Product Information

Full details

The Innovate Motorsports MTX-D Dual Gauge is for performance enthusiasts and motorsport drivers who need to monitor critical engine parameters efficiently. Its key benefit is providing both oil pressure and oil/water temperature readings in a single, compact 52mm unit, saving space and cost. A potential caveat is the need for proper sensor installation and understanding of the MTS system for advanced use. This gauge displays oil pressure numerically (0-145 psi / 0-10 bar) and temperature via LED indicators, offering user-settable warnings, customizable aesthetics with interchangeable faces and bezels, and data logging capabilities through MTS serial connections.

FAQs

What is the operating voltage for this gauge?

The Innovate Motorsports MTX-D Dual Gauge operates on a standard 12V negative-ground system.

Can I use this gauge for water temperature as well as oil temperature?

Yes, the included thermistor can be used to monitor either oil temperature or water/coolant temperature, depending on where you install the sensor.

How do I switch between PSI and Bar for oil pressure?

The pressure unit can be toggled between PSI and Bar through the gauge's programming menu. Refer to the installation guide for specific steps.

What is the range for the oil pressure reading?

The oil pressure can be read from 0 to 145 PSI (0 to 10 Bar).

What is the temperature range displayed by the gauge?

The temperature range is from 49 to 138 degrees Celsius (120 to 280 degrees Fahrenheit).

Does the gauge come with all necessary sensors?

Yes, the kit includes an electronic oil pressure sensor and a thermistor for temperature monitoring, along with all necessary cables and mounting hardware.

Can I log data from this gauge?

Yes, the gauge features MTS (Modular Tuning System) serial connections, allowing it to be linked with other compatible Innovate data logging devices for real-time data acquisition.

Troubleshooting

Gauge not powering on

Verify that the power and ground wires are securely connected to a 12V source and a good chassis ground. Check the fuse if applicable.

Inaccurate oil pressure readings

Ensure the electronic pressure sensor is correctly installed and all connections are tight. Check for any air leaks in the pressure line.

Temperature readings appear incorrect

Confirm the thermistor is properly installed in the correct port (oil or water) and its wiring is secure. Ensure the gauge is configured for the correct temperature sensor type.

MTS connection not recognized

Check that the MTS cable is securely plugged into both the gauge and the other MTS device. Ensure both devices are powered on.

Warning lights not activating

Review the gauge's programming menu to ensure the warning thresholds for low pressure and high temperature are correctly set and enabled.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Combines two essential gauges into one unit, saving dashboard space.
  • Offers both numerical and visual temperature feedback.
  • Provides critical warning alerts for engine protection.
  • Customizable appearance to match vehicle interior.
  • MTS serial connection allows for advanced data logging integration.

Cons

  • Requires careful sensor installation for accurate readings.
  • LED temperature display might be less precise than a dedicated numerical gauge for fine-tuning.
  • MTS functionality requires additional compatible Innovate devices for full benefit.
  • Initial setup and programming may require consulting the manual.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Installation involves mounting the 52mm gauge in a suitable location, connecting the included electronic oil pressure sensor and thermistor (for temperature) to the engine's respective ports. Power and ground connections are required. The MTS cable connects to the gauge and can be daisy-chained with other MTS devices. Refer to the installation guide for specific wiring and sensor placement.

Compatibility: The gauge is compatible with most 12V negative-ground vehicles. The MTS serial connection allows it to integrate with other Innovate Motorsports data logging devices like the MTX-L Plus or SCG-1.

Care: Clean the gauge lens with a soft, damp microfiber cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, which can damage the lens or display. Ensure all sensor connections are clean and secure. Periodically check sensor wiring for any signs of wear or damage.
