The Proper Installation of the Giberson Head and the best burner port design to match the Giberson Head
Here follows several design ideas about how to get good life out of your GibersonCeramic Burner Head. Two to three years is the average life, but I have a Giberson tip in myglory hole which is 25 years old and many people have burners that typically last ten years,outlasting several furnaces or glories!
Please note that I promise only two things. First, the burner you buy today was per-sonally cast by me. By this I mean I make them with my own hands, the same as I did 35 yearsago. And second, sooner or later the head will break. Some people will drop it and break it onopening the package. Others have broken them by hammering on the pipe work, brand new.(Don't do that!) Still others get burner "pop-back" or "burn-back" on the initial firingbecause they don't understand what "pop-back" is. “Pop-back” is when the flame is burn-ing in the head, not in front of the head. And with this condition in place, they turn up thegas and ruin the head. For a page of good color graphics concerning this problem, go tohttp://www.joppaglass.com/burner/pop_back.html (and if this explanation is insufficient, give Dudley a call).
However, 95% of the installations go along with none of the hair-pulling problemsjust suggested. Having a trouble-free site is our primary aim. Please look over and study thefollowing material. If you follow the suggestions offered, you will have the best chance fora trouble free studio.
If you are not sure of type of fuel (i.e., high or low pressure gas) or type of mixer touse, please visit this site which specifically addresses these issues:
<http://www.joppaglass.com/burner/choice.html>.
AWORSE CASE SCENARIOWe begin by showing the worst case scenario. This is a situation which has killed
many a good Giberson head. The Giberson Ceramic Head is not made out of a super "god"material. It is subject to expansion and contraction. And just like crucibles, sooner or later theGiberson Ceramic Burner Head will crack and need replacement. But this is a sure killer– thenarrow, long burner port shown below:
This straight burner port cracksheads because of the intense and rapidheat that builds up. The only situationworst than this is the "all-frax" burner port.It is general practice to turn on aglory hole and expect to be atworking temperature within 30-45minutes, maybe an hour. But an allfrax glory can get to temperature in 20minutes. If the burner port is made of fraxand is long, like our example here, thenwe get this rapid and intense heat buildup just in front of the head which occurswithin a couple of minutes. That's too hot, too fast! And that spells "trouble!" So with this"bad" idea on the page, let's explore some other ideas that promote burner head longevity.

SIGHTTUBE
Checklist for a Good Burner Head Installation1. The burner head is 4" in diameter and the burner block (port)
should be 4-1/2" in diameter. This leaves a 1/4" space on allsides of the head.
2. Place the front of the head about 1/2”- 3/4” into the burnerport.
3. The burner head is designed to be sealed into the burner block(port). To seal the head into the port, I use a piece of frax thatis 1/2" square X 14" long. Soak the frax strip in water andapply about one tsp. of Sairset mortar to the frax strip. In thiswet condition the frax will compress and pack in the smallspace between the head and burner port. This gasket will besomewhat flexible even after the mortar hardens.
4. Do not cover the head with Fiberfrax or any insulation prod-uct. The head needs to be exposed to the cool air.
5. If the burner block combustion channel is more than 3”long infront of the burner head, angle the sides of the combustionchannel to reflect the heat toward the combustion chamber.

On a narrow, thin-walled installa-tion such as this glory hole in abarrel, the burner block can beextended outward to accommo-date the necessary design ele-ments. Here in the space in frontof the burner head there is apocket at least 3" deep to help theflame seat properly. This is alsothe UV sight target (about 3-4" infront of the head). The site tubeshould focus on this spot.
Extend burner port outward.This will create essential3" pocket inside theburner block.

On a thick-walled furnace structure(greater than 6” thick), it is desirableto inset the burner block as shownhere. This eliminates most of theproblems associated with a longnarrow burner port and allows amajority of the heat to move easilyinto the combustion chamber. It alsomakes the burner head less obtru-sive (sticks out less).

At Joppa Glass we wind all of our elements to your cus-tom specifications. If you are not sure of what you want, pleasecall Dudley at (603) 456-3569 for a free consultation.
When ordering elements please have this informationhandy:• What your kiln is made of, i.e., soft brick, frax or the like.• The temperature you plan to achieve.• The dimensions of your kiln, which include the following:
1. Inner kiln dimensions2. Wall thickness and materials used3. Crown thickness and material used4. Floor thickness and construction5. Door size and location
Please read “Dudley’s Element Paper” for a rather complete set of directionsfor working with electric elements: Methods of installation, wiring diagrams,etc. Please view our element section at <www.joppaglass.com/elements/>.

