    Control panel is complete

    Still working on the stand I under estimated the cost of all the little stuff especially in 316 stainless. The whole thing is in my attic at the moment.

    Thanks for the help 24vac was the key. The regulators are not the best but do allow for a little over 11WC pressure, but the pilots get a little tricky to control as there is a pressure drop when the burner fires. I did find the correct orifices for the pilots visibly smaller hole. Looks sweet!

    Okay bought the valves and I think I have the correct pilot orifice in the bag that it came in. Looks like there should have been a 0.010 and 0.018. 24vac transformer in the mail. Lets see what all of this stuff does. I hope I get this all working before my keg runs out!

    Okay more confusion on my side. I agree the regulators are crap for this, I will look for the correct ones. The lowest I could find were 0-10 psi and they are cheap and flaky as heck. Pilot to LP? I was not aware of any change that can be made with the pilot just the spring in the valve...

    I am using LP, first regulator to 20psi, secondary is a variable from 0-15psi. End game is to feed a manifold with 20psi then slit to 3 vaiable regulators to adjust 0.5psi range or wc pressure. I have changed out the springs to LP and 10wc approx. I have just ordered a 24vac transformer to...

    Ohh and thanks for the help, both on this thread and the other million I have read fo yours. When done and time allowing I may post a lengthy thread on how my build went and the traps I fell into. I have a fairly nice modular aluminum set up, right size to go into the attic since my wife will...

    24VAC, I have no idea how I missed that one. It does sound like the valve is opening but I have no idea how the thermocouple works, it clearly uses voltage and resistance. I did test and it appears as though the thermocouple is working. Guess next up is a different power supply, never worked...

    Hi everyone, I need some help with the above valve. I have 3 of them and have them mounted to a nice new aluminum brew stand. However I can not get gas to pass through these valves. I am going to list a brain dump in the home that someone will tell me what I am missing. Any help is greatly...
