MKN Ceramic Cooking Table 7EHEV042XT – Electric

Six point five kilowatts of electric power on a compact ceramic cooking table sets the 7EHEV042XT up as a focused, medium-duty hob module rather than a full range. At a net weight of 44 kg it is light enough to integrate into an island or line-up without driving the structural design of the foundation.

On a shipboard galley, the declared 380–415 V electrical supply is directly compatible with common three-phase marine distributions, so the unit can be specified without step-down transformers. Electrical power at 6.5 kW also sits in a range that is easier to feed from a constrained galley sub-board than a large boiling appliance. For HVAC planning, MKN quotes 520 W of latent heat emission and 1300 W of sensible heat emission; those numbers are part of the air-handling calculation rather than the cooking schedule. A hinged lid and IP-rated water protection address two marine-specific issues: cleaning with spray systems and the need to keep hot surfaces contained when not in use.

Compliance with DIN 18851 links the construction to commercial-kitchen expectations on hygiene and cleanability. That is relevant aboard where inspection regimes follow the same logic as shore-side codes, and where galley equipment has to prove it can be cleaned down thoroughly between services. The ceramic plate under a hinged lid gives a continuous surface that can be wiped and inspected easily, and the lid itself protects against accidental contact and splash when the zone is not required. Gross weight is 66 kg, which matters when the logistics of bringing equipment aboard and manoeuvring it into a confined galley are considered.

From a technical standpoint, the 6.5 kW rating defines how many pans can be kept at working temperature and how quickly the surface recovers after loading. Tying that to a 380–415 V supply keeps current levels reasonable and allows standard marine breakers and cabling sizes to be used. In a multi-appliance suite, the 520 W of latent and 1300 W of sensible heat emission contribute to the overall heat load; on a small vessel this can be a deciding factor if the air-conditioning system is close to its limit. IP-rated water protection means routine cleaning with hoses or spray lances can be considered in the installation method, provided the rest of the galley meets the same ingress-protection standard.

Build and control

• Complies with DIN 18851 for commercial kitchens
• Hinged lid over the ceramic cooking surface
• IP-rated water protection

This ceramic cooking table suits galleys that need an electric, medium-power hob module tied to a 380–415 V supply, with known heat emissions for HVAC design. It is not the right choice where very high-output boiling or large multi-zone frying is required, because 6.5 kW sets an upper bound on what the unit can deliver.
