C. Oil Pressure Transducer Installation:

Oil Pressure Transducer Installation:

Find a convenient location on the firewall or a
bracket and mount the pressure transducer with the
clamp provided. The oil pressure line does not have
to be routed into the cabin area, although you will
need access on the cabin side of the firewall to tighten the pressure transducer clamp
nut. Do not mount the pressure transducer to an engine baffle or directly on
the engine with the transducer supported by an adapter or fitting. Vibration can
cause the adapter to break, resulting in loss of engine oil. The pressure transducer is
equipped with an 1/8" NPT male port. This port can be adapted to any oil pressure
line. Use only a flexible hose and fittings suitable for aircraft use. Route a flexible oil
pressure line from the primary oil pressure pickup point to the pressure transducer and
tighten all fittings. Do not use the case of the pressure transducer to tighten the
pressure fittings. Maintain any restrictive orifice currently in the system.

D. Fuel Pressure Transducer Installation:

Fuel Pressure Transducer Installation:

Find a convenient location on the firewall or a bracket
and mount the pressure transducer with the clamp
provided. The fuel pressure line does not have to be
routed into the cabin area although you will need access
on the cabin side of the firewall to tighten the pressure
transducer clamp nut. Do not mount the pressure transducer to an engine baffle
or directly onto the engine with the transducer supported by an adapter or
fitting. Vibration can cause the adapter to break, resulting in loss of engine fuel. The
pressure transducer is equipped with a 1/8" NPT male port. This port can be adapted to
any fuel pressure line. Use only a flexible hose and fittings suitable for aircraft use.
Route a flexible fuel pressure line from the primary fuel pressure pick up point to the
pressure transducer and tighten all fittings. Do not use the case of the pressure
transducer to tighten the pressure fittings. Maintain any restrictive
orifice currently in the system.

* Some fittings you may want to consider using are listed above.

The PT-100GA Pressure
Transducer is used on
most engines for pressures
up to 120 psi.
