Product Description

Olympic Kilns builds affordable powerful volume producing glass kilns.  Users are provided with equipment that handles capacity loads and large pieces with ease.  The Production Glass Fusing kilns have many outstanding features and can be designed as top loading, clamshell loading, or both top and clamshell loading; and as a Bell design with the firing chamber electronically raised and  lowered and a removable floor for convenient loading and unloading. 

The frames of the Production glass fusing kilns are built of heavy angle iron and metal tubing.  Kiln walls are 4 ½” insulating brick with 1” ceramic fiberboard and 1” air space created by the tube frame.  The result is an energy efficient heavy load production kiln with a cooler outside surface and temperature.  These models are built with double insulated floors consisting of brick and ceramic fiberboard.  The kilns walls and floor are constructed of kiln brick and board insulation.  Kiln brick, ceramic board and pyro-block modules comprise the easy opening counter sprung lid.

Floor elements, when selected as an option, are controlled by infinite switches which can be adjusted by the kiln operator as needed.  Glass fusing production kilns are equipped with heavy gauge elements and industrial relays for long life.  Production volume glass kiln models have a hinged electrical box for easy access and their own breaker box for easy access, safety and lockout.

Production glass kiln models come equipped with pilot light, heavy angle iron frame, stainless steel jacket, breaker box, Bartlett KILNSTAR 12-key digital electronic controller, instruction manuals, and warranty card.  One-year Limited Kiln Warranty.  Options are available including upgrading to the Genesis touchscreen controller, lid elements in quartz rods, Type S thermocouple, 2 or 3 zone control, 480 volt, vents, and much more.  Furniture Kits are available and provide 1 layer of shelving with smooth ceramic fiberboard, ceramic paper and large square posts. Some options must be quoted because of variations in models.

  • Mercury Relays in all states except: CA, CT, IL, LA, ME, MA, MI, MN, NH, NJ, NY, NC, RI, VT, WA. (SSRs are recommended as the appropriate approved relay for an additional cost, or you may downgrade to mechanical relays which are available, but not recommended.)
  • Pilot Light
  • Welded Heavy Angle Iron Frame
  • Stainless Steel Jacket
  • Breaker Box
  • Instruction Manual
  • One-year limited warranty (Refer to manufacturer's warranty)

Key Information

The Bartlett KILNSTAR 12-key Digital Controller gives you the freedom to create up to six, 8-step user programs. Other features include delay start, preheat, alarm, cone adjustments, thermocouple adjustments, °F or °C operation, 16 segment program, and skip step.

As an option, you can upgrade to the Genesis Controller, a modern and intuitive user platform with touch-screen technology for an effortless user interface. It can store up to 12 custom user programs with up to 32 segments per program and has the ability to make adjustment during a firing such as add segments, add temperature, and skip segments. Additionally, the easy-to-follow screen descriptions and graphical display of the firing process, allow the Genesis controller to make firing kilns extremely straightforward.

The GF15E is also equipped with its own breaker box for easy access, safety and lockout.

Why Upgrade from Mechanical Relays to Solid-State Relays?      

Mechanical Relays, which come standard on most kilns have internal moving parts which over time wear out and need to be replaced.  Kiln manufacturers recommend you replace your mechanical relays approximately every 2 years.  Solid-state relays have no moving parts and last far longer than standard mechanical relays and offer far better temperature control during hold times.  Since solid-state relays also have no moving parts to wear out, they NEVER need to be replaced.  You will notice that solid-state relays are silent.  The only sound you will hear is just the reassuring hum of the heating elements.  So, this factory upgrade saves you potential down time from having to wait for new relays to arrive, potential over-fires from relays sticking in the closed position, potential aggravation from having to learn how to remove and replace the mechanical relays yourself.  We think this upgrade is well worth the cost and will save you time and aggravation over the life of your kiln.

ABOUT OUR FLAT RATE SHIPPING ON THIS PRODUCT: 

Due to design improvements made to the Olympic GF series kilns, this kiln will now be shipped by private carrier in its own freight delivery truck straight from the factory to your door. This insures that your kiln arrives at your location without damage.  This avoids your kiln being jostled around between freight stops, and it ensures no other large delivery items will bump into your kiln. It also avoids stops at freight hubs where things have to be moved on and off the truck, which is when most damages occur. All of this special treatment comes at a cost.  We offer a larger discount on these kilns and charge a flat rate with pass through shipping so that you get your kiln delivered the best way possible. If the actual shipping ends up being less than the flat rate shipping charge once the kiln is ready to ship, we will refund the difference to you. (*The usual remote delivery access fees will apply if you are in an area that is not accessible to a regular freight delivery. See our limited delivery areas definition on the shipping info page.)

NOTE*** This kiln is delivered fully assembled. No assembly is required on site. The carrier is responsible for transporting the freight but not for unloading it. Large capacity kilns 20 cubic feet and larger require the customer to have a forklift that can move the kiln from the truck to the desired location. If you do not have access to a forklift, check the internet or yellow pages for small moving companies that can take the freight off the freight carrier and move the freight to the desired location. Give any prospective mover a physical description of the kiln and its weight, and inform them that it is designed to be picked up with a truck and a forklift only. It is your responsibility to move the freight from the truck to its place of use.
