It is a high-performance electronic speed governor and overspeed detection system in the ProTech-GII series of Woodward Corporation.

Basic Information

• Brand: WOODWARD
• Type: Electronic governor, overspeed detection system
• Power Supply Voltage: 90-264VAC or 100-150VDC
• Rated Power: 30W
• Frequency Range: 47-63Hz or 50-60Hz
• Overall Dimensions: 330x486x153mm

Functional Features

• Precise Control: It adopts advanced sensing technology and signal processing technology to achieve high-precision speed control with an accuracy of ±0.1%, ensuring stable equipment operation.
• Overspeed Protection: It can monitor the turbine speed in real time. Once the speed exceeds the preset value, it can quickly issue an alarm or trigger a protection action to prevent equipment damage.
• Multi-Functional Detection: In addition to overspeed detection, it also has acceleration detection and MPU detection functions. It can detect turbine acceleration and issue a trip command, while verifying whether the MPU works normally.
• Modular Design: It adopts a three-module design, and the backplane has a plug-and-play structure. Users can easily replace modules when the equipment is running, which is convenient for maintenance and upgrading and reduces maintenance costs.
• Communication Function: It supports protocols such as Modbus and Profibus, and can be connected to PLC/DCS systems to realize data communication and remote control.
• Anti-Pollution Capability: It uses a special conformal coating material, which has good protection performance against H2S and sulfur dioxide gases, making it suitable for harsh industrial environments.

Application Fields

• Industrial Automation: Used for engine control, mechanical drive, etc.
• Energy Industry: Such as power plants, oil and gas industries. It can monitor and protect equipment like generators, steam turbines, and compressors.
• Transportation: Suitable for ships, automobiles, etc. It ensures the safe operation of equipment such as ship turbines.
• Chemical Industry: Used for the control and protection of chemical equipment.
• Metallurgical Industry: Such as the protection of turbines in steel plants.
