MKN FlexiChef Team Multifunctional Appliance FCEKMP23XX-1XX – FlexiChef, 150 + 50 litres

150 + 50 litres of pan capacity on one frame is what defines the MKN FlexiChef Team FCEKMP23XX-1XX. The larger section gives 150 litres, the smaller 50 litres, so one appliance covers bulk production and small batches without changing station.

On a shipboard galley plan, a 2700 x 850 x 750 mm body occupies the length and depth of a full cooking block. That footprint has to be justified against deck area, and the Team configuration does it by building two work zones into that length rather than spreading several single-function pans along the line. Net weight is quoted at 705 kg, which makes this a fixed installation tied into the galley foundation, not something that can be repositioned once the vessel is in service.

Working surface dimensions spell out what fits in each pan. One side is 1023 x 543 x 315 mm, the other 523 x 543 x 225 mm, both rectangular with the same width so baskets and tools can be standardised. Capacity is specified as 150 + 50, and there are 2 work zones, so production can be split between a high-volume pan and a smaller one running a different process on the same shift. For a menu that alternates between large boils and shorter, smaller runs, this flexibility is a planning number, not a marketing line.

Electrical connection is listed as 400 V with electrical power 14,7 + 34,0. That connected load is a design input for the switchboard and cabling, particularly in a marine plant where spare electrical capacity is limited and diversity factors are scrutinised. Concentrating 14,7 + 34,0 kW into one chassis also consolidates maintenance access and service clearances into a single service zone instead of several along the bulkhead.

Stainless steel 1.4404 (AISI 316L) on all wetted parts is a material choice aimed at high-chloride and heavy-cleaning environments. In a galley where salt, starch and cleaning chemicals meet hot surfaces daily, 1.4404 gives a higher margin against pitting and crevice attack than general-purpose stainless. Fully welded seams back this up by reducing joints and overlaps where product and cleaning water could stand.

The hinged lid gives a defined opening movement and helps contain steam and heat from both pans, which matters under a fixed extraction canopy. A dedicated drain valve allows liquid dishes to be emptied in a controlled way without relying on pan movement, important where floor space and swing clearance are tight. With 2 work zones and a combined electrical power figure of 14,7 + 34,0, this Team model fits a galley that runs simultaneous high-output processes for much of the day.

It is not the right choice for a small crew galley that seldom needs more than one pan at a time; in that case a single-pan FlexiChef with lower capacity and connected load would free both deck length and electrical allowance. Where the requirement is to bring 150 and 50 litres of multifunctional pan capacity into one 2700 x 850 x 750 mm footprint, the MKN FlexiChef Team FCEKMP23XX-1XX is the relevant configuration.
