PID installed in Proofer

[neocostical]

last night I installed a PID in my proofer and it worked awesome. I can't believe how steady the heat is.  had to make a few adjustments on the offset but otherwise it was very simple.  going to install a second one with a pin thermocouple to install in the meat to shut down the entire system when IT is reached. I would reccomend them to anyone!!

Got any pics so other members can get ideas?

My smoker/proofer has new electronics and is really stable for maintaining the heat and fan.

I wired my pids so the SYL1512 Controls the SYL2352, but then I thought if a don't pay attention to Temp the pids would start up when smoker cooled.
To remedy this I added auxiliary contacts to my contactor and a start button.
When the IT reaches set temp smoker will shut down and a light will turn on and won't restart until the button is pushed.
