Run the heat up to 130 until I he wood stalls again. Then turn off the ompressor and go to 145 and restart the compressor again when safe. When I recharged my unit with 134a, I can operate at 140. High pressure switch trips at 145.
Delmhorst J2000 is a mainstay. Pin style meter, has shunt calibration, temperature and species compensation. For thick wood, get the slide hammer option. The same meter can use both.
What meter are you using? Checking a sample board or the wood in the kiln?My meter will always read high if I take it inside the kiln to check for MC. Usually about 4% higher than the actually MC of the woodNote: I use the Wagner pinless meter. I rely on it for a basis of MC but when I get a deviation of 30% between the dry and wet bulb my wood is dry usually.
Hi GuysStan from Nyle.Yellowhammer call me when your compressor fails, I think soon. The reason you can get up to 140°F is that you are undercharged and the compressor shouldn't run at that temperature.
