Murphy’s SD85 Solenoid Power Drive Time Delay was recently discontinued. But with a little engineering, the experts at MurCal were able to help our customers with a replacement. The Trombetta’s S500-A60!

Join us for an insightful presentation by our Engineer Specialist, Nick Gallagher, as he delves into an informative overview of the S800 Control Panel hardware.

In the dynamic landscape of industrial engines, efficient monitoring and control are paramount. Murphy's PV380 series, renowned for its reliability and performance, takes a leap forward with the integration of MECH software. This innovative solution serves as an instrumentation module and configurable engine controller, offering a comprehensive set point alarm and shutdown control with seamless J1939 communication.

These 2-inch and 2-1/2 inch temperature gauges feature built-in electrical switches for activating alarms and/or shutting down equipment and offer real-time accuracy to a fraction of a degree.

A circuit breaker is an automatically-operated switch designed to protect an electrical circuit from overloading and short circuits. It monitors the flow of current and “trips” or flips to the off position if current exceeds safe levels, cutting power to that circuit. After tripping, the breaker can be manually reset to restore power once the overload issue is resolved.

CANCapture is an affordable, high-quality CAN bus diagnostic tool developed by EControls. It provides a complete solution for recording, decoding, and analyzing CAN communication. EControls engineered CANCapture to meet the needs of their customers for an accessible yet powerful CAN development and troubleshooting software. As an all-in-one CAN analysis platform, CANCapture bridges the gap between price and functionality in the diagnostic hardware and software market.

The Murphy PowerCore® TEC-10 is an intelligent engine control panel that fully manages engine operations including auto start/stop, throttling, parameter displays, and fault warnings. It supports CAN bus and analog sensors to monitor both electronic and mechanical engines. The TEC-10 uses a flexible 22-state sequencing program to match diverse applications while enabling operator familiarity across platforms.

In a previous article we discussed the advantages of combining the TEC-10 controller from Enovation Controls, a 4-position keypad from Blink Marine, and a custom adapter harness built in our facility, and how we were able to give one of our rental pump manufacturers a competitive advantage over others that are just offering standard products. Using customer feedback, our engineers can improve off-the-shelf solutions offered by our vendors.

These new series of products from EGIS are the 4704 Surface Mount and the 4707 Panel Mount and they are perfect for the modern vehicle or vessel electrical system. These Panel Mount switchable circuit breakers offer robust construction, weatherproof housing, easy to mount circular style panel mount design, stainless steel hardware and high visibility ON/OFF lever.

MurCal’s CAT Retrofit Panel is a superior panel offering which includes the powerful, yet simple-to-configure MPC-20-R2 Controller. Includes MPC-20 in a sheet metal enclosure.

Herb Kaewert, an M.I.T. graduate, founded Stored Energy Systems® (SENS) in 1971. He located the company in the heart of Silicon Valley, amidst a vibrant high technology culture. Kaewert had previously founded Alkaline Batteries Corporation (ALCAD). He grew ALCAD to be one of the leading suppliers of NiCd batteries in the U.S., ultimately selling the company to the Chloride Group (U.K.).

In 2019 MurCal partnered with Blink Marine technology to bring you the most flexible CAN keypads on the market to power our new AgZone4, Automatic 4-Zone Keypad for custom configured Murphy PowerCore® engine controllers. Besides its durability, its software allows you to assign any valid CAN address to the keypad and communicate on either BUS simultaneously.

MurCal has been designing and manufacturing internal harnesses since its inception in 1958 for our gages and panels and we have been working with companies to streamline and modernize their operations and equipment ever since.
