MKN FlexiChef Team Multifunctional Appliance FCEKMP22XX-2XX – FlexiChef, 100 + 100 litres

2600 x 850 x 750 mm across the chassis, two 100 litre pans and a net weight of 640 kg set the scale of the MKN FlexiChef Team FCEKMP22XX-2XX. Each side offers a 723 x 543 x 315 mm working surface, so this is two full-size pans on one frame rather than a main and a smaller auxiliary.

On a shipboard galley where every appliance competes for 400 V supply and floor area, combining two 100 litre pans into a single 2600 mm length can simplify the line-up. Instead of specifying and mounting two separate bodies, the designer runs one base, one set of flanged connections and one service zone while still giving the galley two independent work zones. The 850 mm width aligns with common cooking blocks, which helps keep clear passage space along a bulkhead or island.

Electrically, the unit is arranged as two complete pans sharing one chassis. Each pan is served by 34.0 kW of electrical power, drawing from a 400 V supply, so the total connected load is equivalent to running two individual high-capacity appliances. That figure belongs in the early electrical design: distribution boards, cabling routes and load shedding strategies on a vessel need to assume both work zones can be running at full demand through a peak service.

The 100 + 100 litre capacity, matched to 723 x 543 x 315 mm per pan, gives a deep working volume for boiling, shallow frying or braising without forcing an excessive reach over the rim. In practice, one side can be dedicated to bulk production while the second handles a different menu stream, finishing or smaller batch work. Because both pans share the same 2600 x 850 mm footprint, a single operator can move between them without crossing the aisle or stepping out of the cooking line, which matters in a tight galley with multiple crew working in parallel.

Net weight at 640 kg means the foundation and deck interface cannot be treated as an afterthought. The load is concentrated into the area under an 850 mm wide body, so the yard’s structural calculation and the choice between a welded plinth or deck-mounted feet should be settled with this mass in mind. Clearance to bulkheads and deckhead also needs checking against the 750 mm body height and any local coaming or upstands.

Build and control

• Hinged lid
• Fully welded seams
• Drain valve
• Stainless steel 1.4404 (AISI 316L) wetted parts

The hinged lid allows the pans to be closed during long boils or low-temperature work, containing steam and condensate close to the cooking surface rather than letting it disperse into the galley. Fully welded seams across the housing support wash-down cleaning without water tracking into joints. All wetted parts in stainless steel 1.4404 (AISI 316L) are well suited to repeated exposure to hot water and detergents, while the integral drain valve on each pan gives controlled emptying to a fixed deck gully or drain.

This configuration is the right choice where the cooking profile genuinely uses two 100 litre pans through service and the electrical infrastructure can support 34.0 + 34.0 kW at 400 V. It is the wrong choice for a small crew galley that rarely fills a single 100 litre body or for projects where the available electrical capacity cannot comfortably carry the combined load of both work zones.
