    Pennsylvania 110v Electric Panel

    I have a 110v electric control panel for sale. 175 + shipping. Comes with thermocouple. 40amp ssr. Only used 3 times. Just don't have time any more. Custom 3d printed facepanel. The thermocouple is attached now. It is hanging in the picture as I was testing.

    Control Panel help. Dual voltage RIMS panel with PWM.

    First order made! All indicators and switches. Purchased the enclosure as well. Next payday, I'll order the rest for the panel. Then the expensive stuff, pump, RIMS tube, and elements.

    Thanks, No need for a transfer switch.. haha. I was just looking for an option so I don't have a large household light switch on the panel. :) Everything else looks good. Thanks for all of the help with this.

    Control Panel help. Dual voltage RIMS panel with PWM.

    When I am running on 120v, I'll be supplementing with the power burner on my gas stove. I currently run a 2000w 120v on a BIAB build with the stove and I get a very strong boil, I have to turn the stove down a bit. I think I'll be fine with the 1375. The majority of the time, I'll be running...

    Also, looking at parts, Auber has a Volt Meter. DV-100. That would be nice to be able to visually see what voltage is flowing. In my limited design knowledge, I'd add that to the Neutral and the hot leg coming out of the r30a reay at the COM connection? Also, instead of using a 30a switch, can...

    Disregard my last post. I misread it as saying DSPR1, which is the manual controlled PWM. The DSPR120 is the EZboil..

    Control Panel help. Dual voltage RIMS panel with PWM.

    So what is the consensus? The ezboil or the device in the schematic? They are fairly price competitive. Also, I think i'd like a switch added to it so that it's not live as soon as I plug the panel in. I'd like the ability to turn it on and off. Other than that, it looks great to me. Probably...

    Looks great thanks!! I wasn't notified of the replies. While on 120 I will be supplementing with gas on a stove top. I currently do that and get a hard boil. I'll take a better look at this tonight when I'm in front of a pc.

    The interlock was just a plus, I've been brewing long enough that I don't fore see myself running the element without the pump. Voltage flexibility is the biggy. If there is a way to throw a disconnect to take one leguy from the 240 wouldn't that work as well?

    Control Panel help. Dual voltage RIMS panel with PWM.

    Looking to build a small panel for a future RIMS build. I have a few requirements. 1. Be able to use either a 120v or 240v power source. - Brew indoors during winter, garage on 240 during summer. 2. Use a 5500w element for the RIMS, switchable between wattage. 240 to heat sparge / strike...

    New RIMS setup

    Such a zombie thread but I have to bring it back for a few questions. 1. I see you have an outlet for your pump but it doesn't appear that there is a switch to turn it on, do you have constant power to that output and plug the pump in as needed? Or, is power supplied once an element is...

    Pennsylvania 15g Electric Brewery for Sale

    Thanks, I guess I should mark this sold.. lol Some lucky bugger is enjoying it now. However I'm looking forward to smaller scale brewing. Much easier.
