Hi Ira, This is a Brewtus IV with PID and Vibration pump like the one in the video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UIiLeRdVWAU
I have checked the pressurestat, the strange thing here is that it has full power coming in, and coming out to both outgoing contacts at the same time. To me it seems that the switch in the pressurestat is stuck in a way that it is closing to both contacts - can this happen? regarding the SSR - I have don the tests as shown here https://youtu.be/UIiLeRdVWAU?t=10m25s <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UIiLeRdVWAU> the only difference on mine is, that my green light is not blinking but it is on constantly. so my voltage going in and going out is not jumping but consistent at 220v. I'm not sure what you mean with the red button? you mean the main power switch? then yes, this is working. I feel we're getting there! :-) thanks best regards Arman Am Samstag, 28.
