The 9905-860 is a specialized digital turbine governor from the Woodward Peak150 Series, designed for precise control of single-valve or split-range steam turbine systems. This microprocessor-based controller replaces legacy mechanical governors with modern digital PID-based regulation for speed and load management.
The 9905-860 processes high-speed magnetic pickup signals and executes real-time control algorithms to maintain stable turbine RPM under varying mechanical load conditions. It also integrates overspeed protection and diagnostic monitoring, making it suitable for critical power generation and mechanical drive applications.

The 9905-860 is widely deployed in:
Steam turbine speed and load control
Pump and compressor constant-speed control
Auxiliary power generation systems
Industrial plants requiring continuous operation during grid transitions
Its bumpless transfer capability between speed and load control modes helps maintain process stability during power system fluctuations.
Does the 9905-860 support remote setpoint control?
Yes. The controller typically accepts external 4–20 mA analog signals for remote speed or load setpoint adjustments via DCS or PLC systems.
What happens if the speed signal is lost?
The controller automatically triggers safety logic that initiates a controlled shutdown or emergency trip to prevent turbine overspeed damage.
