RampMaster II
Wall Mount Controls

Convert your manually controlled kiln into a fully automatic with our RampMaster II Wall Mount Controls. It's very possible and easy to do, just plug it in!

Wall Mount controllers are stand alone, fully programmable, automatic temperature controllers. They are designed to be added to an existing, manually controlled kiln to provide for automatic operation.

Available in a wide range of control, voltage and phase designs.

What is a RampMaster II Wall Mount Control?

The RampMaster II Wall Mount Control is a controller package designed to "automate" a currently manually controlled kiln. The manually controlled kiln is "plugged into" (or direct wired depending) into the Wall Mount Control. The Wall Mount is then "plugged into" the power supply. Beyond that, the thermocouple is inserted into the kiln and it's ready to go.

There are many manually controlled kilns out there and many users would like to automate them without having to throw away a perfectly good kiln. Thus, the reasoning behind the Wall Mount Controls
.

 

Can the RampMaster II be used on Any Manually Controlled Kiln?

As a general rule, yes! When we speak of manually controlled kilns we speak of kilns fitted with a combination of on/off switches, infinite switches and low-medium-high switches, as well as, Dawson Kiln Sitters.

There are some types of kilns which may have these types of switches, among others, that are not fully manual. Let's call them semi-automatic? They may use motors to mechanically rotate switches and the like. In cases like this it's a judgment call. The odds are that a chaotic effect will result along with disappointment. Evenheat model series such as TnB and Fyrematic would fall into this group.
 

Can the RampMaster II be used to Control more than One Kiln?

No. The Wall Mount Controls are designed to control a single kiln only.
 

I see you offer a Handheld Controller Package also, what's the difference between that and the Wall Mount Control?

The handheld controller package works with kilns that are originally designed with automatic controllers. The Wall Mount Controls are designed to "automate" kilns that are originally designed with manually operated controls.
 

Can I use the KISS software package with the RampMaster II Wall Mount?

Absolutely!
 

What do I Need to Know When Purchasing?

You'll need to provide the voltage, phase, amperage and plug configuration of the kiln. Voltage, phase and amperage can/should be found on the kiln nameplate.
