Two or three-sided heating: which NE is right for you?

The two-sided heated models NE 40 to NE 100 are the compact entry-level kilns with smaller volume. The NE 40 is designed as a table model. The three-sided heated models NE 140 to NE 280 offer more volume and, due to the additional heated side, more uniform heat distribution.

Regarding connection: The smaller models NE 40, NE 70/L, and NE 70 run on a standard 230 V household socket. The versions with increased power rating and all models from NE 100 upwards require a 400 V three-phase connection, which must be installed by an electrician. If you need higher temperatures up to 1340 °C, more volume, or five-sided heating, our N series is the right choice.

The Nabertherm NE series is available in 9 versions:

¹ Table model. ² Maximum temperature 1200 °C.
