Hi,
My electric kiln, which was made here in Costa Rica for me with the elect=
ric
components imported from the U.S. only reaches temperatures of about 1200=
C,
so I guess it's a cone 5. Originally the fellow who made it told me it wa=
s
going to be a cone 6 but when I picked it up, he said "bueno...mas o meno=
s,"
(well, more or less). So that's why I'm treat it as a cone 5. I don't fir=
e
to cone 5 because I didn't want to burn out the elements too quickly.
What I'd like to do is have a cone 10 kiln and fire at cone 6. It's a 220=
,
of course, and draws, I believe, 65 amps. It's on it's own dedicated line.
It has 3 elements and three infinite switches, no computer control, no ki=
ln
sitter. My question is, can I get 3 different elements that will go to co=
ne
10 and replace the elements that are in the kiln now?
Thanks,
Martin
