The ABB DQ96-C is a panel-mounted moving coil RPM meter used for shaft and engine speed measurement in marine and industrial machinery spaces. With a centre-zero scale of 150-0-150 RPM and a 10-0-10V measurement input, this 96mm format analogue instrument provides direct, reliable indication of rotational speed — critical for monitoring propulsion shafts, auxiliary engines, thrusters, and other rotating machinery onboard vessels.
Key Features
✓ Centre-zero RPM scale: 150-0-150 RPM range for bidirectional speed indication
✓ Voltage input: 10-0-10V measurement range for integration with tachometer generators or signal converters
✓ Moving coil mechanism: 240° DQ96 panel instrument offering smooth, stable analogue readout
✓ Adjustable calibration: Built-in +10% adjustment potentiometer (YC1. 1.0:N) for field span trimming without panel removal
✓ ABB instrumentation lineage: Cross-referenced under Article No. 3BSC650002R9 and Order No. 4985.1018-044 — part of ABB’s established marine and industrial panel instrument range
Marine Applications
Main engine shaft speed monitoring and engine control room display panels
Auxiliary engine and generator set RPM indication
Bow thruster and stern thruster speed measurement
Propeller shaft and reduction gearbox output monitoring
Pump, compressor, and rotating machinery speed panels on cargo vessels and offshore units
Why Marine Engineers Choose
The ABB DQ96-C is a well-established instrument found in machinery control rooms across a broad range of vessel types. Its centre-zero analogue display, reliable moving coil construction, and field-adjustable calibration make it a practical direct-reading solution where digital readout is not fitted or where analogue backup is required alongside automated systems.
Ideal For
Merchant vessels, bulk carriers, tankers, container ships, offshore support vessels, platform supply vessels, ferries, fishing vessels, and any marine or industrial installation operating ABB DQ96-series panel instrumentation.
Technical Support & Compliance
We provide complete solutions including remote troubleshooting, onboard technical support, testing and commissioning, repair, retrofit and upgrade assistance, and integration support for ABB panel instrumentation. Compatibility is subject to confirmation — please share nameplate photos, part numbers, system drawings, panel model and version, vessel name and IMO number, and your intended scope of supply or installation to allow us to verify suitability before ordering.
