EGCP-2 Generator Control & Engine Management Package

The EGCP-2 is a microprocessor based complete generator control and engine management package. It is designed for use with an automatic voltage regulator and a speed control to automate and protect diesel or gas engine based generator sets. Designed for small to medium size generator sets, the EGCP-2 can be configured to operate stand-alone or utility paralleled sets. A network of EGCP-2 controls is capable of controlling up to eight unmanned generator sets for base-load, peak shaving, or backup power generation.

Woodward released new EGCP-2 controls, 8406-120 and 8406-121, in September, 2002. These controls will replace the existing part numbers 8406-115 and 8406-116. The new controls are compatible with the existing controls. The differences between the new and existing controls are explained in Application Note 51199 (see below to download or view this document).

It is possible to convert most existing controls to the new software. The 8406-115 can be converted to an 8406-120 only, and the 8406-116 can be converted to an 8406-121 only. Contact a Woodward Distributor in your area to inquire about the conversion process.
