Thermo-switch at cylinder head
The thermo-switch at the cylinder head serves to monitor the
generator temperature.
Fig. 4.3.4-2: Thermo-switch at exhaust elbow
Thermo-switch at water-cooled exhaust elbow
This thermo switch is located at the water-cooled exhaust
elbow union and serves to monitor the temperature of the
fresh water cooling system. It takes a measurement at the
hottest spot, since the combustion gases are guided from the
cylinder head for the exhaust elbow.
