Blichmann Engineering Power Controller
Details
This unique modular Power Controller allows precise control over the power of your electric heating element from 0-100% power. Need to control more than one heating element? Add up to four additional relay modules and drive them all with this one tool.
Unlike cheap "dimmer switch" controllers with non-linear outputs, the Blichmann Power Controller makes maintaining the perfect boil intensity and heating rate much easier. Our tried-and-true Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) method controls the percentage of time heaters are energized over short one-second intervals, making the boiling process gentler on your heater and eliminating electrical noise.
Other key features include:
- Precise linear control of power from 0-100% with a fast-acting power knob
- Drive up to five heating elements simultaneously with a single Power Controller
- Industrial-grade PWM control methodology is reliable, gentle on equipment, and very linear
- Ideal for boil kettle and BIAB applications where temperature control is not needed but precise power control is
- Dials in an exact and repeatable boil-off rate to hit final boil volume for every batch
- Perfect match for the Blichmann BoilCoil™ electric heater as well as other manufacturers' immersion heaters
- 30A 240V (7200W) single phase and 20A 120V (2400W) models available
- Integral DIN rail groove in the back allows the connection of multiple controllers and relay modules for table or wall mounting
- Unique enclosure routes cables out of the back for table mounting or out of the bottom for wall mounting
- Integral heat sink keeps the industrial-grade, UL-listed solid-state relay (SSR) cool, extending the controller's life
- L6-30 30A 240V or L6-20 120V with power cable "pigtails" available
- Optional 120V and 240V extension cables and plug adapters available
- Assembled in the USA from US-made and imported components
NOTE: This product does not read or control temperature.
