Product Overview

Here we have the Parry NPDF9, a proper workhorse of a countertop fryer that’s ready to tackle the busiest of services. If you're tired of juggling frying times or dealing with flavour contamination between your fish and  your chips, this is the solution you’ve been looking for. It’s a robust, powerful, and  brilliantly simple piece of kit designed for professional kitchens that need consistent, high-quality results without any faff.

Specifically built for demanding environments like bustling takeaways, village pubs, and  event catering stands, this electric double tank fryer offers complete independence for each of its two 9-litre tanks. This means you can have one sizzling away with chips at 190°C while the other gently fries onion rings at a lower temperature. Or, during those quieter afternoon lulls, simply switch one tank off entirely to save a bit on your electricity bill – it’s that flexible.

Packing a serious punch with a combined output of up to 84kg of chips per hour, and  crafted from easy-to-clean stainless steel, the Parry twin tank electric fryer is all about making your life easier. It combines high performance with practical, everyday usability, ensuring your kitchen runs as smoothly as your perfectly filtered oil.

Expert Review and  Insights

The Parry NPDF9 is exactly what you expect from a British manufacturer: sturdy, reliable, and  does the job without any unnecessary bells and  whistles. Its real strength lies in the true independence of the tanks; it’s not just two baskets in one pan. This makes it a fantastically versatile bit of kit for any kitchen that fries more than one type of food.

Oliver Bennett – Catering Equipment View Profile →

  • Pros: The power is impressive; it recovers temperature very quickly between baskets.
  • Cons: It requires a solid, dedicated counter space due to its weight and  power.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Chippy on the Corner in Cardiff was struggling with their old single-tank fryer during peak tourist season, leading to longer waits and  flavour mixing. They upgraded to the Parry NPDF9 to separate their gluten-free frying from their standard battered fish.

"Having two totally separate tanks has been brilliant. Our customers with allergies are happier, and  the kitchen flow is so much better. We can get orders out faster and  the food quality is more consistent across the board."

Gareth Evans – Owner

The change resulted in a 20% increase in positive online reviews mentioning food quality and  service speed within three months.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Ensure the fryer is placed on a stable, level, and  non-combustible countertop.
  • Check that your electrical supply matches the unit's requirements (single or three-phase).
  • Leave adequate space around the unit for ventilation to prevent overheating.
  • Before the first use, clean the tanks thoroughly and  'season' the fryer with new oil by heating it gently.

Keeping It Going

  • Filter the cooking oil at the end of every day to extend its life and  improve food quality.
  • Wipe down the stainless steel exterior daily with a damp cloth and  mild detergent.
  • Perform a full 'boil out' deep clean of the tanks at least once a week to remove carbon build-up.
  • Regularly check the baskets for any signs of wear and  tear and  replace them if necessary.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Commercial Fryer

Not sure which fryer fits your kitchen best? Here are a few pointers to help you decide.

Power: Electric vs. Gas

Electric fryers like this one offer precise temperature control and  are often easier to install, while gas models can heat up faster and  may be cheaper to run.

Capacity: Litres vs. Output

Don't just look at oil capacity. Consider the chip output (kg/hr) to ensure the fryer can keep up with your busiest service periods.

Tanks: Single vs. Twin

A twin tank fryer is a must if you cook different food types (e.g., savoury and  sweet) or need to cater for allergens to avoid cross-contamination.

Footprint: Countertop vs. Freestanding

Countertop models are brilliant space-savers for smaller kitchens but check you have a sturdy surface. Freestanding units offer higher capacity for larger operations.

Cleaning: Taps vs. Pumps

Features like front-mounted drain taps and  removable elements make the daily chore of cleaning much quicker, safer, and  easier for your staff.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is a batter plate and  why is it included?

A: A batter plate sits at the bottom of the fryer tank. It catches any loose bits of batter and  food, preventing them from burning and  tainting the oil.

Q: Can I really run just one tank at a time?

A: Absolutely. Each tank has its own independent power and  temperature controls, so you can switch one off completely during quieter hours to save on energy costs.

Q: How difficult is it to drain the oil?

A: It's very straightforward. The front-mounted taps allow you to safely and  easily drain the old oil into a suitable container placed underneath.

Q: What is the maximum temperature this fryer can reach?

A: The Parry NPDF9 has a temperature range of 50°C up to 200°C, giving you flexibility for various types of food.

Q: Is the stainless steel construction easy to keep clean?

A: Yes, the smooth stainless steel body and  tanks are designed to be wiped down easily, helping you maintain high hygiene standards.

Q: How quickly does it heat up?

A: Thanks to its powerful 9kW elements, it has a fast heat-up and  temperature recovery time, meaning less waiting between batches during a busy service.

Q: Are the baskets included with the fryer?

A: Yes, it comes complete with two strong wire frying baskets featuring stay-cool handles for operator safety.

Q: Can this fryer be converted to a 3 phase supply?

A: The unit is supplied as single phase but has a built-in option to be configured for a 3 phase power supply by a qualified electrician if required.

Why Independent Tanks Are a Kitchen's Best Friend

Wondering why having two separate tanks with their own controls is such a big deal? Think of it like having two separate hobs on your cooker instead of one giant one. If you only need to boil a small pan of water, you use a small ring and  save gas. If you're cooking a massive family meal, you can have them all blazing. This Parry NPDF9 fryer applies that same logic to frying. During a quiet afternoon, you can run just one 9-litre tank for the odd portion of chips, saving a significant amount on electricity. But when the Friday night rush hits, you can have both tanks fired up and  working independently, ensuring your fish doesn't taste of onions and  your doughnuts don't taste of fish. It’s all about efficiency, cost-saving, and  better-tasting food.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Fish & Chip Shops: Keep your cod and  chips tasting distinct and  pure, even during the Friday night rush.
  • Pubs & Bistros: Expand your bar snack menu with a reliable fryer that can handle scampi, wings, and  chips.
  • Mobile Caterers: A powerful countertop twin basket fryer perfect for serving hungry crowds at festivals and  events.
  • Busy Cafes: Effortlessly manage a varied menu from fried halloumi to doughnuts from one compact unit.
