9905-537

Woodward 9905‑537 is a high‑performance digital speed‑load governor in the 9905 series, tailored for diesel/gas engines, steam and gas turbines, and generator sets. It delivers precise speed regulation, load management, overspeed protection and fault diagnostics, widely used in power generation, petrochemical, oil & gas and marine heavy‑duty industries.

Description

Core Functions

  1. Dual control modes: isochronous mode for single‑unit constant‑speed operation; droop mode for multi‑unit parallel load sharing.

  2. High‑precision PID closed‑loop regulation with critical speed avoidance, valve stroke limit, startup ramp control and load rejection protection.

  3. Independent overspeed monitoring, real‑time self‑diagnosis, fault logging and multi‑channel relay alarm outputs.

  4. 4‑20 mA analog remote setpoint input for seamless integration with DCS/PLC systems.

  5. Local panel configuration and online tuning via dedicated Woodward software.
