Product Description
Woodward SST-ESR2-CLX-RLL Ethernet ControlLogix Module
Product Overview
- The Woodward SST-ESR2-CLX-RLL is an Ethernet ControlLogix Module designed for interfacing Rockwell Automation ControlLogix programmable logic controllers (PLCs) with Ethernet-based industrial networks in power generation, industrial automation, and process control applications. This communication module, part of Woodward__ SST (SynchroNet Systems Technology) product line, enables seamless data exchange between ControlLogix PLCs and devices using Ethernet protocols, such as Modbus TCP, EtherNet/IP, or other industrial communication standards. The "CLX" indicates compatibility with the ControlLogix platform, and "RLL" refers to its integration with Rockwell__ Relay Ladder Logic programming environment. The module is ideal for integrating Woodward control systems (e.g., turbine or genset controllers) with PLC-based automation systems in power plants, marine applications, and industrial facilities. Compared to Woodward__ genset controllers (e.g., EasyGen-3500-5, 8440-2087), protection relays (e.g., XD1G11), or excitation systems (e.g., DECS-100-B15), the SST-ESR2-CLX-RLL is a communication interface, not a control or protection device. It is distinct from Woodward__ electronic governors (e.g., DYN1-10784-003-0-12), actuators (e.g., 8408-921), and other modules (e.g., 5466-1510 CPU).
