Description
WOODWARD 8200-1300 Digital Turbine Governor Controller
The
WOODWARD 8200-1300 is a next-generation digital control system designed for steam turbine applications, combining advanced functionality with user-friendly operation. Part of the 505D series, this controller features an integrated graphical HMI screen with multilingual support (including Chinese), enabling real-time monitoring, diagnostics, and configuration. Key capabilities include adaptive PID control, dual-channel redundancy, and compatibility with Woodward’s ProAct™ software for remote management. Ideal for power generation, oil & gas, and industrial processes, the
8200-1300 optimizes speed regulation, load sharing, and safety-critical operations.

- Adaptive Control: OptiTune™ PID technology automatically adjusts for peak performance, reducing overshoot during startups by 20%.
- Dual-Channel Redundancy: Ensures 99.99% uptime with seamless switchover in critical systems.
- Remote Monitoring: Supports Woodward’s RemoteView tool for real-time diagnostics and control via PC or mobile devices.
- Modular Design: Expandable I/O via CANbus for integration with actuators (e.g., Varistroke II) and synchronizers (DSLC-II).
- Energy Efficiency: Improves fuel efficiency by up to 7% compared to legacy controllers.
- Power Generation: Controls steam turbines in combined-cycle power plants.
- Oil & Gas: Manages turbine-driven compressors in offshore platforms.
- Industrial Automation: Optimizes speed in pump and fan systems.
Case Study:
A European power plant upgraded from legacy 505 controllers to the 8200-1300, reducing maintenance costs by 35% and improving load response time by 40%.
Compared to similar controllers:
- Compact Design: 15% smaller and lighter than alternatives, ideal for space-constrained installations.
- Extended Temperature Range: Operates reliably in extreme environments (e.g., -30°C to +70°C).
- Integrated Safety: Meets SIL 3 requirements with built-in fault detection and protection.
- Redundancy Needs: Choose dual-channel models for systems requiring high availability.
- I/O Complexity: Pair with Woodward’s 8290-185 expansion modules for advanced I/O configurations.
- Remote Access: Opt for units with Ethernet connectivity for cloud-based monitoring.
- EMI Shielding: Install in a grounded enclosure to prevent interference.
- Cooling: Ensure ambient temperatures remain below 60°C to avoid thermal stress.
- Software Updates: Regularly update firmware via Control Assistant to access new features.
- Calibration: Perform annual checks using Woodward’s certified tools.
