Abstract

Heavy equipment is a production equipment, where most of the heavy equipment uses diesel engines as the main power source. Heavy equipment damage is something that is avoided by heavy equipment owners. One of the damage that often occurs in diesel engines is the overheat condition of the diesel engine. One reason is the failure of the work of the thermostat. Diagnosis of the thermostat when a problem occurs in the diesel engine cooling system requires a long time. This study aims to determine the condition of the coolant flow rate and monitor thermostat performance without component overloading, so that machine breakdown time can be minimized. This research was conducted by developing an ultrasonic flow meter that is used as a coolant flow rate monitoring tool on the diesel engine cooling system. The results showed a significant relationship between the coolant flow rate and the performance of the thermostat. From this research it is known that when the thermostat conditions are normal, then when the coolant reaches temperature 80 it will be detected that the coolant flow rate from the engine block to the radiator increases significantly.
