    12V DC Relay Issues (Diesel Engine)

    12V DC Relay Issues (Diesel Engine)

    Hello. I wont be able to get the full type number of the sensor for about 3 weeks as it is on our machine at another spot in the country. As for the relay I am using it is this one attached. I think I am starting to see what you are saying. Thanks for the help.

    It is the opposite. As when the sensor is active it energizes the relay which in turn energizes the ignition.

    Okay. I'm not too sure what that exactly means but I think I get it. Could the chattering in any way he caused by the different sizes of wire? It's all fed right into the relay, the ground, + , and switched + to the ignition are 12 Ga and the switch feed from the sensor is 22 ga

    Hey thanks for the offer. I have attached a data sheet of the sensor. It is a Baumer Clever Level LBFI.

    That could be possible. The output wire is about 20ga I think and is 0 volts until charged when it senses water. How would one go about that?

    12V DC Relay Issues (Diesel Engine)

    Hello Everyone. Thanks to all who replied with helpful comments and solutions. I just wanted to update that work has been busy and we had to move off of getting this problem fixed but in my spare time I managed to find out that the sensor does not send a constant feed and is causing the relay to...

I also do lots of extra...

    If that is the case, then is there a different relay I can use?

    12V DC Relay Issues (Diesel Engine)

    Sorry I may have worded it wrong before, there is no actual kill switch. The relay acts as the kill switch. The ignitions power flows through it so if it ever switches off then the whole engine control unit goes dead and it shuts down fuel as well. I have tested the function of the relay and...

    The battery and alternator grounds are the typical battery connection sizes, 4awg or 6awg, the relay and sensor grounds are 12awg, and 20awg respectively as those are the wire sizes of the connectors

    12V DC Relay Issues (Diesel Engine)

    Yes, the battery ground is run to the alternator and both are connected to the frame. All grounds are from that point.

    It is grounded to a point on the frame of the unit. When it senses the water it closes a circuit with the power feed to send power down the switch wire. I think it is designed to be used in a system controller but the dealer said people have used it to operate a relay.

    12V DC Relay Issues (Diesel Engine)

    Okay thanks. I will check with the sensor manufacturers and see if it is constant or not to double check. If it isn't, is there anything that can be done or a different style relay to use?
