8915-775

Woodward 8915‑775 is a heavy‑duty 2301A Series digital electronic speed and load controller. It is specially developed for diesel/gas engines, steam & gas turbines and generator sets. With high‑precision speed governing, parallel operation capability, load sharing and overspeed protection, it is widely applied in power generation, marine, oil‑gas, chemical and mining industrial fields.

Description

Core Functions

  1. High‑precision closed‑loop speed control to keep stable frequency under fluctuating loads

  2. Isochronous mode for single‑unit gensets; droop mode for multi‑unit parallel running

  3. Grid synchronization, load distribution, remote setpoint via 4‑20 mA / 1‑5 VDC analog inputs

  4. Integrated overspeed protection, self‑diagnosis and fault alarm outputs

  5. Direct drive for standard Woodward fuel actuators and turbine control valves

  6. Parameter tuning and monitoring via dedicated Woodward configuration software
