Description

Woodward 8200-1302

Technical Specifications

  • Part Number: 8200-1302
  • Power Supply: LVDC (18–32 Vdc)
  • Safety Compliance: Marine / ATEX compliant
  • Temperature Range: -30°C < Tamb < 70°C

Functional Features

  • Hazardous Location Operation: Certified for use in I Class, Division 2, Groups A, B, C, D or Zone 2 non-hazardous locations.
  • Enhanced Shielding: Requires additional shielding (solid/flexible metal conduit or armored cable) grounded to the enclosure for marine applications.
  • Advanced Turbine Control: Manages complex steam and gas turbine parameters including extraction and admission pressures.

Application Scenarios
Mandatory for offshore platforms, marine propulsion, petrochemical plants, and any facility operating in explosive or highly corrosive atmospheres.

Performance Parameters

  • Environmental Tolerance: Operates reliably in extreme temperatures and high-humidity marine environments.
  • Explosion Protection: Ex ic nA IIC T4 Gc IP20 certified.

Material Composition
Ruggedized, marine-grade enclosure with specialized conformal coating to resist salt spray, sulfur, and corrosive gases.

Structural Characteristics

  • Marine Footprint: Maintains standard form factor but with enhanced environmental sealing.
  • Certification Markings: Clearly labeled with IECEx and CSA marine approvals.

Working Principle
Operates identically to the standard LVDC controller but utilizes isolated circuits and enhanced filtering to meet stringent ATEX and marine safety standards for hazardous areas.

Installation Requirements

  • Marine Wiring: Must install additional shielding grounded to the enclosure, exceeding standard manual requirements.
  • Compliance: Installation must comply with North American Class I, Division 2 or European Zone 2 wiring methods.

Usage Precautions

  • Peripheral Compatibility: Ensure all connected peripheral devices are also rated for the specific hazardous location.
  • Temperature Limits: Do not exceed the -30°C to 70°C ambient operating range.
