2836
7-1
The 2836 is a large electric fryer used principally in Wal-Mart
kitchens to prepare chicken in large quantities. The original
design used a round-bar element and had float switches; later
units have flat-bar elements and no float switch.
Unique Physical Characteristics:
• The unit is big. Wal-Mart cooks 100 pieces of chicken
at a time in the 36Kw frypot. The amp draw demands
special wiring for the store. The unit is also sold in a
two 28Kw frypot configuration.
Where Used:
• Wal-Mart, however, it is not marketed exclusively to Wal-Mart.
Common Model Numbers:
• FP128/236, FP228
The earlier 2836 units have round
heating elements and a covered float
switch, which is visible in the left corner
above.
