Four-Function
Tattletale
Description
Murphy's EN204 Tattletale Annunciator
works with other engine components to
clearly indicate critical engine operating
conditions. The four bright LEDs on the
face of the Annunciator indicate the cause
of an alarm or shutdown condition.
Two EN204 models are available. Each
shows the standard critical engine operating
parameters—oil pressure, coolant tempera-
ture, and battery voltage. Model EN204-S-
12 also includes an indicator for low fuel
level. Model EN204-SG-12 substitutes the
fuel level indicator with a glow plug indica-
tor for those engines that use a glow plug
for easier starting.
The EN204 Annunciators are used in con-
junction with Murphy Electric Swichgage
instrument or other normally open switches
that close to ground when a fault condition
occurs. As an example, in a system with a
Murphy EGS21P-100 Oil Pressure
Swichgage instrument, the Swichgage clos-
es to ground when the oil pressure drops
below a pre-determined set point. This will
energize the Oil Pressure LED on the
EN204 to highlight a low oil pressure fail-
ure.

Annunciator
A very important feature of the EN204 is the
ability to interface with Murphy 518PH or the
760A Electromagnetic Switches to perform
automatic engine shutdown when fault condi-
tions occur. The EN204 can also be used with
other Murphy visual and audible alarms
(STAS series remote alarm, SAH audible
alarm, and the TL7 visual alarm) for remote
annunciation and equipment shutdown.
