*The Mini is a direct replacement for both the Autofire Express and Sentry Xpress. For other 3Key models, control box adjustments are needed.
The V6-CF is Bartlett Instrument Company's fifth generation kiln controller. Each generation has improved the reliability, features and ease-of-use to make Bartlett Instrument Company's kiln controllers the most accepted on the market. With the V6-CF cone-fire method, you select 1 of the 4 firing speeds and your cone number and you're firing your ceramics with as few as 6 key presses! The vary-fire method gives you the freedom to create up to six, 8-step user programs to fire your ceramics, crystalline glazes, glass or jewelry. Other features include delay start, preheat, alarm, cone adjustments, thermocouple adjustments, °F or °C operation, 16 segment program, and skip step. Advanced features of the V6-CF's include 3-zone control and KISS (kiln interface software system) for remote programming and data collection from a personal computer!
