Rohde TE-165 S Pottery Kiln From  £6100.37


The TE 165 S Toploader has a volume of 165 litres and is a kiln from the TE-S series suitable for temperatures to 1320°C.

ROHDE Toploaders from the TE-S series are high-quality kilns for everyday use in professional ceramic workshops. The kilns in this series have been continually developed by ROHDE over the last three decades. Toploaders from the TE-S series guarantee state-of-the-art technology and are characterised by outstanding durability.

Many ceramic workshops appreciate the flexibility and extendability of some models and use this feature to increase the economic efficiency of their firing capacities to obtain the best possible results. Besides an extensive range of technical features and high-quality workmanship, ROHDE Toploaders from the TE-S series offer particular technical features, such as:

Extendability (not TE 168 S)

The kiln volume of four models from the ROHDE Toploader TE-S series can be increased up to 50% by simply fitting in a heatable additional extension ring (ZWR).

TE   80 S to 100 litres volume
TE   95 S to 145 litres volume
TE 130 S to 200 litres volume
TE 165 S to 250 litres volume

Floor heating

Models of the TE-S series from TE 95 S upwards are equipped with a standard heatable kiln floor. The additional heating provides an even temperature distribution in particular in the lower and middle temperature ranges.

Special models with low connected load (only TE 168 S)

The TE 84 S, TE 98 S, TE 134 S and TE 168 S models are slightly different from the other models in the TE-S series. Technically, these four models are based on the smaller basic models with 80, 95, 130 and 165 litres. Their design features such as the dimensions, the insulation structure, the fl oor heating or the cover construction are identical.

In contrast to the basic models, however, these models cannot be subsequently expanded with an extension ring. This allows an even distribution of the connected load since no power has to be kept free for a later extension ring. The entire output of the kiln can, therefore, be evenly distributed over three phases. This permits up to 15 % lower connected load – compared to the basic TE-S series model.

The TE 84 S, TE 98 S, TE 134 S and TE 168 S models are just as powerful as the basic models and can be used at the same application and maximum temperatures.

Features

 

Long-term application temperature Tapp 1290°C

The kiln is designed for long-term and continuous use at temperatures up to 1290°C which makes it suitable for applications such as bisque, earthenware, onglaze and stoneware firing as well as high-temperature stoneware, soft paste porcelain firings. These applications correspond to Seger Cone 8 or Orton Cone 9.

Floor heating

The additional standard heating provides an ideal temperature distribution particularly in the lower and middle temperature ranges.

Extendibility

The kiln volume of this toploader TE series can be increased by up to 50% by simply fitting or even retrofitting an additional heatable extension ring (ZWR). Mount the ring, connect the kiln to the mains supply and continue working with 50% more firing capacity.

Gas pressure spring-supported opening mechanism for the lid

The sturdy lid construction is supported by gas pressure springs that allow easy, effortless and safe opening of the lid.

Reversible kiln stand, handy and practical

The kiln stand can be turned upside-down. This allows the kiln to be used at two different working heights. The toploader can be adjusted to your individual needs and makes loading and unloading of the firing chamber much easier on the back.

High-quality heating elements

With the heating elements made from "Kanthal A1" we attach great importance to a low surface load and a careful production. The heating elements are reliable and durable thanks to a sufficient reserve capacity in the calculation.

Disassembly

The kiln can be disassembled easily into several parts for on-site delivery. The toploader’s design allows its individual parts to fit through doors with a width of 55 cm.

3-year warranty

We produce each kiln by hand and keep to strict quality guidelines. Therefore, we offer a voluntary 36-months warranty to extend legal warranty regulations.
