Infrared Surface Thermometer

Handheld thermometer for checking road surface temperature before spraying or marking. Ensures conditions meet specification for proper adhesion.

Ignition Master Switch

Heavy-duty switch isolating all electrical circuits. Used at shift end to prevent battery drain and comply with depot safety policies.

Ignition Protection Fuse

Fuse protecting the auxiliary-engine start circuit from surge currents. Reduces risk of wiring fires on older sweepers.

Initial Penetration

First absorption of binder into dry surface before chipping; affects final texture.

Idle-Speed Controller

Electronic module automatically adjusting auxiliary-engine idle speed. Maintains optimal hydraulic pressure when sweep load changes.

Ignition Delay Relay

Relay delaying accessory power until engine start is complete. Prevents voltage drop to controllers during cranking.
