Woodward 8290-048 Generator Load Sensor and Control Module

The 8290-048 (Model: 8290-048) is a precision generator load sensing module engineered for automatic synchronizing and proportional load sharing in parallel engine-generator applications. This module is a critical component for diesel and gas engine control systems, providing the necessary intelligence to balance kilowatt (kW) distribution across multiple units. The 8290-048 (Part Number: 8290-048) monitors generator voltage and current to provide a proportional bias signal to the engine governor, ensuring that each genset carries its fair share of the total system load.

Designed for high-reliability industrial power plants and marine vessels, the 8290-048 (Load Sensor: 8290-048) features adjustable Droop and Load Gain settings on the front panel, allowing field engineers to calibrate the system response to match specific prime mover characteristics. By integrating synchronizing logic and load sensing into a rugged, compact package, it eliminates the need for complex discrete wiring between separate load sharing units and speed controls. This module is essential for maintaining frequency stability and preventing reverse-power conditions in mission-critical microgrids.
