| Subject: | EGT sensor installation location |
Hi! I don't profess to be any authority but the locations are already
welded into my new 914.
Forward two positions are on the outside of the bend slightly outboard
approx 3" from the head.
Aft positions are on the inside of the bend again slightly outboard 5"
from the head. But the type of my sensors puts a probe right into the
gas stream, yours may be clamp on and therefore different.
Regards
Bob Harrison G-PTAG Europa being changed from Jabiru 3300 to Rotax 914.

Subject: RotaxEngines-List: EGT sensor installation location
Looking at the 2 attached pics of the left and right side of my engine,
what would be the best place to install the EGT sensors.
Just thought I'd get some input from anyone who might know if there is a
best way to do it. There are 4 of them for my GRT EIS.
Thanks

Brian,
You might consider consulting the 912s install manual
page 7-1:
70 cm (2.75in) from the exhaust flange
also see page 10-1 in same book
70 cm, 2.76 in downstream from exhaust flange
The bayonet should clamped so that the its tip is in the center of the pipe.
This is the place you should have looked first since it is the gold-standard.
If someone offers a different opinion, they should have a good reason, and
have a new scale of temps at that location so you know how to intrepret
the data.

Bob,
Is your exhaust system the standard Europa FWF kit?
It is probably my retched memory playing tricks again, but I thought
the 914 routinely came with 2 EGT bungs.
The 912 kit of course comes with none from either Rotax or Europa
as Rotax does not require it. I have the two I welded in (2.75" or is
it 2.76") from the flange and would welcome two more if I had the
downtime to get them in.

I have an Allegro 2000 LSA with a 912UL. 50 hours TT
When I switch off the auxiliary electrical fuel pump the instrument reading drops
to nearly 0 before coming up again very slowly but doesnt read quite 0.2 with
the mechanical pump. This happens in flight.
On the ground during or before run up the reading drops less to about 0.15 with
mechanical pump only. seem awful low though ??
Is this a reason for concern ??
Thanks

Please give us more details :
- What instrument ? Fuel flow, fuel pressure ?
- What type instrument ? Dial gauge ? EIS ?
- What units are you using ?
- Where are the sensor(s) located ? What type ?
- What fuel supply architeture ? Return line ? Low wing tanks ? High
wing tanks ? Fuselage tank?
- What type of fuel lines, metal, hose ? Length ?
- Etc..
