Firing program sequence:
• The temperature rises at the entered, ascending ramp (heating up) [ramp rate] until the kiln reaches the soak or target
temperature.
• It then soaks (dwells) at the soak temperature for the soak period.
• It then runs the next segment until the end of the program is reached.
• It is possible to control ascending ramps (heating up) & descending ramps (cooling down).
• Ascending ramps (heating up) and descending ramps (cooling down) are referred to as the "ramp rate".
• The ramp rate is set in values between 1 and 999°C/h or as "FULL" (full load heating) or "END" (end of the program)
[see Section 6.4.].
• The soak/target temperature is settable over the range 0 to 1320°C (2408°F).
• The soak period is settable over the range 00:00 (no soak) to 99 hours 59 mins.
Note:
During soaking, the kiln temperature and the remaining soak time appear on the display at intervals of 15 seconds.
User information:
For simple firing such as biscuit firing, two segments are sufficient, more complex firings such as crystal glazes or glass
production require several segments.
