MKN FlexiChef Team Multifunctional Appliance FCEKMP23XX-2XX – FlexiChef, 100 + 75 litres

Two cooking zones in one body and a combined 100 + 75 litres of pan capacity set the character of the FCEKMP23XX-2XX FlexiChef Team. At 2900 mm in length with a carcass width of 850 mm, it is a line appliance that anchors the hot kitchen rather than a stand-alone skillet.

That footprint matters on a ship, where every cooking position has to justify its length on the galley line and its load on the deck. A single unit at 705 kg avoids splitting power and drainage across multiple appliances, which simplifies the interface to the ship’s services. One connection for 400 V and one drainage point through the drain valve are easier to accommodate in a crowded technical space than several separate pans.

The two work zones are not identical. One pan offers 100 litres of capacity with a working surface of 1023 x 543 x 225 mm, the other 75 litres at 723 x 543 x 225 mm. That split lets a galley brigade reserve the larger pan for high-volume items and the smaller one for side dishes or shorter runs without dedicating two separate appliances. Both zones sit under a single hinged lid, which keeps steam and heat inside the pan and off the room when closed. For a naval architect, the shared lid and common body simplify hood and ceiling design, because the steam plume is concentrated above a single position instead of two.

Wetted parts in stainless steel 1.4404 (AISI 316L) are a material choice with a clear marine logic. This grade is specified for the areas in permanent contact with water and food, where chloride exposure and cleaning cycles are hardest on surfaces. Welded seams throughout the body give the FlexiChef Team a closed surface without open junctions, which is easier to keep clean in a heavy-use galley. The 2900 x 850 x 750 mm dimensions put it in line with modular suite systems, so it can be planned into existing cooklines without special transitions.

Electrical connection is straightforward: the unit is specified for 400 V with two quoted power ratings, 22,4 and 34,0. This reflects the separate demands of each work zone and allows the installed load to be planned into the galley distribution board accurately. In practice, that means the electrical engineer can assign supply and protection based on published figures rather than estimates, which is important where the cooking line competes with other hotel loads.

This FlexiChef Team configuration is a good choice where the galley needs two independently operated pans with 100 and 75 litres of capacity in a single, continuous body. It is less suitable for very small galleys that cannot allocate 2900 mm of uninterrupted linear space or that only need a single multifunctional pan. Ordered under MKN product number FCEKMP23XX-2XX.
