Functional Features

  • Advanced Paralleling: Supports up to 32 generator sets with precise active and reactive load sharing.
  • Integrated Logic: Features LogicsManager™ and AnalogManager™ to handle complex logic without external PLCs.
  • Comprehensive Protection: Full mains, generator, and engine protection including over/under voltage, frequency, reverse power, and loss of excitation.
  • True RMS Measurement: High-accuracy voltage and current detection with low sensitivity to harmonics.

Application Scenarios
Ideal for data centers, hospitals, microgrids, utility grid-parallel applications (peak shaving, demand response), and large industrial standby power systems.

Performance Parameters

  • Power Supply: 8 to 40 VDC (nominal 24VDC).
  • Frequency Range: 40 to 85 Hz.
  • Ambient Storage Temperature: -30°C to +80°C.

Material Composition
Housed in a rugged, high-impact industrial enclosure with conformal-coated internal electronics to withstand harsh environments and electromagnetic interference.

Structural Characteristics

  • Mounting: Panel-mounted design with front-accessible connectors.
  • Dimensions: 282mm (W) x 217mm (H) x 99mm (D).
  • I/O: Extensive built-in digital and analog inputs/outputs.

Working Principle
The controller continuously samples generator and busbar electrical parameters, executing advanced synchronization algorithms to match phase, frequency, and voltage before closing the breaker. It then manages load sharing and protects the asset through real-time digital monitoring.

Installation Requirements
Must be mounted in a control panel with adequate ventilation. Ensure proper shielding and grounding of all communication and measurement cables to maintain EMC compliance.

Precautions for Use
Always use the Woodward ToolKit service tool for configuration and firmware updates. Ensure redundant Ethernet connections are properly terminated to guarantee network reliability.
