Engine Alarms and Instrumentation Digital Alarms alarm system. This system is configured to turn on an instrument panel mounted indicator (“MIL” or “Check If, for any reason, one or more of these sensors or Engine”) light, and, optionally, an audible (“buzzer”) associated wiring malfunctions, the ECM’s built in alarm to warn the operator of engine problems.
Engine Alarms and Instrumentation Instrumentation IMPORTANT: Engines are designed to use both buzzers and MIL lamps. Buzzers are Boat builders use many different types of instrumen- use to alert operators of severe problems, tation in their boats. The operator should understand his instrumentation and note any abnormal operating such as: Low oil pressure, high engine conditions.
SSVEC Fuse and Relay Enclosure All relays and fuses are located in the Severe Service Vessel Electrical Center (SSVEC). This enclosure is capable of withstanding direct water spray. Additional- ly, it contains a Goretex vent which allows humid vapors to escape without allowing water in. www.MarinePowerUSA.com...
