2.6 Install the Pressure Transducers:

Install only the Pressure Transducers applicable for your
configuration.

A. Torque Pressure Transducer Installation:

Torque Pressure Transducer Installation:

Some engines have a High and Low Torque pressure ports. These engines will
require two pressure transducer to be installed. The MVP system can interface with
many different types of pressure transducers.

Find a convenient location on the firewall or a mounting bracket and mount the pres-
sure transducer(s) with the clamp provided. Do not mount the pressure
transducer(s) to an engine baffle or directly onto the engine with
the transducer supported by the threads. Vibration can cause the
threads to break, resulting in loss of engine fluid. The pressure transducer
is equipped with a 1/8" NPT male port. This port can be adapted to any
pressure line. Use only a flexible hose and fittings suitable for aircraft use.
Route a flexible fuel pressure line from the primary torque pressure pick up
point to the pressure transducer and tighten all fittings. Do not use the case of the pressure transducer
to tighten the pressure fittings.

Some fittings you may want to consider using are listed above.

Pressure Transducer:
PT-100GA for 0 to 120 psi
and PT-300GA for 0 to
300 psi.

B. Oil Pressure Transducer Installation:

Oil Pressure Transducer Installation:

Find a convenient location on the firewall or a
mounting bracket and mount the pressure transducer
with the clamp provided. Do not mount the
pressure transducer directly on the engine with the transducer supported by
threads. Vibration can cause the threads to break, resulting in loss of engine oil. The
pressure transducer is equipped with an 1/8" NPT male port. This port can be adapted
to any oil pressure line. Use only a flexible hose and fittings suitable for aircraft use.
Route a flexible oil pressure line from the primary oil pressure pick up point to the
pressure transducer and tighten all fittings. Do not use the case of the pressure
transducer to tighten the pressure fittings.
