Specifying marine induction cookers

Power spread from 5 to 28 kW in Optima 850

On this page the workhorses are MKN Optima 850 induction cooking tables, running between 5 and 28 kW per unit and up to four zones on a footprint 400 to 800 mm wide. That lets a main line be built around single- and multi-zone modules without jumping to a different series for higher power.
Most of the remaining MKN induction tables sit in the Optima 700, CounterSL and HotLine ranges, all at 400 mm to 800 mm widths, with electrical power capped at 18.55 kW in Optima 700 and 14 kW in HotLine and CounterSL. That split is useful where the main galley takes Optima 850 and satellite stations need the same induction behaviour, but on a lighter, lower-output chassis.

Thermaline 90 tops and woks at 440 V supply

Electrolux Professional thermaline 90 covers the induction top and wok side of this category, all listed here at 440 V and widths from 500 to 1000 mm. Net weights in this series run from 18 to 197 kg, so the same 440 V backbone can carry both very compact modules and heavy multi-zone tops.
Across the full category, voltages listed are 380–415 V, 400 V and 440 V, with 50 Hz and 60 Hz all present in smaller numbers. That mix matters when a refit has to align shore-power, existing distribution and a new induction suite: thermaline 90 is the obvious match for a 440 V line, while most MKN modules in this list are specified at 400 V.

Widths, weights and zoning for galley layout

Across the 41 products, published widths run from 400 to 1000 mm, with a concentration between 401 and 800 mm that suits modular cooking lines. The smallest Optima 850 wok table, article 10010302, sits on a 600 x 850 mm footprint with a single 5 kW zone and a 350 x 350 mm working surface, at 48 kg net. At the other end of the Optima 850 scale, article 2023110 delivers 28 kW on an 800 x 850 mm body with a 700 x 690 mm working surface and a 98 kg net weight.
Zone counts in the range run from compact single-zone units up to four-zone tables, with one-zone equipment in the majority. That is often the cleaner solution on a vessel, where power distribution and maintenance planning favour several independent modules rather than one very large multi-zone top.

Features, hygiene standards and washdown

Most of the MKN cooking tables in Optima 700, Optima 850, CounterSL and HotLine are both induction heated and marked as DIN 18851 certified. That gives a consistent design and testing reference across lines of different depths and heights. A subset of products in this category also carry a washdown-protected feature, which is relevant in galleys cleaned with hoses rather than mops.
Hinged lids appear on a smaller group of units. Not every induction module here is marketed as induction heated in the facet set, so a buyer tuning an existing energy balance around induction should filter explicitly on that attribute.

Specifying for different vessel types

Every product on this page sits under Marine Galley Equipment, with most also tagged for ship and commercial vessel use and a substantial subset for yachts, offshore units and smaller boats. Deck loading varies more than the footprint suggests: listed net weights run from 18 to 197 kg across the category, so there is scope to combine heavier main-line tops with lighter satellites.
Frequency markings are thinner than voltage data, but the presence of both 50 Hz and 60 Hz supply on several units indicates that mixed-fleet operators can build a largely standardised equipment set if they pick series carefully. The key step in specification is to lock down the ship’s actual distribution and then select between 400 V and 440 V families, rather than assume everything in the induction range shares one electrical pattern.

When to look at Boiling Kettles or Bratt Pans instead

This induction page is about contact cooking and wok work, not about liquid volume or pressure cooking. Where the duty is bulk soups, sauces or boiling in the 60 to 500 litre band, the Boiling Kettles category is the correct starting point. If the requirement is shallow frying, braising or pressure braising on tilting pans rather than cooking on flat tops or woks, the Bratt Pans section will be a better fit than any induction table listed here.

Questions about marine induction cookers

How should I choose between Optima 700 and Optima 850 induction cooking tables for a ship galley?

Optima 850 units in this range run from 5 to 28 kW on 400–800 mm widths, while Optima 700 tops here are 5 to 18.55 kW over the same width band. For a main production line that needs the higher connected power, Optima 850 is the series to look at, with Optima 700 suited to smaller stations or where the galley line depth is constrained.

What should I watch on voltage and frequency when specifying marine induction cookers?

In this category, MKN induction tables are listed at 400 V, while all thermaline 90 tops and woks sit at 440 V, with the wider range also showing 380–415 V on some items. Frequencies present include 50 Hz and 60 Hz, so the selection needs to follow the ship’s distribution rather than assuming a single voltage/frequency pair across the board.

How heavy are marine induction tops and what does that mean for deck loading?

Published net weights in this category run from 18 to 197 kg, with thermaline 90 alone spanning that full range. An Optima 850 wok table such as article 10010302 is 48 kg net, while a higher-output Optima 850 table like 2023110 is 98 kg, so naval architects can mix lighter satellite units with heavier main-line modules to suit local deck structure.

Where do induction woks fit into a marine galley compared with flat induction tops?

On this page, induction woks come as thermaline 90 woks, listed alongside flat induction tops in the 500–1000 mm width band, and as MKN wok tables such as Optima 850 article 10010302 with a single 5 kW zone. They are usually deployed for fast à la minute work, while flat tops and cooking tables handle general production, allowing a galley to keep all high-output cooking on induction while tailoring the surface to the menu.
