10/25/2011, Torrance, California - MGL Avionics has announced availability of the new XTreme EMS engine monitoring system. The XTreme EMS is based on a 4.3" sunlight readable, wide viewing angle, high resolution LCD display. It integrates an SD card reader (for software updates and for engine data recorder), 5 function buttons, a rotary control.
It can be connected to standard MGL Avionics RDAC (engine monitor) boxes (required).
The XTreme EMS is designed to fit a standard 3 1/8" round instrument hole. The body is located off-center allowing the unit to replace instruments on the right side of a standard 6-pack configuration or any other location that currently occupies two instruments.
Due to the light weight and very low mounting depth no complicated mounting brackets or trays are needed. Power use is low and operation from much less than 12V to around 28V is fully supported.
Note: The XTreme EMS is an engine-only version of the existing XTreme EFIS that includes primary flight (pitot/static), AHRS and GPS instrumentation.
Basic Package Example:
XTreme EMS $850
RDAC XB $220
Engine Senders * $425
TOTAL $1,495
