Temperature Controllers
T8150 Limitronic Controller
Required temperature can be preset at which point the kiln will ‘soak’ or cut-off dependent upon the setting of a switch. Has red power-on light and amber light which cuts out when preset temperature is reached. The firing speed is controlled by the kiln energy regulator not by the instrument. 8151 Limitronic Plus Controller As Limitronic but with added feature of continuous digital temperature display in addition to automatic cut-off or soak.
8152 Hobbymaster Controller
Automatic controller offering choice of fast or slow speed controlled firings with timed soak and cut-off facility. Non indicating but reliable and very simple to use. Not shown
8156-1 ‘201’ Controller
Has delay start facility, adjustable heating ramp to adjustable first set point then full power to adjustable top temperature set point followed by adjustable timed soak and adjustable cooling ramp to final set point. Kiln then switched off and end of program signalled. 10 stored programs and battery back-up. Continuous digital display and program values. Auxiliary relay for damper control etc. Key switch.
8156-2 ‘202’ Controller
As 8156-1 Controller but with three adjustable heating ramps each with set point and soak time then adjustable cooling ramp (as 201). ‘Enable time’ facility also. Same appearance as 201 controller.
8160-4 Firemaster 4 Controller
Updated version of the popular Firemaster controller designed specifically for ceramics. Gives continuous temperature display, ten user-adjustable programs and five fixed programs which can be run at the touch of a button.

Prog. 11 750°C Decorating
Prog. 12 1000°C Biscuit
Prog. 13 1060°C Hobby or Artware
Prog. 14 1120°C Bisc or E’W glaze
Prog. 15 1260°C Cone 8 - 9 Stoneware

Features include a delay-on timer, two fully adjustable ramps and a timed soak facility for each program. Programs can be simply linked together to produce complex multi-ramp programs if required. Firing and cooling rates can be controlled. Additional features include automatic shut down in event of a thermocouple fault or if the kiln is prevented from reaching temperature by an element failure. The instrument also advises how much electricity was used on the last firing and other useful information.

Above all, the Firemaster has been designed to be easy to use. This is assisted by a firing graph and various LED’s which indicate not only what is required but also the program stage and temperature throughout the firing. An outstanding controller, competitively priced.

8161-1 Bentrup Controller

A state-of-the-art controller which has the ability to store 9 programs, each with two ramps and adjustable soak time followed by an adjustable cooling ramp. In addition it has six fixed programs as follows:

Program 4 150°C
Program 5 800°C
Program 6 900°C
Program 7 1050°C
Program 8 1180°C
Program 9 1250°C

Additional features include the ability to interrogate the instrument to see how many units of electricity have been used on a firing and also how many firings have been done. Also senses when element failure, power supply interruption, thermocouple failure, etc. has occurred and gives a coded signal to indicate which.

Other controllers
We can supply various other. temperature controllers and thermocouples for specialised applications including Differential control systems to maintain close temperature uniformity in different areas of the firing chamber.
