The TM3 is used to shut engines down if a oil or temp fault develops while the engine is unattended. (to stop engines after a preset time, see the TM5 protection timer).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Low Oil & High Temperature Shutdown Control Unit for Stationary Engines

 

Features:

- TEMPERATURE SHUTDOWN.  If the engine temperature goes higher than the temperature set in the TM3 the engine will stop, unit comes standard with a 'EASY FIT' heat sensor.

- START BYPASS.  When starting the engine, the TM3 has a 60 seconds of bypass time to allow the engine and pump pressures to stabilize.

- FLEXIBLE STOPPING OUTPUTS.The TM3 is flexible enough to stop most engines. It has two stopping output modes. Either stopping Option A.- where the power is normally ON while the engine runs and then OFF in an emergency (ideal for controlling fuel solenoids). Or stopping Option B- where the power is normally OFF while the engine runs, then ON for 15 seconds in an emergency. When used in association with an inexpensive slave relay, output B is ideal for controlling heavy decompression solenoids or electric stopping circuits.

- START THE UNIT. The TM3 can be manually started by pressing a button on the unit or wired to come on via the ignitions start position

- LOW OIL SHUTDOWN INPUT. The TM3 has a stopping input that requires a signal to ground on low oil pressure. An inexpensive oil light sender is used (car type) or if the engine already has an oil light, it is simply tagged onto the existing oil sender (not used for oil gauges sensors).

- AUXILIARY STOPPING INPUT. The TM3 has a spare stopping input used for any purpose that switches to ground on a fault, such as a Murphy high-low water pressure switch on a water pump or similar (see pricing for a pressure switch).
