Has anyone used one of these? I was looking at the SSVR40A at first, but then saw this right below it.

I want to build a panel with one PID for HLT, and a knob controlled variable control for the Boil. With the SSVR40A,http://www.auberins.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=2_30&products_id=353 I was planning on going through a 25A contactor from the SSR. With the digital version running in burst mode, it says it is not suitable for the situation where an SSR is used to control electromechanical relays. Does that mean you should just run it through a 40 amp SSR with a large heat sink instead of a SSR and contactor? Or even run each leg of the 240volt through dual SSR's and heat sinks, then right to the heating element?
Second, maybe someone can set me strait here if I'm wrong. The way I understand the need or desire to have a contactor between a SSR and the heating element, is just to break both legs of the 240volt line at the same time.
