CS-56 PREMIERE PARAGON GLASS KILN
Unsurpassed quality is the hallmark of the CS-Series kilns. The CS-56 tops them all.
Deluxe Quartz Tubes
The roof elements are protected in 10 quartz tubes for a cleaner kiln interior. There is less dust in the kiln, because there are no element grooves in the top.
Heat from the Top, Walls, and Floor
The CS-5630 is 56” x 30” x 16” high. With elements in the floor, walls, and roof, you will enjoy unsurpassed heat distribution.
Extra Insulation and Woven Gasket
Lift the kiln top section with handles in the front and sides and with assistance from gas springs. The roof is 3” thick ceramic fiber, and the walls are 3” firebrick backed by 1” of ceramic fiber board (4” of total wall thickness). The extra insulation helps to maintain even temperatures. A woven gasket between the kiln top and floor helps to hold in the heat. The floor surface is a convenient 30” high from ground level. The 4 ½” thick firebrick floor includes two expansion joints.
Watch the glass through 2” x 3” peepholes mounted in the left and right sides. The engineered peephole plugs include steel handles. The kiln remains stable with locking casters.
Motorized Vent for Firing Molds
If you fire molds, you will welcome the motorized Orton Vent Master, which is mounted in the back wall of the kiln. The vent, mounted on rubber isolators to prevent vibration, removes moisture from the kiln through two rear-mounted collection cups. This reduces rust in the kiln. The vent is standard on the CS-5630 and plugs into an auxiliary output in the back of the kiln. This allows you to turn on the vent through the digital controller.
Mercury Relays are Standard
Deluxe, long-lasting mercury relays are standard. If your State does not allow Mercury Relays, you can select "Solid State Relays" in the options. Solid State Relays are also extremely reliable, outlasting standard Mechanical Relays by multiples of hundreds of cycles. (Check your State laws, or inquire with us to be sure).
The optional (but highly recommended) Furniture Kit-
The recommended furniture kit (also called a shelf kit) for the Paragon CS-5630 Kiln includes:
1 - 27" x 53" x 1-3/8" Dyson extruded shelf.
4 – 1 1/2" x 2" x 24" long support/dam, to be placed under the shelf. Lay the supports under the shelf so the supports are perpendicular to the direction of the floor elements. Space the supports evenly under the shelf.
