Woodward Governors
The SG Governor
hydraulic speed droop type governor is designed for use on small diesel, gas, or gasoline engines where isochronous control is not required. The design of the speed droop governor is such that the governor operates at a slower speed as engine load increases. It is through this characteristic that stability of the system is achieved and division of load between paralleled units is made possible.
The PSG Governor
is a pressure compensated, speed-droop or isochronous governor for controlling the speed of small diesel, gas, and gasoline engines, or small steam or industrial gas turbines. The governor is used to control engines or turbines driving alternators, dc generators, pumps, or compressors.
The 3161 mechanical-hydraulic governor
is designed for speed control of diesel engines, gas engines, or steam turbines. The variety of standard features and available options makes the governor ideal for use in a wide variety of applications which require work capacity of up to 24 Nxm (18 lb-ft). Applications include off- highway vehicles, industrial, marine, generator set, compressor, or pump drives.
The PG Dial and Lever governors
control the speed of diesel, gas, and dual-fuel engines in a variety of fields. Their applications include engines driving pumps, compressors, alternators, variable speed dc generators, marine propulsion units, and paper machines. Besides controlling speed, PG governors can also limit load and shut down the engine when the lubricating oil pressure fails. Woodward customizes each PG governor to meet the needs of the engine and the application.
