MKN Grill Unit 7EIGR080XWZ – Electric, Optima 700

10.5 kW on an Optima 700 body defines the MKN 7EIGR080XWZ as a serious grill module in a compact footprint. At a net weight of 67 kg, it is light enough to integrate easily into a modular line while still giving a stable base for continuous use.

For a shipboard galley, the electrical specification matters as much as the cooking surface. The unit is designed for a 380–415 V supply, which aligns with typical three-phase marine distributions and simplifies integration into existing switchboards. Because it is an electric grill, there are no combustion gases to route or flues to plan, which helps in tightly enclosed galleys where ventilation and duct space are already under pressure. The IP-rated water protection also means routine wash-down with spray systems can be planned into hygiene procedures without treating this module as a dry-only island.

The 10.5 kW electrical power is the figure to feed into both load calculations and cooking-capacity planning. That input is concentrated under a hinged lid, which helps keep heat over the product rather than spilling into the room. The combination of hinged lid and electric elements gives the chef good temperature stability for grilling work while helping the HVAC designer, because less of the 8400 W of sensible heat emission ends up as uncontrolled load in the galley. Latent heat emission is quoted at 1838 W, a number that belongs in the ventilation schedule: it indicates how much moisture load this single module adds when running.

On installation, gross weight of 76 kg is the number to use for handling, transport and deck-structural checks. That mass, combined with fully welded seams, results in a rigid body that can be aligned cleanly with adjacent Optima 700 modules. Fully welded seams are more than a cosmetic detail in a marine context: they reduce the number of joints where water and food residues can collect, simplifying compliance with hygiene regimes that rely on thorough daily wash-down.

Build and control

• Hinged lid
• Fully welded seams
• IP-rated water protection

This grill unit is a good fit where a vessel needs electric grilling capacity within an Optima 700 depth line and has electrical headroom for a 10.5 kW appliance on a 380–415 V supply. It is less suitable for very small galleys with limited electrical allocation per line, or where the concept relies primarily on gas-fired equipment. Ordered under MKN product number 7EIGR080XWZ.
