For those seeking top-tier drying performance, the KD250PRO sets the standard in small-scale, low-temperature kilns. It offers advanced drying technology and precise control with three modes: Dehumidification (DH), Hybrid, and Conventional. The KD250PRO's state-of-the-art controller features a digital sensor for wet and dry bulb measurements, allowing for data logging, scheduling, & remote access. With circulating fans, integrated controls, and a powered vent kit, the KD250PRO ensures optimal drying efficiency and consistent results.
The KD250PRO kiln with a 20' container is available.
Features
Versatile Operation Modes
The KD250PRO offers multiple drying modes, including DH, Hybrid, and Conventional, allowing for tailored drying schedules.
DH Mode
Optimized for slower-drying hardwoods, this mode uses a compressor to remove moisture without heat loss, making it energy-efficient and maintaining consistent drying conditions by retaining heat in the kiln chamber.
Hybrid Mode
Combines traditional heat sources with dehumidification for versatile drying, automatically switching between primary and secondary heat sources to maximize moisture removal while minimizing energy use, making it suitable for fast-drying softwoods.
Conventional Mode
Ideal for general drying needs, this mode uses venting to control humidity, allowing you to reduce moisture levels
efficiently by expelling excess humidity through vents while regulating temperature using spray controls.
Advanced Control System
Equipped with a user-friendly touch-screen controller that supports manual and automatic operation.
Graphing
Stay informed with real-time and historical data trends. The built-in graphing feature allows you to monitor kiln performance, moisture levels, and temperature changes over time, ensuring precise drying adjustments.
Alarms
Keep operations running smoothly with the KD250PRO's intelligent alarm system. It alerts you to any deviations or faults, enabling quick troubleshooting and minimizing downtime to maintain consistent drying performance .
Advanced Moisture Removal
Utilizes a powerful dehumidification system that minimizes energy loss by retaining heat while removing moisture from the kiln chamber at up to 140° F.
Optional Upgrades Available
Features optional add-ons like a spray system kit for humidity control and a heat booster package for faster heating and sterilization.
