WOODWARD 8237-1600 ProTech-GII Overspeed Protection Module

The WOODWARD 8237-1600 serves as a critical safety component for turbine systems across energy generation and heavy industrial applications. This module specifically addresses over-speed and over-acceleration risks in steam, gas, and hydraulic turbines – common challenges we’ve encountered in sectors like offshore oil platforms and power plants where turbine failure could lead to catastrophic downtime.

What sets this module apart is its triple modular redundancy system – we’ve seen firsthand how the 3-out-of-2 voting architecture prevents false trips during critical operations. The sulfur-corrosion resistant coating proved particularly valuable for a client in the Gulf Coast refining industry where standard modules typically degrade within 18 months.

Key technical features include:

• Modbus communication for SCADA integration
• Three independent trip relays with dual redundancy
• Real-time MPU sensor monitoring
• Automatic test routine with event logging
• Hot-swappable design for maintenance without shutdown

Our inventory includes complementary components like the 8237-1601 expansion modules and 8237-1602 communication adapters. We recently supported a power generation project in Indonesia where these modules were integrated into a turbine protection system for a 200MW combined cycle plant.

At ABBOKOK, we offer:

• Global inventory with 16 regional warehouses
• 12-month warranty covering both parts and performance
• Technical support from engineers with 10+ years turbine system experience
• Custom configuration options for legacy systems

While standard pricing starts at $2,850, actual costs depend on configuration requirements and regional logistics. For precise quotes or technical consultations, contact us directly via:
