8272-385

WOODWARD 8272‑385 is an EG‑P analog electronic speed governor manufactured by Woodward, USA. It is designed for speed and load regulation of diesel engines, gas engines and small turbines. It provides stable closed‑loop control with isochronous and droop modes for single‑unit or parallel‑operated generator sets. It is often matched with Woodward electric actuators (e.g. 8256‑021), widely used in power generation, marine, oil & gas, mining and industrial power systems.
