The WOODWARD 8923-2236 is a Replacement Isolation Valve Kit, specifically for the Right Hand side within a CPC-DX Dual Redundant Skid.
WOODWARD 8923-2236: Replacement Isolation Valve Kit (Right Hand)
The WOODWARD 8923-2236 is a crucial maintenance kit designed for Woodward’s CPC-DX Dual Redundant Skids. These skids are sophisticated systems used in critical industrial applications, such as steam turbine control, where high reliability and continuous operation are paramount.
Product Overview
This part number is an integral part of Woodward’s service and support offerings, enabling the efficient repair and maintenance of their redundant control systems.
- Product Type: Replacement Kit
- Manufacturer: Woodward
- Part Number: 8923-2236
- Component Replaced: Isolation Valve
- Position: Right Hand (this specifies its location within the CPC-DX skid’s hydraulic manifold)
- Compatibility: Designed for use with CPC-DX Dual Redundant Skids. These skids house two CPC-II (Current-to-Pressure Converter) units for fault-tolerant operation.
- Function of Isolation Valve: In a redundant system like the CPC-DX skid, isolation valves allow individual components (like one of the CPC-II units) to be isolated from the active hydraulic circuit for maintenance or replacement, without shutting down the entire system.
Detailed Product Description
The Woodward 8923-2236 kit provides the necessary components to replace the right-hand isolation valve within a CPC-DX Dual Redundant Skid. The CPC-DX (Current-to-Pressure Converter – Dual Transfer) skid is designed to ensure maximum uptime by having two CPC-II units. If one CPC-II fails, control can seamlessly transfer to the other. The isolation valves are key to this functionality, enabling a faulty CPC-II to be taken offline for service while the redundant unit maintains control.
- Enabling On-Line Maintenance: The primary benefit of this kit is to facilitate the on-line repair or replacement of a CPC-II unit within the CPC-DX skid. Without proper isolation, maintenance on one side of a redundant system would typically require a full shutdown.
- Hydraulic Integrity: The isolation valve ensures that when one CPC-II is serviced, the hydraulic circuit remains sealed and operational through the other CPC-II.
- Maintaining Redundancy: By allowing for the repair of one side of the redundant system while the other remains active, this kit helps restore the full redundancy of the CPC-DX skid, ensuring continued high reliability.
- Quality Components: As a Woodward OEM part, the kit ensures that the replacement valve meets the original specifications for pressure, flow, and durability, critical for the precise and reliable operation of the turbine control system.

Typical Use
The WOODWARD 8923-2236 Isolation Valve Kit is typically used by trained maintenance personnel or authorized service providers in:
- Power Generation Plants: For the routine maintenance or repair of CPC-DX skids that control steam turbines, ensuring minimal downtime.
- Industrial Facilities: In any critical process that relies on highly available and continuously operating single-acting hydraulic actuators driven by a CPC-DX system.
- Restoring Redundancy: After a CPC-II unit has been replaced or serviced, this kit helps ensure that the isolation valve for that side functions correctly, allowing the system’s full redundancy to be restored.
