Product Description

This unit is a part of the Woodward Inc. series of units within their wide array of synchronizer modules for three-phase generators. The generator systems that units such as this one, the 8440-1668, can be installed into are powered by alternating current, and are outfitted with a compatible set of components; a speed control module, and an automatic voltage regulator. The 8440-1668 model is designed with several functionalities when it comes to generator synchronization. It is able to provide operators with the option of either simultaneous automatic slip frequency synching or phase matching when voltage matching occurs. The unit is provided with two-phase sensory capabilities, used on the generator system and the connected utility bus. The operational modes a user is able to select from includes four distinct parameter adjustment modes (Check, Off, Permissive, and Run). The 8440-1668 is outfitted with an isolated operational mode, offering users with voltage and frequency control, and a dead bus operational mode that closes the unit’s circuit breaker on-demand. The control outputs of the unit includes a discrete raise and lower controls for speed and voltage.
