    Solid State Relay (SSR) not shutting off

    And that was the issue. I live in Denver (@6000 feet) and on the DSPR 120, my boil was starting at 190. I had to adjust the bAST from the default of 200 to 190 as the boil was running away from me and I could not control it as it will push 100% on the element until it met the bAST number...

    Solid State Relay (SSR) not shutting off

    My wiring was spot on - It was an issue with DSPR adjustment. All is good now. Thanks for the schematic! :)

    Solid State Relay (SSR) not shutting off

    FIXED - Issue was due to lack of knowledge... :( Here is what I figured out: Thank you to ZmannR2 on making my brain look at troubleshooting the DSPR120. - After calibrating the temp probe in ice water, I was able to get the EZBoil setup correctly with the temp. - Going into the...

    Solid State Relay (SSR) not shutting off

    Hello Everyone~ I had not been able to update until now as I have been busy with some after-hours work and could not get the time in to test. I just finished testing with the SSR and here are my findings: Go to 14:00 in my video I posted yesterday and you will see the test of the SSR with a...

    The control from the DSPR120 isa 12V DC signal. I will try using the 9V DC battery when I get it hooked back up. I will let you know.

    Solid State Relay (SSR) not shutting off

    Here is the deal - I did some additional testing after I wrote my last post. I did a basic SSR test with a lamp of 40 - 100 volts. I put the lamp inline to the SSR and then used a 9 volt battery to activate the SSR. Guess what? The SSR works. Now I am really confused. :confused: I...

    I have done that. The HLT heats up to the set temperature, the Out light goes off, and the element continues to heat.

    Solid State Relay (SSR) not shutting off

    On the DSPR120, the "power out" LED is NOT on. The SSR does not show the LED on. The circuit is still being made as I read 240v at the element connector. I do not have the element hooked up at this time. Oh, and yes, the SSR responds when the "power out" LED is on and off on the DSPR120...

    Solid State Relay (SSR) not shutting off

    OK - I tested with disconnecting the 3 or 4. The SSR LED is out and the connector for the heating element is reading 240 volts. I do not have a heating element connected.

    Solid State Relay (SSR) not shutting off

    Hello Everyone ~ I have recently built a control panel for my HERMS brewing system and having an issue with my Solid State Relays. Here are the specifications of the setup: - Dedicated 240v 30a circuit to garage - Circuit terminates to a Spa Panel (GFCI Breaker) with recepticle for control...

    Hi Doug293cz ~ Will the PT100 RTD's be compatible with the Auberin SYL-2352 PID's? Since I will need to replace the REX-C100's I will need to know if I will need to replace the sensors. Thanks!

    So, this is NOT SAFE as there is no true ground, correct? Wonder what a professional electrician thinks of this. If it is safe, I would like to speak with someone who is using this exact setup. I may be moving soon and hoping that there will be a 4-wire 220v to use so I do not have to...

    Could a 220v voltage regulator work in this instance between the contactor and the output to the elements? Thanks!
