ENGINE INSTRUMENTS (Continued)
OIL TEMPERATURE (OIL °F)
The oil temperature sensor is installed in the engine oil filter adapter
and provides a signal to the engine display that is processed and
shown as oil temperature.
Engine oil temperature is shown on all EIS pages. The instrument
range is 0 to 250°F with digital information range from 30 to 265°F. The
instrument has a yellow band from 0 to 75°F (low caution), a green
band from 75 to 220°F (normal operating range), a yellow band from
220 to 240°F (high caution) and a red band from 240 to 265°F (high
warning). A white pointer indicates actual oil temperature.
When oil temperature is in the red band, 240 to 265°F, the pointer and
OIL TEMP turn red and flash to show oil temperature is higher than the
limit. A red-X is displayed when the instrument is invalid or out of the
data range.
EXHAUST GAS TEMPERATURE (EGT °F) (if installed)
A thermocouple installed in the exhaust down pipe measures EGT and
provides a signal to the engine display that is processed and shown on
the EIS ENGINE page by the EGT °F vertical tape display and digital
information. The tape indicator range is from 1000 to 1600°F, and the
digital information range is from 1000 to 2000°F. The white pointer
indicates actual EGT temperature. Red digits are shown for values less
than 0°F and more than 2000°F. A red-X is displayed when the
instrument is invalid or out of the data range.
