Versatile Firing with Olympic FL4.5E Kiln

Looking for a versatile electric kiln that can handle a variety of pottery projects? The Olympic Kilns FL4.5E Electric Kiln might be just what you need. With its medium-sized interior of 18" x 18" x 24", this kiln offers a generous 4.5 cubic feet of firing space, making it ideal for home studios, production potters, and even small schools or local studios.

This front-loading kiln is designed with convenience and precision in mind. The 12-key digital KilnStar controller allows for multiple user programs and features like delay start, preheat, and cone offset, ensuring your firings are accurate every time. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced potter, you'll appreciate the ability to fine-tune your firing process for consistent results.

Durability is key when it comes to kilns, and the FL4.5E doesn't disappoint. Its welded heavy angle iron frame and stainless steel jacket are built to withstand frequent use, while the integrated breaker box adds an extra layer of safety and ease of operation. With the ability to fire up to Cone 10 (2350°F), this kiln can handle a wide range of clay bodies and glazes.

***The importation of Mercury Displacement Relays (MDRs) is restricted in certain states. This unit includes MDRs, so the manufacturer will need to replace them with Solid-State Relays. This substitution is not one-to-one and may involve additional costs. By making this purchase, you agree to be contacted about any extra charges that may apply. Read below as to how Solid State Relays will help you save in the long-haul!

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.
