The of heat treat ovens are designed with a thicker firebrick structure and a maximum temperature of 2400°F. This extra insulation and headroom offers more speed and more power per cubic foot for high mass loads.
The KO Series heat treat ovens feature side opening doors that don't subject you to the added heat of a drop-down door. They also feature a forward facing door latch that remains cool and is within easy grasp.
The KO's are available in a variety of control choice options as well as the solid state output option (which you want).
The feature a special high temperature element wire normally reserved for high temperature, ceramic applications. This special alloy plays nice at temperature and allows us to reach a maximum of 2400°F (1316°C).
The KO's are constructed of a thicker, 3" firebrick (the standard is 2-1/2"). This added thickness provides more insulation for a faster heat up and higher temperature potential.
Evenheat uses Thermal Ceramics insulating firebrick exclusively in all our products. This firebrick is made exclusively in Augusta Georgia, USA out of some very special Georgia ground. It's by far the best available.
The KO 22.5 is our second deepest KO model. If you're doing long, heavy work the KO 22.5 will meet your needs well.
Heat treating requires the removing of some very hot material from the chamber in order to quench. Everything in the chamber is hot, which includes the door. The doors on the KO's swing out and to the side, a full 180° if you need it. This puts the super-heated door well away from you as you concentrate on the work at hand.
The side opening door is an excellent design choice and makes all the difference.
The handle/latch on our swing out door is conveniently located at the front of the door, not hidden along the side. This spring loaded, phenolic handle is cool to the touch, is one-handed in design and serves as the door latch as well.
The KO's feature a door shield to provide protection against firebrick damage as well as to reduce the temperature seen at the door and door handle.
The maximum usable temperature for the KO models is 2400°F (1316°C). This maximum should cover every steel you're likely to encounter, and some you never will!
All temperature controls, except for the Set-Pro, are fitted into our Swing View Adjustable Enclosure.
The Swing View is a pivoting, swing-up enclosure that allows you to rotate the control to a comfortable viewing and programming angle. Once you're done, lay it back down to see it from across the shop. It's that simple.
The swing view pairs well with TAP touchscreen control as viewing angle can be perfectly aligned. You'll love it.
The stands of the KO's have been upgraded to a stronger design and include a tool rest.
