Product Features
- High-Precision Closed-Loop Control: Adopts an advanced digital signal processing chip to achieve precise adjustment of speed and load.
- Multi-Protocol Compatibility: Supports multiple fieldbuses, facilitating seamless integration with upper-level systems (DCS, PLC, SCADA).
- Modular Structure: Uses plug-in terminal blocks and detachable I/O cards for quick maintenance and replacement.
- Self-Diagnosis and Fault Alarm: Built-in diagnostic function that can real-time monitor internal status and report fault codes through the communication port.
- Wide Temperature Adaptability: Complies with IP56 protection rating, suitable for harsh industrial environments.
Structure and Composition
- Main Control Unit: Digital processor and memory, responsible for algorithm execution and parameter storage.
- Power Module: Internal DC-DC converter, providing regulated power supply.
- I/O Interface Board: Analog input/output, digital I/O, and communication ports.
- Heat Dissipation Device: Aluminum alloy heat sink and fan (optional), ensuring thermal stability during long-term operation.
- Mounting Bracket: Standard DIN rail or panel mounting accessories.
Typical Application Fields
- Speed/load control of gas turbines and steam turbines in power plants
- Synchronous speed regulation of marine main engines and auxiliary engines
- Load distribution of petrochemical compressors and pump stations
- Aero-engine ground test systems
- Other industrial scenarios requiring precise speed regulation of high-speed rotating machinery
Installation and Maintenance Points
Installation
- Fix using DIN rail or panel, ensure the module is placed horizontally. Follow the polarity marks when connecting power and signal lines.
Wiring
- Use shielded cables for connecting analog/digital I/O. Communication cables (RS-485, CAN) should maintain the minimum bending radius to avoid electromagnetic interference.
Parameter Configuration
- Perform on-site parameter setting through the configuration software provided by Woodward (such as ControlStation) and save to the internal EEPROM of the module.
Commissioning
- Conduct a self-test after first power-on to confirm all I/O are normal. Then perform closed-loop commissioning to verify speed response and load distribution accuracy.
Daily Maintenance
- Regularly check if the heat sink and fan are dusty, and clean the air vents. Perform firmware upgrade every 6 months to obtain the latest control algorithms and security patches.
Fault Handling
- The module’s self-diagnosis will generate fault codes. Refer to the fault table in the technical manual for troubleshooting. If necessary, replace the I/O card or the entire unit for on-site maintenance.
