1.9 FUEL PRES. TRANSDUCER INST
Using the provided 'Adell' clamp, mount the transducer to a stationary
location, such as the engine mount or firewall, then safety wire it to the
clamp. Insure the safety wire does not contact any wiring on the
transducer. Connect the transducer pressure port using the appropriate
aircraft grade hose and fittings. The transducer has a 1/8 NPT external
thread to accommodate many plumbing options. Use only aircraft grade
fittings and hoses rated for use on this application. Connect to the DPU
harness, using a hirschmann connector, as shown in ‘APPENDIX B:
DPU P1 Connector Harness Fabrication’.
FOR CARBURETED ENGINES, the fuel pressure transducer hose
should be installed in a position to monitor carburetor inlet pressure.
FOR INJECTED ENGINES, the fuel pressure transducer hose should
be installed in a position to monitor pressure at the fuel inlet to the fuel
flow servo controller (or throttle body) assembly, NOT at the fuel flow
divider.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
DO NOT: mount transducer directly on engine.
DO NOT: mount the transducer where corrosive or conductive
fluids may contact it during operation or maintenance. Cover
during any washdown operation.
DO NOT: solder onto terminal lugs of the transducer.
DO NOT: dent or deform the transducer in any way or improper
operation will result
