Electrolux Professional Deep Fat Fryer 391190 – 900XP, One Well and 2 Half Size Basket Electric Fryer 18 liter, 400V

Sixteen point five kilowatts on a single 18–20 litre well is a concentrated load, and it defines how the 391190 behaves in service. The thermostat span from 105 to 185 °C allows both low‑temperature holding and high‑temperature frying in the same tank, using the two half baskets to separate product.

On a vessel, that 16.5 kW ties directly into the galley’s electrical allocation. The supply is 380–400 V/3 ph/50/60 Hz, so the same unit can be tied either into a 50 Hz or 60 Hz board without changing hardware, which simplifies refits and fleet standardisation. The footprint and mass matter when planning the cooking line: a 60 kg net weight unit is light enough to sit on a standard 900XP base but heavy enough that the foundation and securing method need to be agreed with the yard to cope with ship motion and cleaning loads.

The usable well dimensions are 340 mm wide, 400 mm deep and 290 mm high. In practice that geometry, combined with the 18 litre minimum and 20 litre maximum oil capacity, sets how many portions can be run per drop and how much cold product the oil can tolerate before recovery slows. The rectangular well favours standard basket shapes, and the quoted volume band is what the galley must respect when marking minimum and maximum oil levels for crew.

Thermostatic control between 105 and 185 °C covers typical frozen and fresh frying temperatures as well as gentle rethermalisation. At the lower end of the band the oil load on the HVAC system is reduced; at the upper end, the fryer works at its design throughput. With a single tank feeding two half baskets, the unit suits split‑menu operation where different items share the same fat but are cooked in separate baskets to avoid cross‑contamination.

From a logistics point of view, the shipping data guides how the fryer is brought aboard. Shipping weight is 63 kg with a crate volume of 0.53 m³, and the packed dimensions are 1120 mm high, 460 mm wide and 1020 mm deep. These figures determine whether the unit can pass through provision hatches and companionways without uncrating and what handling equipment is needed.

Build and control

• IPX5 rated against water ingress
• Scotch-Brite finished exterior panels
• Flush-fitting side edges for gap-free installation
• Rounded internal corners for cleaning
• Overheat cut-out

This fryer is the right choice where a 900XP line already exists or is being specified, and the requirement is for one oil well supporting two half baskets rather than multiple independent wells. It is less suitable where separate allergen‑segregated vats are mandatory, because this model concentrates its 18–20 litre capacity in a single tank.
