Peak High-Temperature Firing Capacity

Featuring a spacious 28.25"W x 31.5"D interior, the 2831HE is engineered to reach Cone 10 at 2350°F. It incorporates Olympic's advanced electrical box design with strategically placed heat shields and heating elements, ensuring uniform, high-temperature firings. This makes it perfectly suited for complex high-fire ceramic and pottery projects.

Precision Control for Fine Artistry

Outfitted with the Bartlett 3K-CF controller, the 2831HE provides artists with precise control over their firing processes. Upgrade options like the Genesis touchscreen or the KilnStar controller are available, adding sophisticated functionalities such as delay start and cone offset, enabling artists to achieve exacting standards in their work.

Customizable to Fit Your Artistic Ambitions

The 2831HE offers customization options including 1-phase or 3-phase wiring, a Type S thermocouple, automatic lid shutoff, and multi-zone control. With power options extending beyond the standard 208 or 240 volts, the kiln can be tailored to your specific artistic requirements. For details on higher voltage configurations, contact Pottery Pulse.

Versatility for a Spectrum of Artistic Mediums

Designed with a focus on pottery and ceramics, the 2831HE also caters to glasswork, especially with the addition of the optional dual-media lid element.

And Pottery Pulse also highly recommends the addition of Solid State Relays for all operations, ensuring quieter, more precise, and longer-lasting kiln performance.

All-Encompassing Kit for Diverse Artistic Projects

The 2831HE can be paired with a specially designed Furniture Kit, including a variety of shelves, large square posts, and kiln wash. This kit is tailored to support an extensive array of artistic projects, offering the tools needed for creative exploration across different mediums.