Three Basic Element Installation Methods:The Grooved Brick Technique:The grooved brick technique is the traditional method of installing elements in soft brick kiln. Advantages:1. Relatively shock proof. The element is not exposed2. Mostly Student resistant. (Nothing is student proof.)3. Easy installation.4. Heavy duty, long oven life. You will tire of the oven long before
it wears out as its life expectancy is 25-30 years.5. Heat retention. The oven has lots of mass so if the door is
opened, it will not chill as quickly as would a fiber insulatedoven.
6. Wide heat use. This oven can be used over a wide temperaturerange: annealing at the low end (950°F), glass casting in the mid-dle range (1600°F), and high fired ceramics on the top end (2200°F).
Disadvantages:1. Dinosaur construction. It is heavy and hard to move. 2. More expensive to operate. Costs more to heat up and operate than does an all fiber model. In order to
anneal glass at 950°F you first have to heat all the bricks to 950°F. Over the life of the oven this couldmean a lot of money, perhaps thousands of dollars.
3. This kiln design takes longer to heat up, a time and cost issue.

The Donut System:The simple "Donut System" is best used in annealing kilns(not to exceed 1150°F) along vertical walls. It is normallyused with the all-frax kiln wall, though it can be used with(IFB) brick kiln construction. The ceramic insulators,"donuts," are normally placed one above the other as shownin the illustration to the right. They should be spaced aboutevery 6” to 8” horizontally. Some natural slump of the ele-ments will occur without any problems, i.e., though the ele-ments will sag a little they will not short out and will beelectrically secure. The elements simply hang in tandem. Please note this type of installa-tion is used for annealing situations only. For temperatures above 1150˚F we recommendusing the grooved brick construction discussed above, or use our Ceramic Rod SuspensionSystem shown below.
The “donut” is a disc shaped ceramic washer that looks like this:
The Ceramic Rod Suspension System:To completely control the placement of yourelements we recommend the ceramic rodsuspension system. The ceramic rod pro-vides internal support for your elementswhile the “donut” insulators hold every-thing in place. We recommend this systemespecially for overhead placement (as inslumpers and fusers) or for other importantsituations where you don’t want the ele-ment to move one iota from its location.

The Joppa Glassworks “Donut” SystemIn recent years we have introduced several new products for supporting
elements in kilns. We have new larger rods at 3/8” and 1/2” in diameter andmatching donuts that are rather stout. The larger systems can support larger,heavier gauge element material. Another big advantage is the larger rod structurecan sustain a condensed smaller gauge element in a relatively small space. Inother words, because of the larger diameter, the element needs less length tostretch out.
An element suspended in mid air:
To match our ceramic rods we have the followingdonut insulators. These fit over the element and sup-porting rod. The #7 & #8 Donuts are for use with 15and 16 gauge elements on both 3/8” and 1/2” rods.

The Element's Shape • The "arbor" forms the inside diameter of the element.• The outside diameter is equal to the thickness of the "arbor" plus two diame-ters of the raw wire.
In recent years there has been a great interest in large fusingand slumping kilns. We have our components in perhaps 150 ofthese kilns, some as large as 350 cubic feet. So we have a good dealof experience and can help guide you with our expertise. The largerods and donuts combined with expertly wound elements providethe successful combination to make your project a reality at a frac-tion of the cost of a store bought model.
We can help with all facets of design from 3-D CAD draw-ings to design critique, electrical schematics to controllers. But typ-ically our customers already know what they want. And they cometo us for elements and element components.

If you are a glassblower, slumper, fuser, beadmaker, caster, etc., we can help you get upand going. If you are interested in learning more about kiln design and the art of electrifying yourkiln, perhaps you would enjoy reading about how to build kilns in Dudley's book, A Glassblower's Companion. Five chapters are devoted to building annealers ofall sizes, from the very small to the very large. If you are interested in build-ing a big slumper/caster please order Dudley’s new ConstructionPaper #5, “Large Slumper/Caster Kilns,” (now $15.00).

