    Auber 1500 pid

       The contactor is a 120 volts.  I switched the broiler element today for a 240/1500 watt broiler element and eliminated the  120 volt contactor. I believe the pid is pulling just over 6 amps at 240.  It eliminated the noise of contactor and ran spot on temp.   I finally got it to 250 but took...

    Auber 1500 pid

    My smoker is 30 X 40x 60.   The controller does a very good job of holding a constant temp. but the contactor seems to be taking a beating.  By all means I'm not trying to give the Auber controller a bad rapp, just be aware in my situation it not a plug and play.  I do have access to a...

    Auber 1500 pid

       I recently hooked the Auber 1500 up to my new refrig. build.   I'm using a 240/volt- 2700 watt broiler element as my heat source. The Auber controls a 120 volt contactor  which tries to regulate the 240 volts. So far this is working out poorly. The pid seems to leak voltage so the contactor...

    Looking for a ss 3/8 stuffing tube for a Lem stuffer

      I have been looking all over for a long 3/8 dia. stainless stuffing tube for my Lem 15 pound  stuffer.  I believe it has a 2-1/8 base. The smallest tube that came with the stuffer is a little large for breakfast sausage and snacksticks.  Thanks

    Help with chimney parts and pid.

    Thanks iron horse         I'm not sure if I need two either. I use one now for my single refrig build but doesn't seem to put out a huge volume of smoke.It may be enough as I'm just a rookie.   The pid I looked at had a max.output of 12 amps. Not sure if that means at 110 or 220. I will have to...

    New member. Serious question.

    Fatdaddy   I just got most the plastic off mine today. I'm in the same boat you were in! I put my digital thermometer probe against foam and took temp up to 350 with a heat gun  with no ill effects. It doesn't seem to burn easily unless its in direct flame and then goes out as soon as flame is...
