7. Electric Temperature Gauge (dia. 52 mm)
7.1 General Informations
The electrical oil temperature gauge has been designed for land-bound vehicles or stationary systems only
(exception: motorcycles).
The instrument has an analog temperature display graduated in °C or °F.
Temperature sensors of the following types, adapted to the indicator temperature range, can be used:
negative earth,
insulated earth,
negative earth with warning contact.
The lamp socket is clipped in.
To replace the light bulb, carefully, with the thump,
push the lamp holder out to the side.

Designation of function
Movement: System Ke (90°)
(Turning magnet movement for ratio indication, maximum pointer travel 90°)
The temperature indicator applies the
resisance measurement principle. A sensor
containing a resistor with strong temperatu-
re dependence (PTC) converts the tempe-
rature of the fliud to a corresponding
resistance value.
A turning magnet ratio measuring
movement measures this resistance value. Dial
This value is displayed by a pointer moving Pointer
over a dial graduated in temperature units.
The turning magnet movement for ratio in- Magnet
dication comprises three stationary coils Compensation (turning)
wound at 90° against each other, and a ro- resistor
tating permanent magnet disk in these co- Coil
ils. The coils are connected to determine a (stationary)
ratio, so that the instrument is insensitive to
on-board voltage fluctuations.
This maens that the pointer travel is only
determined by the magnitude of the current
+ S
flowing through the measuring system.
A magnetic shield prevents effects of
external magnetic fields, indication errors
due to temperature changes are corrected
by a compensating resistor. A dropping
resistor is used to adapt the measuring Magnetic
movement to higher operating voltages shield
(e. g. 24V).

7.3 Temperature Sensors
The temperature sensor needed to operate the instrument is not included with the instrument.
The following temperature sensors (see data sheets for sensors), adapted to the instrument indicating range,
can be used:
Negative earth Insulated earth Negative earth Dip-stick sensor
with warning contact insulated earth
G (S) WK
G (S)
G (S)
G (S)
WK = Warning contact
Electric Oil Temperature Gauge
The sensor is installed in the oil circuit at a position specified by the vehicle
manufacturer (e.g. oil drain plug).
A dip-stick sensor can be used instead of the standard dip-stick (original).
The dip-stick sensor can be used for internal tube guide diameters from 6mm to
15mm.
Electric Engine Coolant Temperature Gauge
The sensor is installed in the engine coolant circuit at a position specified by the
vehicle manufacturer (e.g. temperature warning switch) or in the coolant hose.
For installation in a coolant hose (28mm dia. to 35mm dia.) use installation kit, or-
der No. X11-323-003-011.
Install in coolant hose just ahead of the radiator inlet opening.

If the connection thread is cylindrical, a sealing washer or a sealing ring made of copper must be fitted.
The values mentioned in the following table foe the maximum tightening torque (Nm max.) refer exclusively to the
load-bearing capacity of temperature sensors.
