MKN FlexiChef Team Multifunctional Appliance FCEKMP22XX-2XX – FlexiChef, 75 + 75 litres

Two 75 litre pans in one chassis give the FlexiChef Team FCEKMP22XX-2XX a total 75 + 75 capacity on a 2600 mm length. Each work zone has the same 723 x 543 x 225 mm working surface, so a galley can mirror production from one side to the other without changing utensils or batch sizes.

On a ship where deck area is costed line by line, fitting two work zones into one 2600 x 850 x 750 mm envelope is a planning lever. Services, flanged feet and foundations concentrate under a single body rather than being scattered along the line, while the crew still gain the operational advantage of two independent pans. For newbuilds, that simplifies the drawing set for structure and systems; for refits, it can be the difference between fitting into an existing bay and having to cut steel.

The electrical specification of 400 V with 22,4 + 22,4 kW connected load places this appliance in the main galley production category. The switchboard, cabling and protection design have to reserve that electrical power, and the load profile will be visible in the vessel’s power-management calculations when both pans are driven hard. A net weight of 640 kg means the structural team must treat the FlexiChef Team as a permanent, high point load tied into the deck or a stainless plinth.

Working surface and depth drive how the pans are used in practice. At 723 x 543 x 225 mm per side, each zone can take the same baskets, trays or inserts, simplifying mise en place and service. Identical geometry across the two work zones also allows one pan to run core production while the other handles separate work such as sauces or side dishes, without any compromise on usable area.

Wetted parts in stainless steel 1.4404 (AISI 316L) focus corrosion resistance where it matters: surfaces in contact with food and cleaning chemicals. In a marine galley with frequent hot cleaning and salt-laden air, that material choice reduces the risk of pitting in the pan and drain area. Fully welded seams support hygiene and durability by removing open joints that are harder to clean and more prone to harbour residues.

This configuration suits vessels that want multifunctional production capacity in two streams but only have room or services for a single 2600 x 850 x 750 mm body. It is the wrong choice where the galley concept is based on a single, much larger vessel rather than two equal pans, or where the available 400 V electrical allocation cannot support 22,4 + 22,4 kW without reworking the switchboard. In a pantry or small mess, the footprint and 640 kg mass will often be excessive compared with a smaller unit from the same family.
