    Electronics Temperature Sensing to Switch on/off an Induction Heater

    I'm looking at roughly 212 F (boiling point for water) for the temp range. You think it would work in a mostly non-pressurized container? I'm a bit unfamiliar with the fridge thermostats (but I'll go research them).

    Electronics Temperature Sensing to Switch on/off an Induction Heater

    Not a bad idea, I'll look at some thermocouples and see if there are any that would seem fit for the solution. Sadly I only know the types of acid they use since the ratios of acid to whatever else they put in is basically proprietary and I'm just a seasonal worker.

    Electronics Temperature Sensing to Switch on/off an Induction Heater

    Yeah I'm thinking Induction heating is hardly the most applicable fit to the situation, but my employer wants to try it so I'm doing what I can with as few resources as possible as to not waste time AND money. The acidic solution is giving us the biggest issue, and with the temp we're trying to...

    Electronics Temperature Sensing to Switch on/off an Induction Heater

    Good ideas here, Scott. I'll take all this into consideration and let you know how it goes if I am able to get something working in the next couple weeks. Thanks for the well thought out response!

    Electronics Temperature Sensing to Switch on/off an Induction Heater

    That was one of the only ideas that I felt could really hold true over time, it is a bit of lagged feedback like you said but it's better than nothing and can definitely be used at least as a back up. If I go with this method then I'll probably use 2 separate modes of 'on', one being a startup...

    Electronics Temperature Sensing to Switch on/off an Induction Heater

    Hello, I'm having trouble thinking of ways that I can measure the temperature of an object that I am heating using an Induction Heater. A little background: The coil and workpiece will be submerged in liquid, and due to most thermometers being metal it won't work with the induction heater. I'm...
