- Complete description of the product (H1: anodized connection online for water temperature sensor - precision and telemetry reliability)
Watch for the health of your engine in real time thanks to anodized water temperature sensor connection. This high quality aluminum compact adapter is the centerpiece to prolate a clean temperature sensor (standard thread for probes Alfano, MyCHRON, AIM, etc.) directly on the liquid cooling circuit of your box with box (kz) or monovite (Rotax Max, Iame X30).
Accurately machined, this fitting displays an outside diameter of 18.5 mm at its sealing flanges, making it the perfect ally for the standard water pipes displaying an internal diameter of 16 to 17 mm. Its 14 mm inside diameter guarantees an optimal fluid stream without creating any load loss in the cooling circuit. Thanks to its anodized finish, it resists perfectly with corrosion, anti-tartar additives and high temperatures of the engine fluid. Its total length of 84 mm allows easy integration into the ducts of hoses, all for a featherweight of only 76 grams so as not to weigh up your system.
- The trick in Michel (the corner of the expert)
* "Hi have the stopwatch! Keep an eye on the water temperature, it's the life of your 2-stroke engine. If you ride too cold (under 45 ° C), the engine does not give its power; if you pass the 60-65 ° C, you risk a tightening or a tightening Destructive detonation. This small anodized aluminum fitting is perfect for putting your probe cleanly on the hose that goes from the cylinder head to the radiator, and with its 76 grams, he knows how to be forgotten !
My indispensable mechanical trick for installation: teflon and the sense of flow !
First rule: always install this fitting on the upper hose, the one that comes out of the cylinder head of the motor to go up the radiator. This is where water is the hottest, and it's this critical value you need to read on your screen Alfano or Mychron, not that of the cooled water that returns to the engine.
Second small tip: When screwing your brass probe into the threaded hole of the fitting, turn 2 or 3 teflon ribbon towers (or a drop of Loctite type sealing paste) on the thread of the sensor. Aluminum and brass do not like to work dry under the pressure of the hot circuit. Tighten firmly to the manual key without abusing so as not to make the fillet of the anodized aluminum. To attach the 16/17 mm hoses on each side, use good ear necklaces or stainless steel serflex necklaces. A water leak at 15,000 turns, it's the shower assured for the back driver and the carpet engine! "*
- Mounting & Connection Guide: Step by Step
1.Vidange and tracking the circuit:5 min.Put the kart on his stand trolley. Clearly drain the liquid cooling circuit. Locate the right section of the upper hose that comes out of the engine cylinder head towards the radiator.
2.Coupe dURITY:3 min.Using a sharp cutter or curl, cleanly cut off the water hose (ideally 16/17 mm internal diameter). Remove a section equivalent to the central part of the fitting so as not to create superflower.
3.Installation fitting and probe:5 min.Follow the Tip in Michel: Sealing the thread of your temperature sensor with Teflon, then screw it to the anodized fitting. Slip your two clamps on the hoses, then insert the 18.5 mm connector on each side.
Testing and watering:5 min.Position the necklaces just behind the outpacement of the fitting and tighten them firmly. Fill in the circuit with your coolant (or demineralized water according to regulation). Press the hoses in hand to hunt the air, close the radiator cap and visually check the total absence of oozing.
- SEO FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
Q: Is this fitting compatible with housing probes Alfano and Mychron ?
A: Yes, quite. This anodized aluminum fitting has a standardized tapping designed to accommodate the majority of the market temperature probes (such as the AIM MyCHron M10 probes or sensors Alfano).
Q: Can this fitting be used on internal diameter hoses less than 16 mm ?
A: The outer diameter of the tips of this fitting is calibrated to 18.5 mm. It is specifically recommended for flexible water pipes displaying an internal hole of 16 or 17 mm to ensure perfect interlocking without forcing exaggerately. Trying to insert it into a hose of 14 mm or less could tear the internal fabric of the rubber hose or silicone under the effect of the voltage.
Q: Why prefer an anodized aluminum fitting rather than plastic ?
A: Anodized aluminum offers superior structural rigidity under the clamping stress of metal necklaces and resists intense vibrations of the karting engine. In addition, the thermal conductivity of the aluminum allows a better homogeneity of the temperature around the probe for an ultra-precise reading of your data on the dashboard.
