Pottery Crafts Ventilation Hood For P5229/30/31
KM207A Zintec Hood for P5229, P5230 and P5231 Ceramaster Kilns.

The ventilation hood is designed to remove the excess heat from the kiln area.
It is positioned directly above the kiln and so it removes the air directly from around the kiln, as well as fumes from the flue, keeping the kiln area cooler.
The hood has a 150mmdiameter spigot on top for connection to customers’ exhaust ducting.
We recommend connecting the spigot directly to the room extraction system or to an exhaust fan to prevent leakage of fumes into the kiln room. 
No electrical connections are required.

6 - Heatlock
CHOOSE OPTION
Pottery Crafts Heatlock

PFL/HL HeatLock 

The Heatlock keeps the kiln door locked until the kiln has cooled to a safe temperature preventing damage to kiln door and eliminating risk of burning. The lock is discretely positioned adjacent to the interlock key under the door of our front loading kilns; it is operated by a small controller pre-set to lock at 60°C in the heating cycle and to unlock at 55°C on cooling. A warning light indicates when the door is locked, when the light goes out it is safe to open the kiln. The HeatLock is failsafe, if the power is turned off it remains locked, the door can only be opened when powered up and the temperature has dropped to 55°C.

7 - Auto Damper
CHOOSE OPTION
Pottery Crafts Auto Damper

PFL/AD Auto-damper

The damper is pre-set to close when the kiln temperature reaches 550°C, it opens again when the kiln cools down to 200°C. There is no need to set the opening and closing temperature and no complicated controller as the temperatures are factory pre-set. The auto-damper eliminates the need to come back to the kiln during firing and removes the risk of the flue remaining open throughout the firing creating a potential hazard.
