1517 - Relay (Clear Rectangle, Deltrol)

Relay - 1517

 - This relay has been used for many years by Skutt Kilns. It fits KM models that have 5 louvered vents on the top of the control box. 
**If yours has 6 then you should use the black relay.

 * As of 2011, Skutt recommends replacing your old clear 25 Amp with the same 25 Amp Relay that they were always using, instead of upgrading to the new black relays which are used in all new kilns. The old style clear Deltrol relays have turned out to do just as good a job if not better than the new black version.

PDF - Installing a Type-K MI Cable Replacement Thermocouple
For a short period of time we used what is called a MI Cable Thermocouple. These look like little metal tubes and require a 1/4 inch hole in the brick as opposed to the 1/2 inch hole used by a Standard Type-K Thermocouple. We still use them on our glass kilns but we can no longer source ones that work well at ceramic temperatures. If you are replacing one of these on a ceramic kiln you will need to use the Standard Type-K Thermocouple instructions and drill out the thermocouple hole in the brick to accommodate the 1/2 inch thermocouple.
