CONTAINERIZED KITCHEN (WITH TRAILER)
EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION AND DATA
Lighting
Nine dual-tube, fluorescent fixtures provide the CK's interior lighting. Six provide white light for
normal operations and three have red filters to provide blackout lighting. The normal and
blackout lights are located as shown in Figure 13. Four of the fixtures are permanently mounted
in the core of the kitchen. The rest are removable and are divided between the two wing
sections. The removable fixtures attach to the wing arch supports and are removed for packout.
The white light fixture nearest the personnel access door contains a rechargeable nickel-
cadmium battery and circuitry to provide emergency lighting. If power to the CK is lost, this
fixture will operate for at least 90 minutes, providing light for personnel to evacuate the kitchen.
It can also be used to provide lighting during kitchen setup, until electrical power is connected.
The battery automatically recharges when power is connected to the kitchen. A test switch on
the fixture allows for testing operation of the emergency light feature.

The lighting controls, described in detail in WP 0003 00, include switches for operating the lights
and for selecting the lighting mode (normal or blackout).
Exhaust System
The principal component of the CK's exhaust system is the exhaust hood mounted over the
length of the cook center, Figure 14. Heat, water vapor, and fumes rising from the cook center
equipment are exhausted by the hood. The hood also includes a makeup air supply to prevent
conditioned air in the kitchen from being drawn out by the hood, and an air curtain that contains
the heat from the cook center until it is drawn out by the exhaust fan.
