Overview

Waldorf PC8140G 800 Series 450mm Gas Pasta Cooker

The Waldorf PC8140G is a high-performance 450mm single-pan gas pasta cooker from the 800 Series, designed for the demands of busy commercial kitchens, pasta bars and high-volume food service operations. Built on a fully modular platform and manufactured in New Zealand, it features a patented infrared burner system that delivers a consistent 47MJ/hr of heat output, maintaining steady water temperature to minimise recovery times between batches and keep service moving without interruption.

The unit holds 40 litres in an easy-clean 316 grade stainless steel open pan and comes supplied with six stainless steel pasta baskets for efficient portion control. Practical design details include an integrated water fill and starch-skimming faucet, a fine-adjustment faucet for precise pan filling, a safety cut-out thermostat to protect against empty-pan or boil-out conditions, an incorporated basket drain stand, adjustable feet, and additional rear rollers for repositioning. Available in both natural gas and LPG configurations with a 3/4 BSP male gas connection.
