WOODWARD 2301A 9907-018

Description

Product Overview

The Woodward 2301A 9907-018 is a speed – controller designed for diesel engines, gas engines, steam turbines, or gas turbines. It is a key component in the industrial automation control system, mainly used for speed and load control. Belonging to Woodward’s 2301A series, this product is positioned as a high – performance speed control device, which can meet the precise control requirements of various prime movers.

The controller can set the speed or load of the equipment according to the 4–20mA or 1–5 Vdc computer – control signal, providing users with flexible control options. It has two working modes: isochronous regulation and droop regulation, which can be applied to different working conditions, such as constant – speed control of a single – unit operation or multi – unit operation on an isolated power grid. In addition, it has functions such as synchronization or droop control, high – speed and low – speed adjustment, and override start fuel limit, which enhances its performance and application scope.

Main Features and Advantages

• Flexible Control Modes: The Woodward 2301A 9907 – 018offers two control modes, isochronous and droop regulation. Isochronous regulation is suitable for constant – speed control in single – unit or multi – unit operations on an isolated power grid, while droop regulation provides more flexible control, meeting different application requirements.
• Diverse Signal Inputs: It can accept 4–20mA or 1–5 Vdc computer – control signals, allowing for easy integration with various control systems and facilitating users to set the speed or load according to actual needs.
• Rich Additional Functions: In addition to basic speed and load control, it also has functions like synchronization or droop control, high – and low – speed adjustment, and override start fuel limit. These functions can optimize the operation of prime movers, reduce pollution and engine wear, and improve the overall efficiency of the system.
• High – precision Output: The output signal of the controller is proportional to the fuel setting required to achieve the desired speed/load, which can ensure precise control of the prime mover and make the equipment run more stably1.
• Strong Environmental Adaptability: With a metal enclosure, it has good anti – interference ability, and can work stably in harsh environments with electromagnetic interference, humidity, dust, and vibration. Its operating temperature range is wide, from – 40 °C to 85 °C, which can meet the requirements of various industrial scenarios.
