Key Specifications
1. Power Supply
Voltage: 18–32 VDC (typical 24 VDC)

Power Consumption: ~15 W (operational)

2. Speed Sensing Input
Sensor Types: Magnetic pickup (MPU), Hall-effect sensor, or frequency input

Frequency Range: 10 Hz to 20 kHz (depends on sensor)

3. Output Signals
Actuator Drive:

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

PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) for direct actuator control

Load Sharing: Isochronous (equal load) or Droop (speed vs. load) mode

4. Control Performance
Speed Regulation Accuracy: ±0.25% of setpoint (typical)

Adjustable PID Gains: Allows tuning for optimal transient response

Stability: Supports fast load changes without overshoot

5. Communication & Programming
RS-232/RS-485 Serial Port: For configuration and monitoring

Optional Modbus RTU Protocol: Integration with SCADA/DCS systems

Front-Panel Keypad & Display: For local parameter adjustments

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

Humidity: 0–95% (non-condensing)

Enclosure Rating: Typically IP20 (requires protective housing)

Functional Description
Speed Control

Maintains precise engine speed under varying loads.

Adjustable droop (for generator applications) or isochronous (constant speed) modes.

Load Sharing (Parallel Operation)

Enables multiple engines to share load proportionally in genset applications.

Supports kW (kilowatt) load balancing for synchronized generators.

Protection & Alarms

Overspeed/Underspeed shutdown

Loss of speed signal detection

Configurable fault responses (alarm, derate, or shutdown).

Flexible I/O Options

Analog inputs for process control (e.g., pressure, temperature).

Digital inputs for start/stop, fault reset, etc.

User Interface

LCD display for real-time monitoring (speed, load, alarms).

Password-protected settings to prevent unauthorized changes.

Typical Applications
Power Generation: Genset control (standalone or parallel).

Marine: Main propulsion and auxiliary engine control.

Industrial: Gas compressors, pumps, and turbine control.
