DIESEL ENGINE PROTECTION & MONITORING
Since the early 1980's, Flight Systems has produced equipment used throughout the world which provides the highest level of protection for large and medium diesel and natural gas powered engines. The Engine Saver has applications in mining, marine, construction, railway, irrigation, military and power generation. It monitors a combination of pressure, temperature and RPM on 8, 12 and 16 cylinder diesel or gas engines, and detects signs of trouble before damage occurs, long before an attentive operator could detect it on the gauges - and without false alarms.
Overspeed- Overheating
- Clogged breathers
- Worn pump impellers

- Radiator cap loose
- Scored cylinder
- Loss of coolant
- Low coolant
- De-aeration baffle fatigue
- Broken/worn rings
- Hole in a piston
- Loss of oil
- Partially blocked oil or water pumps
- Fuel dilution
The Engine saver has many useful features. These include:
- Built-in status panel, which gives a complete picture of the engine operating condition and fault location, even after shutdown.
- Auxiliary analog outputs for trend analysis and overhaul/maintenance forecasting via radio data link and/or on-board recording.
- SPDT heavy duty output relay permits a wide choice of alarm/shutdown options including pre-shutdown warning.
