Indicators and Sending Units

Sending Unit for the Water Temperature




Illustration 4g00509920

Sending Unit for the Water Tempartaure

(1) Connection

(2) Bushing

(3) Bulb

The sending unit for the water temperature is an electrical resistance. The sending unit for the water temperature changes the value of the resistance according to the temperature which bulb (3) feels.

The sending unit is in a series circuit with the electrical indicator. When the temperature is high, the resistance is high. This makes the indicator have a high reading.

The sending unit must contact the coolant. If the coolant level is too low because of a sudden loss of coolant while the engine is running or because the level is too low before starting the engine, the sending unit will not work correctly.

Sending Unit for the Oil Pressure

Sending Unit for the Oil Pressure

(1) Connection

(2) Bushing

The sending unit for oil pressure is an electrical resistance. The sending unit for oil pressure has a material which changes electrical resistance according to pressure which the unit feels.

The sending unit for oil pressure is in a series circuit with the electrical indicator. As the pressure on the sending unit changes, the reading on the indicator changes in the same way.

Electric Hour Meter

Hour Meter Wiring Diagram

(1) Electrical hour meter

(2) Pressure switch

(3) Alternator wire or battery wire

Electric hour meter (1) measures the clock hours that the engine operates. The hour meter activates when pressure switch (2) closes. Pressure switch (2) closes the circuit from the positive terminal on the alternator or the battery when the engine oil pressure is above approximately 40 kPa (6 psi).

Electric Tachometer Wiring




Illustration 7g00509923

(1) Magnetic pickup

(2) Terminal connections (terminal 7 and 8 on standby governor control)

(3) Tachometer

(4) Ground connection (governor control chassis ground)

(5) Governor control terminal strip

(6) Wiring connections (second tachometer circuit)

(7) All wire must be 22AWG shielded cable or larger

(8) Dual speed switch terminal strip

(9) Ground connection to the engine
