Amaco's Select Fire™ Controller is included, and an EZ-Lift™ lid can be ordered with the kiln, or added on later as an option. External dimensions are Three Phase Kilns — Three Phase electric power is available in many industrial and institutional buildings, usually with 208V power. Most facilities with Three Phase power also have separate circuits for Single Phase power. Single Phase electric power is the standard alternating current (60 hz) that is available in all homes and offices in North America, usually with 240V power. A single phase kiln can run using Three Phase power with additional equipment and wiring. Where Three Phase power is available, most high amperage circuits (that might be used to run a kiln) will be Three Phase circuits. Although electric motors such as ventilation fans run more efficiently (require fewer watts) on a Three Phase circuit, kiln heating elements do not. However, it is possible to run a Three Phase kiln using a smaller (lower amperage) circuit than would be required for a comparable Single Phase kiln, if power capacity (amperage) is an issue. Three Phase kilns will not run on Single Phase power. Always consult a licensed electrician before installing a high power electric kiln. |
Select Fire™, the most advanced kiln control system ever, is now available built-in with Amaco's Excel Kilns. Whether you are an advanced artist, production potter, or hobbyist, the Select Fire system means more precise control, greater consistency, and less time spent monitoring firings. Set the kiln to fire by temperature or by cone number (it automatically converts one to the other) at one of three pre-set firing programs — slow, medium, or fast. Use ramp/hold programming to create your own firing profile by selecting up to six segments of temperature change, and hold and store it for your next firing. A digital readout displays Fahrenheit, centigrade and program currently in use. Automatic delay firing will start up to 99 hours, 99 minutes later. Thermocouple, |
