Overview
The Woodward 9907-345 belongs to the ProTech 203 overspeed protection series. It monitors prime mover speed using three magnetic pickups and activates a trip relay during overspeed. With its two-out-of-three voting system, the controller ensures reliable shutdown even if one unit fails.
Key Features
- Three independent speed-sensing channels for redundancy
- Two-out-of-three trip logic improves system safety
- Real-time digital display of actual and highest probe speed
- Online modular replacement possible without shutting down all units
- LED indicators for functional status, trip alarms, and MPU failure
Applications
The ProTech 203 series offers two versions:
- De-energize-to-trip configuration (recommended for safety)
- Energize-to-trip configuration (not advised due to power-loss risks)
