4. Opsætning og installation

Proper installation is crucial for the accurate and safe operation of your pyrometer gauge. If you are not experienced with automotive electrical systems, it is recommended to seek professional assistance.

4.1 Pakkeindhold:

• VDO Vision Style Electrical Pyrometer Gauge (Model 310-151)
• Temperature Sender (Model 323-892)
• Wiring Harness (12-foot lead)
• Spin-Lok™ Mounting Hardware
• Light Diffusers (Red and Green)

4.2 Mounting the Gauge:

1. Select a suitable location on your dashboard or panel for the 2-1/16" (52mm) diameter gauge.
2. Cut a clean, circular hole of the appropriate size.
3. Insert the gauge into the opening.
4. Secure the gauge using the VDO Spin-lok™ mounting hardware from the rear of the panel. Tighten firmly but do not overtighten.

4.3 Elektriske forbindelser:

The gauge utilizes standard 0.25" spade connectors for simplified wiring.

1. Strømtilslutning: Connect the positive (+) terminal of the gauge to a switched 12V power source (e.g., ignition circuit) using the wiring harness.
2. Jordforbindelse: Connect the negative (-) terminal of the gauge to a reliable chassis ground.
3. Afsenderforbindelse: Connect the signal wire from the pyrometer sender (323-892) to the designated sender input terminal on the gauge. Ensure the sender is correctly installed in the exhaust system or other temperature measurement point according to its specific instructions.
4. Belysning: Connect the illumination wire to your vehicle's dashboard lighting circuit to enable backlighting when headlights are on.
5. Installation af diffusor: If desired, place the red or green light diffuser over the gauge's light source before final assembly to change the illumination color.

Always double-check all connections before restoring power to the vehicle.

5. Betjening

Once properly installed and powered, the VDO pyrometer gauge will display the temperature from its sender unit.

5.1 Reading the Gauge:

• The gauge displays temperature in Fahrenheit (°F).
• The numerical markings on the dial are multiplied by 10 (Fx10). For example, a reading of '25' indicates 250°F, and '165' indicates 1650°F.
• The orange needle will sweep across the dial to indicate the current temperature.

5.2 Illumination:

The gauge's dial will illuminate when connected to the vehicle's lighting circuit. The color of the illumination can be customized using the included red or green diffusers during installation.

6. Vedligeholdelse

The VDO pyrometer gauge is designed for long-term reliability with minimal maintenance.

• Rensning: Wipe the gauge face and bezel with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the finish or clear lens.
• Forbindelser: Periodically check all electrical connections for tightness and corrosion. Ensure the sender unit is securely mounted and its wiring is intact.
• Miljøbeskyttelse: While designed for harsh environments, avoid direct exposure to extreme moisture or corrosive chemicals where possible.

7. Fejlfinding

If you experience issues with your VDO pyrometer gauge, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:

• Måleren fungerer ikke (ingen aflæsning):
  • Check all power and ground connections for proper voltage and continuity.
  • Verify the sender unit is correctly installed and connected to the gauge.
  • Inspect the wiring harness for any breaks or damage.
  • Ensure the vehicle's battery is adequately charged.
• Upræcise læsninger:
  • Confirm the sender unit is correctly positioned to measure the desired temperature.
  • Check for loose or corroded connections between the sender and the gauge.
  • Ensure the sender unit itself is not damaged.
• Ingen belysning:
  • Check the illumination wire connection to the vehicle's lighting circuit.
  • Verify that the vehicle's lights are on.
  • Inspect for any blown fuses in the lighting circuit.

If problems persist after performing these checks, contact VDO customer support or a qualified technician.
