EF021-C/EF022-C Automatic Lifting and Smart Control Fryer Operation
The EF021-C/EF022-C combines automatic basket lifting with a smart button control panel to simplify repetitive countertop frying tasks. Operators can set the desired frying temperature and select one of five preset menus, while the LED display shows the current temperature in real time. When the programmed frying time is completed, the automatic lifting mechanism raises the basket above the oil, allowing fried food to drain before removal. A dedicated oil-melting preset supports controlled heating when solid frying oil is used. The fryer also features a sensitive temperature probe, high-quality heating tube and multiple electrical protection functions, including over-temperature, dry-burn and temperature-control protection. Its thick stainless steel body, removable heating head assembly and flexible oil tank options are designed to make daily cleaning and commercial operation more convenient.

The smart control panel features five preset cooking menus, an oil-melting preset, temperature setting and real-time LED temperature display.

Product FAQs
How does the automatic lifting function work?
After the programmed frying time is completed, the automatic lifting mechanism raises the frying basket above the oil. This allows excess oil to drain before the food is removed and makes repeated frying operations more convenient.
What is the difference between EF021-C and EF022-C?
The main difference is capacity and size. EF021-C has a 12L oil tank, 3.25KW rated power and a 30 × 56.5 × 38.5cm body. EF022-C has a 15L oil tank, 4KW rated power and a 35 × 56.5 × 38.5cm body. Both models use 220V / 50Hz, smart button controls and automatic basket lifting.
What can the smart control panel do?
The smart control panel provides an oil-melting preset, five built-in cooking menus, temperature setting, real-time temperature display, LED display, independent power control and power and heating indicators.
Can the fryer use solid frying oil?
Yes. The control panel includes a dedicated oil-melting preset designed to support controlled heating when solid frying oil is used. For liquid oil, the fryer can be set directly to the required cooking temperature. Operators should follow appropriate operating procedures when melting and heating frying oil.
Can the oil tank be removed for cleaning?
There are two oil tank configurations available. One version uses a removable tank without a drain valve, while the other uses a fixed tank with a drain valve. Buyers can select the preferred configuration according to their cleaning and oil-management requirements.
Can this countertop commercial fryer be used at home?
The compact EF021-C and EF022-C designs can also be used by selected home users who need a larger-capacity countertop fryer. However, the products are primarily designed for commercial and foodservice applications. Electrical installation should follow the applicable requirements of the target market, especially for models with higher power ratings.
