GT 14-6 by Evenheat

Features, Specifications and Other Fun Stuff

Control Options

The GT 14-6 is most commonly ordered with the RampMaster II control. The RampMaster II is our full featured control and brings out the best in the GT 14-6. Of course we still offer the GT 14-6 with manually controlled infinite switches.

We have some very neat options designed for easy viewing and programming of the RampMaster II control. Our Swing View adjustable control option installs the RampMaster II in a swiveled enclosure that allows you to position the control at a user friendly viewing and programming angle. It's quite an improvement over the standard fixed design. For those who prefer a handheld style of devise we offer the Handheld Option. As you can imagine, the handheld option positions the RampMaster II in a handheld enclosure making programming and viewing extremely easy and comfortable. You're going to really enjoy these back saving options.

Power Interrupt Option:

The GT 14-6 is available with the Power Interrupt Option (a.k.a. lid switch). The Power Interrupt Option automatically removes power from all heating elements as the lid is opened and reapplies power as the lid is closed. Those wishing to enter the kiln during firing should strongly consider requesting this option as an added measure of safety. The Power Interrupt Option is available only on RampMaster II equipped models.

Firing Chamber Dimensions:

14.5" diameter x 6.5" deep - 0.70 cubic feet, (37cm long x 16.5cm deep - 20 litres).

Voltage and Phase Configurations:

North American Models: 120V, 12A, 1440W, NEMA 5-15R

Suitability:

The GT 14-6 is quite capable of all glass related firing up to 1800°F (982°C), such as painting, fusing, slumping, Pate de Verre, etc.. While it can be used for annealing purposes, there may be better choices, particularly our front loading designs.

It should also be noted at this point, that the GT 14-6 is designed to fire a single layer or shelf. The nature of the GT 14-6 is to provide heat from the lid elements directly to the shelf containing the glass. Attempting to fire glass below the top shelf is likely to lead to frustration and disappointment. So.....one shelf only.

The GT 14-6 is not really designed to fire Ceramic, Porcelain, Pottery, China or other "ceramic" related materials.

Recommended Kiln Furniture (Shelving & Posts):

We recommend the following shelf: 12" (30.5cm) Round Shelf - Part # 7407

You'll also need a quantity of posts to support the shelf. What length? We suggest either 1" or 2" posts. How many? Four posts works well. These will work: 2" (5cm) Tri Post - Part # 7002, 3" (7.6cm) Tri Post - Part #7003

Shipping Weight:

70 lb. (32kg)

Agency Listings and Markings:

U/L & CU/L listing available on this model. Model features and options may affect listing.
CU/L is a Canadian Listing which is accepted by authorities in all Provinces.

Kiln Vent:

Evenheat offers the Orton Downdraft Vent System as an option. Is venting necessary in glass work? Depends! Vents are nice if you're firing paints, decals or other items that may need oxygen to develop color properly. Vents also help to remove the fumes which may be generated when firing these types of items. Typical fusing and slumping really don't require a vent.
