Electrolux Professional Fry Top 589836 – thermaline 90, Half Module Freestanding Electric Fry Top, 1 Side, H=700- H3

A 300 x 615 mm smooth chromium-plated plate on a 400 x 900 x 700 mm body defines the footprint and working area of the 589836. With 5.1 kW connected load and a working band from 80 to 280 °C, it is sized for focused à la carte or finishing work rather than bulk frying.

Supply is 440 V/3 ph/50/60 Hz, so it drops into a standard marine distribution without step-down transformers or special feeds. At 7 Amps current consumption, this half-module places a modest demand on the galley board, which matters on vessels where several thermaline modules, warewashing and ventilation are sharing the same section. The unit is one-side operated and configured on base, so cooks stay on the service side and the underside gives a storage cavity rather than open legs.

External width of 400 mm makes this a true half-module within the thermaline 90 line. That allows it to sit in a Thermodul run beside other 900 mm deep units without disturbing the geometry of the block. The storage cavity under the plate is 340 mm wide, 330 mm high and 740 mm deep, which is a usable space for pans and tools directly under the hot surface. Net weight is 91 kg, so the plinth or deck fixing needs to be specified as part of the galley structure, not treated as loose equipment.

The cooking surface itself is a smooth chromium plated mild steel mirror plate. That brings fast heat transfer and an even surface across the 300 mm width, giving a defined zone for portion work where temperature has to be controlled precisely in the 80–280 °C range. Drainage is to a removable collection tray, which keeps fats and residues off the deck and moves cleaning into a controlled component rather than an open scupper job.

Build and control

• IPX5 rated against water ingress

• Metal knobs with hygienic soft-touch grips

This configuration suits a line where a compact, one-side operated fry surface is needed as part of a larger 900 mm deep cooking suite, and where 5.1 kW at 440 V/3 ph fits comfortably within the available electrical budget. It is the wrong choice for a galley looking to handle large volumes of grilled product on a single appliance, which should be looking higher up the width and power scale in the same thermaline 90 family.
