Description: This PID controller kit is designed to retrofit into the European Gaggia Classic espresso machine made after 2015 (which has energy saving timer). Its installation manual is based on Gaggia Classic 2016 (Model#: RI9403/11). With a PID controller added to the heater control circuit, brew water temperature can be controlled to within ±1° accuracy. Thus, it will significantly improve the taste of your espresso. Users can also easily adjust the brew water temperature to suit their own tastes. LED Color: RedUnique featuresThe PID controller in this kit is specifically modified for Gaggia Espresso machine. Additional parameters are included to balance the requirements of cold start speed, shot recovery speed and long term stability. The platinum RTD temperature sensor (RTDstat) used is more accurate and has greater long-term stability than thermocouple sensors. Temperature variations within the controller’s environment will not affect the accuracy of its reading. In addition, the sensor is built in a shape similar to the original thermostat, to fit the same place.All the cables in the kit have higher temperature endurances than the original cables used by the manufacture. We use color coded cables with either fluoropolymer or silicone insulation. This will prevent the potential electrical shock caused by PVC insulated wires touching the boiler during operation.The installation is completely reversible if you ever want to sell the machine or send it to service.To install the kit, users will need the following: Basic knowledge of electronics wiring and safety Screw driver, pliers, a socket wrench and small amount of alcohol. 30-60 minutes of time.More important: No requirement to learn how to set up the PID controller (usually, this is the most challenging part of the project for espresso drinkers with little electronics background).Feature: Control brew temperature. Custom manufactured PID temperature controller with parameters pre-set for Gaggia. Bright anodized aluminum box with mounting slot pre-cut and wiring hole sealed with rubber grommet. Solid state relay with mounting hardware and heat conductive paste. Platinum RTD temperature sensor made to fit the thermostat clip on the machine High temperature resistant wires, color coded, cut to length and terminated with proper connectors Detailed installation guide and operation manual with text and photos Note 1: This kit works for 220V (European) or 110V (US or Canada) power supplies.
