Product Advantages and Features WOODWARD 8273-1017

  1. High-Precision Speed Regulation, Ensuring Stable Equipment Operation

    WOODWARD 8273-1017 adopts a dual-loop PID control algorithm optimized for engine characteristics, with a speed control accuracy of ±0.25% of the rated speed. It can quickly respond to load changes of generator sets and marine propulsion engines, effectively suppressing speed fluctuations caused by sudden load increases or decreases, and ensuring long-term stable operation of the equipment.

  2. Multi-Signal Compatibility, Flexible System Integration

    WOODWARD 8273-1017 supports a variety of speed sensor types, including magnetic pickup and Hall effect sensors, and is compatible with 4-20mA analog signals for pressure, temperature, and other parameters. The built-in RS-485 communication interface can realize data interaction with PLC, DCS, and upper computer systems, without the need for additional protocol conversion modules, which greatly reduces the difficulty of system integration.

  3. Strong Anti-Interference and Explosion-Proof Performance, Adapting to Harsh Working Conditions

    WOODWARD 8273-1017 uses industrial-grade reinforced circuit design, with built-in multi-level EMI filtering and surge protection circuits, which can resist electromagnetic interference, voltage fluctuations, and vibration impacts in industrial sites. It has ATEX explosion-proof certification, which can be applied to oil and gas extraction sites, chemical plants, and other hazardous areas, ensuring safe and reliable operation.

  4. Intelligent Fault Diagnosis and Easy Maintenance

    WOODWARD 8273-1017 has a built-in comprehensive fault self-diagnosis function, which can monitor sensor disconnection, output short circuit, power supply abnormality, and other faults in real time, and send alarm signals through relay outputs or communication interfaces. The module supports online parameter configuration and firmware upgrade, and maintenance personnel can complete debugging work through a portable configuration tool, which shortens equipment downtime.

Application Cases

  1. Diesel Generator Set Speed Control System

    In the standby diesel generator set system of a data center, WOODWARD 8273-1017 serves as the core speed control component, which collects the speed signal of the generator set through a magnetic pickup sensor, adjusts the fuel injection quantity in real time according to the load change of the data center, and maintains the speed stability of the generator set within ±0.25% of the rated value. Its strong anti-interference performance ensures that the generator set can start and run stably in the complex electromagnetic environment of the data center.

  2. Marine Main Engine Propulsion Control

    In the main engine propulsion system of a cargo ship, WOODWARD 8273-1017 is connected with the ship’s navigation control system, which adjusts the speed of the marine diesel engine according to the navigation instructions, and realizes the stepless speed regulation of the ship from berthing to full speed. Its wide temperature operating range and vibration resistance can adapt to the harsh marine environment of high humidity, salt spray, and strong vibration.

  3. Gas Turbine Control in Oil and Gas Fields

    In the gas turbine power generation system of an oil and gas extraction site, WOODWARD 8273-1017 monitors the speed of the gas turbine in real time, and cooperates with the fuel control valve to adjust the fuel supply, ensuring that the gas turbine operates in the optimal efficiency range. Its explosion-proof performance meets the safety requirements of hazardous areas in oil and gas fields, avoiding safety accidents caused by equipment failure.

Selection Suggestions

  1. For the speed control scenarios of generator sets, marine main engines, and gas turbines in harsh environments such as oil and gas fields and marine engineering, WOODWARD 8273-1017 is preferred for its high control accuracy, strong anti-interference performance, and explosion-proof characteristics.
  2. When selecting, it is necessary to match the corresponding speed sensor type (magnetic pickup or Hall effect) according to the engine model, and configure the relay output function according to the fault protection requirements.
  3. For applications in hazardous areas, it is necessary to confirm that the module meets the local explosion-proof certification standards, and cooperate with explosion-proof junction boxes and wiring during installation.

Precautions

  1. When installing WOODWARD 8273-1017, wear an anti-static wristband to prevent static electricity from damaging the internal circuit board; ensure that the wiring of the speed sensor is shielded to avoid signal interference caused by electromagnetic radiation.
  2. Parameter configuration must be carried out in accordance with the WOODWARD official manual. The PID parameters should be adjusted according to the engine load characteristics, and it is prohibited to modify the parameters without authorization to avoid equipment failure.
  3. During long-term operation, regularly check the connection tightness of the power supply and signal lines to prevent poor contact caused by vibration; regularly back up the configuration parameters to avoid data loss due to module damage.
  4. In marine and coastal applications, it is necessary to perform regular anti-corrosion treatment on the module backplane and wiring terminals to prevent corrosion caused by salt spray.
