The Jen-Ken AF3P 11-E kiln can hold a 10" plate mold or an 8" square mold. The added depth can expand your contemporary warm glass to include pot melts, pattern bars, and some nice size drop-outs. This kiln is both top and side-firing with the option of a 3” viewing window built into the side.
This kiln is great for instructional workshops as it has over 20 different firing schedules as well as many blank slots for those users that want to design their own firing schedules. All programs are easily editable so you can fine-tune your controller's results.

Why Upgrade from Mechanical Relays to Solid-State Relays?
Mechanical Relays, which come standard on most kilns have internal moving parts that over time wear out and need to be replaced. Kiln manufacturers recommend you replace your mechanical relays approximately every 2 years. Solid-state relays have no moving parts last far longer than standard mechanical relays and offer far better temperature control during hold times. Since solid-state relays also have no moving parts to wear out, they NEVER need to be replaced. You will notice that solid-state relays are silent. The only sound you will hear is just the reassuring hum of the heating elements. So, this factory upgrade saves you potential downtime from having to wait for new relays to arrive, potential over-fires from relays sticking in the closed position, potential aggravation from having to learn how to remove and replace the mechanical relays yourself. We think this upgrade is well worth the cost and will save you time and aggravation over the life of your kiln.
