Foreword

Units of pressure

1/ units of pressure in bars

NoteOne bar has the advantage of being close to the average atmospheric pressure at sea level

2/ Unit of pressure in millimetres of mercury (symbol: mmHg) or Torr (symbol: Torr)

This unit of measurement of pressure was origially defined as the pressure exerted at 0°C by a 1 millimetre column of mercury, later indexed to the atmospheric pressure

The pressure values indicated in the tables below are the values read on the pressure gauge (relative pressure)

NoteRelative pressure is equal to absolute pressure minus atmospheric pressure

Units of tension

The SEEM unit measures by deflection of the static tension of the belt, by deforming a portion of its length

engine speedpressure
800 rpm1,4 bar
1500 rpm3,8 bars
2500 rpm4,2 bars
3000 rpm4,3 bars

WarningCarry out work on the engine if the oil pressure values are below those in the table

Ancillary drive belt

Pressure, engine end of compression

Measure the pressure at the end of compression, in order, on cylinders 1, 2,3 and 4

NoteThe difference in pressure between 2 cylinders must not exceed 5 bars

WarningAlways search for the origins of fault(s), where the values measured are found to be significantly out
