Frontloaders KE-N Series

Rohde Frontloaders form the KE-N series comprise of six models with kiln volumes between 100 and 480 litres.  The heating elements are recessed into grooved firebricks on all five wall sides.

The KE-N series has been designed for use in workshops and schools.  The heating elements in this series have been recessed into grooved bricks.  This results in a variety of advantages.  The heating elements are protected while the kiln is being charged, power output is constant and heat is evenly distributed throughout the firing chamber, providing the best possible results.

Special Features of the KE-N Series:

  • 5-side heating resulting in even heat distribution
  • Heating elements recessed into grooved brick
  • Stainless steel in-frame ventilation resulting in low external temperatures and corrosion protection
  • 3-layer insulation structure
  • R-SiC ceiling support “ System ROHDE” prevents cracks and particles falling from the ceiling onto the ware
  • Adjustable door hinge, easy dismounting of door for transport.

2 - 3 Zone Control incl. controller ST630
CHOISISSEZ OPTION

3 Zone Control Option for ROHDE model Kilns - Can only be added as an option when ordering a NEW kiln.

3 Zone Control option INCLUDES Controller ST 630 (do not change the Controller Option to ST630 - leave as default controller option)

How Does Zone Control Work

Zone Control kilns have a thermocouple in each section of the kiln and cycle the power to each section on and off semi-independently as if it were an individual kiln. When you have have a 3 section kiln and the bottom section is firing a little cooler than the middle and and top section. With zone control turned on, the controller will turn off power to the middle and top sections until the bottom section has caught up and then turn the power to all 3 sections back on. This ensures that the temperature difference between the sections never gets too great.

Zone Control cannot be added later as it requires the changing of several internal compenents most notable because the kiln needs to have a minimum power rating known as 'the loss to watt ratio' in order for the kiln to keep up with the program when sections are turned off to balance the temperature.

Stainless Steel Exhaust Air Hood For KE330N & KE480N

 

Rohde Exhaust aiir hoods for electric frontloaders KE and ELS ranges

The robust stainless steel exhaust air hoolds cover the entire ceiling area of the frontloader absorbing exhaust air from the kiln.  The ROHDE in-frame  ventilated side walls direct the heat produced inside the kiln into the ceiling area.  The exhaust air hood then absorbs and discharges it through a connected tube.  

 

Exhaust air hoods can be connected to other pipes using a standardised socket.  This should be done by a company specialising in ventilation and chimney systems.

 

Construction properties are perfectly matched to ROHDE Frontloaders allowing optimum removal of exhaust air, e.g. for Paperclay applications.