At Joppa Glassworks, Inc. we stock several kinds of element wire, specifically“Kanthal” type in several gauge sizes (22, 20, 18, 16, 15, &14) and “Nichrome” type in 17gauge. We make all elements to order. Are you in a hurry? Please let us know and we will tryto get your order out that day.
The name of the element you order has a structure that holds information (see page14). The last number that goes in the bracket stands for the arbor size. We wind elements on6 different arbor sizes coded 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, & 3, so that number goes in the “( )” below. To orderelements, call Dudley for a free consultation (603-456-3569). Have your kiln specs handy (ref-erence page 11). The prices of our elements have changed very little over the years. We don’tlist every model we make as there are many variants. We list this sampling of elements to giveyou a specific idea of our prices.
I am more than happy to discuss why you would want one type of element overanother. There are many issues that effect choice of element configuration, such as amount ofstretch, kiln size, what the kiln is made of, maximum working temperature, etc. A wellmatched element should last for years.

Relay 6-7 is an internal SSR and is factory limited to 3 amps maximum. I prefer to limit this to 1/2 Amp as this is plenty of power for this circuit shown.
Here in the image to the right is the way I buildmost of my controllers in a 6” x 6” x 6” Euro Box. Thismakes a terrific controller shell. All the components areplaced onto a piece of 6” x 12” aluminum sheet (18 ga.thick) bent at 90 degrees. This aluminum componentboard is then screwed onto the 6” x 6” x 6” box whichprotects all the parts, a very simple control box solution.

Joppa Glassworks sells two very cool controller modules that are very afford-able, reliable, and provide many fine features for your kiln controlling needs.
OUR AUBER KIT #2372P– 30 Ramp and Soak Auber Digital controller, 1/16DIN, (85-240 VOLTS) which sends a control signal (120 VAC) to your main kiln mercuryrelay. Kit includes a type K thermocouple 36" and Dudley’s instruction guide, “How toBuild Your Own Controller, Vers. 3.5.2” a 21 page essay with pictures and diagrams tohelp you succeed, all for $165.00.
OUR AUBER KIT #2372– A simple set point controller, basically the same asabove but without the ramp and soak feature. Comes with a type K thermocouple 36"with Dudley’s instruction guide, “How to Build Your Own Controller, Vers. 3.5.2” withpictures and diagrams to help you succeed. $150.00.
Both of the above models have internal SSRs which limit the output signal to 3amps. The great thing about this is the control signal can be 24 VAC, 12 VDC, or 120 VACwhich is the most common. What you put in is what you get out.
For heavy duty we sell Mercury relays:
Joppa Product Catalog page 19
HOW TO BUILD YOUR OWN CONTROLLER
Mercury Relay
Another option for a medium duty situation is touse a mechanical relay to mate the Auber 2372P above,called a #T92S11A-120AC rated for 30 amps at 240 VAC andwill work for 120 VAC. This has a 120 VAC coil and costs$35.00. This is a good choice for controlling a bead kiln or acolor box. If you are powering something more beefy wecan suggest a heavy duty relay- prices on request.
And for those who prefer the SSR solution westill sell the 25 amp SSR for $35.00. This should bemated with a heat sink shown on the left. The combi-nation heat sink and relay sell as a kit for $70.00 whichincludes heat transfer paste and mounting screws.This relay should be powered by the Auber Syl-2352Por Syl-2352 controller module which puts out a 12VDC control signal which turns the SSR on and off. Ifyou chose the SSR solution pay close attention to con-struction of the heat dissipation system as the better
this works the more trouble free will be your kiln controlling experience. I rec-ommend using a small computer fan to blow air onto the heat sink. If you keepthis SSR cool and not overload it, this is the best of all solutions- quiet and effi-cient, and you can have cycle times low to minimize temperature drift.

A Glassblower’s Companion is about Giberson's views onglass technology. The book is 136 pages, indexed, with over 300excellent illustrations showing how to build and maintain a widevariety of glass making equipment including ten glass melting fur-naces, five glory holes, five annealers (including fuser-slumpers),and five accessory pieces of studio equipment. It is a must for any-one serious about glass blowing and maintaining a glass makingstudio.
The material is presented as a collection of essays whichfocus on the underlying philosophy of hot glass. It is a document that is of interest toanyone who works with glass whether he/she is a glassblower, a pate de verre caster,or a modern beadmaker, even someone who simply collects and loves glass.Archaeologists will be especially interested in the ancient glass explanations, asGiberson focuses on simple ideas that work. 4th Printing.
