Master Relay Recommendations Sought
Hi,
I'm making some upgrades to the electrical system in my -4 and am looking for a new master solenoid (40amp, continuous duty). I've looked in the usual places, but haven't found much of a selection. Can any recommend a part? So far, I have found only 1 option in Aircraft Spruce - nothing at either Steinair or Aeroelectric. Thanks, Dean Bolton, MA |

I am using these from The Drill Spot,,,,,They have a great selection and good pricing. Also available in 24V which I am doing. http://www.drillspot.com/products/44...power_solenoid

Van's sells the standard master relay. You can call them and order directly.
I assume you are running an O-320? The 40A seems quite low, considering it needs to carry the starter load. |

Echlin ST-80
The master solenoid in our RV-6 was a Cole-Hersee 24115 (85 amp continuous rating). When it failed, we replaced it with an Echlin ST-80 (80 amp continuous) from NAPA, which has been working fine. Just another possible option to consider.

Dean, there is a Bosche relay, # 0 332 002 150 you may want to take a look at. Its designed for Fork Lift trucks. It runs up to 400amps for > 1 sec, which is more than we need.
Its very compact. It looks unlikely 'til you read the spec. I was introduced to it by the Aviat Husky community. |
