Lincat Opus 800 OE8114 Free Standing Electric Single Tank Fryer
£2,071.00(£2,485.20 inc VAT)
Delivery Information
Price Match
The Lincat Opus 800 OE8114 is a free-standing single-tank electric fryer from Lincat's heavier-duty Opus 800 range. It is designed for sustained commercial frying output rather than occasional or light use, sitting above entry-level equipment in terms of build quality and throughput capability.
The 19-litre tank is large enough to support continuous frying across a full lunch or evening service without requiring a drain and refill between sittings. A close-tolerance thermostat maintains consistent oil temperature through repeated batches — poor heat recovery between loads is one of the more common causes of greasy results and slower throughput in a busy kitchen. Twin baskets allow different products to run simultaneously, which helps with timing and workflow during service.
The design choices on this unit make a practical difference day to day:
- Hinged lift-out element with safety interlock makes tank access safe and straightforward during cleaning
- Inclined tank base and large-bore drain reduce the time and effort needed for oil changes
- Fully welded tank construction minimises grease traps and supports hygiene compliance
- Close-tolerance thermostat helps deliver consistent batch results throughout service
- Twin baskets allow different products to be fried simultaneously without cross-flavour issues
As a free-standing unit, the OE8114 requires a dedicated electrical supply appropriate for commercial cooking equipment — it is not a plug-in appliance. Installation must be carried out by a qualified engineer, and the unit should be positioned on a level, non-combustible surface with adequate clearance on all sides. Ventilation must meet local extraction requirements. Operators should confirm their electrical infrastructure is suitable before ordering.
This fryer is well suited to pubs, cafés, school kitchens, and smaller restaurants where frying is a regular but not dominant part of service. High-volume operations such as fish and chip shops or large quick-service restaurants are likely to need a twin-tank or higher-output model to meet throughput demands. For lower-volume sites or back-bar use, a countertop fryer may be a more proportionate choice.
If you want to talk through whether this model is the right fit for your service volumes and kitchen setup, our team is happy to work through it with you before you commit.
Frequently asked questions
Is this fryer suitable for a high-volume fish and chip shop or quick-service restaurant?
The OE8114 is built for regular commercial frying, but high-volume operations with constant back-to-back demand are generally better served by a twin-tank or higher-output model. If you are unsure whether this unit matches your expected throughput, it is worth talking through your service volumes before ordering.
What are the installation requirements for the OE8114?
This is a free-standing commercial appliance that requires a dedicated electrical supply — it cannot be plugged into a standard socket. Installation must be carried out by a qualified engineer, and the unit needs to be positioned on a level, non-combustible surface with adequate clearance and ventilation meeting local extraction requirements. Confirm your electrical infrastructure is appropriate before purchasing.
How does the hinged element design help with day-to-day kitchen operation?
The lift-out element with safety interlock allows the heating element to be raised clear of the tank without tools, making thorough cleaning of the tank walls and base significantly easier and safer. This reduces the effort involved in end-of-day cleaning and helps maintain oil quality by making it more practical to remove sediment regularly.
