This panel-mounted module uses a triple modular design and two-out-of-three voting architecture to ensure failsafe operation. With the ability to replace one module while the system remains online, the 8237-1600 minimizes production losses. It continuously monitors speed and acceleration, generating 4-20 mA readouts for supervisory control.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eParameter\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eValue\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimensions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e13 x 17.5 x 6.25 (inches)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEnclosure Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIP56 dust and water resistant (Installed properly)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFeatures\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOvervoltage protection II (per IEC 60664-1)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInput Voltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2 High Voltage Inputs OR 1 High Voltage and 1 Low Voltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInrush Current\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10 A at 115 Vac, 20 A @ 220 Vac\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKeypad\/Display\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4.2in display and 15 Keys Per Module\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOperating Temperature\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e–20 to +60 °C at 95% humidity\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStorage Temperature\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e–20 to +65 °C at 95% humidity\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLess than 23 lbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese specifications for the Woodward 8237-1600 ensure it performs reliably in demanding industrial environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIndustry Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Woodward 8237-1600 is designed for any size turbine powered by steam, gas, or water. It provides overspeed detection and safe shutdown, making it ideal for power generation, industrial processing, and marine propulsion systems. The IP56 enclosure allows operation in harsh environments with dust and water resistance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Guide\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMount the 8237-1600 in a panel using the backplane structure. Ensure proper connections for high and low voltage inputs. The module supports either two high voltage inputs or one high voltage and one low voltage. Follow the overvoltage protection guidelines as per IEC 60664-1. The 4.2-inch display and 15-key keypad per module facilitate local configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMaintenance \u0026amp; Reliability\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe triple module design allows one module to be serviced while the system remains online, reducing downtime dramatically.
