Oil Temperature Sensor

The oil temperature sensor needs to be installed
according to the directions of the engine
manufacturer. Dynon Avionics sells oil
temperature sensors with both 5/8-18 UNF
(Dynon P/N 100409-001) and 1/8-27 NPT
(Dynon P/N 100409-000) threads. Ensure that you have the
right sensor for your engine. Using a crush washer (not
provided) between the sensor and the engine case, tighten the
sensor according to your engine manufacturer’s
recommendations.

First, mount the fuel pressure se
using an Adel clamp or other secure method. The fuel
pressure sensor must not be installed directly to the
engine due to potential vibration problems. Next,
connect the fuel sensor to the engine using approp
hoses and fittings. Its pressure port has a 1/8-27 NPT pi
to connect to the pressure port on your engine. Locate the correct fuel pressure port for your
engine. This port must have a pressure fitting with a restrictor hole in it. This restrictor hole
ensures that, in the event of a sensor failure, fuel leakage rate is minimized, allowing time fo
emergency landing.
