Heat comes entirely from the gas burner. For operations in regions where electricity is unreliable or where a 6 kW electrical connection would require costly infrastructure work, this makes the gas <strong>donut fryer<\/strong> significantly easier and cheaper to install than an electric equivalent.<\/p>\n<h2>Where Gas Donut Fryers Make Commercial Sense<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Africa and the Middle East<\/strong> \u2014 LPG is widely available and typically cheaper per unit of heat than grid electricity<\/li>\n<li><strong>South and Southeast Asia<\/strong> \u2014 high ambient temperatures and variable grid supply favour gas heating<\/li>\n<li><strong>Mobile and event catering<\/strong> \u2014 LPG cylinders allow operation without mains power<\/li>\n<li><strong>High-volume shops<\/strong> \u2014 faster thermal recovery between batches sustains higher effective throughput<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>RMT-100BU: Micro-Computer Control at 2,300 pcs\/hour<\/h2>\n<p>The RMT-100BU is the highest-output double row unit in the gas range. The micro-computer panel provides digital temperature readout, programmable frying time, an auto\/manual mode switch and a piece counter \u2014 useful where multiple operators share the machine and settings need to be repeatable across shifts.<\/p>\n<h2>Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n<details>\n<summary>Is a gas donut fryer cheaper to run than electric?<\/summary>\n<div>\n<p>In most markets where LPG or natural gas is readily available, yes \u2014 gas typically costs less per unit of delivered heat than grid electricity. The gap is widest in regions with high electricity tariffs. Calculate using your local gas and electricity prices, since the ratio varies significantly by country.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>What gas connection does the machine require?<\/summary>\n<div>\n<p>The RMT-100B and RMT-100BU accept LPG (propane\/butane cylinder) or piped natural gas. The regulator and connection type are specified at the order stage to match your local standard. Adequate ventilation is required, as with any commercial gas fryer.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>Can the dual fuel model switch between gas and electric mid-production?<\/summary>\n<div>\n<p>The RMT-100A is designed so the operator can select the heat source before starting a run. Switching mid-batch is not recommended as the thermal profile differs between the two heating methods.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>Is propane (LPG) compatible?<\/summary>\n<div>\n<p>Yes. Both gas models run on propane\/LPG or natural gas. Specify which at the order stage so the correct injector and regulator are fitted.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>Can these be upgraded to four rows?<\/summary>\n<div>\n<p>Yes. All three gas models can be customised to a four-row configuration for higher output. Contact us with your target throughput and we will confirm the specification and pricing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<h2>Related Products<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"\/product\/commercial-donut-machine-double-row-rmt-100\/\">Commercial Donut Machine RMT-100<\/a> \u2014 the electric double row equivalent<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/bakery-equipment\/donut-machine\/\">All Donut Machines<\/a> \u2014 full R&#038;M donut equipment range<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/bakery-equipment\/\">All Bakery.html Equipment<\/a> \u00b7 <a href=\"\/bakery-equipment\/supporting-bakery-machine\/\">Supporting Bakery.html Machines<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/contact\/\">Request Gas Model Pricing<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Reference: <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Deep_fryer\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">commercial deep fryer technology<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/gas-donut-fryer-rmt-100a-100b-lpg-4-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Commercial gas donut fryer stainless steel body 74kg heavy duty donut making machine\" class=\"wp-image-1999\" srcset=\"wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/gas-donut-fryer-rmt-100a-100b-lpg-4-1024x768.jpg 1024w, wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/gas-donut-fryer-rmt-100a-100b-lpg-4-800x600.jpg 800w, wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/gas-donut-fryer-rmt-100a-100b-lpg-4-768x576.jpg 768w, wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/gas-donut-fryer-rmt-100a-100b-lpg-4-16x12.jpg 16w, wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/gas-donut-fryer-rmt-100a-100b-lpg-4.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>R&#038;M manufactures the donut fryer in three fuel configurations for markets where electricity supply is expensive, unstable or unavailable.
