engine monitoring systems

[mike2333]

Does anybody know any engine monitoring systems out there that can be retrofitted on any engine. Ive seen murphy panels and gauges but is there anything else? It would be nice to buy just a package for everything rather than seperate components as that adds up into the thousands very quickly. Id like adjustable alarm setpoints for engine op, gear op, expansion tank level, engine temp, gear temp, clutch pressure etc... thanks for any help!

I tried finding out if the new Scania panels can fit onto the DEC2 control systems of my scania, not so much from what ive heard, a little bummed out about it!

Save thousands $$$ and just stick your head in the engine room once in awhile.

There is no denying the value of an alarm system for an engine as you can tend to a problem on the engine within valuable seconds. As a Chief Engineer, ive worked on many ships over the years and they all have extensive alarm systems

Im looking for something really simple and not a computer that plugs into another computer on the engine. I have an old school 3208 and actually need the sensors along with the panel.

Murphy MEMIS system

I have a Muyrphy MEMIS system, used for 5 years, dual helm, two full sets of gauges (oil P, H2O T, gear P & T, Tach). It was on a detroit 653 I recently pulled, has control box and sensors, though I believe I left a couple of the sensors on the engine when I sold it, but those are easy to get from Murphy. I have all the docs for it, paper and PDF. Has as many inputs as you think you might need- bilge high alarm, raw water flow, main alarm/horn output, silence feature, and more, has small LCD display you can mount at main helm. Has reminders for oil changes, fuel filter changes, battery water level checking, etc.... Paid a lot for it, but can't use it on a new Cummins. Gauges are red lighted, black face, stainless bezel, all in great shape. Hate to see it all head to a box on my shop shelf to sit forever. The system is well suited for older mechanical engines. PM or call if ineterested I thinking maybe 450 for the whole ball of wax. Chris, 360 six six one zero two two seven.
