About the 8200-1301

The 8200-1301 is a Woodward 505 Digital Governor designed to be used with split range or single actuators. This is one of three versions available in this series, the other two being the 8200-1300 and the 8200-1302. The 8200-1301 is primarily used for AC/DC (88 to 264 V AC or 90 to 150 V DC) ordinary location compliance power. It is field programmable and uses menu-driven software for the control of mechanical drive applications and/or generators. This governor can be configured as part of a DCS (distributed control system) or it can be designed as a standalone unit. 

The 8200-1301 has several different normal operating modes. This includes a configuration mode, a run mode, and a service mode. The configuration mode will force hardware into the I/O lock and put all outputs into a state of being inactive. Configuration mode is typically only used during the original configuration of equipment. Run mode allows for normal operations from start-up to shut down. Service mode allows for calibration and adjustments either when the unit is shut down or during normal operation. 

The front panel of the 8200-1301 is designed to offer multiple levels of access to allow for tuning, operating, calibration, and configuration of the turbine. All turbine control functions can be performed from the front panel. It includes logic algorithms to control, stop, start, and protect the turbine using a number of input buttons.
