Dual-Media Mastery: DM2818HE 

The Olympic Kilns DM2818HE Dual-Media Kiln is a versatile powerhouse for pottery enthusiasts and glass artists alike. With its spacious 28.25" wide by 18" deep interior, this large-size kiln is perfect for home studios, production potters, and busy local studios or schools looking to maximize their firing capacity.

Designed for multi-media work, this kiln offers the best of both worlds. It can reach high temperatures up to Cone 10 (2350°F) for stoneware and ceramics, while also featuring a lid element specifically for glass fusing. This dual functionality allows artists to explore various mediums without investing in multiple kilns.

Built with durability and precision in mind, the DM2818HE boasts Olympic's proven electrical box design and balanced heating elements. These features ensure even heating and consistent results, giving you peace of mind with every firing. The included Kilnstar 12-Key electronic controller offers easy programming for both cone fire and ramp/hold options, putting you in control of your creative process.

Optional Add-Ons for Olympic 2818HE Dual-Media

Solid State Relay: Efficiently controls kiln elements, handling high power loads with precision. Offers faster response times and longer lifespan compared to mechanical relays, ensuring accurate temperature control and energy savings.

Orton Vent Master: Removes harmful toxins and improves airflow through downdraft venting, promoting safety and even heating. Extends kiln life and reduces maintenance costs by minimizing buildup of corrosive vapors.

Rolling Stand with Caster Wheels: Simplifies kiln movement for storage and workspace optimization. Particularly useful when using a vent system, allowing easy access for maintenance and cleaning.

Power Interrupt Switch: Automatically cuts power to heating elements when the kiln lid is open, preventing accidents. Protects both the operator and the kiln, enhancing overall safety during use.

Shelf/Furniture Kit: Maximizes kiln firing space with a comprehensive set of shelves and posts. Purchasing with the initial kiln order saves costs and provides a complete setup, though shelves may have minor imperfections.

Multi-Zone Thermocouples: Enable precise temperature regulation across different zones, ensuring uniform heating even in densely loaded kilns or when firing sculptures. By monitoring and adjusting temperatures in multiple zones, the kiln maintains consistent heat distribution, resulting in evenly fired ceramics and improved firing outcomes.
