Electronics / Re: Having trouble picking a controller for my homemade gassifer.
« on: February 04, 2015, 08:41:24 PM »
Hey thanks for the reply's and sorry for this late reply I've been welding away in the garage.
The RK-2001AT2 from new horizon is a little sketchy with the display in C and the 240Vac I contacted new horizon and the guy I emailed would not fully answer my questions and when I called them the guy that answered was not very friendly so that's out of the question.
I found a similar controller on Ecomfort but it does not have the exhaust temp senor however it does use the water temp sensor to detect a low fuel situation and shutdown the blower and then activate a circuit just like the AT2.

Electronics / Having trouble picking a controller for my homemade gassifer.
« on: January 27, 2015, 07:39:55 PM »
I'm almost done building a gassifer and I'm having trouble picking a controller/aquastat.
I'm looking at the RK-2001AT2 controller "that's for the eko and attack boilers" including the water temp and exhaust probe so that's over $300 I had some questions for the vendor about the controller which I have emailed and called but have not been able to answer if the controller can be switched to Deg F.
My question is this controller worth it and is there something better?
The thing I like about it the most is if the controller calls for heat and starts the fan and then if the exhaust temp does not rise in X period of time it will cut the fan so it does not cool the boiler and if set send a signal to activate a backup heat source light a lamp to reload ect.
here is the manual

I replied back to woodisgood1~at~yahoo.com for help but Im not sure where is goes.
So will ask here also.
I tried from another network / IP address and it lets me in thats how i'm posting this!
What happened and how can I prevent this I even tried my phone on LTE/3G and got the same message.
My current IP at home is 174.140.119.176
Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask for help but I'm a little stuck.
"Attached is a screenshot of what i'm seeing it will not let me go anywhere I tried two browsers and clearing cache."
Okay I attempted to attach a screensot but got this message. The upload folder is full. Please try a smaller file and/or contact an administrator.
Thanks jeremy

To make a long story short I'm building a gassifer and integrating a large heat exchanger directly into the boiler to eliminate a flat plate heat exchanger and additional pump.
And I have existing appliances that are ferrous that I cant let o2 get to and I just want to bury a forward compatible PEX in the ground also.

I never thought of EBay you are right it's loaded with 1.25 Pex I was checking amazon pexsypply and houseneeds.

Plumbing / 1 1/4" VS two 1" Pex runs
« on: December 31, 2014, 06:02:36 PM »
I'm looking for 1 1/4 O2 barrier pex but I'm having a hard time finding any and let alone finding 1 1/4 in stock.
If I were to use two 1" pex " A total of four" Two return two supply and Tee'ed off in a balanced fashion to bring them back together and split them apart does anyone see an issue with that?
Also ends and elbows for 1 1/4" pex is insane.
