We're wanting to add an element to our HLT for an eherms system. The idea is to build a very simple controller with just one pid and ssr to run a single element. With this design we could easily add an element to the BK at a later date, and just unplug the HLT element and plug in the BK element to use the same controller... now, I'm not sure if most guys start simple and work their way up or if everyone jumps straight into the more complex controllers but I can't seem to find a simple wiring diagram for what I need.
Not one I totally trust anyway.
This is the closest I've found, I think, but in this diagram, if the switch were off the PID would lose power. How can this be modified so that the switch will prevent the element from firing but allow the PID to remain powered?
Is there anything else wrong with the diagram?
Thanks in advance for all your help.
