If I were to install a Temp Overlimit Switch, this is exactly where I would put it. Perhaps Champion has already included one on their units?bobandcat wrote:
I thought of the TEMP LIMIT SWITCH as I was was writing my last post.
Ideas from Professor95, MrWizzard or anyone else on how to set up the temp limit switch to turn off the generator would be appreciated.
The simplest approach would be to use a normally open (NO) sensor that closes at a specified temperature (180 degrees would be good). Ground one terminal on the switch and run the other terminal to the low oil cut off sensor on the engine. An appropriate normally open switch may be a little hard to locate. They are prominate in heating systems so a trip to HVAC supplier may be necessary to find what you want.
