MKN Induction Cooking Table 2123111 – Optima 700

A 400 x 400 mm working surface on a 500 x 700 x 700 mm body defines the footprint of the MKN 2123111 induction cooking table. With one work zone and 10 kW of electrical power, the full connected load is concentrated into a single pan position.

At 700 mm height and 45 kg net weight, this Optima 700 module is compact enough to drop into a tight galley line while keeping access to the hob at a workable level in seaway. The 400 V supply aligns with typical three-phase distributions used on commercial and marine switchboards, so the electrical interface is straightforward for a designer laying out a cooking block and panel board in parallel.

The 6 mm glass-ceramic top is flush with the worktop and sized exactly to the 400 x 400 mm working surface. That leaves a clear, level bearing area for one larger vessel or a smaller pan without steps at the module transition. Radiused plate corners and graphically marked heating zones help the crew place pans consistently and reduce dirt traps, which matters where galley washing regimes rely on rapid wipe-downs between deeper clean-downs.

The overall 500 x 700 mm plan dimension means this module occupies a narrow front in the working aisle, matching the Optima 700 corpus depth so it integrates without infill pieces. For naval architects and outfitters, the quoted net and gross weights of 45 kg and 50 kg give a clear figure for point-load checks on the foundation or plinth. The single-zone configuration simplifies planning where the requirement is a dedicated induction position for a specific process rather than a general-purpose multi-pan range.

Electrical power is specified at 10 kW on 400 V, so the connected load for cable sizing, breakers and diversity calculations is unambiguous. Heating is from induction generators with electronic pan detection from a 12 cm base diameter, so the zone only energises when a suitable pan is present. PT 1000 overheating protection supervises the temperature of the system, adding a defined layer of safety on a surface that is otherwise flat and closed.

Build and control

• Complies with DIN 18851 for commercial kitchens
• Stainless steel 1.4301 (AISI 304) throughout
• Self-supporting closed construction
• 6 mm glass-ceramic top, flush with the worktop
• Radiused plate corners for easy cleaning; heating zones graphically marked
• Ergonomic knob control
• Heated by high-output induction generators
• High efficiency, low energy consumption
• Electronic pan detection from 12 cm base diameter
• PT 1000 overheating protection

This unit suits a line that needs a single, clearly defined induction position in a 500 mm-wide body, for example as a finishing or à la carte station alongside other heat sources. It is the wrong choice where production requires several pans on one appliance footprint, because a larger body with multiple zones will use deck area and electrical infrastructure more effectively.
