MKN Tilting Bratt Pan / Griddle 7EGPF080XM – Electric

37 litres of pan capacity defines the working size of the MKN 7EGPF080XM tilting bratt pan. That volume suits medium batch production on a line where several modules share the load rather than a single oversized kettle carrying the whole menu.

On board, a self-contained 37 litre electric module is usually specified into an Optima-style cooking line where deck area is tight and production is split across multiple appliances. The capacity is large enough to handle sauces, side dishes or components for a full sitting without carrying excess liquid weight in the pan. Galleys working to marine power and HVAC constraints tend to favour this scale: it provides usable production without the heat and steam output of much larger vessels, and fits into layouts where equipment runs in blocks instead of occupying isolated islands.

Technically, this unit is an electric tilting bratt pan engineered around that 37 litre working volume. The pan size allows uniform heating of liquids and semi-liquid foods without driving up fill times or heat-up demands to the level associated with higher capacities. On a ship, where electrical supply is shared across galleys, laundry and hotel services, that balance between capacity and demand is often what decides the specification. The geometry also makes sense for standard portioning: a 37 litre batch can be split across multiple service counters or held in smaller gastronorm containers without having to rework recipes each time.

The module sits in MKN’s marine programme, with the 7EGPF080XM article number identifying it in the project schedule and spare parts system. That matters during refits and dry-dock work, where like-for-like replacement of a single cooking position in a bank of modules relies on clear identification rather than visual matching alone. In day-to-day use, the defined capacity helps the galley set process limits: how much stock or sauce can be prepared in one run, how far to push reduction, and when to stage production into a second batch instead of overfilling the pan.

Build and control

• IP-rated water protection

IP-rated water protection is a practical point in a marine galley, where cleaning is done with hoses rather than cloths. It lets the yard and operator treat the module as part of a washable cooking block, instead of having to mask off sensitive areas at every cleaning shift. That reduces cleaning time and lowers the risk of water ingress issues during the life of the vessel.

This 37 litre module is the right choice where the menu calls for repeated medium batches and the cooking line is built from several coordinated appliances. It is not the best fit where a single piece of equipment is expected to carry large-volume boiling or stewing on its own; in that case the larger-body kettles and pans in the same brand line should be considered.
