Ace Filters ECONOPUMP EF-MACH60-15W 60L Commercial Oil Filtration Machine

The Ace Filters ECONOPUMP EF-MACH60-15W 60L Commercial Oil Filtration Machine is a heavy-duty, high-capacity mobile oil purification system engineered specifically for Australian commercial kitchens, fish and chip shops, pubs, clubs, bakeries, and high-volume takeaway venues. Designed with a generous 60-litre total tank capacity and a powerful 1/2 HP (.33kW) motor, this unit purifies hot frying oil down to 4 to 12 microns (using food-grade paper or polyester filter bags), virtually doubling oil lifespan, improving fried food flavor and crispness, and slashing oil replacement costs by up to 50%.

Engineered to handle both liquid oils and solid block fats up to 160°C, the ECONOPUMP eliminates the hazards of handling hot liquid oil manually. Pumping oil at a rapid 15 litres per minute, a typical 20L fryer can be completely filtered and returned in just 3 minutes. Operating on a standard Australian 10 Amp power supply, every unit includes a complete Start-Up Accessory Kit containing 50 filter paper envelopes, a pre-filter mesh bag and frame, protective high-temperature safety gloves, and operating instructions.

Why Choose the Ace Filters ECONOPUMP 60L Oil Filter Machine?

Choosing the Ace Filters ECONOPUMP EF-MACH60-15W 60L Oil Filter Machine arms busy commercial kitchens with a fast, safe, and cost-effective oil reconditioning system.

Key reasons commercial operators specify the Ace Filters ECONOPUMP EF-MACH60-15W include:

• Micro-Fine 4 to 12 Micron Filtration: Uses 4-micron food-grade paper envelopes or 80-micron polyester bags to strip away fine carbonised sediment, extending oil usage from 7 days to 10+ days (saving up to a full week of oil per month).

• Rapid 15L/Min Pump & Fast 3-Minute Cycle: Heavy-duty 1/2 HP (.33kW) motor pumps hot oil at 15 litres per minute, allowing a complete 20L fryer drain, flush, and refill in under 3 minutes during busy shifts.

• Handles Solid Fats & High Temps (Up to 160°C): Engineered specifically to handle both liquid oils and solid block fats when cold or hot (up to 160°C), preventing pump clogging during cool-down periods.

• Massive 60 Litre Tank Capacity: Expansive 60L basin eliminates the need for multiple buckets, allowing staff to drain large multi-basket fryers in a single continuous pass.

• Hands-Free Hot Oil Safety: Flushes crumbs and food fines directly from the fryer vat into the filter tank without staff needing to place hands or scrapers into hot vats or lift heavy hot oil drums over 1 metre high.

• Effortless Waste Pumping & Mobility: Compact mobile frame allows staff to wheel the machine directly to bulk waste tanks and pump spent oil out effortlessly, avoiding heavy lifting over waste dump lips.

• Complete Start-Up Kit Included: Comes complete with 50 x paper filter envelopes, pre-filter mesh bag & frame, high-temperature safety gloves, and step-by-step instructions.

• Standard 10A Plug-and-Play Setup: Powered by a 240V single-phase supply with low mechanical complexity, plugging directly into standard Australian 10 Amp wall outlets.

Operating & Cleaning Guidelines

1. Setup & Start-Up Kit Fitting: Position the 60L ECONOPUMP alongside your fryers and plug into a 240V 10A outlet. Insert the pre-filter mesh bag, support frame, and a genuine 4-micron paper envelope into the tank, securing the filter assembly according to instructions.

2. Hot Oil Filtration Process: Wearing the included safety gloves, align the machine drain tank beneath the fryer outlet. Open the fryer valve to drop hot oil (up to 160°C) into the 60L tank. Turn on the 1/2 HP pump to flush out sediment and pump clean oil back into the fryer vat at 15L/min.

3. Waste Disposal & End-of-Shift Sanitisation: To dispose of spent oil, wheel the ECONOPUMP to your bulk waste storage container and use the pump nozzle to transfer oil without manual lifting. Remove used filter envelopes and mesh bags to wash, and wipe down the smooth stainless surfaces between service shifts.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is the difference between the Fryrite and ECONOPUMP oil filter machines?

While Fryrite models are designed for liquid oils, the ECONOPUMP features a heavier 1/2 HP motor engineered to handle both liquid oils and solid block fats/tallows up to 160°C. It also pumps faster at 15L/min and can pump spent oil straight into waste tanks.

2. How long does it take to filter a 20L fryer with the ECONOPUMP?

Filtering a 20L fryer takes approximately 3 minutes total: 1 to 2 minutes to drop the oil into the 60L tank and 1 to 2 minutes to pump clean oil back into the vat.

3. How much oil can I save by using 4-micron filter envelopes?

Filtering daily with 4-micron media removes micro-particles and carbon build-up, extending oil life from 7 days to 10+ days. Over a month of trading, this saves up to 1 full week of commercial frying oil.

4. What items come in the included Start-Up Kit?

Each ECONOPUMP EF-MACH60-15W unit includes 1 x pack of 50 filter paper envelopes, a pre-filter mesh bag and support frame, high-temperature safety gloves, and complete operating instructions.

5. Does the ECONOPUMP require special 15 Amp electrical wiring?

No, the ECONOPUMP operates on a single-phase 240V supply and connects via a standard Australian 10 Amp 3-pin plug.
