Electrolux Professional Boiling Pan 587179 – Steam Tilting Boiling Pan, 100lt Wall mounted d=900

One hundred litres of net useful capacity in a 640 mm diameter round vessel defines the Electrolux Professional 587179 boiling pan. That volume sits in a 1200 × 900 mm wall-mounted body at 400 mm height, so the unit delivers a sizeable batch without occupying floor space.

For a shipboard galley, the key number on this model is not electrical power but steam consumption: 45 kg per hour from an external source at 1 to 1.5 bar. The ship’s steam plant is what carries the cooking load, while the pan itself only needs a 230 V/1 ph/50/60 Hz supply at 0.2 kW for controls and motorised tilting. That split matters in a machinery room already feeding other high-demand consumers; the electrical load of this pan is negligible next to the steam draw.

The working temperature range is 50 to 110 °C, on an indirect heating system through a double jacket. With steam supplied between 1 and 1.5 bar, the pan can hold product within that band without exposing it to direct flame or elements. The double jacketed lid helps keep heat and condensate inside the system, so the 100 lt capacity can be used for long cooking without the same evaporation losses as an open kettle. AISI 316L stainless steel is used in the wetted parts, while the overall construction and internal frame are in AISI 304 (1.4301) stainless steel, matching corrosion resistance in the vessel with a strong stainless chassis around it.

Mounted at 400 mm body height and fixed to the bulkhead, the 587179 leaves the deck beneath clear for cleaning and drainage while still keeping the 395 mm deep vessel at a workable loading height. Net weight is 180 kg, so the wall mounting has to be planned with the yard’s structural team, but once in place the pan does not compete for deck area with mobile equipment. A 3/4" steam inlet connects it to the ship’s steam ring main, with the datasheet specifying a relative dynamic pressure of 1 min bar to 1.5 max bar. Service water and other utilities sit on a 2–6 bar pressure window, which aligns with common ship service lines.

Automatic tilting is standard, with a motorised mechanism and controlled stop, so the 100 lt vessel can be emptied with predictable flow into a matching receiving container. The configuration is round and tilting, which simplifies cleaning and reduces product hang-up at corners.

This wall-mounted pan suits a galley that already has a 1 to 1.5 bar steam supply and needs 100 lt batch boiling without adding significant electrical load or taking up deck space. It is the wrong choice where there is no central steam available, or where batch sizes are far below 100 lt and a smaller vessel would be easier to keep loaded and turned.
