Thanks Fil - My load on each one will be 2.7Kw so I'll incorporate a couple of heat sinks

Fil - thanks for the heads up about the advice on the bleed - well worth knowing! You said don't forget the 'heatsink'. Do the SSRs get that hot? Should I stick a heatsink on each one?

Andy - thank you for the response. I'll be getting parts together and trying these relays over the next few weeks along with finishing the brewery build. I'll get back once I've go something to report (or another question!). Martin.
