Electrolux Professional Boiling Pan 587178 – Steam Tilting Boiling Pan, 100lt Freestanding, Hygienic profile - Eelctronic

One hundred litres of useful capacity in a 640 mm diameter round vessel defines the 587178: a steam-fed tilting boiling pan sized for medium production runs. With an external footprint of 1200 x 900 mm at 700 mm body height, it occupies a predictable block in a cook-chill or cook-serve line.

On a vessel, the external steam source and the low electrical draw change how this pan fits into the engineering balance. Steam consumption is quoted at 45 kg/hr, with the supply sitting between 1 and 1.5 bar relative dynamic pressure on a 3/4" inlet. That lets the heat load land on the ship’s steam plant rather than the galley’s electrical allocation, while the 230 V/1 ph/50/60 Hz connection at 0.2 kW is little more than a control and drive load.

The vessel is a round, double-jacketed body with a 395 mm depth and a net useful capacity of 100 lt. Heating is indirect through the double jacket, which is fed from the ship’s steam line rather than by an internal generator. Working temperature is controlled between 50 °C and 110 °C, so it sits comfortably in the range needed for soups, sauces and bulk boiling where tight control below boiling point matters. The double jacketed lid and the jacketed body work together to stabilise the cooking temperature and reduce heat loss into the galley, which in turn eases the burden on the HVAC plant around it.

The unit is configured as a freestanding tilting pan with several installation options listed: FS on concrete base, FS on feet, on base, or standing against a wall. That flexibility matters when the galley is being laid out around deck penetrations and scuppers. Net weight is 180 kg, so tying the frame into a concrete base or a welded plinth is about stability under way as much as hygiene. The configuration is round and tilting with an automatic tilting mechanism, giving controlled discharge and simplifying cleaning, especially when combined with the controlled stop noted in the feature set.

This pan is a strong fit where a ship already has a stable low-pressure steam network and wants to keep heavy thermal loads off the electrical bus. It is the wrong choice for a small galley without central steam, where an electrically heated jacketed pan would avoid the need for steam pipework and controls. The 100 lt capacity also means a very small crew complement may be better served by a smaller body to avoid heating partial loads.
