MKN Electric Griddle Plate 8EGRP060DMGS

9.6 kW of MaxPower defines how the 8EGRP060DMGS behaves on the line: this is a griddle plate specified for continuous cooking duty, not just occasional finishing. The load is split across 2 heating zones, so one side can run at production temperature while the other is set for holding or kept idle to trim power draw.

The electrical specification is 380–415 V, 3 N-PE AC/50 Hz with fuse protection at 3×16 A. That combination sits cleanly on a standard three-phase group, but it still has to be coordinated with the ship’s switchboard sections so that diversity factors and breaker settings are realistic when the griddle is on alongside other 380–415 V appliances. The 3×16 A figure is also a concrete input for cable sizing, disconnect selection and any load-shedding logic written into the galley distribution.

For day-to-day operation aboard, the 2 zones make this plate more manageable than a single fixed surface at 9.6 kW. One zone can cover short-order items through quieter periods, with the second zone brought up only when order volume demands it, which stops this circuit from becoming a constant full-load passenger on the generator. On a vessel where HVAC capacity is tight, being able to park half the plate without losing the position altogether is often the deciding factor.

The published IPX6 rating is central to how the unit is cleaned and sited. Marine galleys are commonly washed down with hoses, and an appliance that has been tested against water jets can remain connected during wash routines instead of being wrapped or shielded. The “IP-rated water protection” feature confirms the construction has been designed to that ingress-protection level, which reduces the risk of nuisance trips and moisture-related faults after cleaning cycles.

Build and control

• IPX6 IP-rated water protection for jet-wash cleaning
• 2 heating zones for separate temperature settings
• Electrical supply 380–415 V, 3 N-PE AC/50 Hz for three-phase integration
• MaxPower 9.6 kW for high-output griddling on a compact module
• Fuse protection 3×16 A for straightforward circuit allocation

This model is a strong fit where a galley can offer a three-phase 380–415 V, 3 N-PE AC/50 Hz supply with 3×16 A available and needs a fixed griddle that stands up to regular hose-down cleaning. It is the wrong choice for very small pantries or refurbishments limited to single-phase circuits, and also for menus where a dedicated 9.6 kW griddle position would spend most of its life underused. In those cases a lower-load or different-format cooking surface is likely to integrate more cleanly with the electrical and space plan. Ordered under MKN article number 8EGRP060DMGS.
