Features:
- 701A Digital Speed Control Module
- 701A w/ MPU, low-voltage power supply, 0-200 mA output
- The nominal power consumption at rated voltage is 8 watts
The Woodward 8280-192 is a high-precision digital governor designed for low- and medium-speed diesel, gasoline, and dual-fuel engines, belonging to the classic 701A series controllers.
It not only supports 4-20mA remote speed control and speed signal output, but also integrates comprehensive safety management functions such as engine overspeed protection, open-circuit sensor detection, and system self-diagnosis, making it a core control center ensuring stable engine operation around the clock.
The 8280-192 Woodward 701A Digital Speed Control Module may still be available for purchase and support from Moore Automated Company beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

Important Notice: Other accessories, manuals, cables, calibration data, software, etc. are not included with this equipment unless listed in the above stock item description. All prices are shown in USD.
The 701A Digital Speed Control controls the speed of reciprocating engines in mechanical drive or generator set service. The control includes an input for a 4 to 20 mA remote speed reference setting, an internal speed reference for local control of speed, and an auxiliary voltage input for load sensor connection in load sharing applications.
1.Dual Dynamics: All 701A controllers have two built-in sets of configurable dynamic parameters (e.g., PID gain under different load or fuel modes), which can be quickly switched via an external switch.
2.Handheld Programmer Compatibility: Field parameter calibration and diagnostics require a handheld programmer (model 9907-205).
3.Digital Control Logic: Compared to traditional analog speed controllers (e.g., model 2301A), the digital 701A controller offers higher steady-state accuracy, stronger drift suppression, and a wider range of alarm output configurations.
