1.10 Engine Instrumentation
The helm station is equipped with a set of engine instruments
and alarms. These instruments allow the pilot to monitor the
engine operational conditions. Close observation of these
instruments allows the pilot to operate the engines at the most
efficient level and could save the engines from serious costly
damage.
Your boat is equipped with electronic diesel engines and elec-
tronic display systems that monitor all of your engine func-
tions. Typically, these systems provide complete vessel in-
formation on a single display. They continuously monitor and
report detailed information that can be displayed in a digital
or simulated analog format.
The instrumentation is unique to the type of engines installed
on your Wellcraft. Some or all of the following gauges may
be present.
Tachometer
The tachometer displays the speed of the engine in revolu-
tions per minute (RPM). This speed is not the boat speed nor
necessarily the speed of the propeller.
NEVER EXCEED THE MAXIMUM RECOMMENDED
OPERATION RPM OF THE ENGINE. MAINTAINING
MAXIMUM, OR CLOSE TO MAXIMUM RPM FOR
EXTENDED PERIODS CAN REDUCE THE LIFE OF
THE ENGINE.
Temperature Gauge
The temperature gauge indicates the temperature of the en-
gine cooling system. A sudden increase in the temperature
could signal a blocked cooling passage or a water pump mal-
function.
CONTINUED OPERATION OF AN OVERHEATED
ENGINE CAN RESULT IN ENGINE SEIZURE. IF AN
UNUSUALLY HIGH TEMPERATURE READING
OCCURS, SHUT THE ENGINE OFF IMMEDIATELY.
THEN INVESTIGATE AND CORRECT THE PROBLEM.
Oil Pressure Gauge
The oil pressure gauge monitors the engine lubrication sys-
tem pressure. The oil pressure indicated when the engine is
new is usually the reference for normal oil pressure for that
engine. A drop in oil pressure is a possible indication of oil
pump problems, a leak or fuel diluted oil.
Fuel Gauge
The fuel gauge indicates the amount of fuel in the fuel tank.
This gauge is merely a relative indication of the available
fuel supply and not a calibrated instrument.
Voltmeter
The voltmeter displays the voltage for the battery banks and
the charging system. The normal voltage is 11 to 12.5 volts
with the engines off, and 13 to 14.5 volts with the engines
running.
Hour Meter
The hour meter keeps a record of the operating time for the
engine. The hour meters are located in the helm instrument
panel, in the engine compartment, or integrated into the elec-
tronic display system.
Rudder Position Indicator (Optional)
The rudder position indicator shows the current position of
the rudders. The rudder indicator gauge is not a calibrated
instrument and is intended to show the approximate position
of the rudders, primarily as a reference when maneuvering in
tight quarters. Wind and currents will cause a deviation in
the rudder indicator reading.
Fuel Management (Optional)
Fuel management systems are optional and could be installed
on your boat. The fuel management gauge is used to monitor
the gallons per hour and also total gallons used. If you have
a fuel management system installed on your boat, please re-
fer to the engine or fuel management manual for information
on that system.
Engine Alarms
Most inboard engines are equipped with an audible alarm
system mounted in the helm area that monitors selected criti-
cal engine systems. The alarm will sound if one of these
systems begins to fail. Refer to the engine owner’s manual
for information on the alarms installed with your engine.
Typically, the alarm will sound in the event of: low engine
oil pressure and high engine water temperature. It could also
sound in the event of: excessive transmission temperature or
low transmission oil pressure and excessive water in the fuel
filters if your engines and filters are equipped with these sen-
sors.
