Kittec ECO Top-Loading Kiln, 68 to 203 Liters

KITTEC ECO Top-Loader Kilns in 8 variants with controller of your choice

The top-loading kilns in the KITTEC ECO series are designed for ceramicists looking for a robust and economical entry into electric kiln technology. The model range covers a volume spectrum from 68 to 203 liters, making them suitable for small workshops as well as studios with regular workloads. All ECO models reach a maximum firing temperature of 1320 °C and are therefore suitable for most ceramic firing processes, including stoneware and porcelain. All models operate with a 400 V three-phase connection (2N~ or 3N~). Characteristic features of the ECO series include the reversible stand for two possible working heights, the powder-coated stands available in a choice of five colors, the gas spring support for easy lid opening (from ECO 80 S upwards), and the stainless steel tensioning straps.

How do the KITTEC ECO models differ within the series?

To make choosing the right model easier, we have summarized the differences in a practical way:

• ECO 70 S and ECO 80 S: The compact entry-level models with 400 V 2N~ connection and 5.6 kW power. Ideal for smaller firing volumes and tight spaces.
• ECO 95 S to ECO 125 S: The mid-sized models with 400 V 3N~ connection and 7 to 8.2 kW power. A good choice for regular firing in the studio.
• ECO 150 S to ECO 205 S: The large-volume models with 10.8 to 12 kW power for larger firing loads and more frequent work.

The ECO series from Kittec is available in the following versions:

• Model ECO 70 S: 68 liters
• Model ECO 80 S: 79 liters
• Model ECO 95 S: 95 liters
• Model ECO 105 S: 101 liters
• Model ECO 125 S: 127 liters
• Model ECO 150 S: 149 liters
• Model ECO 185 S: 190 liters
• Model ECO 205 S: 203 liters

A detailed comparison of the technical data for the various models can be found in the table with the product images.

Technical Features:

• Reversible stand for two possible working heights
• Powder-coated stand in a choice of five colors
• Gas spring support for easy lid opening (from ECO 80 S upwards)
• Stainless steel tensioning straps, welded, rustproof and smooth-running
• Maximum firing temperature 1320 °C
• All models with 400 V connection (2N~ or 3N~)
• Power output depending on model 5.6 to 12 kW

Optional Accessories:

• ESP Energy-saving package: Additional insulation to reduce heat loss and power consumption. Ideal for frequent firing or long cycles.
• Kiln furniture kit: Cordierite kiln shelves & sillimanite kiln posts for multiple firing levels, for optimal use of space in the kiln.
• Kittec CB controllers: Advanced electronic control with more programs and greater flexibility.
• Kittec bottom air inlet slide: Regulates the kiln atmosphere and improves oxygen supply.
• Peephole in the casing: Observe the firing process without opening the kiln, ideal for glaze inspection.
• Leveling feet or casters: Secure positioning or flexible movement.
• Kittec lid heating: Additional top heat, stepless ratio lid/side (model-dependent).
• Kittec bottom heating: More even bottom heat for dense/heavy firing loads (model-dependent).

The kilns come with a warranty of up to 3 years, with the exception of the heating elements, as is standard.

Electronic controllers & Formwerk specialty:

The standard equipment comes with the TC 75. This controller is very suitable for typical ceramic firing schedules and allows for the setting of delay start, controlled heating, final temperature, hold time, and controlled cooling.

Those who also want data recording can choose the kiln with the TC 95 (incl. WiFi and data recording). For more demanding firing programs and advanced control functions, the TC505, TC705, and TC707 are also available. The TC505 is particularly suitable for freely programmable firing profiles, while the TC705 and TC707 offer additional documentation functions. The TC707 also features WiFi and data recording. Upon request, the kiln is also available without a controller if you already have a suitable one.
