Woodward 8440-2057

الوصف

The Woodward 8440-2057 is a powerful and flexible genset controller, part of the easYgen-3000 series, specifically identified as the easYgen-3100-1/P2. This unit is designed for advanced power generation applications, providing comprehensive control and protection for both isolated and parallel operations.

Key Features and Applications

The easYgen-3100-1/P2 acts as the central command center for a generator system. Unlike the easYgen-3200 models, the 3100 series is designed for cabinet back-panel mounting and does not have an integrated front-panel display. It’s meant to be used with a separate display or as part of a larger, integrated control system, such as with a Woodward RP-3000 remote panel.

Core Functions:

• Automatic Mains Failure (AMF): This unit can automatically start and stop a genset in the event of a utility power failure, ensuring a seamless transfer to standby power.
• Flexible Parallel Operation: The easYgen-3100-1/P2 is capable of operating in various parallel modes, including island parallel, mains parallel, and multiple-unit parallel. It can control up to 32 gensets in a single network, with advanced load-sharing and sequencing features.
• Load Management: It includes features for peak shaving, where the genset is used to reduce energy consumption during high-demand periods, and import/export control for managing power flow to and from the utility grid.
• Comprehensive Protection: The controller provides extensive protection for the generator, engine, and mains. It monitors for overspeed, overcurrent (1A CT inputs), over/under-voltage, and over/under-frequency, among other parameters, to ensure equipment safety.
• Package 2 (P2) Features: This specific package includes three freely configurable PID controllers, external analog inputs/outputs via CANopen, and engine cylinder temperature protection, making it ideal for more complex applications like cogeneration (CHP).
