Wednesday 4th March 2020 – Fuel Flow Transducer

Now the transducer is mounted the fuel lines are run from the 4-way connector to the unit and the output line is run to the ‘T’. At each stage of the installation the fuel line is purged with fuel to ensure no debris is present that could block the fuel flow to and from the unit. Once the fuel hose is connected and secured with pipe clips, fire resistant sleeving is added and secured into place with wire lock.
The 4-way and ‘T’ connectors can be positioned adjacent to each other allowing for a neater installation.
And the fuel lines are covered with fire and heat resistant sleeving and wire locked into position.
The finished installation with the fuel pressure switch just visible at the bottom of the photo.

So just enough time in the day to re-assemble everything before departing for Vienna leaving the wiring to the EMS and test runs for when I return. No rush to finish as the runway is still sopping wet at Maypole and there’s more rain to come!
