I'm moving from the land of a single 120v 2000 watt element & PID to dual 240v 4500 watt elements, dual pumps and Brewtroller controlled setup.
But for the life of me I can't seem to figure out my wiring plans.
I'd like to use DIN Rail mounted components as much as possible such as SSR's, terminal blocks.
I planning on having a 50amp spa subpanel installed which will be connected to the control panel via a CS6375 inlet and CS6364 twist lock connector. I've got a 20x20x8 enclosure and would like to keep all (if possible) my components in DIN rail format.
I'm planning on 10-12 12v motorized ball valves and 2 March pumps for my plumbing.
I went with 50a service so that I could run the 4500 watt element in both my boil kettle and HLT at the same time. That way I can save some time when I do back to back batches. I'd love to be able to use 2 5500 watt elements but I'm not sure if I could do that on 50a service.
I will be using a 50ft 1/2" SS coil in the HLT as a HERMS. I will have a temp probe in the HEX output, the HLT, MLT, BK and the plate chiller output.
This will all be controlled via a Brewtroller. The valves and pumps will be controlled via this relay board and I'd like to use 3 position Auto/Off/On switches too.
Im still trying to track down some reasonably priced DIN rail mounted 40A SSR's. Speaking of which, I'd like to switch both legs of the elements or should I not worry about that?
So to recap, a 3 vessel HERMS system with automated valves and elements in the BK & HLT. I'd like to use 3 way lighted maintained switches for the valves, elements and pumps.
Did I forget anything?
