The Lincat OE8416 Opus 800 Ignite Electric Chargrill is the mid-size model in Lincat’s brand-new Ignite range – a series of real-flame electric chargrills designed to bring open-fire flavour to modern, efficient kitchens. At 850 mm wide with three independent heat zones, the OE8416 offers higher output capacity and greater flexibility for busy restaurants, pubs and grill lines.
Authentic Flame Cooking
Blind taste tests show diners prefer food cooked on Ignite compared with gas chargrills – proof that electric can taste even better. Innovative real-flame technology replicates the flavour and aroma of open-fire cooking, while heavy-duty cast-iron grids deliver distinct branding marks and even heat distribution across the entire grill surface.
Efficient and Sustainable
Compared with Lincat’s previous Direct Cook Chargrill, Ignite models use 41 % less energy and clean up to three times faster. Its intelligent vapourising system turns fat and food debris into light ash for simple end-of-service cleaning – no grease trays or water baths required.
Flexible Performance
Three independently controlled heat zones allow chefs to grill different items at varying temperatures simultaneously, or shut down zones during quiet periods to save energy. The OE8416 fits comfortably on a chef base or counter and is ideal for sites that need the output of a larger unit without a full 1 m footprint.
Built for Easy Cleaning and Maintenance
- Removable segmented cast-iron grids for easy access and cleaning
- Enamelled base plate beneath grids prevents build-up and wipes clean in seconds
- Three-piece stainless-steel splashback to protect surrounding areas
- Grid-lifting tool and cleaning rake included as standard
- Vapourising system reduces fat and debris to ash for quick sweep-out cleaning
Accessories and Installation Options
Supplied with legs and locating cups for secure placement on a chef base. Optional accessories include:
- Single resting rack for cooked items
- Garnish rail for GN 1/9 pots
- Purpose-built stand for free-standing installation
The Opus Ignite Electric Chargrill Range
The OE8416 sits between the 600 mm OE8415 and the 1,100 mm OE8417, sharing the same flame-grilled technology and energy-saving design while offering greater capacity through three heat zones and six elements. All models deliver identical results with different service outputs to suit kitchens of any size.
