Find Your Perfect VITO Model

• We’ve designed a quiz to help you discover which VITO model is perfect for your needs.
• The quiz considers factors like what you fry, the number of fryers in your establishment, and the volume of your fryer’s basin.

Understand Your Requirements

• In general, the heavier the sediments, the higher the model you’ll require.
• These key factors all play a crucial role in determining the right VITO for you.

End of Service Day

• Filter your oil at least once at the end of each service day.
• This ensures that the oil is clean before it cools down, preventing further contamination overnight.

After Each Shift

• For optimal results, filter your oil up to 3 times per day—after each shift.
• Regular filtering throughout the day helps maintain oil quality and extends its lifespan.

Why Filtering at Day's End Is Crucial

• If you don’t filter your oil at the end of the service day, the cooling oil continues to cook the particles inside it overnight.
• This leads to the formation of burned carbon, increasing the oil’s Total Polar Material (TPM) value and further contaminating the oil.

Vortex Motion Indicates Proper Filtration

• When you turn on the VITO in the deep fryer, the oil will start moving in a vortex or circular motion.
• This movement shows that the filtration process is functioning correctly.

Filter Box Full? Here's How to Tell

• When the filter box is full, the circular motion of the oil will stop.
• This indicates that the filter paper and box are full, and it's time to change the filter paper.

Oil Flow Through Latches Signals Filtration Status

• After turning on the VITO in the deep fryer or frying pot, oil will start flowing out of the latches.

Know When to Change the Filter Paper

• You'll first notice a reduction in oil flow from the top latch.
• When no oil comes out of the bottom latch, it's time to change the filter paper and empty the box.

Sustainable, Biodegradable Filters

• Made from cellulose, VITO filters naturally decompose in landfills after use, reducing waste and supporting the environment.

No Chemicals – Just Mechanical Filtration

• VITO’s process relies on mechanical filtration, completely free from chemical additives, making it safe for you and the planet.

Yes, Filter at Frying Temperature for Best Results

Why High Temperature Matters

• Filtering is most effective when the fat is at frying temperature.
• At this temperature, the viscosity of the fat is reduced, allowing it to flow more easily.

Smoother and More Efficient Filtration

• The reduced viscosity at high temperatures ensures that the filtration process is smoother and more effective.
