4 TECHNICAL DATA
Technical data, dimensions of the components and weights: See attached assembly
drawings and the arrangement drawings (if available).
5 DAMPER DESCRIPTION
The spring packs (1) and intermediate pieces (2) are clamped together using a clamping
ring (3). The inner ends of the spring packs (1) reach into the axial grooves of the inner star
(9). The chambers (A, B), which are formed by the intermediate pieces (2) and the spring
packs (1), are filled with oil. If torque is applied to the damper, the outer part (1, 2, 3, 5, 7)
and the inner part (9) of the damper will be twisted against each other. The spring blades
(1) will be deflected during this process. This changes the volume of the oil in chambers A
and B. The oil will be displaced from one chamber into the adjoining one through a narrow
gap. The resultant oil flow resistance delays the relative movement of both parts of the
damper (outer and inner) and dampens the torsional vibrations.
The main bolts (750) connect the middle piece of the damper (1, 2, 3) to the flange (5) and
the side plate (7) by means of friction locking. The two plates (5,7) of the outer part of the
damper and the seals fitted in these hold the oil in the damper so that the required
working pressure can be built up. See Figure 5.1.

15 OPERATING CONDITIONS
If the operating conditions listed below do not appear in either the assembly
drawing or the operating instructions, please discuss with Geislinger. See list
www.geislinger.com
The damper must be installed so, that in its normal operating position, the rotating shaft of
the damper is in a horizontal axis position.
To ensure the hydrodynamic oil damping, the damper must be supplied with the correct
and specified minimum required oil pressure. The minimum required oil pressure is given in
the torsional vibration calculation of the damper.
Design of oil supply to produce at least the minimum required oil pressure in the
damper
The maximum permissible oil supply pressure is 6 bar absolute. If the supply pressure is
higher than specified, please contact Geislinger. See list www.geislinger.com
The mean value of the expected amount of oil discharge through the damper (liter/min) is
specified on the assembly drawing.
The quantity of oil discharge is dependent on:
Due to tolerances and other effects, deviations of up to ±50% from the mean value can
occur.

19 APPENDIX
Before handling the threaded parts using the assembly tools, the contact surfaces must be
cleaned carefully and thoroughly.
the bolts on the head contact surface and on the thread (see Figure 1.1)
the nuts (if present) on both contact surfaces and on the thread (see Figure 1.2)
both sides of the washers (see Figure 1.3)
the threaded holes (if present) of the counter piece (see Figure 1.4)
and the contact surfaces on the parts being connected (see Figure 1.5)
If the contact surfaces have oxidised, first carefully remove the oxide layers mechanically,
for example using a wire brush.
After removing the oxide layers (if present), all contact surfaces must be cleaned and
degreased thoroughly. Isoparaffin or acetone can be used as agents for cleaning and
degreasing.
For assembly, the contact surfaces and thread must be treated with seal agents and/or bolt
locking agents or with lubricants. Normally used as bolt locking agents or sealants are
Loctite products and engine oil or Molykote paste as lubricants. The precise types and
application of the auxiliary materials can be found on the relevant assembly drawing in the
table “Mounting instructions for bolts”.
Loctite products must always be used within the processing time specified by Loctite. These
processing times can be found in the instructions for the used Loctite products. Do not
exceed the maximum processing times permitted! Try and keep the processing times as
short as possible.
Before applying the auxiliary materials, the load-bearing thread length "X" (see figure 1.6)
must be calculated for the parts being connected together. This thread length must then
be wetted with the auxiliary material across the entire area. In terms of the quantity, use
only so much that only small quantities of excess auxiliary material overflow after assembly.
A test assembly is recommended to be able to estimate the amount required.
Figure 1.6
With sealing unions in particular, ensure that the threaded gap is completely filled with
sealant. For thread size M16 and over (see Figure 1.7), the threaded hole or the nut thread
must also be coated with the auxiliary material.
+ or
Figure 1.7
When using washers, apply to both the front and the back (see green triangles on figures
1.8). In terms of quantity, use only so much that the contact surface is completely covered
and only small quantities of excess auxiliary material overflow after assembly. A test
assembly is recommended to be able to estimate the amount required.
Figures 1.8
20.3 Assembly
The bolts must be tightened according to the “Mounting instruction for bolts” given on
the assembly drawing.
Disc springs and sometimes wedge lock washers are normally only used as washers for bolt
locking. These must be assembled as follows (see figures 1.9 and 1.10.)
The bolts must be tightened crosswise, i.e. opposite pairs of bolts must be tightened
immediately after one another. The assembly must always be carried out according to the
same procedure, as described in the example below for a twelve-point division.
The torque values, the tightening of the bolt and the application area for the auxiliary
materials are described in the “Mounting instruction for bolts” on the assembly drawing.
TWELVE DIVISION EXAMPLE
Case A: Only tightening torque: Tighten the bolts 1-4 to approx. 30% of the given
tightening torque value.
Case B: Initial tightening torque + twist angle: Tighten the bolts 1-4 with the given
initial tightening torque plus approx. 30% of the given twist angle.

Immediately after the bolt assembly is complete, the excess residue of the auxiliary
materials (especially Loctite residue) must be removed.
20.5 Re-use
If bolt connections secured or sealed using Loctite are unfastened, any old Loctite reside
remaining on the bolts must be completely removed mechanically, for example using a
wire brush. With threaded connections and internal threads (e.g. with nuts), old Loctite
residue must also be removed completely.
Afterwards, all parts must be prepared for re-assembly (see chapter “General mounting
instruction for bolts”).

General Information
Introduction
This manual contains information about the Woodward Integral EG Actuator for
PG governors as an add-on unit:
to form the PG-EG actuator (no ballhead) or
to create a ballhead backup governor (PGA-EG or PGG-EG) from the PGA
or PGG governor.
In this manual, PG-EG refers to any of these three governor types.
This manual covers the EG, governor components affected by the EG, and
information pertaining to the PG-EG. For more general governor information,
refer to the PGA governor manual (36604) or the PGG governor manual (36627).
Description
The EG is an electro-hydraulically controlled actuator that accepts a (0 to 200)
mA signal, and outputs on a standard PG servo proportional to the mA signal.
Direct-Acting Reverse-Acting
Fuel Rack Position (0.050 to 0.950) inches TR (0.050 to 0.950) inches TR
Control Current (20 to 160) mA (160 to 20) mA
Vibration Resistance
The EG actuator is in itself resistant against vibration due to the torque motor
beam being mass-stabilized in all three axes. As a consequence, vibrations have
minimal influence on the position of the beam.

Installation
Introduction
This chapter describes receiving, storage, and installation requirements for the
actuator.
The surface of this product can become hot enough or cold enough
to be a hazard. Use protective gear for product handling in these
circumstances. Temperature ratings are included in the specification
section of this manual.
Initial Operation
Before initial operation of the engine equipped with this actuator, read
all of this installation chapter. Make sure that all installation steps have
been correctly accomplished and all linkages are secured and properly
attached. Carefully review the direction of rotation for the actuator oil
pump.
Receiving
Your PG governor is shipped from the factory bolted to a wooden platform in a
vertical position. After being tested at the factory, the governor is drained of oil.
This leaves a light film of oil covering the internal parts, preventing rust. No
internal cleaning is required.
Woodward 7
Status: Approved Confidential Document id: WDAAA160525 l Page 16 (42)
Storage
The governor may be stored for up to a year as received from the factory. Store
the governor in a vertical position. Fill completely with oil if extended storage is
necessary.
Mounting Requirements
A gasket must be used between the governor and the accessory mounting pad.
A 0.81 mm (0.032 inch) thick gasket is recommended for this purpose. The
gasket is used to absorb imperfections between the governor base and the
mounting pad, and to avoid oil leakage between the governor and the drive
portion of the engine.
Install the governor square on the accessory pad, using the correct length of
coupling between the governor and the drive. Make sure the driveshaft does not
bind, and that there is no excessive side load on the driveshaft assembly. Make
sure the coupling is tight, and do not use force when installing the drive shaft into
the coupling. The governor must be installed in a vertical position.
Linkage
Align the linkage from the governor to the fuel pumps or valves to eliminate
binding and excessive backlash. The relationship of governor/terminal shaft
angular position to the fuel control position must be adjusted in accordance with
the engine manufacturer's specifications. The linkage must not limit the
governor's ability to call for maximum fuel or to shut down the engine.
Linkage must not give during major transients and must not be so heavy that it
hinders accurate governor response. Linkage must be designed to resist wear.

