Rohde TE 100 S Toploader

The TE 100 S Toploader has a volume of 100 litres and is a kiln from the TE-S series suitable for temperatures to 1320°C.

ROHDE Toploaders from the TE-S series are high-quality kilns for everyday use in professional ceramic workshops. The kilns in this series have been continually developed by ROHDE over the last three decades. Toploaders from the TE-S series guarantee state-of-the-art technology and are characterised by outstanding durability.

Many ceramic workshops appreciate the flexibility and extendability of some models and use this feature to increase the economic efficiency of their firing capacities to obtain the best possible results. Besides an extensive range of technical features and high-quality workmanship.

This kiln is available as single phase or 3-phase. In the UK the majority of homes have a single phase supply (the standard three wires: live, neutral and earth). 3-phase supplies (five wires) are usually only found in industrial or commercial settings, so please check which connection type you require before ordering. In either case this kiln will need to be connected by a qualified electrician.

ROHDE Toploaders from the TE-S series offer particular technical features, such as:

Extendability

The kiln volume of four models from the ROHDE Toploader TE-S series can be increased up to 50% by simply fitting in a heatable additional extension ring (ZWR).

TE 80 S to 100 litres volume

TE 95 S to 145 litres volume

TE 130 S to 200 litres volume

TE 165 S to 250 litres volume

Floor heating

All models of the TE-S series, except the TE 80 S and the TE 100 S, are equipped with a standard heatable kiln floor. The additional heating provides an even temperature distribution in particular in the lower and middle temperature ranges.

Features

Long-term application temperature Tapp 1290°C

The kiln is designed for long-term and continuous use at temperatures up to 1290°C which makes it suitable for applications such as bisque, earthenware, onglaze and stoneware firing as well as high-temperature stoneware, soft paste porcelain firings. These applications correspond to Seger Cone 8 or Orton Cone 9.

Gas pressure spring-supported opening mechanism for the lid

The sturdy lid construction is supported by gas pressure springs that allow easy, effortless and safe opening of the lid.

Reversible kiln stand, handy and practical

The kiln stand can be turned upside-down. This allows the kiln to be used at two different working heights. The toploader can be adjusted to your individual needs and makes loading and unloading of the firing chamber much easier on the back.

Integrated safety due to safety switch

A door contact switch automatically isolates the heating elements from the power supply when the kiln opens. The integrated overtemperature protection prevents damage to electrical components.

High-quality heating elements

With the heating elements made from “Kanthal A1” we attach great importance to a low surface load and a careful production. The heating elements are reliable and durable thanks to a sufficient reserve capacity in the calculation.

Disassembly

The kiln can be disassembled easily into several parts for on-site delivery. The toploader’s design allows its individual parts to fit through doors with a width of 55 cm.

3-year warranty

We produce each kiln by hand and keep to strict quality guidelines. Therefore, we offer a voluntary 36-months warranty to extend legal warranty regulations.
