Detailed content

  • Speed Input: Dual redundant MPU inputs (100–24,950 Hz)
  • I/O: 8 analog inputs, 20 discrete inputs, 2 × 4–20 mA analog outputs, 8 Form‑C relay outputs
  • Communication: RS‑232, RS‑422, Ethernet (Modbus TCP), RemoteView support
  • Operating Temp: −40°C to +85°C; Humidity: 5%–95% non‑condensing
  • Compliance: ATEX Zone 2, CE, RoHS, marine certifications

    Functional Features:

  • Adaptive OptiTune PID algorithm for precise speed control (±0.05% accuracy)
  • Automatic start sequencing (hot/cold start) and critical speed avoidance
  • Integrated graphical HMI with multi‑language support and real‑time trend logging
  • Comprehensive turbine protection: overspeed trip, low vacuum, thrust bearing wear
  • Field‑configurable via Woodward ToolKit software

    Application Scenarios:

  • Single‑valve steam turbines driving generators, pumps, compressors
