Refurbished Mercury MEF-L5-DA-2 Twin Tank / Twin Basket 2 x 5ltr Countertop Commercial Catering Electric Fryer 2 x 2.8kW

The Mercury MEF-L5-DA-2 is a high-performance twin tank electric fryer engineered for demanding commercial environments such as cafes, food trucks, and small restaurants where space is at a premium but throughput remains critical. With a total 10-litre capacity (split across two 5-litre tanks), this unit provides the flexibility to manage high-volume orders of chips, chicken, or fish simultaneously without flavour transfer. Its compact footprint makes it an essential asset for kitchens requiring reliable, heavy-duty frying capabilities within a restricted countertop area.

Built for longevity and safety, the unit is manufactured with a high-grade stainless steel body and features a high-limit thermal safety cut-out to prevent overheating. Operationally, the fryer is highly efficient; it is fitted with two 13A plugs, meaning no hardwiring is required for immediate installation. The dual-element design (2 x 2.8kW) ensures that each tank operates independently, providing a savvy solution for operators looking to reduce energy costs by powering down half the unit during off-peak hours.

Maintenance is streamlined through a practical design that includes removable head units and micro-switches for safe handling during cleaning. The inclusion of stainless steel lids helps maintain oil hygiene and heat retention when the unit is not in active use.
