Electrolux Professional Induction Wok 589928 – thermaline 90, 1 Zone Induction Wok, 1 Side

Five kilowatts fed into a single Ø 300 induction zone is what defines the Electrolux Professional 589928 wok top. With a 500 x 900 x 250 mm body, it occupies a full-depth, half‑metre module in a thermaline 90 cooking line dedicated to wok work.

The specified 440 V/3 ph/60 Hz supply sits directly in the marine pattern, so the unit drops onto an existing shipboard distribution without calling for a special voltage. Data‑plate current consumption is 6.8 Amps, which is straightforward to accommodate on a crowded galley switchboard when allocating ways and breakers. Being configured as a one‑side‑operated top matches linear cooking layouts where all work is done from a single service face, such as a range running along a bulkhead.

Top geometry is simple: the induction top width of 500 mm and depth of 900 mm match the external dimensions. For the yard this means bench cut‑outs, underframes and plinths can be set directly from the footprint without allowing for overhang or dead zones. At 250 mm high it aligns with other thermaline 90 tops, which matters when specifying adjacent appliances and setting any pass or protection rails to a consistent level. The Ø 300 back plate dimension defines the active induction field; that is the area that receives the 5 kW output, matching the base of a dedicated wok while leaving the surrounding surface cooler.

A net weight of 50 kg is light enough for handling into position but significant once welded or bolted to a base or plinth. That figure feeds into decisions on how much structure is needed under the top, particularly for cantilevered or wall‑mounted installations. Because the configuration is a top only, the project can choose an open frame, cupboard base or wall brackets beneath it, all working from the same 500 x 900 mm reference.

IPX6 water‑ingress protection is relevant in a marine galley where cleaning is by hose and spray gun rather than by wiping around equipment. AISI 304 (1.4301) stainless steel construction with a stainless steel internal frame, built to DIN 18860-2 with a drop‑nose worktop, gives a defined front edge and plinth setback for the designer setting stainless bases and coving. Compliance with Swiss Energy Efficiency Ordinance 730.02 addresses owners who now ask for explicit references on energy use at each cooking position rather than only headline connected load.

Build and control

• IPX6 rated against water ingress
• AISI 304 (1.4301) stainless steel construction
• Built to DIN 18860-2 with drop-nose worktop
• Stainless steel internal frame
• Compliant with Swiss Energy Efficiency Ordinance 730.02
• Overheat cut-out
• Front access to components for service
• Metal knobs with hygienic soft-touch grips

Front access to components is significant where tops are fixed hard to bases to meet hygiene and stability requirements and cannot easily be slid forward. Being able to reach service items from the operator side reduces the risk that a repair means cutting welds or disturbing the surrounding line. The overheat cut‑out protects the induction electronics and the vessel in abusive conditions or where the wrong cookware is placed on the zone.

This 589928 module is the right choice where the brief calls for a single, focused induction wok station integrated into a thermaline 90 run on a 440 V/3 ph/60 Hz supply. It is the wrong choice for a galley that needs flat induction zones for general pan work or several wok positions grouped on one frame, because it is defined as a one‑zone induction wok top only.
