    Woodward Peak200 8200-1501 - Intermediate Technical Document
    Woodward Peak200 (8200-1501)
    Engine & Generator Control Module | Intermediate Technical Document | Revision 1.0 | Date: 2026-02-28
    1. Module Overview
    The Woodward Peak200 (8200-1501) is a compact, microprocessor-based control module designed for governing and protecting reciprocating engines, gas turbines, and generator sets in industrial, marine, and power generation applications.
    Featuring advanced adaptive control algorithms, the Peak200 8200-1501 provides precise speed regulation, load sharing, and protection functions (over-speed, under-speed, low oil pressure, high coolant temperature) with seamless integration to Woodward's digital control systems.

    3. Installation & Configuration
    1 Mount the Peak200 module to a metal panel (DIN rail or direct mount) with minimum 10cm clearance for ventilation.
    2 Connect MPU (magnetic pickup) to speed input terminals – use shielded cable (twisted pair) to minimize noise.
    3 Wire analog inputs (temperature/pressure sensors) and output signals (actuators/valves) to labeled terminal blocks.
    4 Apply 24V DC power to terminals (+/-) and verify power LED illuminates (green = normal).
    5 Configure speed setpoint, droop, and protection parameters via Woodward PC Configurator software or local keypad.
    6 Perform load test and speed regulation calibration; verify protection functions (over-speed trip, alarm outputs).
    Important Safety & Operation Notes
    • Disconnect all power sources before wiring or servicing the Peak200 module to prevent electrical shock or unintended engine operation.
    • Verify MPU gap (0.5-1.0mm) to engine flywheel teeth to ensure accurate speed measurement and prevent over-speed trips.
    • Calibrate speed and load control parameters quarterly for critical power generation applications.
    • Do not exceed the maximum current rating (2A) for relay outputs to avoid module damage and safety hazards.
    • Store configuration backups to a USB drive or Woodward Cloud to enable quick module replacement.
    • Inspect wiring connections annually for corrosion (especially in marine environments) and retorque terminal screws (1.2 Nm).
