    Hey Cameron thanks for the heads up just wanted to make sure that that unit will except an 8 inch column on top

     I want to use this as a column still as well as a cooking kettle

    I also saw that you were going through the electrical panel and giving people an idea what worked and what was included, I’d like to know if there’s anything else that I need to make this fully functional

    please feel free to reach me on my cell at 518-527-5490 I’m in upstate New York in Albany

    thanks again Dave Webber

    Hey David, you are correct it is set up for an 8" tri clamp style column. I will be in touch tomorrow to discuss the panel and any other questions 

     

    Thanks

    Is be interested in taking a trip down to see it if I knew I could get a column for it , is it still available? 

    Sorry for the late reply, yes Still Dragon offers a wide array of column choices that integrate well with this unit. check them out here (FYI the top flange on this boiler is 8" but could be adapted down for a slower take off rate if that's required) Sent you a message with my phone number to coordinate a time for you to come look at it.

     

    Thanks 

  3. It has been some time since i assembled this controller, but with the amount of interest i will dig it out from storage and get reacquainted with it. From memory, 5 of the ssr's on the bottom are for switching one leg of a 240v heating element and the sixth one and one of the upper ones are for both legs of the agitator motor. The remaining one at the top left is for the dephlegmator 110v solenoid valve control. The remaining black dc ssr on the upper right is for the actual control switching of the heating elements ssr's. The PID's only have the current to control 3ish ssr's if memory serves me right.  

  4. We decided to go a different route and unfortunately never got the chance to use this bad boy. The boiler comes equipped with an agitator and drive motor.

    I assembled a control panel for this unit that will be for sale with it. It offers control over all 5 heating elements via PID control or a manual on position for each element individually. It has the ability to control the dephlegmator via PID control and solenoid valves. The panel is currently unlabeled but i have placards for each switch and PID. It has a gauge for column temp, jacket temp, and boiler contents temp. It allows control of the agitator from the panel if the motor is a single phase 240v, but it think the included motor with the boiler is 3 phase so that will not be able to control that. I'm sure i am missing some details but if you have any questions please ask!  Keep in mind this boiler can be heated via steam if you are already set up for it and you can ditch/not require such a control panel.

    The boiler is available for immediate shipment and is listed at $5500

    The panel and the boiler together will sell for $7000

    Edit: It has an 8" Tri-clamp flange for column connection.
