Product Description

Up to 32 connected gensets can be controlled with this control unit using automatic sequencing. Woodward easYgen 3000 model 8440-2050 offers an extensive set of features for a range of genset control applications, including peak shaving, cogeneration, AMF, and more. This control unit has a built-in HMI complete with a color LCD and soft keys. Configuration may be done via the 8440-2050 operator interface or via PC (using ToolKit software).

Woodward part 8440-2050 has configurable discrete and analog inputs and outputs. This easYgen controller has a maximum of 12 discrete outputs, and a maximum of 16 external discrete I/Os via CANopen. Analog inputs are maxed at 3, with analog outputs (+/- 10V, +/- 20mA, PWM) maxed at 2.

The 8440-2050 model offers generator, engine, and mains protections. A magnetic / switching pickup speed input is used to monitor for overspeed/underspeed conditions. It has a measuring frequency of 50/60 Hz (40 to 85 Hz). This genset controller also monitors for conditions such as speed and frequency mismatch, auxiliary excitation failure, and unbalanced load. Woodward easYgen 3000 manual 37258P has complete details on all these features and more.

Part 8440-2050 has a 12/24 VDC (8 to 40 VDC) power supply. This unit is safe for operation in environments with an ambient temperature range of -20 to 70 °C ( -4 to 158 °F), though it may be stored in temps between -30 and 80 °C ( -22 to 176 °F). Ambient humidity should not exceed 95% (non-condensing). This model is designed for front panel mounting and has 5A CT inputs.