Most governors are equipped with an oil spray to reduce or prevent vibration-
induced damage to the torque-motor assembly.
All governors have hydraulic connections for a booster. For information regarding
selecting the correct booster type, refer to Manual 36684.
When connecting a start booster to the governor, at least two lines are required:
Oil to booster inlet, which takes oil from the governor sump to the
booster inlet
Oil from booster outlet #1, which takes oil from the booster outlet #1 to
the accumulator system of the governor. By supplying oil under pressure
during starting from the booster into the accumulator, the governor
should distribute the oil internally without any delay.
In most cases there should be no need to connect other lines between the
booster and the actuator or governor.
Woodward 9
Status: Approved Confidential Document id: WDAAA160525 l Page 18 (42)
All governors have hydraulic connections for a heat exchanger which allows oil to
be circulated to an external cooler to ensure that the governor oil temperature
remains between 71 °C and 93 °C (160 °F and 200 °F) under all operating
conditions. In case a heat exchanger is used on a governor also equipped with
an oil spray, extra attention is required. Since the spray tube is located at the
same height as the oil-to-cooler connection on the governor’s power case, these
two connections are hydraulically linked. This means that the oil spray will no
longer function when combined with a cooler, since the oil will follow the path
with the least resistance. In order to prevent this, we recommend adding an
orifice to the oil-to-cooler line exactly where it leaves the power case to ensure
enough flow of oil is going to the oil spray.
Standard electrical connections are made to the four-pin connector on the side of
the column (see figures). Optionally, the EG actuator may be wired to the
connector on the receiver bracket through an internal mounting bracket.
Instead of a connector, the governor may be equipped with a flying lead, leaving
the governor on the side of the column. This option is used mostly on governors
in a high-vibration environment.
Clearances
Leave adequate clearance to connect the linkage, to fill the governor with oil, and
to remove the cover (if necessary).

Status: Approved Confidential Document id: WDAAA160525 l Page 19 (42)
Governor Oil
Governor oil must have lubricating and hydraulic properties. The oil must have a
viscosity index that allows it to perform over the operating temperature range of
the governor. The oil must have additives that allow it to remain stable and
predictable over the operating temperature range of the governor. The oil used in
the governor must be compatible with the nitrile, polyacrylic, and fluorocarbon
seals used in the governor.
Many oils and synthetic lubricating fluids used in the engines controlled by PG
governors meet these specifications. When possible use the same grade and
weight of oil used in the engine. Information in this manual is intended to be used
only in the selection of the governor lubricating oil, not for selecting engine lube
oil. USE ONLY NEW, CLEAN OIL. DO NOT USE USED ENGINE OIL IN THE
GOVERNOR.
Woodward governors and actuators are designed to give stable operation with
oils which provide 50 to 3000 SUS (Saybolt Universal Seconds) of viscosity
throughout the operating temperature range. Ideally the viscosity at the normal
operating temperature should be between 100 and 300 SUS. Poor governor
response or instability is often an indication that the oil being used is too thick or
too thin.
For more detailed information on the choice of governor oil, refer to manual
25071, Oils for Hydraulic Controls.
Oil Problems
A filter is located between the oil pump and the control pilot valve of the EG
actuator. Should this filter become clogged, it can seriously hinder the ability of
the actuator to control, even on the mechanical ballhead side. Take extra care
with the PG to be sure that oil is clean and that it does not deteriorate due to
heat.
Woodward 11
Status: Approved Confidential Document id: WDAAA160525 l Page 20 (42)
To avoid contamination of the governor, the replacement oil must be free of dirt,
water, or other foreign material. Use clean containers to store and transfer oil.
Refer persistent or recurring oil problems to an oil specialist.
After the oil is selected, fill the governor with new, clean oil, in the volumes listed
here: Type 12/29/58 (1.4 L / 1.5 qt), Type 200/300 (6.2 L / 6.5 qt), Type 500
(6.6 L / 7.0 qt).
While the engine is not running, fill the governor to the maximum level indication.
During normal operation, this level should not drop below the minimum level. Do
not add oil when operating the governor.
PG-EG 200, 300, and 500 cases must be filled in two stages. Fill with about
4 liters/quarts before starting, then add the amount needed to bring the oil up to
operating levels after start-up. On these governors, there is an oil level dipstick
inside the fill port cap. On newer types, a small sight gauge glass has been
added onto the terminal shaft housing. Always use the dipstick for accurate oil
level readings. All other PG-EGs have an oil filler cup in the cover and a special
long oil gauge glass on the power case.
To prevent contamination of the flapper nozzle system, an oil filter has been fitted
to the oil feed line going to the EG actuator. Check this filter every time the oil is
changed, and clean if necessary.

Status: Approved Confidential Document id: WDAAA160525 l Page 21 (42)
Use white spirit or another oil-based cleaning fluid to wash backward, against the
normal flow direction onto a filter cloth or similar. Do not use sharp tools to probe
into the filter. Debris content should come out leading a flow of cleaning fluid thru
the filter. Use a soft brush to help the particles get loose from the mesh surface.
Inspect the content of the filter. Normal wear of the PG-EG actuator should
produce very few particles, so if you find a lot of debris you should investigate its
origin. Make sure the cans used to add oil are clean (no dust, no water, no other
oil remains).
If a filter is very dirty and cannot be cleaned it should be replaced by a new filter:
Woodward number 3005-533.
If, over time, filters continue to be very dirty, consider reducing the time between
cleaning. Clogged filter can seriously reduce the flow of oil to the EG-actuator,
thus making it very difficult to maintain its dynamic behavior.

Chapter 3.
Principles of Operation
The balance of these hydraulic pressures and forces positions the pilot valve in
the bushing and causes the pilot valve to follow the position of the torque motor
beam. To center the pilot valve in the bushing in steady state, the gap between
the flapper (the torque motor beam) and the nozzle is adjustable by means of the
center adjustment.
The control land of the pilot valve, balanced between the regulated pressure
below and the pilot valve control pressure above, provides a hydraulic
amplification of the position of the torque-motor beam. This permits accurate
positioning of the plunger in the bushing without having the bushing rotate to
eliminate static friction as is necessary in the mechanical pilot valve system.
Torque-motor System
The torque-motor system consists of an electromagnetic coil and a beam. On top
of the beam, an armature is mounted which is placed into the electromagnetic
field of the coil. The beam itself is suspended by a torsion spring, allowing a
small degree of rotation of the beam around the center of the torsion spring but
no translations.
The torque-motor beam is balanced between the restoring spring, the level-
adjust spring, and the torque from the torque-motor. With the system in steady
state, the pilot valve of the flapper nozzle system is centered and the servo is
stationary.
By changing the current to the coil, the amount of torque on the armature
changes, and thus the torque on the torque-motor beam. This will change the
gap between the beam and the pilot valve, cause the pilot valve to follow the
movement of the beam, and allow oil to flow to or from the servo. The resultant
change in servo position causes the restoring lever to load or unload the
restoring spring, and thus restores the equilibrium of the torque-motor beam at
the new current level. The torque motor beam resumes its original position, and
the gap between the beam and the pilot valve will be restored to its original size
with the pilot valve centered.

Operation and Adjustments
Introduction
Because the PGA-EG and PGG-EG are each a combination of an electric
actuator and a ballhead governor, routine start-up adjustments can be more
complex than on other governors.
Centering Adjustment
Woodward 19
Status: Approved Confidential Document id: WDAAA160525 l Page 28 (42)
1. Install the guiding plate and mount the screws by hand. Do not tighten the
screws but allow small adjustments.
2. First check visually if the plate is set perpendicular to the pin. Adjust this by
moving the plate in its slots until it is.
3. Now run the tailrod up and down. This will set the plate in the correct
position and ensure the slot and the tailrod are exactly parallel. Now tighten
the screws to a torque of (0.7 to 0.8) N·m / (6 to 7) lb-in.
The switch is mounted in one of two locations, depending on whether or not the
governor is equipped with a mode select valve.

In electrical mode, the actuator pilot valve and the ballhead pilot
valve are placed in series. In order for the governor to operate in this
mode, it is necessary to raise the mechanical speed setting over the
electrical speed setting, since this offset will open the ballhead pilot
valve and keep it “out of the way.” This speed difference should
amount to 5 % to 10 % of the maximum speed.
Under EG mode, the ballhead will still control if the PG speed setting
is lower than the EG.
The mode select valve consists of a pilot valve located in a block which is
mounted onto the side of the governor power case. Internal governor hydraulics
are routed through the block. When the pilot valve is driven against a return
spring, the valve will switch. When the driving force is removed, the spring
returns the pilot valve and the valve switches back. Two pilot valves are
available: a direct-acting one and a reverse-acting one.
Five different methods are available to drive the mode select valve:
Manual—Turning a knob clockwise directs pressure oil against the end of the
valve plunger and forces the plunger against the return spring to switch into PG
mode. Turning the manual knob counterclockwise connects the operating end of
the mode select valve plunger to drain, allowing the return spring to move the
plunger and switch to EG mode.
24 Woodward
Status: Approved Confidential Document id: WDAAA160525 l Page 33 (42)
Maintenance
The mode select valve should require minimal or no maintenance. O-rings should
be replaced to eliminate possible oil leaks. The pneumatic, electric, or manual
actuator which sets the position of the pilot valve may be removed from the
housing for cleaning or repair.
Applications
The ballhead governor and the electric-input actuator operate continually, with
each having its own desired fuel-output position. PGA-EG hydraulics select the
lesser of the two fuel outputs for the actual fuel output.
Setting up for reverse-acting means that the electronics in the control are
programmed for reverse-acting; the actuator must be calibrated to accept this
reverse signal. Loss of electrical signal to the actuator causes the actuator to call
for increased fuel, moving the output to increase until the ballhead takes over
control (remember that for correct actuator use, the mechanical speed setting
must be raised by 5 % to 10 %). This means that the reverse-acting setup of
control and governor results in automatic switching from electrical control to
ballhead control should electronic failure occur, although at a higher speed.
When control and actuator are set up for direct-acting, loss of electronic signal to
the actuator means that the actuator goes to minimum fuel. Since the ballhead is
set to a speed 5 % to 10 % above the electronic maximum speed, it cannot take
over control.

