the burner system efficient — our deep-fryer cleaning guide walks through the full routine.
What's the warranty on the FryMAX RC400TE?
48 months total — 2 years parts and labour plus an additional 2 years parts when the unit is registered within 14 days of invoice. Warranty is backed by F.E.D. and covers manufacturing defects under normal commercial use.
