Looks like they have 1 amp outputs for SSR. That being the case they should work just fine.

This build is no longer going to be 120V. I am stepping up to 220V for the ease of wiring. With 220V I can simply run wire for one 220V outlet vs. running two seperate 20A circuits. 220V will also effeciently handle all my electrical needs for this setup. The lowest wattage for a 220V heating...

I'm not sure what you mean by "relief valve calibrated". The analog pressure indicator itself could possibly be calibrated, but most of those cheaper indicators like those in the links do not allow for adjustments, but used more for "reference only" applications.

I have worked in the pharmaceutical industry for 6 years as a validation specialist and a metrologist and have never seen temperature specifications of +/- 0.5 C or F.

Ordered from Brewers Hardware. $15

Mine is very similar to Swagmans.

I agree!! It's a little big at 16x16x6, but at only $52 shipped from ebay I couldn't pass it up. Plus most of the switch holes were already punched.

A few parts came in allowing me to build the tri-clamp heating element. Some milling was required in the box so the heating element would sit properly. Tri-clamp allows quick removal for cleaning or element replacement. A few sanitary ferrules that will be welded to the vessel...

At only 9 3/4" x 8" I wouldn't think that would offer you much room for wiring. (Breakers, SSR's, terminal strips, etc.)

That's awesome Swagman!! That is exactly what I have in mind to do for my own setup.

Did that help?

Oooops. Let me see if I can remedy that.

I'm still in the early stages of accumulating all required pieces to get this build underway, but thought I would go ahead and share what I have so far. The vessels are 5 gallon. I plan on doing small 3 gallon batches.

I guess i failed to add that I am only doing 2.5 gallon batches I have also followed the build of Scubasteve, which I think is very cool and have gotten some very good ideas from also.
