Lincat Opus 800 Ignite 85cm Electric Chargrill, Model- OE8416

Lincat OE8416 Opus Ignite Electric Chargrill – 850mm, 10.8kW

NEW FROM LINCAT – THE OPUS IGNITE ELECTRIC CHARGRILL

The Lincat OE8416 Opus Ignite is part of Lincat's brand-new generation of British-made electric chargrills, developed to deliver authentic flame-grilled flavour while significantly improving energy efficiency, cleaning and usable cooking space.

Using innovative real-flame technology, Ignite provides the charred taste, aroma and appearance associated with traditional flame grilling – but from an all-electric appliance with no gas or solid fuel required.

Lincat has developed Ignite as a major step forward from its previous Direct Cook electric chargrills. According to Lincat, the OE8416 uses 41% less energy, is up to 3 times faster to clean and provides 23% more usable cooking space than its previous Direct Cook Chargrill.

Lincat's blind taste testing also found that people preferred food cooked on Ignite compared with a gas chargrill.

With its substantial 750 x 600mm cooking area and three independently controlled heat zones, the OE8416 is ideally suited to busy restaurants, pubs, hotels, steakhouses, contract caterers and other demanding commercial kitchens wanting authentic chargrilled food from an electric appliance.

Real Flame-Grilled Taste – Without Gas -

Ignite isn't simply an electric griddle designed to produce grill marks. Lincat has developed real-flame technology to give food the distinctive charred taste and aroma associated with traditional chargrilling.

Heavy-duty segmented cast-iron grids provide excellent heat retention while creating attractive branding marks across steaks, burgers, chicken, fish and vegetables.

In Lincat's blind taste testing, people actually preferred food cooked on Ignite compared with a gas chargrill.

41% Less Energy -

Efficiency has been central to the development of the new Ignite range.

Lincat states that the OE8416 uses 41% less energy compared with its previous Electric Direct Cook Chargrill, potentially providing a significant reduction in energy consumption over the working life of the appliance.

The OE8416 also features three independently controlled heat zones. Operators can therefore match the amount of active cooking surface to demand, rather than unnecessarily running the complete grill during quieter periods.

23% More Usable Cooking Space -

The OE8416 provides 23% more usable cooking space compared with Lincat's previous Direct Cook Chargrill.

Its generous 750 x 600mm cooking area provides substantially more room for high-volume service while the appliance itself remains a manageable 850mm wide.

More usable cooking space means more food can be accommodated during busy service, helping kitchens maximise throughput without simply making the equipment unnecessarily larger.

3x Faster Cleaning -

Chargrills have traditionally been among the more time-consuming pieces of cooking equipment to clean, so Lincat has made cleaning a major focus of the new Ignite design.

Lincat states that Ignite is up to 3 times faster to clean than its previous Direct Cook Chargrill.

Innovative vapourising technology turns fat and food debris into light ash which can simply be swept away.

Removable segmented cast-iron grids, an enamelled base plate and a three-piece stainless steel splashback further simplify cleaning and maintenance.

A grid-lifting tool and cleaning rake are also supplied as standard.

Important Electrical Requirement -

The OE8416 is a powerful 10.8kW commercial electric chargrill operating from a 220/240V electrical supply.

It requires a dedicated direct-hardwired electrical connection and DOES NOT operate from a standard 13A plug.

Professional installation by a suitably qualified electrician is required. Due to the substantial 10.8kW electrical load, the available electrical supply and circuit requirements should always be confirmed before ordering.

Other Opus Ignite Sizes Available -

The OE8416 is the middle-sized model within the new three-model Lincat Opus Ignite range, providing an excellent balance between cooking capacity and footprint.

For kitchens requiring a more compact appliance, choose:

* OE8415 – 600mm wide, 7.2kW, 500 x 600mm cooking area and 2 independently controlled heat zones.

For larger, particularly high-output kitchens, choose:

* OE8417 – 1100mm wide, 14.4kW, 1000 x 600mm cooking area and 4 independently controlled heat zones.

This means the new Ignite range offers a choice of 600mm, 850mm and 1100mm widths to suit different kitchen sizes and levels of demand.
