So I recently made a pipe-bomb-looking RIMS. I'm using the 2" liquid tight RTD probe from Auberins.com coupled with the SYL-2352 PID. My issue is that my temp readings are off. Not way crazy off, just off enough to not trust it.
I've read through the other threads and know I have the correct input type selected in the Sn setting and I'm aware of the offset allowance in the Pb setting.
The issue is that it's reading approx 3-4 degrees higher than my other thermometers in the crushed ice water test and 6-7 degrees lower in boiling water. WTF????
I called Auberins on it and the only suggestion they had was maybe there wasn't enough thermal compound and I should disassemble the probe and add more. Which didn't really sit well with me, it kind of sounded like they made a product that didn't work and i should fix it...
Anyway, thought I'd see if anybody here had any good ideas! I appreciate anyone's help!
