ECON-4 is digital speed governor dedicated for speed control of gas or diesel engines. ECON-4 guarantees precise and fast speed control in variable load applications (island operation) and precise load control in network parallel operation. ECON-4 can control different types of actuators (linear, bridge, low voltage **) providing up to 8A continuous ** which makes it a general speed controller for almost every actuator on the market for engines in range up to few MWel. Additionally ECON-4 can be connected with the gen-set control system via CAN line which significantly reduce and simplify the wiring and commissioning work. Technical description: ? 8-36Vdc power supply range ? 2 types of outputs for actuator control: o Power output with max current of 8 A continuous – dedicated for direct interface to actuators, Linear w/o position feedback and Bridge actuators supported (GAC, Heinzmann, Woodward) o Low power outputsL 0-10VDC/0-20mA ** for smart actuators or stepper motor drivers ? Speed control possible in 3 modes – Binary / Analogue / Data ? IP 20 ? Operating temperature: -30…+70°C Features: ? Isochronous/droop mode ? Actuator position feedback utilisation ? Different settings for island and network parallel operation to suit the required control parameters ? Start actuator position limitation and maximum actuator position limitation fully adjustable Suitable for following applications: ? Single speed applications, e.g. 1500 or 1800 RPM ? Network parallel operation, typically CHPs ? Variable load applications in Island operation, e.g. Prime power generation in Oil&Gas industry, etc.