General Information
Introduction
This manual covers the three types of Woodward booster servomotor:
Low-volume, single-cylinder booster
Medium-volume, double-cylinder (tandem) booster
High-volume, two-stage booster
Description
A booster servomotor supplies pressurized oil to mechanical-hydraulic governors
and electro-hydraulic actuators at the instant starting air reaches the engine. This
instant oil pressure eliminates the time required for the rotary gear pump in the
governor to build up enough oil pressure to move the linkage. This produces a
faster start, which conserves starting air, and in vessels with direct reversible
engines, improves maneuverability.
When the booster is inactive, a piston is held at one end of a cylinder by a spring.
The cylinder is full of oil supplied from a line from the governor's sump.
Compressed air applied to the side of the piston opposite this oil forces the piston
against the oil, which flows through ports at the other end of the cylinder to the
governor.
When air is removed from the piston, the spring returns the piston to its rest
position. Reduced pressure in the cylinder causes oil to flow into it from the
sump.
Check valves at all oil ports allow oil to flow in only one direction. This prevents
oil in the booster from flowing back to the governor's sump when the booster
operates, and prevents oil in the booster outlet lines from flowing back into the
booster when it is inactive.
Types of Boosters
Boosters are available with different air-to-oil pressure ratios, making them
suitable for both high and low air pressure applications:
Model Type Pressure Ratio
(Oil Out to Air In)
8901-037, -043 single-cylinder 1:1
8901-051 single-cylinder 2:1
8901-065 tandem 1:1
8901-067 tandem 2:1
8901-091 two-stage 2:1
8901-103 two-stage 3:1
Single-cylinder boosters supply enough oil for governors with small and medium
work outputs, such as UG-8/-40, EGB-10/-13, 3161, and PG governors with
outputs of 16 and 23 J (12 and 17 ft-lbs).
Woodward 1
Status: Approved Confidential Document id: WDAAA160523 i Page 10 (36)
Two-stage, high-volume boosters meet the boost oil requirements for PG, EGB,
and PG-TM governors with 271, 407, and 678 J (200, 300, and 500 ft-lb) power
cases.
A single-cylinder booster has two air inlets, one restricted and one unrestricted.
Using the restricted air inlet results in slower movement of the fuel rack.
If outlet #2 is used, its needle valve determines the rate at which the speeder
spring is compressed. The needle valve in outlet #3 controls the rate at which the
power piston moves.
In most applications, outlet #1 supplies oil to the power piston in the governor.
Outlet #2 supplies oil to the speed setting servo (of PGA, PGPL, and PGG
governors equipped with any shutdown feature). Outlet #3 supplies oil to the
relay piston.

Installing and Adjusting a Booster
Servomotor
General Rules
Observe the following rules when you install a Woodward booster servomotor.
Location
Install the booster servomotor at a lower level than the governor to prevent air
from being trapped in the booster and oil lines.
Oil Lines
Oil lines must slope up from the booster to the governor with a minimum of loops
and bends.
Oil Leakage
It is not unusual for small oil particles (from assembly oil) to come out of the vent
hole at initial use of the booster and after several starts in a row, due to oil
particles in the bleed air.
Starting-Air Valve
A starting-air valve (supplied by the customer) must be installed in the air line to
the booster. This valve must admit compressed air to the booster at the same
time that starting air is supplied to the engine, and it must vent the air cylinder of
the booster to atmosphere when starting air is removed from the engine. Air
pressure at the booster air inlet must not exceed 3500 kPa (500 psi).
Purge air from the booster's oil chamber, the tubing, and the
governor before starting the engine, by cycling the booster piston
with start-air or air from a separate source. Failure to purge air
completely may result in sluggish governor response.
Figures 2-1 and 2-2 show locations of inlet and outlet ports on Woodward
governors with which a single-cylinder booster can be used. Figure 1-3 shows
locations of ports and the stroke limit screw on a single-cylinder booster.
Install 10 mm (3/8 inch) steel tubing from the sump of the governor to the oil inlet
on the booster.
Install 6 mm (1/4 inch) steel tubing from oil outlet #1 on the booster to the power
piston (the inlet marked “OUTLET #1”) of the governor.
Woodward 7
Status: Approved Confidential Document id: WDAAA160523 i Page 16 (36)
Connect a line containing an air-starting valve from the starting-air supply to the
appropriate air inlet on the booster. Use the inlet with the built-in orifice if you
want to move the fuel racks at a slower rate. The other air inlet needs to be
plugged.
Fill the governor with oil to the proper level (refer to the installation manual for the
governor).
When all air and oil connections are secure, purge air from the booster and oil
lines by cycling air to the booster from a remote source without cranking the
engine. Add oil to the governor as needed.
When there is no more air in the booster and oil lines, set the initial opening of
the fuel racks by adjusting the stroke of the booster piston. Turn the stroke limit
screw counterclockwise to increase starting fuel, and clockwise to decrease it.
This screw limits the intake stroke of the booster and the volume of oil supplied to
the governor in one stroke of the booster servomotor.
On PGA governors, decals indicating where to connect lines from the booster do
NOT apply to tandem boosters. Refer to Figure 2-3 when connecting a tandem
booster to a PGA governor.
Figure 2-3 shows locations of outlet and inlet ports on governors with which a
tandem booster can be used. Figure 1-4 shows locations of stroke limit screws
and ports on a tandem booster.
Connect 10 mm (3/8 inch) steel tubing from the sump of the governor to the oil
inlet on the booster; and from oil outlet #1 of the booster to the accumulator of
the governor.
On PGA, PGPL, and PGG governors equipped with any shutdown feature,
connect 6 mm (1/4 inch) steel tubing from oil outlet #2 on the booster to the
speed setting servo of the governor.
On PGA, PGPL, and PGG governors, connect 6 mm (1/4 inch) steel tubing from
oil outlet #3 on the booster to the power piston of the governor.
Connect a line with an air-starting valve from the starting-air supply to the air inlet
on the booster.
Plug the unused oil outlet(s) and air inlet (these plugs are delivered with the
booster).
Fill the governor with oil to the correct level (refer to the installation manual for
the governor).

Status: Approved Confidential Document id: WDAAA160523 i Page 17 (36)
When there is no more air in the booster and oil lines, limit the volume of oil
going to the governor by adjusting the two stroke limit screws. The positions of
these screws determine the maximum volume of oil supplied by the booster.
This, in turn, determines the maximum travel of the fuel racks. Turn the screws
clockwise to reduce the travel of the racks, and counterclockwise to increase the
travel.
Adjust the needle valves in oil outlets #2 and #3. If outlet #2 is used, its needle
valve controls the rate of oil flow to the speeder spring servo, which determines
how fast the speeder spring servo moves. The needle valve in outlet #3 controls
the rate at which the power piston moves. Turn the needle valve clockwise to
restrict oil flow, and counterclockwise to increase flow.
On PGA, PGPL, and PGG governors, decals indicating where to connect lines
from the booster do NOT apply to two-stage boosters. Refer to Figure 2-4 when
connecting a two-stage booster to a PGA, PGPL, or PGG governor.
Connect 12 mm (1/2 inch) steel tubing from the sump of the governor to the oil
inlet port on the booster, and from oil outlet #1 on the booster to the power piston
of the governor.
On PGA, PGPL, and PGG governors equipped with any shutdown feature,
connect 8 mm (5/16 inch) steel tubing from oil outlet #2 on the booster to the
speed setting servo of the governor.
Connect 8 mm (5/16 inch) steel tubing from oil outlet #3 on the booster to the
relay piston of the governor.
If you have an EGB-200, -300, or -500 actuator, leave oil outlet #3 of the booster
plugged and loosen the plug in outlet #2. Turn the shuttle piston adjusting screw
fully clockwise, thereby opening up the passage to outlet #1 (otherwise, the
booster servomotor remains inactive). Tighten the plug in outlet #2.
Connect a line with an air-starting valve from the starting-air supply to the air inlet
on the booster.
Fill the governor with oil to the correct level (refer to the installation manual of the
governor).
Woodward 9

When there is no more air in the booster and oil lines, regulate the volume of oil
going to the governor by adjusting the stroke limit screw. If you are not using an
EGB-200, -300, or -500 actuator, adjust the shuttle piston adjusting screw and
the needle valve in oil outlet #3.
Remember that:
The stroke limit screw limits the volume of oil going to the governor through
oil outlets #1 and #3. This controls the maximum amount of fuel output
during a booster-assisted start.
If you use outlet #2, the shuttle piston adjusting screw limits the volume of
oil going to the speed setting servo through oil outlet #2.
The needle valve limits the rate of flow of oil through oil outlet #3; this
controls the rate at which the output shaft of the governor moves. The
needle valve setting also limits the stroke of the power piston in the
governor.
Turn the stroke limit screw clockwise to reduce the volume of oil to the governor
and fuel to the engine, and counterclockwise to increase volume.
Turn the needle valve clockwise to reduce the rate and volume of oil flow, and
counterclockwise to increase the rate and volume.

