Electrolux Professional Neutral Base Unit 589803 – thermaline 90, 1500 mm Open base, 1 Side (H3) - H=450

One thousand five hundred millimetres of neutral support depth-matched to the thermaline 90 line is what defines the 589803 base. At 450 mm body height and 900 mm depth, it carries a full-length top module while still leaving room for services and cleaning below.

On a shipboard line, neutral bases are planned as much for what passes under and around them as for what sits on top. This unit’s 450 mm height sets the vertical datum for a one-side-operated thermaline 90 block, while the 900 mm depth ties it into the rest of the series. With an open H3 configuration, the area below remains accessible for inspection, cleaning with spray guns and routing of pipework or cable trays, which matters in galleys built to USPH construction expectations.

The usable cupboard cavity is 840 mm wide, 740 mm deep and 330 mm high. That footprint takes standard thermaline 90 tops across most of the catalogue while leaving open storage volume below for pans, containers or light equipment that does not need a closed cupboard. Net weight is 29 kg, so the base is substantial enough to stabilise the module above without becoming difficult to handle during installation or refit.

External dimensions of 1500 × 900 × 450 mm also play directly into space planning. A designer can allocate exactly one and a half metres of line to this section, knowing that it will sit flush with adjacent 900 mm deep modules. The 330 mm cavity height is deliberate: high enough for practical storage, low enough that the structure above can sit at the planned working height once feet, plinth or cantilever brackets are added elsewhere in the system design.

Build and control

• IPX5 rated against water ingress
• AISI 304 (1.4301) stainless steel construction
• Stainless steel internal frame
• Rounded internal corners for cleaning
• Front access to components for service

IPX5 protection means the base stands up to washdown with low-pressure jets, as expected in marine galleys where cleaning is done with spray lances rather than cloths. The AISI 304 (1.4301) stainless steel shell over a stainless internal frame gives the structure the rigidity and corrosion resistance needed for long service in a salt-laden environment, while rounded internal corners cut down on soil traps and make fast work of routine cleaning.

This is the right choice where a 1500 mm run of thermaline 90 equipment needs an open, hygienic support with accessible under-counter space rather than closed storage or appliances in the body. It is the wrong choice where the brief calls for integrated cupboards with doors or where undercounter volume has to be maximised in smaller galleys that cannot spare open space.
