Looking for the ultimate gauge to monitor and protect your vehicle’s radiator and cooling system? Whether you own a petrol or diesel engine, especially one prone to overheating or head gasket failure, the **JRP Edge 52mm 3-in-1 Gauge with Head Guard Ultra** is the complete solution you need to safeguard your engine and avoid costly damage.
This advanced gauge goes beyond basic water temperature monitoring. In addition to the standard features like CPW (Colour Pre-Warn) technology and low coolant detection, the **JRP Edge 3-in-1 Gauge** introduces the revolutionary **Head Guard Ultra**. This proprietary feature provides comprehensive protection by helping detect critical issues like blown head gaskets or a stuck thermostat—issues that can lead to engine failure if not caught early.
**Head Guard Ultra** combines a low coolant sensor and alarm with a water pressure sensor that continuously monitors your radiator system's pressure. This allows the gauge to detect abnormal pressure levels, alerting you to potential problems before they escalate.
### Key Features:
**Water Temperature Monitoring with CPW Technology**
The gauge provides real-time water temperature readings along with the CPW system, which visually alerts you when temperatures begin to rise, giving you a chance to intervene before reaching critical levels. This early warning feature helps prevent engine overheating and ensures better engine protection.
**Engine Low Coolant Alarm & Detection**
The gauge includes a dedicated low coolant sensor that triggers an immediate alarm if coolant levels drop, a crucial feature to prevent overheating. Whether you’re off-roading and hit a rock that damages the radiator or racing on the track, this sensor ensures you’re alerted to a drop in coolant before it causes severe damage. Typically, standalone low coolant alarm systems cost around $200, but with the **JRP Edge 3-in-1** with **Head Guard Ultra**, this essential function is included, delivering exceptional value at a fraction of the cost of separate systems.
**Water Pressure Monitoring (Head Guard Ultra)**
The **Head Guard Ultra** feature sets this gauge apart by integrating a water pressure sensor that monitors the pressure in your radiator system. Normal pressure ranges between 12 to 20 psi during typical operation, but if the pressure exceeds this range, it signals a potential issue, like a blown head gasket or a stuck thermostat. Unlike traditional gauges that only monitor temperature or coolant levels, this 3-in-1 gauge detects problems that may not immediately show up through those metrics. For example, a stuck thermostat may cause the engine coolant to boil, even though the temperature and coolant levels seem normal. The water pressure sensor, however, will catch the increased pressure and alert you to the problem before it causes serious engine damage.
With the **JRP Edge 52mm 3-in-1 Gauge with Head Guard Ultra**, you can confidently monitor your vehicle’s cooling system with a complete, affordable solution that provides early detection of critical issues, reducing the risk of costly engine repairs.
