LS-521 Marine Controller Hardware Analysis
The LS-521 Marine Controller Module from Woodward featured here is made up of a unique series of hardware components and component specifications, which seems to include its:
- Eight (8) discrete outputs
- Six (6) relay outputs
- HMI display interface
- Phase shift system A protection
- Front panel mounting
It should be noted that the absence of any LED light indicators combined with the presence of an HMI operator interface display are the main differences between this LS-521 Marine and tis LS-511 Marine counterpart within the same LS-5 product series. Other differences do exist in mounting strategies.
