The Select Fire Kiln Control from AmacoŽ
does all the work so you spend less time monitoring firings. It
takes just a few minutes to program the entire firing cycle. Then,
you're free to work on other projects in your studio or classroom.
Select Fire is an option on all AmacoŽ and most ExcelŽ
kilns instead of the manual control switches (models 1099SF, 1850SF, and
1266SF are available with Select Fire only). It is also available
as a separate wall-mounted unit for kilns that were purchased with
standard controls.

The EX-365SF and EX-1099SF can be ordered with Zone Control on special
order (standard on model EX-1850SF).
The Select FireTM with Zone Control uses three thermocouples
to sense temperataure variation between the sections and sends a signal
to energize the elements in the cooler section and bring it up to
temperature with the other sections. |
