Revolutions per minute (RPM) as displayed by the RPM indicator in the cockpit, is an indication of the amount of power provided by the aircraft’s power plant. As a general rule of thumb, higher the RPM, more the power and more the fuel consumption. That said, more the number of cylinder’s in the aircraft, lesser…
Here’s Why EDM 790 Is The Most Reliable EDM
The reliability of the EDM 790 is not just any tall claim by manufacturers J.P. Instruments. Tests prove beyond a shred of doubt that the Engine Data Management 790 system is truly the most reliable and advanced twin piston engine-monitoring instrument on the market. And, backing the reliability claim is the TSO certificate for quality.…
CRB Probe and CHT Gasket Probe in Aircraft
All aircraft have a whole bunch of probes connecting various parts of the aircraft engine to the cockpit. The probes (or sensors), pickup the information it is supposed to pickup and transmits it in real time to the cockpit where it is connected to the appropriate indicator or engine data managers (EDM). CRB probe and…
Implementation of PC Interface Cable
As 20-or-more-year-old aircraft are overhauled, no matter how traditional the owner might be, a certain degree automation is usually introduced into the cockpit. This is done in the interest of accuracy and also to enable some analytics for the ground crew. The modern day EDM for example, relieve the human operator of the tedium of…
Installation of RPM Sensor for Slick Magneto
Pilots and owners of aircraft unless licensed as airframe and powerplant mechanics should ideally not be installing or doing maintenance work on their own unless supervised by competent person. Before you decide to buy a new Aircraft Flow Sensors, make sure the existing one hasn’t stopped working because of some silly reason. Start with ensuring…
The CHT Bayonet Probe – Features & Specifications
A CHT Bayonet probe is a threaded probe typically used on Lycoming engines in aircraft. These spring-loaded bayonet mounted CHT probes are usually ‘K’-type probes and they generally include an adopter. The CHT Bayonet probe are turned clock-wise and locked into the screw-in adapter and screwed into the cylinder head thermo well. Being spring-loaded, the…
Oil Temp Probe In Aircraft And Its Advantages
Be it a car, truck, bike or a plane, most of us are just content in flying it or driving it. Not many have so much as seen the engine under the hood or even know what it looks like. And then, there are others who need to not only see but need to feel,…
Comparing EDM 790 And EDM 900 Systems
This article helps you compare the two EDM’s and select the one that fits your requirements and your budget. Both these aircraft engine data monitoring systems are manufactured by J.P. Instruments. EDM 900 EDM 790 (Usually between $3,000 and $5,000) (From $7,055.00 to $8,255.00) Features: Features: 2-4 piston Aircraft Engine Monitoring EGT & CHT 4…
EDM 830 – Full Colour Engine Data Manager for Aircraft
As the owner of a piston engine aircraft, whether you are upgrading your existing EDM or upgrading your cockpit, you can’t go wrong in selecting the full colour EDM 830. The all new EDM 830 series Aircraft Engine Data Management system is an upgraded version of legendary 700 and 800 series EDM. Features of the…
EDM 900 – Advanced Twin Piston Engine -Monitoring Instrument
This is no ideal claim and there’s a TSO certificate to prove the claims. With the advanced EDM 900 on board, you can remove many of your old analog gauges and reduce clutter on your instrument panel. Depending on space or user choice, the EDM 900 can be installed vertical or horizontally. Additionally, the owner…
