Woodward 8406/1/31 Load Sharing Model – Precision Engine Generator Control

The Woodward 8406/1/31 Load Sharing Model delivers advanced engine generator control for industrial power generation applications. Engineered for reliable load distribution and speed regulation, this control package ensures optimal performance across multiple generator sets operating in parallel configurations.

Technical Specifications

Model Number: 8406/1/31
Control Type: Load Sharing & Speed Control
Input Voltage: 24 VDC nominal
Operating Temperature: -40°C to +70°C
Protection Rating: IP20 (panel mount)
Communication: Analog signal interface
Weight: 1 kg

Key Applications

This control package excels in demanding industrial environments where precise load management is critical:

Multi-generator parallel operation in data centers and hospitals
Industrial facility backup power systems requiring seamless load transfer
Marine propulsion and auxiliary power generation
Oil & gas platform power distribution networks
Manufacturing plants with continuous power requirements

Performance Benefits

The 8406/1/31 addresses common challenges in generator set coordination. Its proportional load sharing algorithm prevents single-unit overload while maintaining system stability during load transitions. The integrated speed droop control ensures frequency stability across the power network, reducing mechanical stress on prime movers and extending equipment lifespan.

Integration & Compatibility

Compatible with diesel and gas engine-driven generators from major manufacturers, this control package integrates with existing governor systems through standard analog interfaces. Installation requires minimal wiring modifications, and the compact design fits standard control panel cutouts.

Common Questions

Q: Can this control multiple generator sets simultaneously?
A: Yes, the 8406/1/31 supports parallel operation of multiple generator sets with proportional load distribution across all units.

Q: What governor systems are compatible?
A: This model works with electronic and mechanical governors accepting 4-20mA or 0-10VDC control signals.

Q: Does it include synchronization capability?
A: Load sharing is provided; synchronization requires a separate synchronizer module such as the Woodward SPM-A series.

Q: What is the typical response time for load changes?
A: Load adjustment response is typically within 2-3 seconds depending on governor characteristics and engine inertia.

Warranty & Support

Every Woodward 8406/1/31 includes a 12-month warranty covering manufacturing defects and component failures. Technical support and application engineering assistance are available to ensure successful integration into your power generation system.
