WOODWARD 2301A Forward Acting Speed Control 9907-014
Description:
The 2301A Load Sharing and Speed Controls are designed for use in electric generator systems where multi-unit load sharing is desired. 2301A controls may be used with diesel, gas or gasoline engines, or steam or gas turbines.
The control is housed in a sheet-metal chassis and consists of a single printed circuit board. All potentiometers are accessible from the front of the chassis.
The 2301A Speed Control provides control in the isochronous mode with droop available through an externally wired potentiometer.
The isochronous mode is used for constant speed of the controlled prime mover as long as it is able to provide the load. Isochronous is also used when load sharing with a Woodward load sensor.
External droop is used for speed control as a function of load when a prime mover is operating on an infinite bus or when two or more prime movers are in parallel operation.
