Oil Pressure Sensor Dimensions
Dimensions shown as in. [mm]
•
If sourcing an alternate sensor the following specifications must be met:
•
The sensor must have a range of 0 – 150 PSIG (0 to 10 Bar).
•
The sensor resistance range must be 10 – 180
Ω
based on the above limits respectively.
•
The sensor must be electrically equivalent to VDO p/n 360 430.
7.5.2 Installation Instructions
1. Apply thread sealant to the sensor.
2. Thread the sensor finger tight into the location from the application considerations.
•
The sensor is easily damaged so take caution when installing the sensor.
3. Once complete, torque the sensor to a maximum of 30 N•m using a 17mm wrench.
4. The electrical connection points are M4 knurled nuts and the electrical connectors required are #10
insulated ring terminals.
7.6 Exhaust Gas Temperature Sensor (EGT)
The exhaust gas temperature sensor is an optional sensor available from GAC. The engine exhaust temperature
sensor is monitored by the AFR for engine protection in the event of a high exhaust temperature condition during
operation. This threshold will cause a de-rate in throttle % and will allow the system to recover once the
temperature has returned to the normal operating region. If the temperature does not decrease over a set time
interval the AFR will shut the engine down. These limits and thresholds can be calibrated within the AFR
controller using SmartVU. A representation of a typical thermocouple is shown in the following figure.