Principles of Operation
Woodward 15
Status: Approved Confidential Document id: WDAAA160523 i Page 24 (36)
When compressed air enters the booster, the main piston moves to the right,
forcing oil to the shuttle piston cavity and moving the shuttle piston up. The
shuttle piston forces oil through oil outlet #2 and blocks oil outlets #1 and #3.
The shuttle piston adjusting screw limits the stroke of the shuttle piston, which
limits the amount of oil supplied through oil outlet #2.
The needle valve in outlet #3 limits the amount of oil that goes through this outlet
and its rate of flow. This, in turn, limits the stroke of the power piston in the
governor and the rate at which fuel is supplied to the engine.
The stroke limit screw limits the stroke of the main booster piston, which limits
the total amount of oil supplied to the governor by the booster.
Check valves prevent oil from flowing from the booster into the governor's sump.
16 Woodward
Status: Approved Confidential Document id: WDAAA160523 i Page 25 (36)
The air side of the main piston is vented to atmosphere through the starting-air
valve. Spring forces return the main booster piston and shuttle piston to their
original positions. Reduced pressure in the booster causes sump oil to flow back
into the booster.
Check valves prevent oil from flowing into the booster from the oil outlet lines.

General Information
Introduction
This manual serves as a general guide for anyone involved in the selection of oils
for use in Woodward governors or actuators.
One of the primary functions required of an oil is to stand up to high loadings and
high temperatures, while remaining a good lubricant. Oil, as it emerges from the
refinery process, is a slippery liquid, but it lacks additives vital to its intended
functions.
These additives turn a liquid into a lubricant that fights heat, cold, contamination,
corrosion, rust, wear, and other environmental and mechanical hazards.
Lubricant additives are grouped into three general categories according to the
functions they perform:
protect the lubricated surface
improve lubricant performance
protect the lubricant
Oil Characteristics
There are four important characteristics to be considered in an oil: viscosity, pour
point, shear stability, and thermal stability.
Viscosity
All natural lubricants thin as they warm, and thicken as they cool. The magnitude
of this change is measured by the Viscosity Index (VI). The higher the VI number,
the less effect temperature has on viscosity change. An oil with a VI of 200 is
very good in this respect.
Pour Point
The pour point of an oil is a measure of its low temperature suitability. Chemical
compounds, called pour point depressants, are used to allow the oil to flow even
at low operating temperature when the oil has thickened.
Shear Stability
Oil viscosity can also change due to shear. Actual mechanical shearing of long
chain polymers in oil will act to lower both the actual viscosity at any given
temperature and the Viscosity Index.
Woodward 1
Wärtsilä id: WDAAA273494 c
Thermal Stability
Oil viscosity changes will also occur with long-term operation at high
temperatures. In this case, the oil will thicken due to oxidation and evaporation of
the lighter molecules.
Multi-viscosity oils extend the operating temperature range while still maintaining
proper viscosity. However, they have relatively poor thermal and shear stability
resulting in shorter useful life. A good alternative is synthetic oils, since they have
good temperature viscosity characteristics. Synthetic oils are covered in Chapter
2.
Anti-wear Agents
Mechanical wear from metal-on-metal rubbing or abrasives is normally prevented
by hydrodynamic lubrication with an oil film thick enough to keep the parts
separated. But under certain conditions such as high load, low speed, and low
lubricant viscosity, the lubricant film may rupture and allow metal-to-metal
contact. This condition may exist between thrust bearing surfaces or between
closefitting pump gears and gear pockets.
2 Woodward
Wärtsilä id: WDAAA273494 c
Performance Additives
Oil performance characteristics also can be greatly improved with additional
compounds such as pour point depressants, seal swell agents, and Viscosity
Index improvers.
Oils with a high VI exhibit less viscosity change with temperature than oils with a
low VI. A lubricant that is expected to perform over a wide temperature range
must usually have a high VI. The VI of oils has received much attention because
ease in starting the engine requires low viscosity at low temperatures, and
normal operation requires an adequate oil film at normal operating temperature.
Woodward 3
Wärtsilä id: WDAAA273494 c
Anti-Foamants
When subjected to sufficient agitation, all oils will entrap air and produce foam.
This, in turn, causes more problems. Oil reaction increases exposure of the oil to
oxygen, which increases the rate of oxidation.
Air and foam also reduce lubricant efficiency as a coolant and as a hydraulic
fluid. Retained air changes oil to a compressible fluid and may cause operational
problems. To eliminate foaming, additives with a lower surface tension than the
oil, and low solubility in the lubricants are used. This weakens and ruptures the
oil film surrounding the bubbles.
Anti-Oxidants
The oxidation process is complex and is highly undesirable. Often, additives that
reduce oil oxidation also reduce corrosion.
Decomposition of the oil may also occur, forming a variety of compounds such as
aldehydes, alcohols, and acids. These compounds may further oxidize and react
with each other to form more compounds. Some of these compounds may be
soluble in oil, resulting in a viscosity increase; others may be insoluble and form
varnish or sludge.
Metal Deactivators
Additives that are used as corrosion and rust inhibitors form coatings on metal
surfaces which also act as metal deactivators. Metal deactivators also inhibit
oxidation by coating metals such as lead, copper, and iron, which could act as
oxidation catalysts.

How to Select an Oil
General Information
There are several important factors to consider in the selection of an oil for
proper governor operation. Following is a list of those factors and how they affect
governor operation.
Viscosity
In governor applications, a change in viscosity can seriously affect performance.
If the oil is too thin, the governor can become unstable. If the oil is too thick, the
governor will become sluggish and unresponsive.
The higher the VI (Viscosity Index) number, the less effect temperature has on
viscosity change. Our recommended range of viscosities for proper governor
operation is from 50 to 3000 SUS with a nominal 150 SUS being ideal. With this
in mind, proper oil selection would be that with 150 SUS at operating temperature
and a high VI
Pour Point
We recommend an oil with a pour point 8 to 11 Celsius degrees (15 to 20
Fahrenheit degrees) below the lowest starting temperature anticipated. This
avoids possible pump cavitation and slow response. In arctic conditions, it may
be necessary to install an oil heater. Contact Woodward for information
concerning the specific requirements of your installation.
Shear Stability
In applications where severe service is expected or long spans between oil
changes are required, an oil with a high shear stability should be selected. Check
with an oil company representative for information regarding the shear stability of
a particular oil.
Thermal Stability
For service conditions expecting long-term high-temperature operation, an oil
with high thermal stability should be selected. Multi-viscosity oils extend the
operating temperature range while still maintaining proper viscosity. However,
they have relatively poor thermal and shear stability, resulting in shorter useful
life. A good alternative is synthetic oils. These products have good temperature
viscosity characteristics and good thermal and shear stability.
Woodward 5
Wärtsilä id: WDAAA273494 c
Sludge Dispersion
Dispersants are especially useful in protecting engines that rarely reach normal
operating temperature. This type of service leads to the formation of sludge,
which coats parts and can block internal oil passages in the governor.
Seal Compatibility
Oils used in governors must be compatible with these materials. While significant
shrinkage or softening of seals cannot be tolerated, a slight swelling is often
desirable. If the base oil cannot cause sufficient swelling, a seal swell agent may
be used.
Oil Oxidation
When subjected to sufficient agitation, all engine/governor oils will entrap air and
produce foam. This, in turn, causes more problems. Oil reaction increases
exposure of the oil to oxygen, which increases the rate of oxidation. Air and foam
also reduce lubricant efficiency as a coolant and as a hydraulic fluid. Retained air
changes oil to a compressible fluid and may cause a perfectly adjusted governor
to become unstable. To eliminate foaming, additives with a lower surface tension
than the oil and low solubility are added to the lubricant used. The additives
weaken and rupture the oil film surrounding the bubbles.
Anti-wear Additives
Oils containing anti-wear additive packages provide more protection during
periods of boundary lubrication, when true hydrodynamic lubrication is not
possible, due to high loads, low speed, excessive temperatures, etc. This
additional lubrication is possible due to the formation of protective films on metal
surfaces.
6 Woodward
Wärtsilä id: WDAAA273494 c
ZDP is corrosive to silver and tends to attack it. Oils with a ZDP anti-
wear additive are not recommended for use in the PGEV governor
with an oil-filled side plate. The PGEV governor contains a load-
control resistor with silver contacts. Increased silver contamination
of the oil and wear of the load-control resistor contacts may result
from using an oil with a ZDP anti-wear additive. PGE governors and
PGEV governors without an oil-filled side plate may continue to use
oils with a ZDP anti-wear additive, as the oil does not come into
contact with the silver contacts.
This range is shown in the “Legend” (at the bottom of the Oil Chart) and in the Oil
Chart as the “Acceptable Operating Range”. The higher the viscosity number, the
less effect temperature has on viscosity change.
Woodward governors are designed to give stable operation with most oils if oil
viscosity at the operating temperature span is within a range of 50 to 3000 SUS.
The ideal range of viscosities for governor operation is from 100 to 300 SUS at
normal governor operating temperatures. The governor oil operating
temperatures are shown on a scale from –40 to +116 °C (–40 to +240 °F) on top
of the Oil Chart. This range is represented by the white sections in the legend
and in the Oil Table as the “Ideal Operating Range”.

