Default Oven Build Questions

Hi all,

I happened to latch on to a stainless steel blanket warmer (seems to be insulated very good..at 250 the outside is only warm to the touch) at the hospital I work at and would like to convert it to a PC oven. It is about 5 cubic ft and presently has one of those silicon/kapton heating elements on the bottom and can only reach about 250 degrees. If I was to get one 2000 watt bake element to replace this one and the following parts would they all work together for what I am trying to do here? Would one element heat this to 400+ degrees? Thanks for any and all help with this.

1-universal 1/32 DIN PID temp controller
1-40 amp SSR
1-K-type thermo-couple
(all the above from Auber instruments)

1-2000 watt bake element

Brian
