The TE 50 QN Toploader has a volume of 50 litres and is a kiln from the TE-Q series suitable for temperatures to 1320°C.
The Quattro TE-Q series comprises two different series: models TE-QN and TE-QS in square design with 4-side heating and elements recessed into grooved bricks, and models TE 70 QT/QTS and 110 QT with 4-side heating and elements mounted on support rods.
Both designs are equipped with a high-quality 2-layer insulation structure that is fitted precisely into a very sturdy frame construction. The high-quality, two-colour industrial paint finish used on the frame turns the Quattro series into attractive ROHDE Toploaders. The in-frame ventilated lid and the use of galvanized steel sheet in the kiln casing provide effective protection against corrosion. Another feature of this series is the carefully manufactured kiln lid, as the round toploader it is provided with a pressure spring that allows easy opening of the lid.
The kiln is designed for long-term and continuous use at temperatures up to 1240°C which makes it suitable for applications such as bisque, earthenware, onglaze and stoneware firings. These applications correspond to Seger Cone 6a or Orton Cone 6.
The high-quality insulation allows the kiln to be fired safely at stoneware temperatures using a regular 230 V “Schuko” plug connector (3.6 kW).
The sturdy lid construction is supported by gas pressure springs that allow easy, effortless and safe opening of the lid.