limited periods of time only.
The hatched sections designated “Pour Point” in the legend and in the Oil Chart
indicate the temperature range where oil gets progressively thicker to reach its
pout point. The approximate pour point is represented by the low temperature
end of the hatched section (left-hand end).
If the oil is too thick, the governor can become sluggish and unresponsive. An oil
with a pour point 8 to 11 Celsius degrees (15 to 20 Fahrenheit degrees) below
the lowest starting temperature anticipated is recommended.
The cross-hatched sections to the right of the white sections in the legend and in
the Oil Chart designate the high temperature limits acceptable for operation for
limited periods of time only. The right-hand end of these sections represents the
approximate degradation temperature of the oil.
Prolonged use at temperatures above this point, without frequent oil change, may
result in governor failure. To avoid governor operation close to the point of oil
degradation, change to an oil more temperature resistant or lower the governor
operating temperature with a heat exchanger, or both.
Synthetic Oils
Most synthetic lubricants are excellent for governor use, provided they meet
viscosity requirements. Synthetics provide better lubrication than conventional
oils under severe demands, particularly at high speeds or broad temperature
ranges. They are not generally recommended as an alternative to straight
mineral oil in standard applications.

Synthetic lubricants are classed according to chemical source: for example, the
silicones, the polyglycols, the synthesized hydrocarbons, and the organic esters.
Silicone Lubricants
The name "silicones" has been broadly applied to several different base fluids,
and they are available in a wide range of viscosities.
The main advantage over petroleum oils comes from the formulations that
provide very high viscosity index (usually in the 200 to 300 range), high
resistance to oxidation, and very low volatility.
Polysulfide additives have greatly improved the load-carrying capacity and anti-
wear properties of silicone lubricants. Silicone oils have little effect on most
rubbers, but this is not the case with other oils. Systems previously lubricated
with other oils should be cleaned and flushed.
Silicone oils are used in high temperature, high pressure hydraulic systems, air
compressors, and gear boxes. The cost of these oils is competitive with other
synthetic oils.
Polyglycol Lubricants
Examples of polyglycol lubricants are the glycols, polyethers, and polyalkylene
glycols. These are the least expensive of the synthetics.
Polyglycols are not compatible with petroleum oils and are not acceptable for
governor use in that they attack paint and other non-metallic materials, although
they have little effect on rubber.
Synthesized Hydrocarbons
Synthesized hydrocarbons are high performance oils that are made from a
petroleum-derived raw material and not from the refining of petroleum.
10 Woodward
Wärtsilä id: WDAAA273494 c
Organic Esters
Organic esters are formed by reacting of alcohol and certain types of acids. The
two categories of esters used mostly for synthetic oils are dibasic acid ester and
polyol esters. Characteristics of organic esters are much the same as the
synthesized hydrocarbons.
Remarks
In applications where the Woodward governor or actuator shares the oil supply
with the engine, use the oil recommended by the engine manufacturer. Protect
governors or actuators using engine oil with a suitable filter. Refer to the
appropriate governor manual for filter size requirements.
Providing all other necessary characteristics are met, most detergent oils are
satisfactory for use in governors and actuators. The oil that meets the
requirements and is locally available should be selected.
In addition to oils listed in the Oil Chart, oils which meet the API (American
Petroleum Institute) engine service classification in either the “S” group or the “C”
group (starting with “SA” and “CA” through the current API standard) are suitable
for governor service. Oils meeting performance requirements of the following US
military specifications are also suitable:
MIL-L-2104A
MIL-L-2104B
MIL-L-2104C
MIL-L-46152
MIL-L-46152A
MIL-L46152B
MIL-L-45199B

Oil Maintenance
General Information
Oil maintenance is essential to long and reliable governor operation. Regular oil
changes must be maintained, but there are also other important factors to
consider.
Once a class of oil is selected, continue using that oil. Adding or changing oil of
one class to another class without thoroughly cleaning a hydraulic system may
cause operational problems such as foaming, filter plugging, and sludge
formation. Some classes of oil may not be compatible with diaphragms, gaskets,
or seals.
Clean oil is a necessity, whether filling the governor for the first time or whether
adding make-up oil. Clean oil cannot remain clean if the container or pouring
spout is not clean. Partially used cans of oil should not be used unless kept
covered in a clean area. Cleanliness of oil and container cannot be overstressed.
Most governors with self-contained sumps do not have filters or screens, and this
makes it essential that contaminants are not introduced into the governor through
the oil. Make sure to protect governors using engine oil with a suitable filter.
Refer to the appropriate governor manual for filter size requirements.
The effects of oil on governors using engine oil are determined by filter changes
and engine oil condition. If engine manufacturer's oil recommendations are
closely followed, satisfactory service should result.
This condition is best determined by oil analysis, but because the cost of doing
this exceeds the cost of a quart or two of governor oil, it is not a practical solution
on a continual basis. Analysis can be used to set up a maintenance schedule
which should remain in effect as long as the original conditions do not change.
Experience with other hydraulic equipment similar to governors can also be used
as a guideline. Conditions such as operating temperature, atmospheric
conditions which include dirt, moisture, etc., or anything that may change the
composition of the oil, or shorten its useful life, should be taken into account
when determining the frequency of oil changes.
Anytime a known contaminant gets into the governor, the governor should be
drained, flushed, and refilled with clean oil as soon as possible.
12 Woodward
Wärtsilä id: WDAAA273494 c
Oil that has been carefully selected to match the operating conditions and is
compatible with governor seals should give long service between oil changes.
For governors operating under ideal conditions (minimum exposure to dust and
water, within the temperature limits of the oil), oil changes can be extended to
two or more years. If available, a regularly scheduled oil analysis is helpful in
determining the frequency of oil changes.
Oil change intervals are normally recommended by the engine manufacturer for
the engine. However, if governor problems develop due to oil breakdown or
contaminated oil, the frequency of oil changes should be increased for a specific
lubricant.

If the drain time is insufficient for the solvent to completely drain or evaporate,
flush the governor with a lighter weight of the same oil it is being refilled with to
avoid dilution and possible contamination of the new oil. To avoid
recontamination, the replacement oil should be free of dirt, water, and other
foreign material. Use clean containers to store and transfer oil.
Oil Filters
Industrial surveys show that 80% of all governor problems are caused by dirty or
contaminated oil. Although particles of dirt are always present, good properly-
maintained filtration controls dirt particles effectively.
Proper use of filtration not only pays for itself, but it also reduces the overall cost
of operation and maintenance. Compared to the cost of downtime, proper
filtration is a good investment.
14 Woodward
Wärtsilä id: WDAAA273494 c
Thus β10 = 2 means that the filter will remove 1 particle greater than 10 µm for
every 2 particles greater than 10 µm entering the filter.
In the above example, assume 10 000 particles greater than 10 µm were counted
upstream, and 5000 particles greater than 10 µm were counted downstream.
Then,
The first three numbers (2/20/75) are the Beta ratings at the particle size of the
second three numbers (6, 11, and 15 µm respectively).
Efficiency
The efficiency of a filter at a given particle size can be derived by the formula:
So, if β10 = 2
Efficiency at 10 µm = (1–1/2) x 100% = 50%
Woodward 15
Wärtsilä id: WDAAA273494 c
βx = 1.01 is 1% efficient
βx = 1.1 is 9% efficient
βx = 1.5 is 33% efficient
βx = 2.0 is 50% efficient (nominal)*
βx = 5.0 is 80% efficient
βx = 10.0 is 90% efficient
βx = 20.0 is 95% efficient
βx = 75.0 is 98.7% efficient (absolute)*
βx = 1000.0 is 99.9% efficient
βx = 3000.0 is 99.97% efficient
*—The filtration industry is coming to accept a nominal rating as 50% efficient at removing
a given particle size, and an absolute rating as at least 98.6% efficient at removing a given
particle size.
Filter Capacity
Filter capacity is the amount of contaminant (measured in grams) that a filter
element will hold before reaching a specified differential pressure. Everything
else being equal, the capacity indicates the service life of the element. The
greater the capacity, the longer the life.
Oil Compatibility
Filtering elements are compatible with petroleum base lubricating oils. When
using synthetic fluids, it is advisable to check with a filter company representative
regarding compatibility of specific elements.
Oil Lacquering
Hydro-mechanical governors can be affected by a condition known as oil
“lacquering”. If not prevented, lacquering can lead to various possible failure
modes, with the potential for the governor to stick in the max fuel or min fuel
position.
Lacquering can lead to governor failure, with the potential for engine
overspeed. In a marine application, a vessel could be unable to
maintain headway. Preventing lacquering, and having a backup
governing/safety system, are essential for safety.
The results can range from sticking pilot valves to plugged oil passages and
orifices.
Lacquering is generally caused by the oil breaking down, which can be caused
by:
too high an oil temperature;
too long an interval between oil changes;
water condensing inside the governor during cooldown periods (water in oil
can cause hydrolysis which is a known failure mode for oils).
16 Woodward
Wärtsilä id: WDAAA273494 c
Carefully consider the choice of governor oil with your oil supplier. When
choosing an oil interval, start with shorter than expected intervals and slowly try
longer intervals. Monitor the condition of the oil, especially the build-up of
deposits, to ensure that the oil remains within the operating conditions defined by
the oil supplier.

