Sentinel Touch Screen Control Type

After subjecting the new Sentinel Smart Touch controller to ruthless testing, we are proud to add this to our family of kilns.

Continuous voltage and amperage readout

New Paragon kilns equipped with the Sentinel give a continuous amperage and circuit voltage readout during firings. You will know at a glance if the voltage drops or when to replace elements.

Easy-to-use touch screen

Easy-to-follow screen descriptions simplify programming. Give a title to each custom program. Use up to 32 segments per program. The novice mode is ingeniously simple, with questions that help you program each step.

WiFi updates

As long as you have WiFi access, you can update the controller even from distant lands like Australia or New Zealand when new features are available.

Graphics display

The Sentinel displays a graph of the program during operation.

Editing on the fly

Edit the program during firing with Skip Step, Add Segments, Add Temperature, and Add Time. Program a temperature alarm to remind yourself to check witness cones.

Control

The Sentinel can turn a kiln vent on or off for each segment of a program. And, of course, the Sentinel can control the cooling rate for special glaze effects.
