2301A and D Load Sharing & Speed Controls
3 days, $1170 per person
The Woodward 2301A and the 2301D Load Sharing and Speed Controls are successive generations of the same control. Learn the operation, installation and adjustments of the 2301A (Analog) and the 2301D (Digital) Load Sharing Speed Control. Ideal for those who need the understanding of how the 2301A and 2301D control, actuators, and their associated accessories allow their engines to operate together, either on or off the infinite bus (utility). The hardware and software will be explained. During the course both hardware and software configuration / monitoring will be explained. The class will operate both controls connected to a closed loop test set.
CLASS OBJECTIVES
Upon successful completion of this course, the student will be able to:
- Demonstrate a strong foundation on governor control theory pertaining to the 2301A and 2301D family of controls.
- Field calibrate the controls and adjust actuators, linkage and accessories.
- Demonstrate an understanding of power management issues such as; soft loading and unloading, base loading, peak shaving, import/export control, and power transfer.
- Describe the concepts of basic adjustments, paralleling, and droop.
- Demonstrate an understanding of theory, methods of synchronizing, and paralleling of electrical generators.
