Rohde Top Loading Pottery Kiln: TE250S

The ROHDE TE/S series of kilns are designed to be expandable in size, so you can start with a smaller model and then grow to a larger size later*. The ‘Rohde design’ can help with installation and limited access. You can separate the main cylinder with lid, base and legs to go through a narrow doorway (>550mm). The top temperature is 1320°C; however, it is designed for a daily working temperature of 1280°C.

This kiln is a quality professional kiln designed for those who are regularly firing to high temperatures.

 *Note, some models in the S range, are at the larger size already and cannot grow. See list below.

Kilns with increasing volume potential:

• TE 80 S becomes the TE 100 S
• TE 95 S becomes the TE 145 S
• TE 130 S becomes the TE 200 S
• TE 165 S becomes the TE 250 S

Kiln comes with 3 years warranty*.

*does not include element wear, shelf damage or improper use.

Special features of the TE/S series:

• 2 layers of insulation, including super-efficient thermal bricks and 15 mm microporous insulating board.
• The kiln sizes 80, 95, 130, and 165 can grow with an additional ring.
• Reversible kiln stand, handy and practical to help different-sized people.
• Gas strut, spring-supported opening mechanism for the lid, which makes the lid lighter to lift and close.
• A quieter working kiln using solid-state relays.
• Controllers work with ‘Mykiln App’. Watch and edit your kiln firings from the comfort of your armchair.

The S series of kiln is available with bottom heating. Note, it will need an additional 3kw.
