MKN Cooking Module 7EPST032XF – Electric

121 litres of capacity in a single pan sets the MKN 7EPST032XF up for production-scale cooking on a compact footprint. FlexPower heating at 14.7 kW gives this electric cooking module the input needed to keep a full pan moving through a service.

On a shipboard galley, 121 litres is a batch size that can cover a full crew meal or a production run for chilling, without forcing the designer into multiple smaller vessels. The 380–415 V, 3 N-PE AC/50 Hz electrical supply sits in the range a yard expects on a main galley distribution, which simplifies integration into an existing panel schedule. At 207 kg net weight, and 234 kg gross for handling, the module is a structural item that needs a proper deck foundation and fixing, not a piece of loose equipment.

Wetted parts in stainless steel 1.4404 (AISI 316L) are central to this module’s marine role. Galley water and food acids in combination with salt-laden air are demanding on metal surfaces; 1.4404 improves resistance in the pan and internal wetted zones, the areas most exposed to hot liquids and cleaning chemicals. Radiused internal corners support cleaning routines, reducing soil traps and helping the team work to hygiene plans built around fast visual inspection and rinse-down.

The 14.7 kW FlexPower rating is the figure the electrical engineer will plan around, and it is also the number that determines how quickly a cold fill can be brought up to cooking temperature and how well the pan recovers after loading. For a 121 litre vessel, that balance between capacity and power output makes it suitable for boiling and general production cooking without oversizing the electrical supply. IP-rated water protection is specified for the whole module, which matters in a galley where high-pressure spray cleaning and occasional splashing are normal operating conditions rather than exceptions.

The hinged lid is more than a convenience feature in this context. Hinged construction keeps the lid with the module, avoiding loose parts during sea states, and supports condensation control over the full 121 litre surface when closed. In use, the lid can be opened fully for loading and unloading, and then brought down to reduce steam in the galley or held partially open to manage boil-over risk.

Build and control

• Stainless steel 1.4404 (AISI 316L) wetted parts
• Radiused internal corners for hygienic cleaning
• Hinged lid
• IP-rated water protection

This 121 litre, 14.7 kW module is a good fit where a galley needs a single, medium-sized pan with marine-appropriate materials, and where the electrical infrastructure is already built around a 380–415 V, 3 N-PE AC/50 Hz supply. It is not the right choice if the vessel requires multiple smaller pans for segregated production, or if the electrical system cannot comfortably support a 14.7 kW cooking load on one circuit.
