So by sheer idiocracy of not RTFM correctly on my part I discovered something that should be a standard feature. When I got the YH compressor over a year ago I didn’t realize I need to insert the temp probe into head of the compressor and instead I inserted into the motor casing guessing it’s there to monitor the motor. When at my friends house filling up with his compressor I noticed his YH temp would stabilize at somewhere around 45 degrees while mine alway climb, climb and climb with no sign of stabilization lien his. So worked in thermal management with 2 bucket water system, big fan and turn off the compressor at 55 degrees every time.
Then one of the thread someone mentioned to insert the temp probe in the little hole of the head I when doh!!! Switch over the probe location I also got the stable temp but it got me thinking, the motor got much hotter than the compressor head so I really should be watching that temp instead of the head temp because with my thermal management method it’s doesn’t ever climb to 55 degrees.
ordered a pack of temp gauge and I’ll let the pictures do the talking so you can decide if you want to do the same mod. Gauge on the case is for the motor and gauge on the handle is for the head.
