Exhaust gas temperature amplifier inline unit
The Exhaust gas temperature amplifier is for use with the Exhaust gas temperature sensor.
The inline unit amplifies and compensates for the non-linearity of the small voltage generated by the thermocouple.
The K-type connector of the thermocouple connects to the yellow plug. The inline unit has a voltage offset which is required to be removed by the monitoring systems settings values (see below)
Fitting
- Ensure the K-type plug of the thermocouple is fitted into the slot sockets on the unit and not the larger rounded sockets option.
- Mount the unit away from sources of heat such as the exhaust
- Lock wire the K-type connectors together
Operation
The settings for the Amplifier are determined by the temperature to voltage characteristic (the in line unit has a 1V offset, therefore the values for 0V and 5V are adjusted outside the operating range)
Cougardata Settings values
Max DegC = 1103
Min DegC = -290
Diagnostic Output Values
- In normal operation 1.0 to 4.5 Volts
- Room temperature 1.1 to 1.2 volts
- Open Circuit ( no sensor ) >5 volts
- Short circuit ( damaged sensor ) 1 to 1.4 volts
If the sensor responds slowly then this would indicate not being in the gas flow or a damaged sensor.
Systems compatible with
- Cougardata recording standard logger
- Cougardata XD1 Display
- Cougardata minilogger
Applications
- Motorcycle
- Kart
- Hovercraft
