Subject: PID-ing Silva

As I am trying to PID Silva I need to install a Solid State Relay aswell, as everybody knows. But are there someone here who knows the difference between open zero and closed zero on those SSR. Is it of any importance to use one of them? The PID is a Watlow 69.//Giovanni.

For EMI considerations, Zero Crossing is preferred.

If that's what he means, for lifetime of both SSR and element, zero crossing is preferred. However, I'm far from convinced that is what he means, though I have no better ideas - I've never heard teh term. regards, Ian SMith --
