MKN Cooking Module 7EHEI082DF8B – Electric, Induction

Twenty kilowatts of electrical power on a single induction module sets the 7EHEI082DF8B up as a primary cooking position rather than a support hob. That power level, coupled with a hinged lid and IP-rated water protection, makes it suitable for pan work and boiling where spillage and spray are expected in service.

On board, the quoted 380–415 V electrical supply matches the voltage band many ship galley sub-boards are already built around. That lets the yard or refit team bring this unit into an existing distribution without treating it as a special case in the panel schedule. The published latent and sensible heat emissions matter as much as the supply figures: in a closed galley every watt not going into food becomes a load for the ventilation and cooling plant.

Installed electrical power is 20 kW. That number belongs in the main switchboard calculation, in cable sizing and in any automatic load-shedding logic the vessel uses to protect generators. Where several 7EHEI082DF8B modules share one section, their combined draw can become one of the dominant consumers during peak service, so the planner needs that figure up front. The declared heat rejection is split as 560 W latent and 1400 W sensible, so just under 2 kW of the electrical input is assured to reappear in the room as moisture and dry heat. Those values go directly into the HVAC design to size extract, make-up air and cooling duty.

The electrical supply rating of 380–415 V keeps the module aligned with common marine three-phase systems and simplifies replacement of legacy electric cooking equipment fed from the same band. In daily use, the combination of induction technology, a hinged lid and IP-rated water protection gives the crew a defined working area: the lid can be used to contain vapour and splashes over the pan, while the ingress protection allows routine cleaning regimes that use water without exposing the internals. Knowing that the latent heat emission is 560 W and the sensible portion is 1400 W also helps the superintendent decide where to position this module relative to local make-up air and canopy capture.

Build and control

• Hinged lid
• IP-rated water protection

This configuration is a strong fit where a galley needs concentrated cooking power on a 380–415 V supply and where the HVAC and electrical infrastructure have been sized to absorb a 20 kW cooking position plus the stated 560 W latent and 1400 W sensible heat emissions. It is the wrong choice for a small pantry or auxiliary space built around lighter-duty circuits and very limited cooling capacity, where introducing a 20 kW module and its associated heat load would exceed the available electrical and ventilation margins.
