MKN Electric Griddle Plate 1321130A – Smooth, HotLine

A 705 x 545 mm smooth plate driven by a single work zone is the defining feature of the MKN 1321130A HotLine electric griddle. Within an 800 x 700 x 700 mm chassis it concentrates 10.8 kW of electrical power into one continuous contact-cooking surface.

On a vessel, that balance of footprint, power and plate area is what ties a griddle into the main galley line. This module is specified for a 400 V supply at 10.8 kW, so the load is significant enough to be planned at the section board without overwhelming a typical cooking group. The 800 x 700 mm body follows a common block geometry, which lets the designer align it with adjacent HotLine or similar modules while keeping coamings, foundations and hood sizing aligned to a simple rectangle.

The single work zone means the complete 705 x 545 mm plate runs at one temperature setpoint under thermostatic temperature control. That suits a production pattern built around batches of the same product and finish — for example, a full surface of breakfast items, then a reset for a lunch run — rather than many small areas at different temperatures. With a net weight of 102 kg and a gross weight of 113 kg, the unit has enough mass for stable mounting when fixed to a marine counter system or plinth, and it is not so heavy that handling into position becomes impractical during fit-out or refit.

Stainless steel 1.4301 (AISI 304) throughout gives consistent material behaviour across the working surface and outer housing. In a galley where heat, steam and frequent wash-down are routine, that uniform 1.4301 construction simplifies cleaning regimes and later fabrication work such as adding filler pieces or small brackets in the same grade. The published 800 x 700 x 700 mm dimensions, along with the 705 x 545 mm working surface, also give the HVAC designer clear reference edges when positioning the extraction canopy, side panels and any splash protection above and around the plate.

Build and control

• Stainless steel 1.4301 (AISI 304) throughout
• Self-supporting closed construction
• Ergonomic knob control
• Prepared for connection to an energy optimisation system
• Thermostatic temperature control

This griddle is a good fit where the galley layout calls for a straightforward, single-zone smooth plate and the electrical infrastructure is already set up for a 400 V, 10.8 kW cooking appliance in an 800 x 700 mm module. It is the wrong choice where the cooking brief demands several independently controlled heat zones on one plate, or where a grooved surface is needed for marked presentation, because this model offers neither multiple work zones nor a ribbed plate option.
