3. functions of the TC60 quickly and ensures that you can use all the capablities of your control Please refer to the security advice of the kiln manufacturer Make sure that the control is mounted at a safe distance from the kiln and that the control is not exposed to direct heat or radiation when the kiln is opened whilst it is hot The microprocessor controller TC60 provides your kiln with a precise and reproducable controlling unit The firing course is shown as a firing curve consisting of five segments An example is shown below This firing curve consists of the following sements a programme delay 1 hour heating up to 600 C in 6 hours 100 C h heating up to 900 C in 2 hours 150 C h dwell 30 minutes cooling down 350 C h o a9 y Up to five often used curves can be saved as individual programmes These firing curves let you consider your experience and special wishes The values of these five programmes can be changed as you like The five programmes are saved even after the controller is powered off When a firing curve has been entered once you don t have to re enter it every time you can simply call up this programm This saves time and avoid errors 11 Seoantrup Typical Firing Curves Depending on application clay glaze etc it required very different firing curves Your dealer will assist you for detailed questions Following firing curves are some typical examples these are loaded as programme
