The Woodward 8440 - 2028 is a digital I/O expansion board, which is designed to increase the number of digital inputs and outputs for Woodward Easygen series controllers and GCP - 31/32 packages equipped with option SC10 or SC09woodward.com. Here is the detailed information:
- Brand: Woodward
- Model: 8440 - 2028
- Type: Digital I/O expansion board
- Origin: USA
- Product Series: Related to Easygen series controllers and GCP - 31/32 packages
- Power Supply: It usually has a wide operating voltage range, such as 10 - 30V DC.
- Communication Interface: Supports CAN bus communication, which can communicate with the main genset controller through the CAN bus. Some sources also mention that it may support Modbus RTU and CAN open, which is convenient for integration with other devices or systems.
- Input/Output Configuration:
- Discrete Inputs: There are 8 configurable discrete alarm inputs, and each input can be assigned a name, alarm class, NO/NC (normally open/normally closed) configuration, and time - delaywoodward.com.
- Relay Outputs: It is equipped with 8 configurable form C relays with potential - free contacts.
- Dimensions: Approximately 14.2 cm x 7.2 cm x 6.5 cm.
- Weight: About 0.5 kg.
- Flexible Configuration: Each input can be configured with a name, alarm class, NO/NC configuration, and time - delay, and the configuration of the board is carried out through the relay manager in the main controller and transmitted to the 8440 - 2028woodward.com. It can also be directly configured via a DPC (direct configuration cable) and software using a PC or laptop, which is suitable for extensive configuration applications or when multiple similar units need to be set upwoodward.com.
- Compatibility: It has good compatibility and can work with Woodward Easygen series controllers and GCP - 31/32 packages, and one or more units can be connected to genset controllers.
It is suitable for various industrial automation and control applications, which can expand the digital I/O functions of relevant control systems and improve the flexibility and scalability of the system. For example, it can be used in power generation systems, industrial manufacturing equipment control, and other scenarios that require precise digital signal input and output control.
