Evenheat Ceramic Kiln – High Fire 1413

The High Fire personal size kilns are designed to reach the outer limits of ceramic firing by reaching cone 10!

High Fire models are constructed of 3″ firebrick that offers more insulation and ability to reach high temperature faster and easier. If your plans include firing up to cone 10 then the High Fire Series is made just for you.

Our personal size models fit well into any small studio and are even used by larger studios for testing and one-off work.

All High Fire models are equipped with our Swing View control enclosure for “stand-up” programming as well as multiple control choices including the TAP and Genesis touchscreens. Order yours with our solid state relays and never replace a relay again.

The HF 1413 is designed specifically for the home porcelain and china artist. The size is just perfect.

Quiet Drive Solid State Relay

Evenheat’s patented Quiet Drive Solid State Relay is hands down the best investment you can make in your kiln!

With no moving parts, this relay is able to be triggered up to 60 times a second as opposed to the upper limit of 10 times a second on the default mechanical relay. This means incredibly tight temperature control ensuring each and every one of your firings is as accurate as possible.

The Quiet Drive uses a special method call “Zero Crossing” that will ensure that the heating elements are off when the voltage is at 0V – Giving your heating elements a break so that they will last longer, and you’ll save energy!

The best part though? Since there are no moving parts – the Quiet Drive Solid State relay should never need replacing! You will save money and time by never needing to worry about this in the future!

Controller Selection

Evenheat has close relationships with the manufacturers of a variety of digital controllers. This means you will have nothing but the best the best in terms of performance and accuracy in your firings.

With a selection of multiple controllers available – you can choose exactly what fits your needs.

TAP Touchscreen Smart Controller by SDS Industries

The top of the line. The bread and butter. The cream of the crop. The controller for those who want to make their lives easier, improve their craft, and make incredible quality products.

This is our top selling controller – And for good reason!

The TAP Smart Controller is without a doubt the best choice on the market right now – It’s easy to use, has stellar performance, and is packed full with features!

It has more memory than any other controller, allowing you to more easily utilize, revise, and save many different kinds of firing programs.

Storage for firing programs is virtually unlimited! Create as many profiles, with as many steps as you’d like – you won’t be limited by this controller.

Our favorite part though: When ordered with the Wi-Fi Dongle, you can control everything from any device! Prefer to work on your computer or tablet – how about your phone?

 

 

With an internet connection to your TAP Smart Controller, updates from SDS Industries can be applied to your controller automatically – ensuring you always have the most up-to-date software for years to come!

Easily adjust the in-progress firing, skip steps, and view all graphical information on your firing with just a “TAP”!

The amount of time you save by working with the TAP Smart Controller pays for itself for years to come – you’ll be so happy with this investment that you won’t know how you managed so long without it.

The TAP Smart Controller supports the Loud Alarm option.

Genesis by Barlett Instruments

The Genesis is a touch screen option which has extended functionality over traditional button controllers!

The Genesis has the ability to store up to 12 different programs – with up to 32 segments per program each! You’ll have no trouble adding segments, skipping, or adding temperature along the way.

This is a great choice for a controller if you want the features of a smart controller, but want the ease of straightforward programming and use.

Rampmaster

The Rampmaster provides additional versatility over the Set-Pro controller.

With a numerical keypad, it allows the operators to create up to 12 firing programs, each including up to 8 segments.

Need to make adjustments as you go? On-the-fly adjustments and other menu functions are available to provide additional control and create your ideal firing profile.

The Rampmaster also supports the Loud Alarm option.

Set-Pro

The Set-Pro is our basic, no frills controller. It gets the job done, but does not offer nearly as much flexibility as the others.

It offers the option to create 8 firing programs, with 8 segments each.

This is a good choice if you’re only planning to occasionally use your oven and do not want room to expand in the future.

Orton Vent Master Downdraft Vent System

With all ceramic and glass kilns, we highly recommend that they be vented to the outside. But why?

First and foremost – is your safety! When heating various materials in your kiln, many have byproducts that burn off and are released into the air. These byproducts are toxic and you don’t want that mixing with the air you’re breathing.

The Orton Vent Master has a patented process called “Downdraft Venting”. By manufacturing the kiln with a hole in the bottom, we’re able to attach the vent here and pull the fumes out and vent them outside through a duct or window.

This process helps improve the air flow and produce more uniform temperatures throughout the chamber, ensuring that each of your pieces is accurately being heated. The additional oxygen will ensure your colors develop to their truest nature.

In addition, with downdraft venting – you’ll extend the life of the elements and other metals within our kiln, ensuring your kiln lasts longer and you have reduced repair costs down the road. We often hear from customers that they are confident that by utilizing their venting system their kiln will last much longer than it would have otherwise and that the investment has more than paid for itself.

Furniture Kit

Furniture Kits are necessary accessories for any kiln owner as firing directly on the kiln floor is not only bad for the kiln, but your pieces as well. In addition to this, they’re also useful! A furniture kit will allow you to stack multiple shelves on top of one another in order to maximize the useable space when firing smaller pieces.

If you have one that will fit this kiln size already, then you’re in luck! But if not, you’ll want to ensure you add this to your order as well.

Furniture Kit includes:

• One (1) 12″ Half Shelf
• One (1) 12″ Full Shelf
• Four (4) each of 1″, 2″, 3″, 4″, 5″ and 6″ Posts. All posts 1″ square.
• One (1) Haik Brush
• One (1) 1lb. Kiln Wash

 

Kiln furniture can be special ordered separately, but if done so the cost is ~10-20% higher and will incur a separate shipping charge. It’s best to include this on your initial order of the kiln.

* Received shelves may contain surface imperfections such as scratches, discoloration or rough edge. These possible imperfections are understood and accepted by the buyer.

Stand with caster wheels

The standard order of this kiln comes with a stationary stand built to handle the weight, heat, and shape of the kiln. While this works perfectly fine, attempting to move your kiln can be a difficult maneuver and could result in a damaged stand, or worse – a broken kiln!

Ordering a stand with caster wheels ensures the whole process of moving your kiln for any reason is a smooth and simple process.

No longer worry about if you’re running out of room within your garage – you can tuck your kiln away in a corner when it’s not in use! And of course – if you’re one for moving the kiln around the studio or other rooms, this is essentially a necessity.

When ordered with a vent system – make sure to detach first before moving the kiln.

Depending on the model, the stand will vary in height. Its primary use is for mobility.

Power Interrupt Switch / Automatic Lid Shutoff

The power interrupt switch is a useful safety feature which removes power from the heating elements of your kiln once it is opened, and reapplies the power once the lid has been closed.

If you believe you’d ever like to open the kiln during firing, the power interrupt switch is a highly recommended addition to your new purchase.
