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 1800º F is 500 hours or about 1000 melts   /   at 2000º 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 2000° F Melting capacity: Gold- 30 Troy ounces....Silver 25 Troy ounces 6.2 amps 120 V Manual ElectroMelt Stock # 31807 Price: $899.95 240 V Manual ElectroMelt Stock # 31806 Price: $899.95

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 ElectroMelt Capacity Gold Capacity Silver Melt Time to 1800° F 120V Stock# 220V Stock# Price Automatic Standard 30 Troy Ounces 25 Troy Ounces 21 Minutes 31809 31808 $1,478.95 Automatic Maxi 100 Troy Ounces 83 Troy Ounces 31 Minutes 31811 31810 $1,699.95

	Crucibles- Genuine Kerr crucibles provide extended life for optimum performance and durability. Kerr brand crucibles provide maximum resistance to oxidation while metal is being melted. To avoid contamination use a separate crucible for each type of metal used.	Performance Plus	29478		$30.95		29479	$51.95
