CP Probe - the simplest potters' oxyprobe

CP probe - overview

Introduction

The CP probe is a very simple, low cost oxygen probe with an easy-to-read digital meter displaying oxidation/reduction. The CP Probe saves you money by omitting the thermocouple pyrometer, so that you can continue to use cones. This probe is ideal to control both gas and wood-fired kilns.

Type CP oxygen probe - simple, low-cost potters' probe

Applications

The advantages of measurement of oxidation/reduction include:

Fuel savings - an economical firing depends on supplying enough oxygen, without waste of energy from heating excess air.
Reliable glaze colours - Knowing the right level of reduction every firing gives you the colours you want, firing after firing.
Reduced air pollution - Use the CP Probe as a guide for stoking wood-fired kilns to reduce wood consumption and unnecessary ash and smoke.

Specifications

The CP probe is based on the SIRO2 zirconia oxygen sensor. This all-ceramic sensor is the world-wide standard for controlling oxidation and reduction.

Installation

Note that the probe contains brittle ceramic components. Treat it as fragile: do not drop, knock or handle roughly.

Protect the digital meter from heat. The CP Probe includes enough lead to the meter to enable you to keep the meter well away from the kiln
