1790-9026 Woodward turbine controller

The 1790-9026 is a microprocessor-based digital governor controller produced by Woodward, belonging to its classic 505 series.
It is primarily designed for speed control and protection of steam turbines. Below is a detailed introduction to this product:

I. Product Overview

Brand and Model: Woodward 1790-9026
Series: 505 Series Digital Governor
Type: Microprocessor-based controller
Purpose: Specifically designed for steam turbines to control their speed and provide overspeed protection.

II. Core Functions

Speed Control:
- 1790-9026 Precisely controls the speed of steam turbines by adjusting steam inlet flow.
- Supports single-range or split-range actuators to accommodate turbines of different sizes.
Overspeed Protection:
- Incorporates triple independent overspeed protection logic to ensure rapid shutdown in case of overspeed, preventing equipment damage.
- Provides an overspeed test button for convenient on-site testing of protection functions.
Emergency Shutdown:
- Equipped with an emergency stop button for immediate shutdown in emergency situations.
System Protection:
- - Automatically switches control modes upon sensor failure to ensure uninterrupted system operation.
  - Offers local/remote control priority selection to adapt to different operational scenarios.

d、 Holding torque:

It refers to the torque at which the stator locks the rotor when the stepper motor is powered on but not rotating.

It is one of the most important parameters of stepper motors, and the torque of stepper motors is usually close to the holding torque at low speeds. Due to

the continuous attenuation of the output torque of a stepper motor with increasing speed, and the variation of output power with increasing speed, maintaining

torque has become one of the most important parameters for measuring a stepper motor. For example, when people refer to a 2N.
m stepper motor, unless otherwise specified, it means a stepper motor that maintains a torque of 2N. m.

Common faults and maintenance of stepper motor drivers

Given that many friends are not familiar with how to handle faults in stepper motor drivers, today the editor has listed some common causes and solutions for stepper motor driver failures.
1. Stepper driver malfunction
Reason for malfunction: Electrostatic discharge (poor working environment).

Troubleshooting method: First, connect the PE in the electrical cabinet to the ground. If there is still a fault, the driver module is damaged and needs to be replaced.

2. Motor stalling at high speed
Reason for malfunction: Design issues with the transmission system.

Exclusion method: If the high-speed jog does not cause blockage when the feed rate is 85%, use the line acceleration feature; Reduce the maximum feed rate; Replace the fire torque stepper motor.
