This front-loading, high volume, electric model comes equipped with pilot light, welded heavy angle iron frame, stainless steel jacket, and a 12-key digital Bartlett V6-CF Controller.

The Bartlett V6-CF 12-key Digital Controller gives you the freedom to create up to six, 8-step user programs. Other features include delay start, preheat, alarm, cone adjustments, thermocouple adjustments, °F or °C operation, 16 segment program, and skip step.

As an option, you can upgrade to the Genesis Controller, a modern and intuitive user platform with touch-screen technology for an effortless user interface. It can store up to 12 custom user programs with up to 32 segments per program and has the ability to make adjustments during a firing such as add segments, add temperature, and skip segments. Additionally, the easy-to-follow screen descriptions and graphical display of the firing process, allow the Genesis controller to make firing kilns extremely straightforward.

The FL12E is also equipped with its own breaker box for easy access, safety, and lockout.

Why Upgrade from Mechanical Relays to Solid-State Relays?      

Mechanical Relays, which come standard on most kilns have internal moving parts which 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 and 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.

NOTE***  Some Large capacity kilns 10 cubic feet and larger require the customer to have a forklift that can move the kiln from the truck to the desired location. Your kiln may or may not have this requirement. It will be at the sole discretion of the shipper based on the location of the delivery and the vehicle required. We will inform you closer to the ship date if this becomes necessary. **Please do not order this kiln if you will not acquire a forklift for that potential possibility.** If you do not have access to a forklift, check the internet or yellow pages for small moving companies that can take the freight off the freight carrier and move the freight to the desired location. Give any prospective mover a physical description of the kiln and its weight, and inform them that it is designed to be picked up with a truck and a forklift only. It is your responsibility to move the freight from the truck to its place of use.
