TwinScan Engine Instruments
Outstanding Readability in Half the Space

TwinScan Instruments embody a new concept in twin
engine analog instrumentation which sets the ultimate standard for easy readability in the
least possible space. Each individual instrument contains port and starboard meters which
reference to each other. In a single, quick glance the eye can scan the entire instrument
panel for non-matching pointers that signal possible trouble. Potentially dangerous and
costly engine problems that might go unnoticed on conventional instrument panels are
highlighted on a TwinScan panel.
TwinScan instruments reduce the panel
space required by 50% leaving more room for other electronics. A new patented miniature
meter movement design is the first to allow two meters to fit in the industry standard
2" diameter case which significantly reduces overall installation time. Images of
instruments shown here are relative sizes.
Deluxe Features:
- Tachometer / MPG / Synch Indicator uses an NMEA 0183 speed
signal from a GPS or Loran, and a fuel flow signal from a TwinScan GPH instrument to
digitally display Fuel Efficiency (NM/Gal) or the RPM difference between port
and starboard engines.
- High-Low Level electronics controls for separate external alarm
lights/horns for water temperature and oil pressure. User resettable alarm levels.
- Internally illuminated pointers provide exceptionally effective
night readability. The pointer shaft and a warning light in the pointer hub flash whenever
a High/Low alarm level is exceeded.
- Microprocessor electronics for high performance features like
electronic dampening, linear dial scales, superior accuracy unaffected by ground voltage
shifts.
- Patented, magnetically shielded, precision, miniature air-core
meter movement with state-of-the-art engineering features.
- Corrosion free stainless steel bezel (black, white or polished)
and molded acetal cases which fit standard 3-3/8" and 2-1/8" diameter holes.
- Reverse polarity and load dump protection exceeding SAE J1810
standards.
- 2" instruments have 140° wide sweep dials with linear
scales for readability superior to the 90° scales in conventional gauges.
- Multiple 2" TwinScan instruments can run off a single
station VDO or Datcon temperature or pressure sender; no need for dual station senders for
multiple stations. Dual station applications require two sets of 2" TwinScan
meters.
- Dial faces: Black on White, or White/Red on Black. U.S &
Metric Scales.
