MKN Grill Unit 10018146 – Electric, HotLine

Three separate work zones across a 580 x 470 mm grilling surface give the MKN 10018146 a clear role where portions need to be handled in parallel. At 10.5 kW connected load, it is sized for continuous cooking rather than occasional finishing.

The 800 x 700 x 700 mm body fits the depth and width envelope commonly used in modular cooking lines, which simplifies planning in a galley where every millimetre of deck space has to be justified against service volume and traffic. With a dedicated 400 V supply, the unit is specified as a fixed installation point on the ship’s distribution, so its electrical demand can be factored cleanly into the galley load calculation. In enclosed marine galleys, that predictability on footprint and power draw helps the yard balance cooking capacity against extraction and electrical infrastructure.

On the cooking side, the 580 mm length and 470 mm width of the working surface give enough area to stage multiple pans or grill items across the three zones without overreaching from the service edge. The 10.5 kW electrical power is concentrated into that footprint, giving the operator the choice to run all three sections or hold one back for lower demand periods. In a line-up of HotLine modules, the 800 mm length allows this grill to sit cleanly between other 800 mm modules without awkward overhangs or dead corners that are hard to clean.

The overall height of 700 mm allows designers to integrate the unit into a counter or suite concept at a defined working level once any substructure or plinth is taken into account. Because the unit is fed at 400 V, it is aligned with three-phase galley distributions rather than small-appliance circuits, and that distinction affects breaker sizing, cable runs and panel space. On a refit where spare capacity is limited, knowing the exact 10.5 kW demand of this unit up front is often the difference between a straight swap and a more complex electrical upgrade.

Build and control

• Stainless steel 1.4301 (AISI 304) throughout
• Self-supporting closed construction
• Ergonomic knob control

This HotLine grill unit is a solid choice where a compact, 800 x 700 mm body with three independently managed work zones is needed on a 400 V line, for example as part of a front or main galley cookline. It is less suitable where only occasional, small-volume grilling is required, or where the electrical plan cannot comfortably accommodate a 10.5 kW appliance on the available supply.
