Just set the hot plate on wide open and plug it into the PID.Now if I just figure out how to hook a PID to a hot plate that would be great.
I'll see what I can do/ find the time, lol, Ian. I'm retired and all you retired guys know you got twice as busy the day that happened!Looks great! Would you mind scribbling out a schematic and a parts list?
I lied I guess. The $70 was before I decided to do the plug-ins and meter. Plus I now see I got charged for two boxes and got one. Figures. I didn't know that until I looked up this stuff. Schematic can be found all over the net plus it is on the directions. But give me a hollar if you have a ?.Looks great! Would you mind scribbling out a schematic and a parts list?
Here's how I hooked my TC for my hotplate. Have a 1/4" aluminum plate with one of those TC's they always send on ebay. I set the hotplate temperature to keep a mould at casting temperature which it seems to hold ± 1° F. I'd think a TC with a loop type end would work but had this thing on hand.Just set the hot plate on wide open and plug it into the PID.
