Specifying marine neutral units & bases

Widths from 100 to 1500 mm in two module families

thermaline 90 and 900XP neutral base units on this page span from 100 mm to 1500 mm wide, all in one brand and one equipment type. That lets a cooking block carry anything from a narrow infill through to a run-long base under several tops. thermaline 90 covers the full 100 to 1500 mm width range, while 900XP sits between 400 and 1200 mm, so the fine-grain layout work is mainly done with thermaline 90 modules.
On weight, these are light structural pieces rather than major deck loads: the whole range runs from 9.5 to 45 kg net, with thermaline 90 units topping out at 38 kg. That makes them easy to handle during installation and refit but still relevant when the naval architect is balancing a dense cooking island against the rest of the galley.

Choosing between thermaline 90 and 900XP bases

All 24 products here are neutral base units, so the practical choice is between thermaline 90 and 900XP geometry and how they match the tops in the Cooking Equipment family. For a thermaline 90 block the neutral bases follow the same series, with widths from 100 to 1500 mm. When the cooking line above is 900XP, the bases in that series concentrate on 400 to 1200 mm widths, matching the modular rhythm of the tops.
Most very narrow bases up to 400 mm wide sit in the thermaline 90 group, which matters when filling gaps between functional modules. The heaviest base on the page, at 45 kg net, is a 900XP unit.

Managing footprint and deck loading in marine galleys

From an outfitting point of view, the spread from 100 mm to 1500 mm widths lets a designer hold a cooking line inside a set galley bay without cutting or fabricating bespoke subframes. Short bases in the up to 400 mm bracket can pick up odd residual widths between major appliances, while units in the 601–800 mm and 801–1200 mm bands take the main run under the cooking tops from related categories.
Even the heaviest neutral bases here, at 45 kg net, are a modest contribution to deck loading compared with powered appliances above them. That helps when the vessel has tight limits on weight high in the ship or on cantilevered sections. On yachts and offshore units where service routes and stairwells are tight, being able to move a 10–20 kg base separately from the cooking top reduces handling risk during installation.

Specifying for marine, ship and yacht use

All 24 units are tagged for marine, ship, yacht, commercial vessel and offshore galley use, so the same neutral base palette can underpin galley lines across a fleet. Each base belongs to the same series as the tops it carries, which keeps the interface between the base and the cooking module a series question rather than a fabrication one.
Because these bases are neutral, they do not introduce extra electrical or hydraulic interfaces into the block: the supply work stays concentrated in the powered tops and in other families such as Ovens, Deep Fat Fryers or Bratt Pans. For the superintendent, that means the specification focus for these items is width, series and net weight.

When to look beyond Neutral Units & Bases

This category is the wrong place if the requirement is to add active cooking or heated holding capacity to a line. For surface cooking modules the relevant pages are Induction Cookers, Grills & Griddles or Deep Fat Fryers; for bulk liquid work the Boiling Kettles and Bratt Pans categories take over. If the design task is food preparation rather than supporting a cooking block, the Food Preparation Equipment or Bain-Maries categories will carry more suitable units than the neutral bases listed here.

Questions about marine neutral units & bases

How wide can a thermaline 90 marine neutral base be in a cooking block?

thermaline 90 neutral bases on this page range from 100 mm to 1500 mm wide. That allows both very narrow infill pieces and long bases under multiple tops within a single cooking island.

What net weight should be allowed for when planning deck support under these neutral bases?

Across all 24 neutral base units the net weight runs from 9.5 to 45 kg. thermaline 90 models stay between 9.5 and 38 kg, while 900XP bases reach the upper 45 kg figure.

Which widths are available if the galley is standardised on 900XP cooking equipment?

900XP neutral bases listed here cover widths from 400 to 1200 mm. The 100 mm to 400 mm infill widths on the page are thermaline 90 units.

Are these neutral bases suitable for offshore and yacht galleys as well as ships?

Every unit in this category is tagged for Marine, Ship, Yacht, Commercial Vessel and Offshore galley applications. Selection then comes down to required width between 100 and 1500 mm and the chosen series, thermaline 90 or 900XP.
