 Posted: Wed Jan 02, 2013 9:01 am Post subject: Which Oil Thermostat |
 |
|
I am considering installation of an oil thermostat. There is supposed to be one from Rotax, but I can't find price or order number on their agent's websites. Has anyone got the details ?On the other hand, I see a Mocal one at merlinmotorsport.co.uk for 48 pounds inc. Vat. It looks the same as the 'Rotax' one.
Many thanks
Karl

Hi Karl
http://www.ekmpowershop2.com/ekmps/shops/conairsports/thermostasis-remote-oil-thermostat-521-c.asp
This is the link to the Conair Sports site.
I fitted an oil stat 2 years ago which helped with the warm up and in the cruise, but the biggest benefit was the water stat I fitted this year. The two together give fast warm up and 80 degrees + on both water and oil temperatures. The best bit is the temperatures stay at that until shut down, they used to drop alarmingly as soon as the power came off for descent.
My installation is on a Classic with a 912ul, it was a real squeeze to get it all to fit.
Regards
Pete

Both the Permacool 1060 and the Thermostasis P6-H are approved by the LAA for use with the Rotax 912,914.
Unless it has been changed since I did the documentation in 2010 the Mocal is not.
The Permacool 1060 (the aluminium coloured one with round cross housing) is standard Mod 12793
The Thermostasis (dark anodised, square shape) is standard mod 12808
The coolant bypass valve is also approved (SM12915)
Look on the LAA web site, LAA aircraft, Standard Mods, ROTAX ENGINE.
They are also under Standard Mods on the Club web site http://www.theeuropaclub.org/for-builders/europa-mods-sbs/laa-standard-mods/
If you have problems I can send copies direct.

Hi Ian,Pete, Svein,
Thank you for all that good information and the attachments. There seem to be quite a few options out there.Price is important to me, so the Permacool 1060 at $ 61 is probably the way to go, as it is approved and has all the installation info as supplied by Ian. I will take a look at the coolant thermostat and probably go for that as well.
I decided against the Laminova heat exchanger, as I am not sure if it would be approved in Canada; it is quite expensive and I can do without the extra weight.
Cheers,
Karl
