Electrolux Professional Braising Pan 587142 – Electric Tilting Pressure Braising Pan, 90lt Hygienic Profile, Freestanding with CTS

Ninety litres of rectangular pan volume over a 1200 x 900 mm body sets the 587142 up as a main-production pressure braising pan rather than a small side unit. Working from 50 to 250 °C with direct electric heating, it covers low-temperature holding through to high-temperature braising in the same vessel.

On a ship, that 90 lt capacity inside a 680 x 558 mm pan footprint helps when galley space is already committed to other thermaline or XP modules. The external height of 700 mm aligns with other freestanding ProThermetic bodies, so the rim height and lid line run consistently along a cooking block. Supply at 440 V/3 ph/50/60 Hz matches the typical 440 V marine distribution, avoiding the need for dedicated transformers in the galley panel.

The pan is a rectangular tilting design with a net vessel useful capacity of 90 lt and a vessel height of 274 mm, which gives enough depth for liquid cooking while keeping tilt distances manageable for the operator. Heating is direct, driven by a total connected load of 15.5 kW, so heat-up and recovery are tied to that installed power figure. The double jacketed lid helps hold pressure and temperature across the 50–250 °C working band, which matters when the braising pan is used as a pressure unit for dense loads.

At 1200 mm wide and 900 mm deep in plan, the unit needs a clear bay in the cooking line and a matching hood section above; those dimensions should be checked against the ventilation design and traffic routes. Net weight is 240 kg, so the foundation choice is not cosmetic. Installation options are freestanding on a concrete base, freestanding on feet, on a base unit, or standing against a wall. On vessels built around USPH-style hygiene details, the choice between feet and a concrete or stainless base is normally made to balance cleanability under the front edge against structural fixing.

Configuration is listed as Rectangular and Tilting, with an automatic tilting mechanism. Motorised tilting with a controlled stop lets the operator pour accurately into gastronorm trolleys or kettle tippers without the sudden movements that can occur with manual cranks in a moving ship. A safety valve against jacket overpressure protects the structure when the unit is used under pressure.

Build and control

• IPX6 rated against water ingress
• AISI 304 (1.4301) stainless steel construction
• AISI 316L stainless steel in wetted parts
• Stainless steel internal frame
• HACCP data logging
• USB port for HACCP data, programmes and software updates
• Network connectivity for remote monitoring
• Core temperature probe
• Can be tied into an energy-management or surveillance system
• Motorised tilting with controlled stop
• Safety valve against jacket overpressure

The IPX6 rating fits shipboard cleaning routines that rely on spray guns around heavy equipment, and the combination of AISI 304 (1.4301) for the structure with AISI 316L in the wetted parts addresses the chloride exposure inside the pan. HACCP data logging, the USB port and network connectivity matter on inspected tonnage where cooking temperatures and holding profiles must be documented rather than assumed, and the core temperature probe supports that.

This 90 lt model is a good match for vessels where braising and pressure cooking are regular tasks but floor area will not justify the larger bodies in the ProThermetic line. It is the wrong choice if production regularly exceeds what 90 lt can handle in one batch, or where only open pan frying and shallow cooking are needed and a non-pressure braising pan would be simpler.
