Temperature sensor for American Crane machinery

The temperature sensor, part number 814173, functions as an electronic monitoring component designed to measure the thermal state of fluids or specific machine assemblies. It tracks temperatures within engine cooling systems, hydraulic circuits, or transmissions by converting thermal data into electrical signals. This information allows the machine control system to detect deviations and monitor operating conditions during use.

This component is manufactured by Stewart-Warner and is compatible with American Crane crane equipment. It is identified by the manufacturer specification -353-Z, which corresponds to the internal design requirements for this application. The sensor is engineered to integrate into the existing electrical architecture of the machine to provide continuous readings.

Temperature sensors serve as the primary feedback mechanism for thermal management in heavy machinery. By providing data to the operator or the control unit, these devices help maintain system temperatures within defined operational parameters. Proper functionality of these sensors is necessary for the monitoring of critical systems, helping to identify potential overheating before it impacts machine operation.
