Introducing the Olympic Kiln Square 189GFE, a versatile top-loading kiln designed specifically for glass firing applications such as fusing and forming glass shapes, as well as heat-treating. Our 240-208-volt glass fusing models feature a lid element dedicated to the fusing segment of the firing process, while body elements handle the ramping up-down and annealing phases. An infinite switch grants control over the intensity of the heat emitted from the lid element, providing flexibility in heating options.An infinite switch controls the intensity of the heat coming from the lid element. If the switch remains in the OFF position, only the body elements will heat the kiln. If the infinite switch is turned to the High position, all elements, both body and lid, heat at the same intensity. The kiln operator may choose to lessen the intensity of the lid element by turning the switch down.
Equipped with essential features including a pilot light, an 18” tall metal stand or frame, a stainless steel jacket, and a Bartlett Instruments 3 Key electronic controller, our kilns ensure ease of operation and precise temperature control. Controller settings are effortlessly inputted by scrolling through the up and down arrows for desired temperature in ramp-hold programming. This kiln comes with a two year warranty.
For enhanced functionality, consider upgrading to the Genesis touchscreen controller or the 12-key digital KilnStar controller. These upgrades offer an array of ramp-hold user programs and additional features such as delay start, preheat, skip step, and more, ensuring consistently precise firings. Access messages and information for comprehensive monitoring of firing profiles and segments, optimizing your glass firing processes.
Tailor your kiln further with optional features including lid lift assist for effortless lid operation, bead door, quartz glass viewing window, Type S thermocouple, vent, and more, catering to your specific needs and preferences.
