Kerr ElectroMelt Furnaces
The world's
workhorse for melting metals. Designed to be hand-held for easy pouring directly
to the flask. Also used for reclaiming, alloying and refining metals.
Features found on all Kerr ElectroMelt furnaces:
- Safety lid switch
- Built in pyrometer
- Graphite crucible
- Graphite stirring rod
- Extended life heating element (life expectancy: at 1800° F is 500 hours
or about 1000 melts / at 2000°F is 30 hours or 60 melts)
- Available in 120 V and 220 V

Manual ElectroMelt
The
original Manual ElectroMelt controls the temperature using percentage
of "time on", "time off" principle. Maximum temperature is 50° F
less than our automatic models. For long
sustained melts we suggest the automatic models for improved element
performance.
Features:
- Calibrated dial plate
- Excellent for occasional caster
- Attains 1800° F in 22 minutes
- Maximum temperature 2050° F
- Melting capacity: Gold- 30 Troy ounces....Silver

Automatic ElectroMelt Models
These digitally controlled Automatic ElectroMelts are recommended when
sustained high temperature use is required. The fuzzy logic electronic
controller regulates the temperature by providing full power input to
the furnace until a preselected temperature is attained
Features:
- LED display panel
- Worry free operation
- Reduces metal temperature overshoot
- Holds temperature to a +/- 5°F
- Maximum temperature 2,050° F
- Electronics protect the element from overheating
- 11.3 amps
