Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the difference between 4-20mA and 1-5VDC control signals?
A: The 4-20mA current loop offers superior noise immunity for long cable runs (up to 300m), while 1-5VDC voltage signal is ideal for shorter distances with lower impedance actuators. Field selection allows you to choose based on your installation requirements.

Q: Can the 2301A control multiple engines simultaneously?
A: No, each 2301A module controls a single engine or turbine. For multi-engine applications, deploy one controller per prime mover with optional load-sharing modules for synchronized operation.

Q: What speed sensing methods are compatible?
A: The 2301A accepts magnetic pickup (MPU) signals from gear teeth, flywheels, or dedicated speed sensors. Typical frequency range is 100 Hz to 20 kHz, accommodating various engine speeds and pickup configurations.

Q: Is this module suitable for hazardous area installations?
A: The standard 2301A is rated IP20 for general industrial use. For hazardous locations, consider explosion-proof enclosures or intrinsically safe barrier modules between the controller and field devices.
