Pitco’s newest series of
fryers, the “Solstice Supreme”,
are a major breakthrough in
fryer design and efficiency.
Our engineers have designed a
system that has the highest
gas efficiency rating,
combined with the lowest
cost of ownership in
the industry.
HIGHEST
EFFICIENCY RATING
Pitco’s Solstice Supreme fryer category has more gas
models than any manufacturer (25 lb., 50 lb., etc.)
that achieve the Energy Star Rating.

NON-BLOWER SYSTEM
The smart simple design eliminates all of the failure prone
moving parts found in old technology high efficiency fryers.
Pitco’s new burner and baffle squeeze more heat out of
your dollar by causing a “scrubbing action” of the flame.
This new baffle becomes radiant
much faster, leading to quicker recovery times and
higher cooking efficiency, while still maintaining it’s
high efficient combustion.
LOWEST COST OF
OWNERSHIP
Less moving parts and no fragile
ceramic burners to crack or blowers to clean means greater reliability, less
required maintenance and longer life.

3. 30% more heat transfer area! With Pitco’s tube fired efficiency, heat is distributed over a
wider area resulting in lower oil surface temperature and less metal fatigue.
Oil Life and Cool Zone: As you know, oil cost is a major expense in a kitchen. Oil’s #1
enemy is excessive heat. It is widely accepted by oil chemists that each 10° F increase in
temperature doubles the rate of breakdown reactions that will occur in cooking oil. Itco has
the largest cool zone in the industry. Fall off from food products rests in the cool zone and
does not continue to cook. On brand X, sediment trapped in the small cold zone actually
continues to cook, which can further break down oil.
In the Zone: Pitco’s heat tubes prevent a disruption in the cool zone when baskets are
dropped into the tank to help prevent sediment from being recirculated.
Stainless Steel Burner Baffles: For added reliability Pitco fryers use a special stainless
steel alloy baffle vs. more fragile ceramic target. Ceramic targets are more likely to need
adjustments and can be susceptible to breaking.
No Cabinet Insulation Required: Pitco gas fryers put the heat in a tube surrounded by oil.
Open pot fryers heat both the tank and the cabinet so insulation is often needed. Pitco
cabinets stay cool to the touch, eliminating the need for cabinet insulation which can sag,
absorb oil, or make service more cumbersome.
Easy to Clean: Safely use a brush (comes free with fryer) to clean and keep hands out of the
oil. A simple weekly “boil-out” will continue the ease of cleaning. Less cleaning is required
with the Pitco design, since the tank, tube sides and bottom are not heated, particles do not
adhere.
Smooth, Easy Clean “Peened” Finish: Pitco’s craftsmanship includes a peening process on
all frypots to provide a smooth, satin finish. This extra step reduces weld stress and
eliminates hard to clean rough corners. Some brands use grainy stainless steel and welded
corners can be rough and hard to clean. A great way to see a manufacturer’s short cuts is to
look for scorch marks at welded corners.
Split-Pot Fryer: Heat concentrated in a small area expands the metal in a non-uniform
manner, adding stress to the weld seams. Pitco half size fryer’s are two complete tanks, so
there is more uniform heating. Plus, there is back up if one side goes down.
Ease of Service: Most parts are front serviceable to lower maintenance costs. Since there
is no need for cabinet insulation, service is less difficult.

 Easy Installation
Utilize common filter drawer, power cords and gas
connections for easier installation.
 Professional Look
Common front to back dimensions and similar features allow
for a lineup that looks as professional as it cooks.
 Upgrade Now, Upgrade Later
Ready to accommodate changing business needs. Add a fryer to a battery
already in the field or upgrade existing fryers. Features to add on additional
fryers and options in the field are integrated into the modular design to
make upgrading easy. Furthermore, new technology is typically compatible
with existing equipment.
 Mix and Match
Any size fryer can be located next to any other size fryer as long as they
belong to the same platform. (Solstice platforms include: SG*,SSH, SGM, SE)
*stand alone fryers are not modular. Filter drawers, dump stations and crisp
& holds can be located anywhere within the fryer battery. Different
controls and options can exist on as few or as many fryers within the same
battery.
 Trillions of Possible Combinations
Solstice modular fryer systems have so many possible combinations to meet your specific needs
that it is difficult to count.
Solstice Supreme Example:
1. Model sizes (10 fryers, 4 Others): SSH-55, 55R, 55T, 55TR, 75, 75R, 60, 60R,
60W, 60WR, BNB14, BNB18, PCF14, PCF18
2. Fryer Control Options (4): Solid State, Digital, I-12 Computer, I-12 with backup
solid state
3. Baskets Lifts or no basket lifts (2)
4. Singles: (10x4x2) x2 for solofilters + 4 for other models
5. Duals: ((10x4x2) + 4) x2 for filter drawer or none to the power of 2 for battery length
6. All other battery sizes are calculated the same as above but to the “power of” is increased.
7. This does not include casters or legs, Waste oil, multiple filter drawer locations and flush hoses.
Solofilter Add-on
Fryer Battery Shown: 3 different models, 3
different controls, 1 basket lift

*Air induction blowers are typically used on high efficeincy gas fryers, but not on the SGH50!

8. - Less moving in the
burner system, and no fragile ceramic burners, means greater
reliability, less required maintenance and longer life.
Every Solstice Gas fryer comes standard with Solid State
control behind the front door.
- The smart simple design of the SGH50
eliminates all of the failure prone moving part found in a typical
high efficiency fryer. Even without the blower and other moving
parts, our fryer still maintains it’s high efficient combustion. Our
new burner and baffle squeeze more heat out of your dollar by
causing a “scrubbing action” of the flame. This new baffle
becomes radiant much faster, leading to
quicker recovery times and higher cooking efficiency.

nance and longer life.
Every Solstice Electric fryer comes standard with Solid State
control behind the front door.
Solstice Electric fryers are
designed with a fixed
element design to eliminate
oil migration through pivot
components, and create a
safer working environment
by keeping the hot elements
in the tank where they
belong.
