MKN Induction Cooking Table 7EHE1051XWP8 – Wok, Electric

Eight kilowatts of connected load on an induction wok table gives the MKN 7EHE1051XWP8 the electrical headroom for demanding high-temperature stir-fry work. The unit is specified for a 380–415 V supply, so it can be matched directly to a ship’s three-phase distribution in that band without special adaptation.

On board, the published heat rejection figures are as important as the power rating. This induction cooking table emits 560 W of sensible heat and 224 W of latent heat into the galley. Those numbers go straight into the HVAC and extraction calculation when the yard or designer is checking whether an enclosed cooking area and its air-conditioning plant can absorb another high-energy station. Knowing the fixed 560 W / 224 W split in advance also helps to position the wok under the appropriate hood section rather than guessing at its impact after installation.

The 8 kW rating defines both the cooking capacity and the electrical budget for the line the wok sits on. In a main galley where a dedicated station will see frequent, intensive use, that figure is high enough to justify its own circuit while still leaving room on a 380–415 V sub-distribution for other appliances. Where electrical capacity is constrained, the same 8 kW number becomes the key check against the remaining allowance on the board, because it is a constant draw when the wok is in service.

Compliance with DIN 18851 ties the 7EHE1051XWP8 to a recognised commercial-kitchen construction standard, which is often a requirement in shipyard specifications and technical descriptions. The hinged lid is a functional element in a marine galley: between cooking runs it can be closed to contain splashes and vapour around the wok area, helping to limit the spread of the moisture represented in the 224 W latent figure and reducing soil on nearby equipment. The declared IP-rated water protection supports the wash-down regimes common at sea, where cleaning is done with hoses and spray rather than light wiping, and components must tolerate regular exposure to water.

Build and control

• Complies with DIN 18851 for commercial kitchens
• Hinged lid to cover the wok area between or during cooking runs
• IP-rated water protection suitable for wet cleaning routines

This induction wok table is a sound choice where a vessel has a defined wok section in the hot galley and enough spare capacity on a 380–415 V board to allocate an 8 kW appliance, and where the HVAC design can easily absorb 560 W of sensible and 224 W of latent heat from this position. It is the wrong choice for very small galleys that have no need for a permanent wok station, or where the remaining electrical allowance cannot support an 8 kW load without displacing other essential cooking equipment.
