DESCRIPTION

Woodward easYgen-100 series is designed for single generator set used in isolated stand-by or prime

power applications. The controllers include purpose built algorithms and logic to start, stop, control, and

protect the genset, and open/close circuit breakers. Equipped with state of the art communication

interfaces, Woodward’s easYgen-100 Series AMF genset controllers provide exceptional versatility and

value for the OEM genset packagers.

The easYgen-100 Series is available in two variants:

• easYgen-600 compact start/stop controller offers a state of the art liquid crystal display (LCD),

adequate on-board I/Os and common industrial connectivity

• easYgen-800 advanced start/stop controller comes with a large LCD, I/O expansion possibility,

Ethernet and SD card connectivity

Easy-to-use software ToolKit-SC simplifies configuring the controllers for standard applications as well as

making it easy to customize it for individual solutions. Additionally, the module’s integral front panel

allows adjustment to several parameters.

Fuel Flow

Gas fuel flow is normally achieved by the accurate scheduling of the metering valve port area, based on

values for gas properties, operating pressures, and temperature. The GS-Series valve is factory calibrated

under flow and pressure conditions to provide an accurate valve metering to the input demand signal.

Flow equations for the valves are located in the O&M manual. These can be used to set up the valve for

any site-specific conditions.

Port Sizes

The GS-Series is available with five different port sizes to optimize valve performance for various flow and

pressure drop requirements. Standard port effective area sizes are:

GS40

• 0.30 in² (193.5 mm²)

• 0.75 in² (483.9 mm²)

GS50

• 1.0 in² (645.2 mm²)

• 1.5 in² (967.7 mm²)

• 2.0 in² (1290.3 mm²)

The standard metering ports are contoured to provide approximately square law relationships between

commanded position and effective area.

The on-board valve driver performs the following functions:

• Fast and accurate closed loop position control of the gas valve in response to the 4–20 mA or

CANopen/RT

Ethernet input command signal

• Actual valve position feedback via 4–20 mA or CANopen/RT Ethernet

• Independent remote shutdown input

• Valve/driver fault output

The driver includes protection and alarm indications for the following faults:

• Analog input out of range

• Feedback—open wire and short

• Input power out of range

• Position error

• Internal driver faults

• Actuator open/short

• Driver overcurrent

All faults are available through the CANopen/RT Ethernet connection or through an Ethernet Service

connection.
