Description
The Digital SELECTRONIC®DT9800 series features a tachometer-only and
tachometer with built-in overspeed switch. These tachometers are highly
accurate and dependable due to digital solid-state electronics and a quartz
crystal time base. The surface-mount enclosure makes it easy to install.
Tachometer power and RPM data are supplied by a magnetic pickup or
capacitor discharge (CD) ignition–depending on model chosen. The RPM
data is converted and displayed on a four digit, easy-to-read liquid crystal
display (LCD). The LCD displays up to 9999 RPM.
The DT9803 and DT9804 are tachometer-only models. The DT9803 is
powered by a magnetic pickup. The DT9804 is powered by a CD ignition.
The TACHSWICH™ models, DT9805 and DT9806, combine a digital
tachometer and overspeed switch. The DT9805 is powered by a magnetic
pickup and the DT9806 is powered by a CD ignition.
MOUNTING
1. Before installing, b
calibration rocker switches and overspeed switches from the back of
the panel.
2. Drill mounting holes according to the dimensions below.

Class I, Div. 2, Group D Hazardous Locations. Models DT9803 and DT9805 magnetic pickup powered
18 to 112 Vpp input. Models DT9804 and DT9806 used with CD ignition. Contact Murphy for details.
The equipment must be installed in a suitable enclosure accepted by local authorities.
3. Be sure the gasket is in place on the back of the tachometer before
installing. Insert the tachometer from the front of the panel aligning the
mounting studs with the appropriate holes. Secure the tachometer using the
four 6/32 nuts, but do not overtighten the nuts as case damage could occur.

WARNING
:
PERFORM THE WIRING INSTALLATION WITH THE POWER SOURCE OFF. DO NOT
ROUTE TACHOMETER LEADS WITH PRIMARY IGNITION WIRING.
DT9803
Connect the magnetic pickup cable conductors to the MPU terminal as
shown in Figure 1. Use a two conductor shielded cable between the
DT9803 and the magnetic pickup.

DT9804
Before wiring the DT9804, determine the output voltage and ground
polarity of the ignition. Table 1 lists the Peak Output Voltage and
Ground Polarity of some common ignitions.
Connect the DT9804 tachometer to the CD ignition. Figure 2 shows a
typical wiring diagram for negative ground ignition system.

WARNING
:
PERFORM THE WIRING INSTALLATION WITH THE POWER SOURCE OFF.
DO NOT ROUTE TACHOMETER LEADS WITH PRIMARY IGNITION WIRING.
DT9805
1. Connect the magnetic pickup as shown in Figure 3 .
2. Connect the overspeed switch wiring as shown Figures 3 and 4.
Observe the polarity of the overspeed switch. The positive terminal
must be connected to the positive side of the circuit as shown.
3. If connecting to a Murphy LCDT annunciator refer to Figure 5. See
General Catalog for more information on the LCDT.
