Lincat Opus 800 Cook & Hold Electric Salamander Grill, 4.5kw / Single Phase, Model- OE8306

Lincat OE8306 Opus 800 Electric Cook & Hold Salamander Grill – 4.5kW, 600mm

The Lincat OE8306 is a sophisticated heavy-duty electric Cook & Hold salamander grill from the Opus 800 range, combining extremely fast heat-up with intelligent energy-saving technology.

Unlike a conventional salamander that may be left running throughout service, the OE8306 uses fast-response Hi-Light elements that are ready to cook in just 8 seconds. Its intelligent plate detection system activates when a plate or gastronorm pan is positioned beneath the grill and automatically switches the heating elements off when it is removed.

This makes the OE8306 an excellent choice for businesses looking to reduce unnecessary electricity consumption and heat output into the kitchen, without compromising on speed during busy service.

Three independently controlled heating zones provide further opportunity to save energy, allowing you to use only the area of the grill required rather than powering the complete cooking area unnecessarily.

The Cook & Hold function adds further versatility. Once cooking is complete, the hold setting keeps food warm ready for service without continuing to cook it.

A self-balancing height-adjustable grill hood allows the heat source to be positioned at the optimum distance from the food, while touchpad controls with a digital display provide straightforward adjustment of cooking time and power.

IMPORTANT – ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

The OE8306 is a 4.5kW commercial appliance and is NOT suitable for connection to a standard UK 13A socket.

It can be installed on either a 230V single-phase or 400V three-phase electrical supply:

230V Single Phase – 4.5kW / 19.6A – hardwired.

400V Three Phase – 4.5kW / 6.5A per phase – hardwired.

Whichever electrical configuration is chosen, the OE8306 requires a dedicated electrical supply and professional hardwired installation by a suitably qualified electrician.

Energy-Saving Design -

The OE8306 has been specifically designed to avoid wasting energy when the grill is not actually being used.

Its Hi-Light elements reach cooking temperature in just 8 seconds, reducing the need to leave the salamander continuously powered throughout service.

The plate detection system automatically switches the elements off when the plate or gastronorm pan is removed, while three independently controlled heating zones allow only the required section of the grill to be operated.

As well as reducing unnecessary electricity consumption, switching off unused heating elements can help reduce unwanted heat being released into the kitchen – particularly beneficial in busy commercial kitchens where cooking equipment can contribute significantly to ambient temperatures.
