humidity controller question


 
from the directions:

"the load must not exceed the output contact capacity, or it might result in machine damage and cause a fire"

the only listing for anything related to "output contact capacity" is"

"relay contact point current: AC 5A/220V"
 
"relay contact point current: AC 5A/220V" I think it was originally thought to be 5Amp/120VAC
That's even better as that means 10 AMP/120VAC. The humidifier you specked has a draw that is probably less the 1 amp*.
I sent an email to Crane-Tech Support to confirm.
*From another website the wattage is listed as 38 Watts. That would mean @0.32 Amp

so I should be fine wiring it:

extension cord -> controller -> outlet -> humidifier
 
I got my controller yesterday, and will try to find some time making the connections in a day or two. I'll take a couple of pictures for you all.
