I have a manual controlled kiln and am ready to upgrade to digital. Actually have 2, my wife does pottery and we both want to go digital. I have been reading here and elsewhere on wiring but still not quite ready to break into to the kilns current wiring to tie in the PID and SSR's. I am also not looking forward to dealing withe PID programming as it seems to be a bear. I have found some pre-wired programmable controllers with inlet for power supply and outlet for kiln but they are just too costly. I found what I thought was a good compromise on ebay, and plug n play unit with inlet and outlet, but with PID that reasonably priced http://www.ebay.com/itm/Plug-Play-PID-Temperature-Controller-SSR-Box-Kiln-Probe-Paragon-Electric-Oven-/121152022588?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item1c3539283c , however its 110v. I contacted the seller and they don't offer a 220V version. They offer a 220V kit, just components not a pre wired unit. http://www.thermomart.com/Electronic-Paragon-Kiln-parts-temperature-instrument/kiln-2SSR-2%20hot-line .
Has any one taken this approach or able to walk me through how to wire a 220V version?
