MKN Combi Steamer DKECOD115-615G2 – Oven, Electric, FlexiCombi

Six plus ten GN 1/1 insertion levels in one column and a published maximum load of 54 + 90 kg set the DKECOD115-615G2 apart inside the FlexiCombi range. In a single footprint it carries both 6 and 10 level sections, with matching FlexiRack capacity of 6 + 10 racks.

On a ship, that tiered capacity matters more than in a shore kitchen because service peaks and plant limitations are harder to work around. The data sheet gives a meals-per-day range of 30–230 on GN 1/1 loading and 30–350 on FlexiRack, so the same body can be run either as a conventional 1/1 GN oven or crosswise on FlexiRack where the headcount pushes higher. That flexibility helps a superintendent align galley output with crew and passenger numbers without changing the deck plan.

Externally the unit measures 997 x 799 x 1900 mm. The 997 mm length and 799 mm width define the footprint that has to be allowed for in the cooking line; the 1900 mm height will drive the deckhead clearance and any extraction or overhead duct routing above it. Net weight is 282 kg, which is the figure to put into the structural and floor loading calculation for the galley block. Supply is 400 V electric, with quoted electrical power of 10.4 + 15.9, reflecting the combined demand of the upper and lower sections that share this chassis.

The published maximum load weight of 54 + 90 kg tells you how much product the oven can carry safely when both levels are used as intended. That, combined with the two sets of meals-per-day figures, is what allows a designer to translate menu cycles into tray counts and programme durations without relying on rule-of-thumb multipliers. For a vessel that is provisioning infrequently and running full occupancy, operating closer to the 350 meals per day FlexiRack figure will be the normal case; for a smaller complement, the lower end of the 30-meal range leaves enough margin for off-peak batches or special diets.

Build and control

• FlexiCombi series configuration
• GN 1/1 capacity 6 + 10 levels
• FlexiRack capacity 6 + 10 racks
• Meals-per-day rating: 30–230 (GN 1/1)
• Meals-per-day rating: 30–350 (FlexiRack)
• Electric heating, 400 V supply
• Combined electrical power rating 10.4 + 15.9
• Net weight 282 kg

This is the right oven where a galley needs two combi-chambers in one 997 x 799 mm footprint and expects to serve up to the quoted 350 meals per day with FlexiRack loading. It is the wrong choice for a very small crew galley that will never approach the lower end of the 30 meals per day band; in that case a single smaller FlexiCombi body would save electrical power and deck space.
