[SIZE=10.5pt]SSR used is the classic 40A / 240V AC[/SIZE]Oggie said:That looks really cool arzaman, I've been working on a similar project, just 3d printing the top of my case for it now(still just prototype). What did you do with your SSRs, not worry about a heatsink? Only 2kw 10amp I suppose, do they heat up? I don't have any experience with SSRs, was going to have heat sinks on the right side of the body.
I don't have all the high voltage side yet so a bit away from testing yet.
I was also thinking of puting a manual pump override switch, so if in full auto mode I can flick on the pump to sterilize the wort chiller etc.
You must configure ArdBir before using it in any part.luisdepaula2001 said:No parameter setting, I did the test in manual mode.
Also, when I tested the power out for pump and heat in the controller; if I do Line and Ground, I get 66 volts and the same for Neutral and ground.
ArdBir is a controller for your pot and use 12 volt DC.zwitter said:Hi
What is the voltage at the wall socket?
Have you connected the ground to a ground some where? In Australia we have 240v and every socket has ground and there are connections (earth bonds) to the water pipe and gas pipe coming into the house / apartment.
If the ground is not earthed to a good earth point then it will float and potentially be a shock hazard. The heatsink and pot may also float at roughly half the supply voltage.
Photos?
