Description
Woodward EGCP-3/8406-113LS
Technical Specifications
- Part Number: 8406-113LS.
- Series: EGCP-3 with LS-5.
- Synchronization: LS-5×1 / LS-5×2 modules included.
- Communication: CANopen for LS-5 to EASYGEN interface.
Functional Features
- Dedicated Sync Control: LS-5 modules handle precise synchronization of mains and tie breakers.
- Reduced Wiring: Single CAN bus connection between EASYGEN and LS-5 modules.
- Flexible Configuration: LS-5 can be configured as sync check, mains control, or tie-breaker control.
- Enhanced Reliability: Distributed intelligence reduces controller processing load.
Application Scenarios
Essential for facilities with multiple utility feeds, automatic transfer schemes, and complex bus segmentation.
Performance Parameters
- Sync Accuracy: ±0.25° phase angle.
- Response Time: Fast breaker closure timing.
Material Composition
Standard EGCP-3 construction with additional LS-5 modules and CAN bus wiring.
Structural Characteristics
- LS-5 Mounting: Dedicated DIN rail or panel mount for LS-5 modules.
- Display: Optional LS-5 local display for synchronization status.
Working Principle
The EASYGEN controller communicates setpoints to the LS-5 module via CANopen. The LS-5 module independently monitors bus voltages and closes the breaker when synchronization criteria are met.
Installation Requirements
Ensure CAN bus is properly terminated and shielded. Verify LS-5 voltage and frequency inputs are connected to the correct bus segments.
Precautions for Use
Do not mix different LS-5 firmware versions on the same CAN bus. Test synchronization sequences thoroughly before parallel operation.
