KilnTroller II
ELECTRONIC TEMPERATURE CONTROLLER
for Ceramic Kilns
GENERAL INFORMATION
The
KilnTroller II
is a precision electronic temperature controller for ceramic
kilns.
The controller measures the kiln’s temperature, and regulates the heating process by
switching its heaters on and off. The controller’s main instruction is the temperature
“LIMIT” setting, which is adjusted as desired by the user. When operated in the
“SOAK” mode, the controller will maintain the kiln’s temperature at the LIMIT
setting indefinitely. When operated in the “SHUT-OFF” mode, the controller will
permit the temperature to increase to the LIMIT, then shut off the kiln. A bright
four-digit indicator shows the measured temperature, and the limit setting. An array
of indicator lights continuously displays the status of the system, and a bi-
directional fail-safe feature protects against thermocouple burn-out or reversal.
The controller uses a “Type K” (nickel-chromium vs. nickel-aluminum)
thermocouple as its temperature sensor. FireRight interface panels and
power controllers isolate the
KilnTroller II
from high voltages and
currents. These will accommodate either 120vac or 240vac 50/60Hz power
sources. Interface panels will handle kilns drawing up to 15-amps, and can
be connected to operate power contactors of any size. Standard power
controllers are available for single phase loads of 48-amps or less, and for
single or three-phase kilns drawing as much as 75-amps. All connections to
the controller use keyed telephone-type plug-in cables.
