Woodward 8440-2051 easYgen-3000 Genset Controller

Product Introduction

The Woodward 8440-2051 belongs to the easYgen-3000 series as a 3200 P2 model. It is designed for multiple unit operation applications including peak shaving and cogeneration. You can configure this controller through its front panel HMI or ToolKit software.

This model offers a primary voltage setting range from 50 to 650,000 Vac. Its current setting range goes from 1 to 32,000 A. Maximum power consumption per path stays below 0.15 W for energy efficiency.

Many facilities choose the 8440-2051 for its extensive protection features. It monitors engine overspeed, underspeed, frequency mismatch, and unbalanced generator load.

Key Technical Specifications

The Woodward 8440-2051 delivers reliable performance across global markets. Its power supply accepts 12/24 Vdc, with an operating range of 8 to 40 Vdc. This unit uses 1A CT inputs, making it suitable for different current transformer ratings.

Front panel dimensions measure 282W x 216H x 96D mm. The plastic housing with built-in HMI reduces weight while maintaining durability. Ambient temperature for operation ranges from -20 to 70°C (-4 to 158°F).

Additionally, this controller includes a real-time clock with battery backup. The event recorder captures up to 300 events for troubleshooting and analysis.

Multilingual HMI and Configuration

The built-in operator interface features a color LCD and soft keys. Configuration access is password protected with multiple security levels. The HMI supports 14 languages including English, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, Japanese, Chinese, Russian, Turkish, Polish, Slovakian, Finnish, and Swedish.

You can adjust setpoints locally or remotely via PC using ToolKit software. The interface shows real-time generator parameters clearly. Moreover, the soft keys provide intuitive navigation through menus.

Protection and Control Features

The 8440-2051 includes extensive protections for engine, generator, and mains. It detects engine overspeed, underspeed, and speed-frequency mismatch. Furthermore, it monitors cylinder temperature imbalances and phase shift or rotation field errors.

Control features support single unit and multi-unit operations. Load-dependent start and stop functions optimize fuel efficiency. Four operating modes are available: Automatic, Manual, Stop, and Test. Breaker control logic integrates seamlessly with most switchgear.

As a P2 model, the 8440-2051 includes three freely configurable PID controllers. These allow precise regulation of auxiliary systems like temperature or pressure.

Mechanical and Environmental Ratings

Front panel dimensions are 282W x 216H x 96D mm. This unit is designed for front panel mounting in a plastic enclosure. Ambient humidity should not exceed 95% non-condensing for safe operation.

Storage temperatures range from -30 to 80°C (-22 to 176°F). The controller operates reliably in most industrial environments without additional cooling.

Installation Guidelines

Mount the 8440-2051 securely into a panel cutout using the provided clips. Connect the 1A CT inputs to your current transformers with correct polarity. Wire the 12/24 Vdc power supply to the designated terminals.

Next, connect all discrete I/O and communication lines according to your system diagram. Verify all connections before applying power. Finally, configure the unit using the front HMI or ToolKit software. Refer to Woodward easYgen-3000 manual 37258P for complete instructions.
