    This is the one I used.
    AC DC 24V Digital Temperature Controller PID 25DA SSR K Thermocouple Probe | eBay


    24v AC/DC
    I never used the solid state relay


    Shipping did take a while, maybe 3 weeks.




    Mine has been running 24/7 without any problems.
    I just need to confirm where I picked up the - for the controller supply.

    Engel Thermostat Upgrade

    Finally getting around to putting the temp controlled thermostat and fans in the Engel. I have the diagrams from Ron for the MRFT=530A-A4. Mine is however the 60 litre MRFT-5600-G4 and the wiring is quite different. Has anyone done the 60 litre and have the wiring diagram or where they tapped in? If so can you post here.
    cheers

    OK I think I may have it sussed and maybe easier than I thought.
    The main power wire that requires splitting is the 12v Red main wired so that is easy.
    Just have to determine the Neutral(240v) Negative 12v common wire. This is the one that needs to be split and run to thermostat controller using 2 wires. From what I saw today this must be Orange but will confirm in the next day or so for the 60 litre Engel. This one just needs to be tapped into.
    Hopefully I have this right as there seems to be no info or wiring diagrams on the 60 litre Engels easily available.
