    Cavitation when pumping boiling liquid

    For the boil kettle the pickup tube draws from the side of the keg's bottom. This is the one where I am having most problems since I am trying to recirculate to sanitize the tubing, plate chiller and pump. The HLT draws from the bottom center. It also has some problems when transfer boiling...

    Cavitation when pumping boiling liquid

    Whenever I try to pump water or wort when it is boiling there is cavitation. I have tried pumping the liquid well before it reaches boiling, but as soon as it is boiling the problem starts. I have tried reducing the flow after the pump but this hasn't helped. Is there any way to prevent this?

    Help with 5 amp fuse blowing

    Actually after checking my order again I ordered the correct switches. Now I am confused why pin 14 stays on, since the diagram for SW1 saws they are both NO.

    The SW1 switch (the correct one in the diagram) is both NO. The SW11 switch (the one I installed) pin 24 is NO, pin 14 NC. Using SW1 will turn power on for everything, then turn everything off when pressed again. I think that is the problem I am having.

    I checked Auber Instruments site and I had ordered SW11, not SW1 switches. I also programmed the timer so it is sounding the alarm when it finishes countdown, not while it counts down. Thanks again for your help.

    I am also confused about the purpose of the power button. Right now I am able to use everything with the power button off except the element switch. Is this correct?

    Help with 5 amp fuse blowing

    I am a bit confused about how to wire the selector switches for the two alarms. In the diagram I have 11 go to 1 on the switch, and 12 in the diagram go to 2 on the switch. This causes the alarm to sound as the timer is counting down.

    Help with 5 amp fuse blowing

    Connected everything the way it should have been connected in the schematic above. Everything seems to work. I had saved all version of the schematic that I had, assumed the newest one was the up-to-date one. I was wrong. Thanks for you help!
