Why this free standing fryer earns its place
The Lincat Opus 800 Free Standing Electric Fryer DM524 is built for busy commercial kitchens that need a compact, hard-working fryer with straightforward day-to-day control. It sits in a 300 mm wide footprint, yet still gives you a 17 litre tank and a stated output of 40 kg/hr, so it is aimed at kitchens that need serious frying capacity without giving away much counter or floor space.
It is made from stainless steel in a silver finish, with a gross weight of 60.3 kg. The fryer runs on 230/240V, takes a 12,000 W input and can be supplied on single or three phase, which gives installers flexibility for the right site. The temperature range runs from 90 to 190 °C, so it is set up for the heat control you expect from a commercial fryer.
Lincat describes the Opus 800 fryer as a unit designed to cope with the everyday rigours of a busy kitchen, with heavy duty performance, excellent reliability, accurate control, super fast recovery, simple operation and easy cleaning. This model has one basket and one tank, making it a clear, focused fryer for sites that want a compact single-tank unit rather than a larger or more specialised filtration setup.
