See Fig. 88 and 89.
-
location:
oil pump housing
-
wiring connection for instrument:
The sensor cable is approx. 3 m long and has 3 leads. The
Black
lead is not
to be connected and has no function. The
Red
lead from the sensor has to
be connected to the positive bus via a fuse or circuit breaker. The
White
lead
(output signal) has to be connected directly to the instrument. See also the
relevant instructions of the instrument supplier/aircraft manufacturer for
correct connection and wiring.
◆
NOTE:
The sensor cable can be modified in its length according to the
installation situation, e.g. shortened or extended. For extension
an appropriate, commercially available cable can be used. A
resistance cable or similar is not necessary.
-
wire gauge:
stranded wire, 0,5 mm

(AWG 20)
-
cable length:
3 m (118 in.)
-
operating temperature range:
min.: - 40 °C (-40 °F)
max.: + 125 °C (+ 257 °F)
-
grounding:
via engine block/airframe ground
-
output signal:
In contrary to the oil pressure sensor offered up to now,
which was providing the signal on the basis of a sensor resistance variation, the
new oil pressure sensor (1) operates on basis of a current variation. This has
to be taken into account for the selection of the appropriate cockpit instrument.
■
CAUTION:
The graph current over pressure has been determined, and is
effective at the following conditions only (see fig. 89).
ambient temperature:
20 °C (68 °F)
tolerance:
max. ± 3%
-
tightening torque:
15 Nm (98 in.lb) and
