Why this free standing fryer earns its place
Built for the daily rigours of a busy commercial kitchen, this Lincat Opus 800 fryer combines a heavy-duty stainless steel body with a 25 litre single tank and two baskets. It is a free standing propane gas model with a 600 mm width, 800 mm depth and 1070 mm height, so it brings full fryer capacity without pretending to be a compact unit.
The pumped filtration system is the standout feature. Lincat says the oil can be filtered and the fryer ready to fry again in under 5 minutes, with filtration possible during or after service, even while the oil is hot. That is useful if you need to stretch oil life without stopping the line.
It runs at 230V with a 30,000 W rated input and works from +90 to +190 °C. The stainless steel finish, 122 kg gross weight and 2 year parts and labour warranty round out a fryer that is clearly aimed at serious service work rather than light occasional use.
