Glass firing oval kilns are designed for large workloads and unusual shapes that do not fit in cylindrical or square kilns, and are used for fusing, forming glass shapes, and heat-treating.
Element Design and Heat Control
240-208-volt glass fusing models are equipped with a lid element for the fusing segment of the glass firing and body elements for the ramping up-down and annealing segments of the firing. 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 set to the High position, all elements, both the body and the lid, heat at the same intensity. The kiln operator may choose to lessen the intensity of the lid element by turning the switch down.
Standard Equipment, Controller, and Warranty
Models come equipped with a pilot light, an 18″ tall metal stand or frame, a stainless steel jacket, lid lift assist, peephole plugs, and an instruction manual. The 209GFE is equipped with a Bartlett KilnStar digital controller.
Two-year Limited Kiln Warranty.
Upgrade Options
Consider upgrading to the Genesis controller with touchscreen technology, a bead door, a quartz glass viewing window, a lid element in quartz rods, a Type S thermocouple, a vent, and much more!
