MKN Tilting Multifunctional Bratt Pan 2021402C – Electric, Optima 850

62 litres of pan capacity on a 700 x 540 mm working surface defines the 2021402C as a compact, single-zone bratt pan within the Optima 850 line. With installed electric power of 11 kW and one work zone, it suits galleys that need one controlled cooking surface rather than a bank of separate pans.

At 800 x 850 x 700 mm, this unit occupies one standard Optima 850 module length and depth, so it plans cleanly into an existing 850 mm-deep cooking block. The 700 mm body height helps keep the working edge accessible even when the double-walled hinged lid is open, which matters in a moving galley where reach and control are safety issues as much as ergonomics. Net weight is 158 kg, with a quoted gross weight of 167 kg for logistics and deck loading calculations.

Supply is 400 V electric with 11 kW electrical power, so the load on the ship’s distribution board is known and bounded at specification time. That level of demand is manageable for many vessel switchboards, while still giving enough heat density across the 700 x 540 mm surface to handle searing, shallow frying or bulk cooking in the 62-litre pan. A single work zone simplifies wiring, control and operator training compared with multi-zone equipment.

The pan depth of 200 mm gives usable volume without pushing the operator into a deep reach, and the tilting design allows cooked product or liquids to be discharged from the working surface without lifting heavy vessels. In a confined galley where pots and containers are already in short supply, the 62-litre capacity allows batches to be handled directly in the pan.

Cabinet construction in stainless steel 1.4301 (AISI 304) throughout provides a consistent material for cleaning and maintenance. The self-supporting closed construction means the unit is structurally complete as delivered, which simplifies integration into a block or island line. Net and gross weights of 158 kg and 167 kg respectively should be used in foundation and coaming design, particularly where the bratt pan forms part of a larger Optima 850 suite.

Build and control

• Stainless steel 1.4301 (AISI 304) throughout
• Self-supporting closed construction
• Ergonomic knob control
• Double-walled hinged lid with swivel joint and condensate drip strip
• Thermostatic temperature control

This bratt pan is a good fit where one 62-litre multifunctional surface can cover production needs on its own or as part of a small Optima 850 block. It is less suitable where very high volumes or multiple simultaneous cooking regimes are required, in which case a larger or multi-zone installation in the same series should be considered.
