Heating Elements:  

The brewhouse is supplied with four 6,000 W ultra-low watt density heating elements. 

Each heating element will draw 25A at 240V (single phase) or 17A at 208V (three phase).  Each single phase 
element is pre-wired for 240V operation and has a pigtail with an L6-30P twist lock connector for easy removal 
for cleaning.  Each three phase element is pre-wired for 208V operation and has a pigtail with an L14-30P twist 
lock connector for easy removal for cleaning. We recommend SJOOW type cable 10 ga minimum.  Again, your 
local codes will dictate the cable type and gauge.

IMPORTANT: 

Always consult your local codes to determine what type of cable is acceptable, what gauge is 

required, and maximum lengths of flexible cable allowed.

Your system is supplied with PT100 RTD temperature probes with 30 feet of cable. Insert the Temperature Probe into the cord grip and thermowell 

until the probe bottoms out. It is important to ensure it is inserted all the way, otherwise this can cause your temperature readings to be inaccurate. 

Tighten the cord grip until the probe cable is locked into place. 

Connect the white, red, and blue wires to the control panel listed below.
