TAP & Go Single Setpoint Heat Treat Controller

Introducing TAP & Go – our most simplified TAP Controller yet! The TAP & Go is a single setpoint controller, designed specifically for heat treat, knife-making, or users who don’t need to execute complex firings. With TAP & Go, just enter the temperature you want the kiln or oven to heat to, and let the controller do the work.

TAP & Go is optionally available with a 2.4” capacitive touchscreen which provides the option to monitor the kiln directly and to abort firings.

Note: The TAP & Go is intended for new kiln and oven builds. Due to its dimensions and wiring, it is not intended as a drop-in replacement for existing automatic controllers.

Features & Benefits:

• Ramp your kiln or heat treat oven to a user defined setpoint for an indefinite hold – until the firing is ended by you
• Precisely monitor the temperature of your kiln, oven, or forge via the TAP Kiln Control Mobile App or on an optional 2.4” touchscreen display
• Use TAP & Go’s built-in WiFi and Bluetooth to use the TAP Kiln Control Mobile App, even when no local internet connection is present
• Enjoy complete remote monitoring and control through the TAP Kiln Control Mobile App with a premium subscription

Available Options:

• 2.4” Capacitive Touchscreen
• 24VAC Power Adapter
• 12VDC Output Adapter

TAP Kiln Control Mobile App Capabilities:

TAP & Go pairs with the TAP Kiln Control Mobile App (available on iOS and Android) to allow you to:
