Controller Options
Optimal Temperature Control in Kiln Operations with Evenheat
There are now 3 controller options available on all Evenheat Knife / Heat Treat Ovens.
The now standard controller is the Icon, based on Bartlett's Spark control platform.

Icon brings an affordable touchscreen design to the market.
The controller's programming has been praised for its simplicity and efficiency, while the user interaction with the touchscreen has received high marks for clarity and responsiveness. The Icon has demonstrated seamless compatibility with Evenheat’s Quiet Drive Solid State relay system, delivering exceptional performance.
True to Evenheat’s tradition of innovation, the Icon enhances Bartlett's proven control platform with key upgrades. These include low-error Special Limits thermocouples for precise temperature readings and non-metallic faceplates, ensuring excellent Wi-Fi connectivity for the Bartlett mobile app.
Combining advanced features with reliable performance, the Icon offers exceptional value and sets a new standard in kiln control systems.
However, if you are looking to upgrade, you still have the (2) options that have always been available on Evenheat's Heat Treat units: RampMaster 3 and TAP II.
Evenheat, in collaboration with SDS Industries and Bartlett Instrument, delivers exceptional design, technology, and performance in kiln control systems. The TAP stands out in this lineup as a state-of-the-art touchscreen controller, adept for all firing and heat processing needs and epitomizing the zenith of control technology. For enthusiasts of the traditional approach, the RampMaster 3 offers comprehensive control with an intuitive four-digit interface.
RampMaster 3: The Standard in Heat Treatment Control
The RampMaster 3 redefines excellence in heat treating ovens. It boasts a four-digit display and is equipped with twelve program slots for tailored heat treatment procedures. Its accessible numbered keypad and program review feature enhance the user experience. Crucially, it is integrated with the Quiet Drive Solid State Relay System, offering unmatched control and convenience. This combination positions the RampMaster 3 as a premier choice for precise kiln temperature management.
TAP II: The Forefront of Temperature Control Technology
The Evenheat TAP II represents the cutting edge in temperature control, merging ease of use with comprehensive functionality and user-centric design. It facilitates easy access to programs with its clear, readable displays. The TAP II aids in the meticulous creation and fine-tuning of programs, featuring unlimited storage capacity without the worry of data loss. Renowned for its reliable and precise performance, particularly when paired with the Quiet Drive Solid State output, it guarantees superior results. Additionally, the TAP II offers convenient connectivity through Wi-Fi or Ethernet, compatible with its app available on both iOS and Android platforms, making it a truly innovative and indispensable control tool in kiln operations.

Evenheat confidently anticipates that its solid state relay will endure for the entire lifespan of your unit. Read on to understand why this feature is so critical.
Power Interrupt Switch - Option
The Power Interrupt Switch enhances safety by automatically cutting off power to the heating elements when the door opens and restoring it upon closure.
Employing a specialized safety switch, this feature is expertly designed for critical safety functions. The robust construction of the switch includes a mechanism that effectively separates and opens any contacts that may have fused or stuck, ensuring reliable and genuine safety.
KF Extreme Series Features
Read on to understand what makes the LB Series the Shop Standard for so many
Chamber Depths from 31.5" to 49.5"
The KF Extreme Series is expertly crafted for extended projects like Damascus steel creation, firearm components, and, naturally, swords and more.
Available in a range of chamber depths, starting from 31.5" and extending up to 49.5", these ovens cater to a variety of lengthy workpieces.
Side-only Heating Elements
KF Extreme models feature side-only heating elements, a design approach shared with Evenheat's LB Series, ensuring outstanding temperature distribution throughout the entire length of the chamber.
Dual Side Opening Door
Cool Touch Handle
Evenheat's innovative swing-out door boasts a front-positioned handle/latch for effortless access, eschewing the traditional side placement. This handle, made from cool-to-the-touch phenolic material, is designed for one-handed operation and also serves as the door latch, merging ease of use with practical functionality.
Relay Access Port
Door Shields
Swing View Equipped
Evenheat seamlessly integrates its sophisticated TAP II and RampMaster 3 temperature controls into the revolutionary Swing View Adjustable Enclosure.
This innovative design features an adjustable, swing-up enclosure, enabling you to easily set the control panel at your ideal viewing and programming angle. Once adjusted, it can be smoothly returned to a flat position, providing excellent visibility from anywhere in your workshop. The design is intuitive and user-friendly, improving overall interaction.
Particularly beneficial for touchscreen controls like the TAP II, the Swing View Adjustable Enclosure allows for perfect alignment with your viewing angle, greatly enhancing the user experience with its practical and ergonomic design.
Loud Alarm Output Jack
2200°F (1205°C) Maximum Temperature
The KF Extreme models boast a maximum operational temperature of 2200°F (1204°C), a range that comfortably accommodates most steels used in knife making and machine shop applications.
The peak temperature capability is dictated by the type of heating element wire employed. For all KF Extreme model heating elements, we utilize a Sandvik Nickel-Chrome alloy wire. This alloy is renowned for its durability and stability, maintaining its integrity and performing exceptionally well at temperatures up to 2200°F.

Maintenance Parts Tag
Evenheat has simplified the replacement of worn parts by introducing a maintenance parts tag. This handy tag lists all the relevant Evenheat part numbers for frequently maintained components, streamlining your maintenance process. This thoughtful innovation is designed to ease your maintenance workload. It's exactly the kind of feature you've probably wished for in the past, right?
