Description

The Woodward 8440-2052 H is a high-performance genset controller from the easYgen-3200 series, designed for versatile and reliable control and protection of generator sets in industrial power generation applications. It is engineered to handle complex distributed generation scenarios, including parallel load sharing of up to 32 gensets, segmented power systems with multiple utility supplies, and tie breaker control, making it highly applicable for power plants, commercial buildings, and critical infrastructure requiring dependable power management.

This controller features advanced true RMS voltage and current sensing for generator, bus, and mains measurements, considerably reducing sensitivity to electrical harmonics and improving accuracy. The 8440-2052 H supports multiple operation modes such as automatic, manual, stop, and load/no load test modes via discrete inputs. It provides comprehensive breaker control including slip frequency and phase matching synchronization, open/close control, and monitoring. Load transfer options such as open or closed transition, soft loading/unloading, and mains parallel operation enhance grid stability and power continuity.

The unit supports rich communication protocols including CAN-based SAE J1939 engine ECU communication, and Modbus RTU for SCADA integration. Configurable PID controllers allow custom control for fuel, voltage, reactive power, and other critical parameters. The front panel includes a 7-segment alphanumeric display with multiple LEDs and buttons for local monitoring and configuration. Multi-lingual support enables global usability.
