1.8 SAFETY DEVICES
Safety devices, such as circuit breakers, fuses, and
safety switches, protect system components from
damage.
The AC generator, solid state battery charger, fuel
heater, high water temperature, safety relay, total time
meter and intake heater are protected by circuit
breakers. If a safety device opens and there is an
interruption of electrical current, the electronic governor
module will be de−energized, which will also
de−energize the fuel solenoid, interrupt the fuel flow to
the engine and stop the engine.
Unsafe Condition
Low engine lubricating oil pressure
High engine cooling water temperature
Low coolant
Excessive current draw by the safety re-
lay, fuel heater, water temperature gauge,
oil pressure gauge or total time meter
Excessive current draw by the electronic
governor module
Excessive current draw on intake heater
circuit
Excessive current draw on 230 volt feed
circuit
Excessive current draw by load
T-343
In units with auto restart, the engine, engine control
devices, and engine monitoring devices are protected
by the auto restart module, low coolant sensor (if
equipped), circuit breaker, low oil pressure switch, and
high water temperature switch. These safety devices
monitor system operating conditions and open a set of
electrical contacts when an unsafe condition occurs. If a
safety device opens and there is an interruption of
electrical current, the electronic governor module will be
de−energized, which will also de−energize the fuel
solenoid, interrupt the fuel flow to the engine and stop
the engine.
De−energizing the fuel solenoid shuts off the fuel supply
to the engine; thus stopping the engine. Safety device
specifications are provided in Table 1-4.
