Thermostatic Pilot Valve
This valve is used to feel engine coolant
temperature. If the coolant temperature goes above the
limit of the thermostatic pilot valve, the valve opens and
causes engine shutdown through the fuel shutoff circuit
of the protective system.
Water Temperature Contactor
The contactor switch for water temperature is
installed in the water manifold housing (below the
regulator housing).
This is normally where the
thermostatic pilot valve is installed. No adjustment to the
temperature range of the contactor can be made. The
element feels the temperature of the coolant and then
operates a micro switch (in the contactor) when the
coolant temperature is too high. The element must be in
contact with the coolant to operate correctly. If the cause
for the engine being too hot is because of low coolant
level or no coolant, the contactor switch will not operate.
The switch is connected to an alarm system and

A flyweight controlled, speed sensing valve spool is used
to feel engine speed. The speed sensing valve spool is
moved by flyweights which are turned by a drive shaft.
The drive shaft is driven by the engine camshaft through
an accessory drive group that has an oil reservoir for the
