This is a question that one of our customers at a Water District recently had for us. He was having throttling issues with the S800 panel and wanted to know more about the PID settings. He contacted one of our engineers for help with the theory and operation of the PID settings. Once explained, a small change got his engine running exactly how he wanted. He was thrilled.

In many real-time industrial applications such as robotics (automated robots, conveyor belts and other industrial machinery), medical (X-ray generators, syringes, hospital beds and dialysis equipment), transportation & automotives (agriculture, railways, trailers, heavy duty, marine, etc.), and aerospace, CANopen offers a standardized and highly configurable solution.

J1939 is a set of standards defined by SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers) for networking and communication in the commercial vehicle sector. They are used in heavy-duty vehicles such as trucks and buses, ships to ski lifts, mobile hydraulics, etc. The focal point of the application is the networking of the powertrain.

When applying the control voltage on the coil leads a one and a two, a magnetic field will be generated, attracting the movable lion core towards the fixed core, so the movable contacts which are fixed to the movable core, will move as well towards the fixed contacts to make a contactor and allow the power lines to run to the load. If we interrupt the control voltage, supplying the coil, the magnetic field will disappear, and the fourth spring will push the movable parts back again to their original position that will interrupt the power going to the load.

Pyrometers are remote-sensing thermometers used to measure the temperature of distant objects based on their incandescence, which is emitted by hot objects. The word pyrometer comes from two Greek words: pyr, meaning fire, and meter, meaning measure.

The Murphy PowerCore MPC-10 Controller is a general, all-purpose manual/auto start and manual/ auto throttling engine controller. This is a powerful controller that supports J1939 CAN protocols for electronically governed engines as well as I/O for mechanical engines for fault and safety shutdowns.

The term solenoid was coined in 1823 by André-Marie Ampère, a French physicist, mathematician and lay catholic who was one of the founders of the science of classical electromagnetism, which he referred to as "electrodynamics". “Solen” in Greek means channel or pipe, which is why he named it Solenoid. Ampère was an autodidact and professor at the École polytechnique and Collège de France, as well as a member of the French Academy of Sciences. The ampere, a SI unit of electric current measurement, is named after him. The Eiffel Tower also features his name among its 72 inscriptions.

We have chosen to support two methods of differential communications. One method is fail-safe biasing of the RS-485 port and the other is SAE’s J1708 Serial Communications between microcomputer systems in heavy-duty vehicle applications. This document is intended to aid you in sharing the data bus with Murphy Controllers.

To get the most out of any control panel, don’t overload the circuits and always use the proper wire for the signal being measured or current load required.

There is a new page on our web site that has the potential to benefit not only the humans that inhabit our Earth, but also to enlighten many forms of intelligent life in the far reaches of the Galaxy. We've learned that, like our archaic agricultural engines, most alien-designed spacecraft actually use W-Series engine control panels from Enovation Controls in their quest to reach warp speed. It's our aim to help all life-forms run their engines smoothly without the fear of frying a mag switch because of a faulty wiring improvisation.
