The LCA1224 low coolant alarm can be used in a 12V or 24V automotive system or remote water pumping system to monitor radiator coolant level.
It will provide a visual and audible alarm if the coolant falls below the chosen level or if the pump loses priming.
It will give warning of a sudden loss of coolant (from a burst radiator hose, for example) alerting you to switch off the engine, preventing any damage due to overheating.
- AC sensing - the probe is supplied with AC, it doesn’t produce electrolysis that causes corrosion
- Dual voltage - suitable for 12V or 24V, negative or positive earth systems
- Self-test - on ignition turn on, the LED flashes twice and the audible alarm emits four short bursts
- Broken wire detection - if the wire to the probe is broken it will sound the alarm and operate the buzzer
- Anti-slosh delay - if the radiator is not quite full, the LED flashes after ½ second but the audible alarm will not turn on for 3-4 seconds... there is a visual reminder to top up but no annoying alarms
- External warning outputs allow a dashboard lamp and/or a buzzer to be used when the LCA1224 is not visible to the driver
