Power Requirements

IMPORTANT: Have your electrician

or power company verify your voltage.

Most U.S. residential wiring is 120/240

volt. However, 208 volt is becoming com

mon in shopping centers and schools. 208

volt and 240 volt wall receptacles look the

same. If you order a kiln of the wrong

voltage, your kiln will need new elements

to fire properly. This is not covered by

warranty!

Before you plug a new kiln into an ex

isting circuit, have an electrician check the

circuit. Have him compare the circuit wire

and breaker sizes with our recommended

wire sizes. All wire sizes listed are for

COPPER only.

Most 10 and 12 sided kilns rated 208

volt are shipped without cord sets and

must be direct-wired by an electrician.

Doorway Clearance

for Kilns

Clearance may vary from specifica

tions for special order kilns. Dragon kiln:

doorway clearance is 34” if door handles

and element cover are temporarily

removed.

**The 12-sided sectional kilns need 12”

of door clearance when sections are disas-

sembled. Fully assembled, the kilns need

36” of doorway clearance. (The separate

kiln sections move through the doorway

sideways.)

Modifications

Catalog price list applies to standard

models built to these specifications. Any

change will include a charge for time and

materials, regardless of the type. Please

add 3 to 4 weeks for shipment of custom-

ized models.

Lid & Door Cutoff Switch

A lid switch can be factory-installed in

most Paragon kilns, top or front loading.

The switch shuts off power to the ele-

ments when the lid or door is opened

slightly. We recommend the lid switch for

heat treating, glass fusing, raku, and any

application that requires the kiln to be

opened at high temperature.
