The easYgen-3200 is available in various configurations, including the 8440-2052 model and CONTROL-EASYGEN-3200-5/P2, and offers an advanced solution for engine-generator control and protection, with cutting-edge peer-to-peer paralleling features in an intuitive, highly durable package. Features & Functionality Woodward's easYgen-3200™ Series paralleling genset controllers offer exceptional versatility and value for OEM switchgear manufacturers, generator packagers, and system integrators. These controllers integrate comprehensive engine-generator control and protection with advanced peer-to-peer paralleling capabilities, all within a robust, user-friendly design. The easYgen-3200 features LogicsManager™ programmable logic, providing unparalleled application flexibility, which often eliminates the need for additional PLC control. However, it can seamlessly integrate with SCADA or PLC-based control systems when needed. The easYgen-3200 is an ideal solution for standardizing genset control across various distributed power generation applications, from stand-alone emergency backup systems to parallel load sharing of up to 32 gensets in complex, segmented distribution systems with multiple utility feeds and tie breakers. Applications: Emergency standby: data centers, hospitals, commercial and industrial facilities Distributed Generation (DG): utility-dispatchable power for peak demand response Islanded prime-power: oil & gas exploration, marine applications, remote villages, rental/mobile units Microgrid: military, government, net-zero communities, universities Utility paralleling: peak shaving, demand curtailment Cogeneration (CHP): wastewater treatment, biogas production/containment Switchgear upgrades: retrofitting generator control for load sharing and paralleling Key Features: True RMS voltage and current sensing (generator, bus, and mains) to minimize harmonic susceptibility CAN network communication/control with engine ECU (supports standard SAE-J1939 protocol and several proprietary engine OEM protocols) Serial Modbus RTU (slave) communication for SCADA annunciation and external control Configuration via PC/laptop using the Woodward ToolKit service tool Connectivity with the RP-3200 Remote Panel for full annunciation, control, and configuration over CANopen protocol at up to 250 meters Compliance agency/marine approvals: CE, UL/cUL, CSA, BDEW, ABS, Lloyd’s Register (*additional marine approvals available in marine package) Automatic mains failure (AMF) detection, decoupling, and emergency run with dead bus close Automatic synchronization with phase-match, positive/negative slip-frequency, and run-up (dead field) paralleling Circuit breaker close/open control: GCB only, GCB and MCB (ATS function), or external (no control) Proportional load sharing (isochronous or droop) of up to 32 gensets, regardless of size Base loading, import/export control, and asymmetrical loading through external base load input Automatic load-dependent start/st...