General Information
Introduction
This manual covers the Woodward model PGA (pressure compensated–air
speed setting) marine governor. The PGA marine governor with a long column
consists of a basic PG hydraulic governor for automatic regulation of prime
mover speed and pneumatic speed changing mechanism for remote control of
speed. Two types of power cylinders are available, a single-acting spring-return,
or double-acting differential-piston-type power cylinder with tailrod (see Table
1-1). For the 12 ft-lb (16 J) type, a spring return power cylinder is available for
either pull or rotary output. For the 29 ft-lb (39 J) type, a differential power
cylinder is available with rotary output.
Table 1-1. Governor Oil Pressure Versus Power Cylinder Work Capacities
(Typical)
All PGA marine governors have the same basic components regardless of how
simple or complex the complete control may be. The following components,
found in each PGA marine governor, are sufficient to enable the governor to
maintain a constant engine speed as long as the load does not exceed engine
capacity:
An oil pump oil accumulator, and a relief valve maintains a uniform oil
pressure
A centrifugal flyweight head-pilot valve assembly controls the flow of oil to
and from the governor power cylinder assembly
A power cylinder assembly—sometimes referred to as a servomotor—
positions the fuel racks, fuel valve, or steam valve of the prime mover
A compensation system stabilizes the governor system
A pneumatic speed setting mechanism is used to adjust the governor speed
setting remotely
Description
Governor
The governor controls engine or turbine speed by regulating the amount of fuel or
steam supplied to the prime mover. Speed control can be isochronous (the
governor maintains a constant steady state speed, within the capacity of the unit,
regardless of load), or with droop (speed decreases as load increases).
Woodward 1
PGA Governor Manual 36604
An air pressure signal from a pneumatic air transmitter or controller supplies air
to the governor speed-setting mechanism. The governor controls the engine at a
definite speed for each air pressure. The most common air pressure range for
the governor is 7 to 71 psi (48 to 490 kPa). Normal minimum control air pressure
is 3 psi (21 kPa); maximum is 100 psi (690 kPa). We recommend a governor
operating speed of between 250 to 1000 rpm.
Base Assemblies
Various base assemblies are available for use on PGA governors. Five types of
bases are mentioned in this manual, along with appropriate outline drawings, and
exploded views:
PG standard
PG/UG-8 standard
PG/UG-8-90° (base rotated 90° with respect to PG/UG-8 standard)
PG/UG-40
PG extended square
These base assemblies have essentially the same basic components. The
difference between units is the base configuration and the type of drive shaft
used (see Figures 1-3 through 1-7). The PG standard base uses a serrated or a
special drive shaft: the PG/UG-8, PG/UG-8-90°, and PG/UG-40 base may use
either a serrated or keyed drive shaft; and the PG extended square base uses
only a keyed drive shaft.

Installation
Introduction
Refer to Figures 1-3 through 1-7 for physical dimensions of a PGA governor.
Use care in handling the governor and be particularly careful to avoid striking the
drive shaft. Do not drop or rest the governor on its drive shaft. Such treatment
could damage the governor oil pump gears.
Receiving
Your PGA governor is received from our factory bolted to a wooden platform in a
vertical position. After testing the governor at the factory, it is drained of oil. This
leaves a light film of oil covering the internal parts. preventing rust. No internal
cleaning is required.
Storage
Store the governor in a vertical position and full of oil. To hold the governor in a
vertical position, bolt it to a platform or leave it in the shipping crate. Before
storing the governor, fill it with oil since it is shipped empty.
Mounting Requirements
A gasket must be used between the governor and accessory mounting pad.
Mount the governor square on its mounting pad using the correct length of
coupling between the governor and the drive. Be sure there is no binding, or
excessive side load in the drive shaft assembly, or excessive looseness in the
coupling. There should be no forces pushing the drive shaft into the governor.
Mount the governor in a vertical position.
If the governor being installed has been designed for rotation in one
direction only, be sure the engine or turbine drive to governor drive
rotation is the same, otherwise the governor could be damaged.
Specifications for individual governors indicate if the unit has been
plugged to limit rotation to one direction only and is not equipped
with check valves.
Woodward 9
PGA Governor Manual 36604
Align the linkage from the governor to the fuel pumps properly to eliminate
binding and/or excessive backlash. The relationship of governor terminal shaft
angular position to fuel control position must be adjusted in accordance with the
engine manufacturer’s specifications. Many governors include a feature
commonly referred to as compensation “cutoff”. Due to the location of the
compensation cutoff port in the power cylinder wail, it is necessary that the
governor to fuel control linkage be adjusted so that at idle no-load the output of
the governor is at least 15% of its travel from minimum position.
Make the hydraulic and electrical connections (if any) required for the particular
model governor being installed.
For applications where the Woodward governor shares the oil supply with the
prime mover, use the oil recommended by the prime mover manufacturer.
Governor oil is both a lubricating oil and a hydraulic oil. It must have a viscosity
index that allows it to perform over the operating temperature range and it must
have the proper blending of additives that cause it to remain stable and
predictable over this range. Governor fluid must be compatible with seal
materials (nitrile, polyacrylic, and fluorocarbon). Many automotive and gas engine
oils, industrial lubricating oils, and other oils of mineral or synthetic origin meet
these requirements. Woodward governors are designed to give stable operation
with most oils, if the fluid viscosity at the operating temperature span is within a
50 to 3000 SUS (Saybolt Universal Seconds) range. Ideally, at the normal
operating temperature the viscosity should be between 100 to 300 SUS. Poor
governor response or instability usually is an indication that the oil is too thick or
too thin.
Operating a governor continuously beyond the high limit temperature of the oil
will result in oil oxidation. This is identified by varnish or sludge deposits on the
governor parts. To reduce oil oxidation, lower the governor operating
temperature with a heat exchanger or other means, or change to an oil more
oxidation resistant at the operating temperature.
10 Woodward
Manual 36604 PGA Governor
Specific oil viscosity recommendations are given in the chart (Table 2-1). Select
a readily available good brand of oil, either mineral or synthetic, and continue
using it. Do not mix the different classes of oils. Oil that meets the API (American
Petroleum Institute) engine service classification in either the “5” group or the “C”
group, starting with “SA” and “CA” through “SF” and “CD” is suitable for governor
service. Oils meeting performance requirements of the following specifications
are also suitable. MIL-L-2104A, MIL-L-2104B, MIL-L-2104C, MIL-L-46152, MIL-
L-46152A, MIL-L-46152B, MIL-L-45199B.
Oil that has been carefully selected to match the operating conditions and is
compatible with governor components should give long service between oil
changes. For governors operating under ideal conditions (minimum exposure to
dust and water and within the temperature limits of the oil), oil changes can be
extended to two or more years. If available, a regularly scheduled oil analysis is
helpful in determining the frequency of oil changes.
Clearances
Leave adequate clearance for connecting the control linkage, filling the governor
with oil, and removing the cover.

