I am making a foam lid for my 10 gallon HLT. It will have two elbow plumbing fixtures, with 2000 watt 120v water heater elements in each. Each element will connect to a seperate 20 amp circuit w/GFCI.
At first, I am going to control the elements manually, just turn them off and on as needed to keep the temp steady.
Later, I would like to use a PID to handle this (a brewery is never done).
Can a PID control 2 seperate SSR's, with each SSR controlling one of the water heater elements?
I would like to just go 240v, but recent events have led me to beleive my panel won't support the extra current draw.
