woodward XU2-AC Actuator Control Module
Manufacturer: Woodward
Product Number: XU2-AC
Category: Actuator Control Module
Series: Woodward XU series
Application: Turbine and engine management systems
Function: Precise regulation of fuel, steam, or gas for turbines and engines
Performance: High-performance actuator control with real-time response
Product Description
The Woodward XU2-AC is a high-performance actuator control module designed for precise regulation of fuel, steam, or gas in turbine and engine management systems. As part of Woodward’s XU series, this advanced control unit provides reliable, real-time actuator positioning for industrial power generation, marine propulsion, and oil & gas applications.
Engineered for demanding environments, the Woodward XU2-AC delivers high-accuracy positioning (±0.1% full scale) and fast response times (<50ms) to maintain optimal process control. Its rugged construction withstands extreme temperatures, vibration, and electromagnetic interference, making it suitable for installation in harsh industrial settings. The module integrates seamlessly with Woodward’s ProAct™ and NetCon™ control platforms, offering flexible configuration options through intuitive software tools.
With its dual-channel redundancy and self-diagnostics, the Woodward XU2-AC ensures uninterrupted operation in critical applications where system reliability is paramount.