Adjustments
Introduction
These adjustments may be made in the field for optimum performance or after
repairs. Always note the starting point before making any adjustments.
Normally, the only requirements for putting a new or overhauled governor into
service are filling the governor with oil and adjusting the compensation needle
valve to obtain maximum stability. All other operating adjustments are made
during factory testing according to engine manufacturer’s specifications and
should not require further adjustment. Do not attempt internal adjustment of the
governor unless thoroughly familiar with the proper procedures.
1. With the prime mover operating at IDLE, open the compensation needle
valve several turns to cause the engine to hunt. In some cases, opening of
the needle valve alone may not cause the engine to hunt, but manually
disturbing the governor speed setting will. Allow several minutes of hunting
to remove trapped air in the hydraulic circuits.
Woodward 13
PGA Governor Manual 36604
The recommended speed range for the PG governor is 250 to 1000 rpm with a
maximum speed range of 200 to 1600 rpm.
2. Turn the manual speed adjusting knob fully ccw (until clutch slips) to the
minimum speed position.
3. Initially position the high speed adjusting set screw (125, Figure 3-1) so that
upper end is flush with top of the T-shaped speed setting screw (123).
14 Woodward
Manual 36604 PGA Governor
4. Initially position the speed setting piston stop setscrew (48, Figure 3-3) so
that it projects 1/2 inch above top of the speed setting cylinder.
Woodward 15
PGA Governor Manual 36604
Make certain the pneumatic low speed adjusting screw (109) is not
contacting stop pin (106) in the restoring lever and that the piston
stop setscrew (48) is not interfering with upward movement of the
speed setting piston.
6 Calibrate the governor speed range to the control air pressure range as follows:
a. Slowly increase control air pressure toward the required maximum
value. Exercise care not to overspeed the prime mover.
Make certain the maximum speed limiting valve adjusting screw (44,
Figure 3-3) on speed setting piston rod is not contacting and’
prematurely unseating the limiting check valve (43) in top of the
speed setting cylinder.
7. After every adjustment of the pivot bracket, the low speed setting must be
readjusted. Repeat steps 5 and 6 until the required low speed exactly
corresponds with the required minimum control air pressure and both high
speed and maximum control air pressure are reached simultaneously.
Speed must begin to increase instantly with any increase in control air
pressure above the minimum value.
8. Adjust control air pressure to the maximum value. Allow prime mover speed
to stabilize. Turn the limiting valve adjusting screw (44, Figure 3-3) cw until
prime mover speed just begins to drop, then back out 1/4 to 1/2 turn and
lock in position. This will prevent or limit accidental overspeeding of the
prime mover should the speed setting piston be moved past its high speed
position for any reason.
10. Turn the piston stop setscrew (48, Figure 3-3) cw until it just contacts top of
the speed setting piston and then back out three full turns (3/32 inch/2.4
mm) and lock in position.
16 Woodward
Manual 36604 PGA Governor
11. Lift the shutdown rod upward far enough to remove any end play (lost
motion) but not so far as to cause prime mover speed to drop below the low
speed setting. While holding the shutdown rod up, position shutdown nut on
the rod so that it is 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) above upper end of the fulcrum
block on the speed setting piston rod and lock in place with upper nut.
12. If the governor is to shut down the prime mover when control air is turned off
or accidentally interrupted, adjust the pneumatic low speed stop screw so
that it is 0.040 to 0.050 inch (1.02 to 1.27 mm) below stop pin in the
restoring lever at low speed. Turn off control air to the governor and allow
the prime mover to shut down. Readjust stop screw for 0.002 to 0.005 inch
(0.05 to 0.13 mm) clearance between head of screw and stop pin in the
restoring lever.
13. If the governor is to go to low speed when control air is turned off or
interrupted, adjust the pneumatic low speed stop screw so that the desired
speed is reached with no control air pressure. Speed should be at least 20
rpm below idle.
Loosen and tighten lock nut (108, Figure 3-4), to adjust the low speed
stop screw (109), only when the governor is stopped. Governor
rotation, while making this adjustment, causes the pilot valve
plunger to bind in the pilot valve bushing.
14. Adjust maximum speed setting for the manual speed setting knob as
follows:
a. Turn off control air to the governor. If the governor is adjusted to
shutdown upon interruption of control air, turn the manual speed
adjusting knob cw until prime mover speed increases slightly before
turning off control air.
b. Turn the manual speed knob cw until prime mover is running at high
speed.
c. Turn the high speed adjusting setscrew 125, Figure 3-1) in the speed
adjusting screw 123 cw until it just contacts the high speed stop pin. If
the setscrew is turned too far, prime mover speed will decrease.
Woodward 17
PGA Governor Manual 36604
15. Make certain to turn the manual speed adjusting knob fully ccw to the
minimum speed position before resuming normal operation under pneumatic
control.
Do not move the cam past the “0” droop position as ‘negative’ droop
will occur (prime mover speed increases as the governor power
piston moves toward the maximum fuel or steam position). This will
result in very unstable governing action.
With the prime movers operating in parallel, the droop unit(s) must have sufficient
droop to prevent load interchanges between prime movers.

Some governors are equipped with a fuel limiter of the type illustrated in Figure
7-21. Since adjustment of this type of limiter is only possible on a test stand, no
instructions are provided in this manual. Complete Test stand adjustment
procedures are available in manual 36695, PG Manifold Air Pressure Bias Fuel
Limiter.
Figures 3-6 and 3-7 show various adjustments, and indicate the effect of each
adjustment.

Adjustment (A)
Adjusting this screw varies the angle of the charge pressure fuel limiter cam and
the slope of the fuel limiter characteristic.
After making use of this adjustment it is necessary to trim the base of the limiter
curve, by means of adjustment (C), in order to restore it to its original value. The
graph shows the relationship between increments of governor tailrod travel at
fuel limit against units of adjustment after both adjustments have been made.

This is the bellows datum adjusting screw. Its setting determines the manifold
charge pressure at which the fuel limiter piston begins to move downwards,
increasing the governor tailrod travel at which fuel limit occurs. Its effect is to
move the limiting characteristic sideways parallel with the charge pressure axis.
Adjustment (C)
Adjustment of this screw raises or lowers the entire manifold charge pressure
fuel limiting characteristic.
Adjustment (D)
This is the speed setting fuel limiter datum setting nut. Its adjustment raises or
lowers the entire limiting characteristic.
Adjustment (E)
Adjustment of the position of this linkage pivot pin in the slotted lever changes the
linkage ratio such that for a fixed advance in speed setting piston position, the
corresponding movement of governor power piston tailrod, at the point of fuel limit, may
be increased or decreased (the slope of the fuel limiting characteristic may be altered).
After making use of this adjustment it is necessary to trim the base of the limiter
curve, by means of adjustment (D), in order to restore it to its original level. The
graph shows the relationship between increments of governor tailrod travel at
fuel limit against units of adjustment, after both adjustments have been made.
Adjustment (F)
A constant fuel limit is held for all speeds below the speed setting at which this
screw contacts the lower limiter lever.
Adjustment of the screw varies the speed setting at which the sloping portion of
the limiting characteristic is reached. Its effect is to move the characteristic
sideways, parallel with the speed setting axis.
Adjustment (G)
This adjustment varies the level of the constant “fuel limit” at low speed settings referred
to under adjustment (F). It influences only this lower portion of the characteristic.

Troubleshooting
Introduction
It is impossible to anticipate every kind of trouble that is encountered in the field.
This covers the most common troubles experienced. Poor governing may be due
to faulty governor performance, or it may be due to the governor attempting to
correct for faulty operation of the engine or turbine auxiliary equipment. The
effect of any auxiliary equipment on the overall control required of the governor
must also be considered.
Oil
Governor oil level must be kept between the lines on the oil level gauge glass
with the unit operating. The correct level is at the joint line of the power case and
column—the upper line on the gauge glass—and no higher. Instructions given on
decals near the oil gauge should be strictly adhered to. Dirty oil causes
approximately 50% of all governor troubles. Use clean new or filtered oil.
Containers used to fill governors from bulk containers should be perfectly clean.
Oil contaminated with water breaks down rapidly, causes foaming and corrodes
internal governor parts.
High overspeeds and low underspeeds, or slow return to speed, after a load
change or speed setting change, are some of the results of an incorrect setting of
the compensating needle valve.
Definitions
Use the chart on the following pages to determine the probable causes of faulty
operation, and to correct these troubles. Terms used in the chart are defined as
follows:
Hunt
A rhythmic variation of speed which can be eliminated by blocking governor
operation manually, but which will recur when returned to governor control.
22 Woodward
Manual 36604 PGA Governor
Surge
A rhythmic variation of speed, always of large magnitude, which can be
eliminated by blocking governor action manually and which will not recur when
returned to governor control, unless speed adjustment is changed or the load
changes.
Jiggle
A high frequency vibration of the governor fuel rod end (or terminal shaft) and
fuel linkage. Do not confuse this with normal controlling action of the governor.
Preliminary Inspection
Governor troubles are usually revealed in speed variations of the prime mover,
but it does not necessarily follow that such variations are caused by the
governor. When improper speed variations appear, the following procedure
should be performed.
1. Check the load to be sure the speed changes are not the result of load
changes beyond the capacity of the prime mover.
2. Check engine operation to be sure all cylinders are firing properly and that
the fuel injectors are in good operating condition and properly calibrated.
3. Check linkage between governor and fuel or steam control to be sure there
is no binding or excessive backlash.
6. Check governor oil pressure. A test port is provided in two sides of the
governor power case for this purpose.
7. The source of most troubles in any hydraulic governor stems from dirty oil.
Grit and other impurities can be introduced into the governor with the oil, or
form when the oil begins to breakdown (oxidize) or become sludgy. The
internal moving parts are continually lubricated by the oil within the unit.
Valves, pistons and plungers will stick and even “freeze” in their bores, due
to excessive wear caused by grit and impurities in the oil. If this is the case
erratic operation and poor response can be corrected by flushing the unit
with fuel oil or kerosene. The use of commercial solvents is not
recommended as they may damage seals or gaskets.
Change the oil and flush the governor twice a year if possible. Remove the
cover, open the drain cock and drain out the old oil. Flush the governor by
filling it with fuel oil, and with the engine running at low speed, cycle the
governor. Cycle the governor by opening the needle valve two or three
turns. Let the governor hunt for a minute or two and then stop the engine
and drain the governor. Flush the governor once again. Fill the governor
with oil, pouring it over all the internal parts that are visible. Start the engine
and reset the compensation needle valve.

