I'm looking for a high quality, US made, 240v, 70-100 amp [SSVR...SSR VA...Solid State Voltage Regulator]....whatever they're called, for a 240v, 50a temp controller I want to build.
For the life of me, I cannot find one. The cheap chinese SSVR's dominate my searches, no matter how I word the search. I've found Otto22 and Carlo Gavazzi SSR's, but I can't find (or don't know enough to find) the proper SSVR that I need. The biggest Otto22 makes is 45 amp, so they're out. I plan to control two 5500w elements, one manually and one with a PID, but I don't want to use a lower amp SSR/SSVR. I want 70A minimum.
Please don't point me to Auberins, Finglai, Crydom, Omron, or websites that offer DIY build kits. I'm just looking for the correct USA made (or high quality made anywhere) relay that will allow me to manually control the temperature with a potentiometer.
I'll probably add an Auberins DSPR400 PID and the necessay components for it in the enclosure, but that's not what I'm looking for right now.
I have most of the parts needed to build a 50a or 70a controller - new NEMA 4/12 enclosures in several sizes, NIB 22mm and 30mm push button switches, start-stop buttons, indicator lights in all colors, potentiometers, etc. All are big dollar, industrial grade operators (Allen Bradley, Schneider, ABB, etc).
I also have 14/12/10/8/6 gauge stranded wire, 12/3, 12/4, 10/3, 10/4 AWG SOOW wire, and a slew of NIB, US made, high amp rated twist lock plugs and receptacles.
Please understand I'm not boasting, I'm just explaining what my hoarding has allowed me to collect. I want to buy parts that match the quality of what I have.
I able to build the controller, I just need help sourcing the parts that match the rest of the components.
