Product Overview
The sensor threads into the engine cooling circuit and provides the temperature signal used by the gauge, alarm, or control system. A failed sender can show up as an incorrect or dead temperature reading, intermittent indication, or a temperature warning that does not agree with actual engine condition.
For generator, industrial, and heavy-engine service, the thread size and electrical connection are just as important as the engine family. This unit is identified by SD4043 and 3015238 and uses a 1/2-inch NPT threaded body, making those details useful checks before installation.

Before You Order
Compare the old sender number, 1/2-inch NPT thread, terminal arrangement, and engine application before ordering. Cummins K19/QSK19 installations can use different senders depending on the gauge or control package.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does this sensor do?
A: It senses coolant temperature and supplies the corresponding signal to the machine or engine monitoring circuit.
Q: Should I order by engine model alone?
A: No. Match SD4043 / 3015238, the 1/2-inch NPT thread, and the electrical connection to the sensor being replaced.
