Engineering Advantages
-
Seamless Backward Compatibility: The 8273-140 shares the exact footprint and mounting configuration as the 2301E series. You can replace older units without modifying the existing panel cutout or wiring architecture.
-
Advanced Noise Immunity: Woodward engineered this module to withstand heavy electromagnetic interference (EMI) found in industrial engine rooms and power plants. It maintains a stable speed signal even in electrically "noisy" environments.
-
Digital Precision: Unlike older analog controllers that drift over time, the 2301D utilizes digital processing to eliminate temperature-induced calibration shifts. This ensures consistent load sharing across multiple generator sets.
-
Rapid System Integration: The Control Assistant software allows engineers to configure parameters, save settings, and clone configurations across multiple modules, significantly reducing commissioning time.
FAQs
Does this unit replace the analog 2301A series?
Yes. The 8273-140 2301D provides a digital upgrade path for the 2301A series. It fits the same space but offers superior stability and software-based tuning.
Is this product used or refurbished?
No. We guarantee this product is 100% Brand New and arrives in original factory packaging with full manufacturer integrity.
How does the unit handle parallel operation?
The module uses a load-sharing lines interface. It calculates the proportional load of the engine and communicates with other 2301D controllers to balance the total system load automatically.
What software do I need for configuration?
You use Woodward’s "Control Assistant" software. It connects via the serial port to adjust PID loops, speed ranges, and fuel limits.
