Woodward Control Systems for Hydro Turbines

Woodward produces standard and custom control platforms that provide turbine control from start through a full range of output to safe shutdown. Most controls are microprocessor-based with programmable integral application software designed for hydro turbine applications.

505 H Digital Control

The Woodward 505H Digital Governor is a microprocessor-based control designed to control fixed- or adjustable-blade hydroelectric turbines. The 505H may be configured to meet the site-specific application requirements allowing a single design to be used in many different control applications, reducing both cost and delivery time. The 505H control has two normal operating modes, the Program Mode and the Run Mode. The Program Mode is used to select the options needed to configure the control to your specific turbine application.
