Woodward Easy Gen-350 8440-1799 gear motor actuator set controllers

Woodward Easy Gen-350 (Model 8440-1799) is an advanced generator controller developed by Woodward, designed for industrial and commercial backup power systems. The following are its core features and technical parameters:

1. Functional features

Automatic control: supports automatic start/stop, AC switching (AMF function), load management and fault protection of generator sets.

Parallel control: can realize synchronous parallel operation of multiple generator sets, support load balancing and priority scheduling.

Engine monitoring: real-time monitoring of engine parameters (oil temperature, water temperature, oil pressure, speed), with crankshaft sequencing and preheating control functions.

Generator protection: provides electrical protection functions such as overvoltage, undervoltage, overcurrent, frequency abnormality, reverse power, etc.

Data recording: built-in event recorder (15 records), recording start time, shutdown reason, fault code, etc.

Communication interface: supports Modbus RTU/TCP, CANopen protocol, remote monitoring and configuration.

2. Technical parameters

Power supply: 12/24VDC (optional), working range 8.5-32VDC.

Input and output:

Digital input: 8 channels (configurable as dry contact or wet contact).

Digital output: 6 relay outputs (5A@250VAC/30VDC).

Analog input: 4 channels (0-20mA or 0-10V).

Measurement accuracy:

Voltage: ±0.5% (true effective value RMS).

Frequency: ±0.1Hz.

Current: ±1% (external CT required).

Ambient temperature: -25°C to +65°C (operating), -40°C to +85°C (storage).

Protection level: IP65 (panel), IP20 (back).

Display: 3.5-inch color LCD, support touch operation, can display real-time parameters, alarm information and configuration menu.

3. Application scenarios

Backup power supply: hospitals, data centers, communication base stations, industrial plants and other scenarios with high requirements for power continuity.

Main power supply: independent power generation systems in remote areas or areas with unstable power grids.

Parallel operation: multiple generator sets are connected in parallel to achieve load balancing and redundant backup.

4. Configuration and installation

Software tools: Use Woodward Easy Gen Configurator software for parameter configuration, supporting customized protection thresholds, startup logic and communication protocols.

Installation method: Panel installation, vertical installation is recommended to ensure good heat dissipation.

Certification: CE, UL, CSA certification, in line with international safety standards.

5. Comparison with other models

Compared with Easy Gen-320 (8440-1798):

350 supports more complex parallel control and load sharing algorithms.

350 has a color touch screen and a more intuitive user interface.

350 has richer communication interfaces (supports TCP/IP).
