Olympic Kiln - 2818HE
Stackable electric models are built with Olympic’s proven electrical box design which has heat shields with top and bottom perforations to keep the electrical components cool, and balanced heating elements insure even heating of the firing chamber under all firing conditions.
These models come equipped with pilot light, metal stand, stainless steel jacket, and Bartlett 3K-CF electronic controller. Data is entered by scrolling through the up and down buttons for the desired cone fire or ramp/hold programming. Two Year Limited Kiln Warranty for cone 8 models, One-year Limited Kiln Warranty for cone 10 models.
Options include upgrading to the Genesis touchscreen controller or the 12 key digital Bartlett V6-CF controller for more ramp-hold user programs and multiple features including delay start, preheat, cone offset, skip step and many more for precise firings every time. Messages and Information are available for reviewing a firing profile before or during the firing, viewing the current segment the firing is in, and cone table for easy look up of temperature and cone number equivalents. Additional options include Type S thermocouple, 480 volt, 2 or 3 zone control, vent, and much more!
Solid State Relay
A Solid State Relay is hands down the best investment you can make in your kiln!
The relay is what controls the power cycling of the elements in the kiln and they need to be able to withstand a ton of power as they do so. The solid state relays are incredibly efficient compared to the standard mechanical relays and are able to operate at much faster speeds. What this equates to is incredibly tight temperature control for accurate firings, longer element life, and savings on your electrical bill!
The standard mechanical relays have moving parts which cause wear and tear over the years and will eventuall
