3.1.2 ANALOGUE SENSORS, MPU, CAN
NOTE: It is VERY important that terminal 11 (sensor common) is soundly connected to an
earth point on the ENGINE BLOCK, not within the control panel, and must be a sound
electrical connection to the sensor bodies. This connection MUST NOT be used to provide an
earth connection for other terminals or devices. The simplest way to achieve this is to run a
SEPARATE earth connection from the system earth star point, to terminal 11 directly, and not
use this earth for other connections.
NOTE: If you use PTFE insulating tape on the sensor thread when using earth return
sensors, ensure you do not insulate the entire thread, as this prevents the sensor body from
being earthed via the engine block.
NOTE: For further details on connection to electronic engines, refer to DSE Publication:
