Ok, well an AXV simply maintains outlet pressure on the evap. So either it is set too low(sure there isnt an adjustment screw on it, that is usually how the low pressure is set to match the flow). Or something else in the system is restricting the flow or the compressor isnt working to spec...
Yea, we know the problems/complications with pulling 12 outta the middle of 24, that is why many of us are contemplating or are actually shifting to a straight 24v bank with converter...
Y0u mean in the event of a short circuit? A Large 90-100A marine breaker like Ohiobenz mentioned on the output 12v Would be advisable. They spec fuses for the Bussman(Seen on the drawings) those reccomendations should also be followed...
Well if you can get all the air to pass thru the evap, you shouldn't have to relocate the bulb... one of the main functions of the TRV and its temp sensor/bulb is to keep the evap from freezing the condensed water On the evap...
A charged 24v battery bank is capable of delivering way more than 200A@24v,so a 200@ alt should have no effect upon it... what would ultimately do it in I think is trying to feed more than 100A Out of the 12v output...
The 12v on the bussman is always an output. It is exactly half of whatever voltage is applied to the 24v terminal. If the 12v terminal is connected to the 12v in the middle of the 24v source Battery string, it provides up to 100A of 12v to balance whatever load is being drawn from the middle...
In the first schematic the switched connection to 12v Could basically be used for emergencies, like in the event the converter should fail. If it fails, you can still easily pull the needed 12v out of the middle of the battery string to keep you going till new parts are sourced...
The...
Yes the 12v coming off of the polarity box 12v output terminal feeds the 12v lug in the power panel, as does the 24v coming off of the polarity box 24v output terminal.
You can remove the 12v cable coming from the alt and the 12v cable coming from the battery. They are connected to the same...
Low coolant or low coolant flow. Since your testing shows it isnt low coolant and with the high pressure split, Perhaps the TRV(Or somewhere else in the circuit) has an obstruction Which isnt letting the refrigerant flow properly... Are the condenser fans operating and giving good flow thru...
H and M on the A0 M1078 or M1079. I believe other models supply different power at different pins which I think may be used to tell the controller what vehicle it is Installed in and may alter its operation for that vehicle type...
the vehicle it is installed in...
A simple mod might be to...
Fuses protect from over current, not over voltage. It would require a voltage limiting circuit that is fast enough to limit the voltage before damage is done...
One side of the shunt goes to the starter neg terminal. The other side of the shunt goes to the batter bank negative terminals. The nato plug ground And plus leads should be connected at the battery negative And +24 terminals respectively. mine nato plug was was when I removed it, both leads...
It is just a Feed-thru bulkhead connector, the ends of its leads attach to the output speed sensor inside the transfer case. That will keep the trans in 2nd and your speedometer probably doesnt work either...
first hit googling the part number, hope you can find one cheaper than this, perhaps...
Well this should probably be a separate discussion, but you are comparing apples to oranges. You probably dont need 24,000 CFM, the LMTV may not actually need that much either. what you need to know is the ammount of heat to be dissipated(fuel consumption btu divided by 3) and overall Ufactor...
The problem with electric fans is that you need to power them... your fan stack could pretty quickly exceed your alt output and still come nowhere near the output of the installed fan.
I did some measurements along those lines and here is what you are up against.
27.5” diameter fan, 10.5”...
But you may not have an oil pressure issue until all the oil is expended, at which time your oil light comes on in the dash. An oil pan level indicator might be better, set to come on before the pickup tube sucks an air biscuit...
