1. Power Supply
Voltage Range: 18–32 VDC (typically 24 VDC)

Power Consumption: ~10–15 W (operational)

2. Speed Sensing Input
Compatible Sensors: Magnetic pickup (MPU), proximity sensor, or frequency signal

Input Frequency Range: 50 Hz to 20 kHz (depends on sensor type)

3. Control Outputs
Actuator Drive:

Analog Output: 4–20 mA or 0–10 VDC (for proportional control valves)

PWM (Pulse Width Modulation): For direct actuator control

Load Sharing Capability: Isochronous (fixed speed) or Droop (speed decreases with load)

4. Control Performance
Speed Regulation Accuracy: ±0.25% to ±0.5% of setpoint

Adjustable PID Gains: Optimized for fast response and stability

Dynamic Response: Configurable for different engine/turbine characteristics

5. Communication & Configuration
RS-232/RS-485 Interface: For PC configuration or SCADA integration (optional)

Front-Panel Controls: Manual adjustment of speed, gain, and other parameters

6. Environmental & Mechanical
Operating Temperature: -40°C to +70°C

Humidity Resistance: 0–95% (non-condensing)

Enclosure Protection: IP20 (requires protective housing for harsh environments)

Functional Description
Speed Regulation

Maintains constant engine/turbine speed under varying loads.

Supports isochronous mode (for single-engine applications) or droop mode (for load sharing in parallel gensets).

Load Management

Enables load sharing between multiple engines in generator sets.

Adjustable droop settings for stable grid synchronization.

Protection & Diagnostics

Overspeed/Underspeed protection (shutdown or alarm).

Loss of speed sensor detection (failsafe operation).

Configurable fault responses (alarm, derate, or emergency stop).

Flexible I/O Options

Analog Inputs: For auxiliary process control (pressure, temperature, etc.).

Digital Inputs/Outputs: For start/stop commands, alarms, and status signals.

User Interface

LED indicators for system status (run, fault, etc.).

DIP switches/potentiometers for basic tuning (advanced settings via software).

Typical Applications
Power Generation: Standalone or parallel diesel/gas gensets.

Marine Propulsion: Engine speed control for ships and offshore systems.

Industrial Turbines: Steam/gas turbine regulation in process plants.
