ADMIRAL
CONTROL
PANEL
UNIVERSAL offers two optional panels. Refer
to
the
instruction page that applies to the
panel
you
purchased.
ADMIRAL
PANn
This manually-operated control panel
is
equipped with a
Key
Switch
and
RPM gauge with
an
ELAPSED TIME meter
which measures the engine's running time
in
hours and
in
1110
hoUIS. The panel also includes a WJ'JER TEMPERA·
TURE gauge which indicates water temperature in degrees
Fahrenheit, an OIL PRESSURE gauge which measures
the
engine's oil pressure in pounds per square
inch,
and a DC
control circuit VOLTAGE gauge which measures the sys-
tem's voltage. All gauges are illuminated when the key
switch is turned
on
and remain illuminated while the engine
is
in
operation. The panel also contains two rubber-hooted
pushbuttons, one for
PREHEPJ
and one for
START.
When the engine
is
shut down with
the
Key
Switch turned
off, the water temperature gauge
will
continue
to
register
the
last temperature reading indicated
by
the gauge before elec-
trical power was turned off. The oil pressure gauge will fall
to
zero when the
Key
Switch is turned off. The temperature
gauge
will
once again register
the
engine's true temperature
when electrical power is restored
to
the gauge.
A separate alarm buzzer with harness
is
supplied with every
Admiral Panel. The installer is responsible
for
electrically
connecting
the
buzzer
to
the four-pin connection on the
engine's electrical harness. The installer is also responsible
for
installing
the
buzzer
in
a location where
it
will
be
dry
and
where
it
will be audible
to
the operator should
it
sound while
the engine
is
running. The buzzer will sound when
the
igni-
tion
key
is
turned on
and
should silence when the engine has
started and the
en~ine's
oil pressure rises above
15
psi.
