Product catalog summary
Installation of Magnetic Pickups

Introduction:
This document provides installation instructions for FW MURPHY magnetic pickups, specifically models MP3298, MP7905, and MP7906. These devices are AC generators typically installed in the flywheel housing of internal combustion engines to generate voltage pulses.

Set Gap Adjustment:
1. Insert the magnetic pickup until it stops at the gear face.
2. Back off by turning counterclockwise 1/4, 1/2, or 3/4 turn as per the Gap Chart.
3. Ensure gap clearance by rotating the gear completely.

Model Specifications:
  • MP3298: Part Number 20700162, Total Length 3 in., Thread Size 5/8-18 UNF
  • MP7906: Part Number 20700161, Total Length 3 in., Thread Size 3/4-16 UNF
  • MP7905: Part Number 20700160, Total Length 4-1/2 in., Thread Size 3/4-16 UNF

Installation Procedure:
1. Drill and tap a hole in the flywheel housing according to model and thread size.
2. Avoid drilling too deep to prevent damage to ring gear teeth.
3. Use an air hose to blow chips when drilling and tapping.

Specifications:
  • Housing Material: MP3298 uses Type 300 Stainless Steel; MP7905 and MP7906 use Type 6061 Aluminum/Anodize Class 1.
  • Output Leads: Two insulated leads, 20 AWG, STR/TEF insulated.
  • Output Voltage: 200 V.P.P. typical.
  • Coil Resistance: MP3298 - 975 Ohms; MP7905 and MP7906 - 2500 Ohms.
  • Temperature Range: -65° to +225° F (-54° to 107° C).

Performance Charts:
  • Gear Pitch/Voltage Output: Provides standard voltage outputs for various gear pitches.
  • Output Voltage Operating Chart: Tested at specific conditions for performance verification.

Important Notes:
Ensure the magnetic pickup gap is adjusted to achieve the minimum voltage required at the engine's lowest RPM. Voltage increases with speed. If erratic readings occur, check the magnetic tip for metal chips.

FW MURPHY" PRODUCTION CONTROLS Installation of Magnetic PickupsModels MP3298, MP7905 and MP7906 A magnetic pickup is an AC generator. It is normally installed into the flywheel housing of an internal combustion engine. The starter ring gear acts upon it to generate a voltage pulse each time a gear tooth passes the end of the sensor. Magnetic Pickup Installation Model Specifications Housing Material: MP3298: Type 300 Stainless Steel; Locknut: Type 300 Stainless Steel MP7905 and MP7906: Type 6061 Aluminum/Anodize Class 1 Locknut: steel nickel plated Output Leads (all models): Two insulated leads, 20 AWG, STR/ TEF insulated per MIL-W-16878D Type E, 1 White and 1 Black Output Voltage (all models): 200 V.P.P. TYP (tested at 1000 I.P.S, 20 Pitch gear, 0.005 Gap., and 100K OHM Load) Coil Resistance: MP3298: 975 Ohms TYP MP7905 and MP7906: 2500 Ohms TYP Potting (all models): Internal portion of pickup is filled with epoxy resin, making the magnetic pickup oil- and moisture-resistant. Temperature (all models): -65° to +225° F (-54° to 107° C) Coil Induct.: MP3298: 800 mH max, @ 1 KHz MP3298: 400 mH TYP @ 1 KHz Flywheel Housing Drill and tap a hole in the flywheel housing (See below for model and thread size). IMPORTANT: Drilling too deep may damage ring gear teeth. Blow chips with air hose when drilling and tapping hole. Drill and Tap Chart Set Gap Adjustment Insert magnetic pickup and turn until it stops at the face of the gear. Back off the gear by turning the pickup counter clockwise 1/4, 1/2 or 3/4 turn. See Gap Chart to determine gap distance based on the turn. Check gap clearance by rotating the gear completely around. NOTE: Magnetic pickup gap should be adjusted so that the minimum voltage required is attained at the engine’s lowest RPM. The voltage will increase as the speed increases. If erratic readings occur, remove the magnetic pickup and check the magnetic tip for metal chips.
