Description

Woodward BL20400 Actuator

Product Dimensions：

The Woodward Engine Control Module (ECM) is a high-performance, microprocessor-based controller designed to manage the critical functions of industrial engines. Whether for power generation, marine propulsion, or oil and gas applications, Woodward ECMs are industry standards for reliability and precision.

Here is a detailed breakdown of the product.

1. Product Detailed Description

A Woodward ECM acts as the “brain” of the engine. It integrates various control functions—such as fuel injection, ignition timing, air-throttle management, and speed governing—into a single, ruggedized unit.

These modules are designed to interface with a wide range of sensors and actuators to maintain optimal engine performance under varying loads and environmental conditions. Most modern Woodward ECMs (like the LEC, EGS, or Apex series) feature programmable logic, allowing them to be customized for specific engine types (Gas, Diesel, or Dual-fuel).

2. Product Parameters (Typical)

While specific parameters vary by model (e.g., OH6, ECM-555, or 2301D), common technical specifications include:

3. Product Advantages

• Precision Control: Utilizes advanced algorithms to ensure high fuel efficiency and low emissions.

• Extreme Durability: Built to withstand harsh industrial environments, including high vibration, thermal cycling, and chemical exposure.

• Flexibility: Woodward’s MotoHawk or GAP software allows developers to create custom control logic quickly.

• Integrated Protection: Features built-in diagnostics and “fail-safe” modes to prevent engine damage during component failure.

• Global Support: As a market leader, Woodward parts and technical support are available worldwide.

4. Application Areas

Woodward ECMs are utilized across several heavy-duty industries:

• Power Generation: Load sharing and speed control for backup generators and microgrids.

• Marine Industry: Main propulsion engine control and auxiliary power management for ships.

• Oil & Gas: Control for gas compressors and pumps in remote pipeline stations.

• Mobile Equipment: Engine management for large mining trucks and construction machinery.

• Renewable Energy: Control systems for biogas and hydrogen-blend engines.

5. Important Considerations (Precautions)

• Grounding & Wiring: Improper grounding is the #1 cause of ECM failure. Ensure shielded cables are used for signal lines to prevent EMI (Electromagnetic Interference).

• Firmware Updates: Always ensure the firmware version matches your specific engine configuration. Incorrect mapping can lead to engine “hunting” or permanent damage.

• Environmental Protection: While ruggedized, the connectors should be inspected regularly for corrosion or moisture ingress.

• Electrostatic Discharge (ESD): When handling the module during installation, use ESD protection to avoid frying internal circuits.

• Voltage Spikes: Ensure the power supply is regulated; high-voltage surges from faulty alternators can bypass internal protection.
