I have just put 4 new heating elements in my Bullet Master and thanged out both of the thermocouples. For the first run they melted lead like newer before, and I was very happy.
The seccond day the pouring side of the pot didn't keep up with running 180 gr RNFP. Something was clearly wrong. Turned the machine off to go over my wiring and it turned out that one of the leads for one of elements were loose, on the pouring side. Connected that again and the problem was still the same.
I then measured the voltage inn on the Chromalox unit on the pouring side. Inn on the unit it was 230v but out it was 0 so there's no juice going out to two of the elements. (See pic) The other unit has 230v both inn and out and it's getting hot on the premelt side, so everything is OK there I guess.
Before getting an answer from Magma on Monday maybe anyone of you know if it could be something else than the Chromalox unit. Does it have a built in fuse or is it dead and has to be replaced with a new one? Does anyone know the cost?
Thanks!
