Product details

The Woodward Model 8327-2603 is a panel-mounted over-acceleration detection device that belongs to the Protech-GII series, a series renowned for its ability to safeguard turbines of any size. This device is designed to seamlessly integrate with turbines powered by steam, gas, or water, ensuring their safe shutdown in the event of excessive acceleration.

At the core of its functionality, the Model 8327-2603 employs a two-out-of-three voting architecture, ensuring redundancy and reliability. This architecture, coupled with two dual relay outputs, allows for swift and decisive action in the case of an over-acceleration event. Each of the three independent relays is equipped with individual alarms, providing clear and unambiguous indications of any potential issues.

The device's sulfur-resistant conformal coating makes it suitable for use in harsh Class 3C2 environments, ensuring its durability and longevity even in the most challenging conditions. Additionally, it meets the international standard of IEC 721-3-3 1994, further testament to its compliance with global safety and performance standards.

The Model 8327-2603's modular design is a key feature, allowing for one module to be serviced or repaired while the others continue to function. This modularity not only enhances uptime but also simplifies maintenance procedures. Furthermore, the device can be configured to run over-speed tests using an internal generator, with the results logged for subsequent analysis.

Ease of repair and replacement is further facilitated by the backplane design, which simplifies access to internal components. Beyond acceleration detection, this safety device also incorporates open-wire MPU detection, providing an additional layer of safety and reliability.

Communication with the Model 8327-2603 is seamless, thanks to its Modbus communication capabilities. This allows for seamless integration with existing systems and enables remote monitoring and control. Additionally, the device supports both high voltage and low voltage power inputs, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of power sources.

In summary, the Woodward Model 8327-2603 is a robust and reliable over-acceleration detection device that offers comprehensive protection for turbines of all sizes and types. Its modular design, redundant architecture, and advanced detection capabilities make it a standout choice for industrial safety applications.