Principles of Operation
Introduction
For purposes of description, the PGA governor consists of three major sections;
a basic governor section, a speed setting section, and a speed droop linkage. A
schematic diagram (Figure 5-1) provides a visual means of understanding the
operation of the governor.
Basic Governor
The basic governor consists of an oil pump, two accumulators, a speeder spring,
a flyweight head assembly, a thrust bearing, a pilot valve plunger, a rotating
bushing, a buffer compensation system, and a power cylinder.
The governor drive shaft passes through the governor base and engages the
rotating bushing. The oil pump drive gear is an integral part of the bushing. The
pump supplies pressure oil for operation of the basic governor section, the speed
setting section, and all other auxiliary features or devices except applications
using a remote load regulator where engine oil is supplied to the load control
system. The accumulators provide a reservoir of pressurized oil and the relief
valve bypasses excess oil to the governor sump.
Where accumulator pressure exceeds 100 psi (690 kPa), a pressure reducing
valve is fitted to the main power case. This reduces pressure of the oil supplied
to the speed setting mechanism and auxiliary devices. Duplicate suction and
discharge check valves at the pump permit either cw or ccw rotation of the
governor without modification or change to the governor.
Woodward 27
PGA Governor Manual 36604
Pilot Valve Plunger
Flyweight centrifugal force tends to lift the plunger while speeder spring force
tends to lower the plunger. The greater of two opposing forces moves the pilot
valve plunger up or down. When the prime mover is on-speed at any speed
setting, these forces are equal and the flyweights assume a vertical position. In
this position, the control land on the pilot valve plunger is centered over the
regulating port in the rotating bushing. No oil, other than leakage make-up, flows
to or from the buffer compensation system or power cylinder. A change in either
of these two forces moves the plunger from its centered position.
1. When the governor speed setting is unchanged but an additional load slows
the prime mover and governor (thereby decreasing flyweight centrifugal
force).
2. When the prime mover speed is unchanged but speeder spring force is
increased to raise the governor speed setting.
1. The governor speed setting is unchanged but load is removed from the
prime mover causing an increase in prime mover and governor speed (and
hence, an increase in flyweight centrifugal force).
2. The prime mover speed is unchanged but speeder spring force is reduced
to lower the governor speed setting.
When the plunger is lowered (an underspeed condition), pressure oil is directed
into the buffer compensation system and power cylinder to raise the power piston
and increase fuel or steam. When lifted (an overspeed condition), oil is permitted
to drain from these areas to sump and the power piston moves downward to
decrease fuel or steam.
28 Woodward
Manual 36604 PGA Governor
Speed Setting or Load Increase
Increasing the speed setting or increasing load on the prime mover at a given
speed setting have an identical effect. In either case, the flyweights move inward
(underspeed) due to either the increase in speeder spring force or to the
decrease in centrifugal force caused by the decrease in prime mover speed as
load is added. The movement of the flyweights is translated into a downward
movement of the pilot valve plunger. This directs pressure oil into the buffer
system, causing the buffer piston to move toward the power cylinder. The oil
displaced by the movement of the buffer piston forces the power piston to move
upward in the increase direction.
The oil pressures on either side of the buffer piston are simultaneously
transmitted to opposite sides of the plunger compensation land with the higher
pressure on the lower side. This pressure differential is proportional to buffer
piston displacement which, in turn, is determined by the buffer spring rate, rate of
power piston travel, and needle valve setting. The new upward force produced is
added to flyweight force and assists in restoring the balance of forces and re-
centering the pilot valve plunger slightly before the prime mover has fully
accelerated. In effect, this enables the governor to cut off the additional fuel
needed for acceleration by stopping the power piston when it has reached a point
corresponding to that amount of fuel or steam required for steady state operation
at the new higher speed or load. As the prime mover continues to accelerate
toward the set speed, the compensation force is gradually dissipated to offset the
continuing increase in flyweight force. This is done by equalizing the pressures
on each side of the compensation land through the needle valve at a rate
proportional to the continued rate of acceleration. If the rate of dissipation is the
same as the rate of increase in flyweight force, the pressure differential is
reduced to zero at the instant flyweight force becomes exactly equal to speeder
spring force. This minimizes speed overshoot and permits the governor to quickly
re-establish stable operation. The needle valve setting determines the rate at
which the differential pressure is dissipated and allows the governor to be
“matched” to the characteristics of the prime mover and its load. The compressed
buffer spring returns the buffer piston to its centered position as the pressure
differential is dissipated.
Whenever large changes in speed setting or load are made, the buffer piston
moves far enough to uncover a bypass port in the buffer cylinder. The pressure
differential across the buffer piston is restricted to some maximum value, and oil
is to flow directly to the power cylinder. The power piston responds quickly to
large changes in speed setting or load. Since the pressure differential across the
compensating land is restricted, the prime mover may overshoot or undershoot
slightly more than normal.
Woodward 29
PGA Governor Manual 36604
With large decreases in speed or load, the power piston moves to the “no fuel”
position and blocks the compensation oil passage between the power cylinder
and needle valve. This prevents normal equalization of the compensation
pressures. The buffer piston is held off center and the level of the pressure
transmitted to the upper side of the plunger compensation land is increased. The
increased pressure differential, added to the effect of the speeder spring,
temporarily increases the governor speed setting. The governor begins corrective
action as soon as prime mover speed drops below the temporary speed setting.
This starts the power piston upward to restore the fuel or steam supply in
sufficient time to prevent a large underspeed transient. The above action is
sometimes referred to as “compensation cutoff”. When the upward movement of
the power piston again uncovers the compensation oil passage, normal
compensating action resumes and stabilizes prime mover speed at the actual
speed setting of the governor.
The governor speed setting is directly proportional to control air pressure (speed
setting increases as air pressure increases). An increase in control air pressure
causes the bellows to contract and move the pilot valve plunger downward
(increase speed).
The speed at which the governor controls is determined by the force exerted on
the toes of the flyweights by the speeder spring in the basic governor section.
Speeder spring force is determined by the position of the piston in the speed
setting cylinder. The position of the piston, in turn, is determined by the volume of
oil trapped in the area above the piston. The direction and rate of oil flow into or
out of this area is controlled by the speed setting pilot valve plunger which is
mechanically linked to the bellows. If the plunger is moved downward,
uncovering the upper edge of a metering port in the bushing, pressure oil is
allowed to flow into the speed setting cylinder. This displaces the piston
downward, further increasing speeder spring tension and increasing the speed
setting. If the plunger is moved upward, uncovering the lower edge of the
metering port, oil is permitted to drain from the cylinder. This allows the piston
spring to raise the piston, decreasing speeder spring force and lowering the
speed setting.
30 Woodward
Manual 36604 PGA Governor
The rate of movement of the speed setting piston over its full downward stroke
(idle to maximum speed) is retarded to occur over some specific time interval.
This is done by admitting governor pressure oil into the rotating bushing through
an orifice which registers with the main supply port once in every revolution of the
bushing. This reduces the rate at which oil is supplied to the control port in the
bushing and therefore, the rate of oil flow to the speed setting cylinder. The
diameter of the orifice determines the specific time interval which may be
anywhere within a nominal range of 1 to 50 seconds. Therefore, the rate at which
the speed setting may be increased is restricted under all conditions of operation.
The longer rates are generally used with turbo-supercharged units to permit the
supercharger to accelerate with the engine. The rate of movement of the power
piston over its full upward stroke (maximum to idle speed) is also restricted on
turbo-supercharged units to prevent compressor surge during decelerations. This
timing may be anywhere within a nominal range of 1 to 15 seconds. In these
cases, the speed setting pilot valve plunger has an additional land (not
illustrated) which covers the drain port in the bushing. A vertical slot in the drain
land registers with a second orifice in the rotating bushing once each revolution.
This restricts the rate at which the oil is allowed to drain from the speed setting
cylinder. The width of the slot in the drain land determines the length of time the
drain port (orifice) is open during each revolution and therefore the specific
deceleration time interval.
The manual speed setting knob must be turned fully ccw to raise the
manual speed setting screw to its uppermost (minimum or low
speed) position during pneumatic operation, If the speed setting
screw (knob) is in any position other than minimum speed, it will, in
effect, raise the pneumatic low speed setting of the governor and
prevent normal pneumatic operation at speed below this setting.
Woodward 31
PGA Governor Manual 36604
With an increase in control air pressure (increase speed setting), the force acting
on the bellows becomes greater than the restoring spring force and the bellows
contracts in a downward direction. This pushes the C-shaped link downward and
lowers the pilot valve plunger. Intermittent pressure oil then flows into the speed
setting cylinder, forcing the piston downward to further compress the speeder
spring and thereby increase the governor speed setting. As the piston moves
downward, the restoring lever attached at the right end to the upper end of the
piston rod pivots cw about an adjustable ball bearing fulcrum on the extended
arm of the manual speed setting screw. The left end of the lever is connected to
the restoring spring and a loading spring. The cw movement of the lever causes
a proportional increase in restoring spring force which, acting through the link,
gradually expands the bellows to its original length while simultaneously lifting
the plunger. When the net increase in restoring spring upward force equals the
increase in downward force resulting from the increase in control air pressure,
the bellows and plunger is re-centered (restored) with the plunger control land
covering the metering port in the bushing. This stops the flow of oil into the speed
setting cylinder, halting downward movement of the piston at the instant speeder
spring force reaches its new higher value corresponding to that higher control air
pressure. The loading spring ‘loads’ the restoring lever to maintain positive
contact between the lever and ball bearing fulcrum at all times.
With a decrease in control air pressure (decrease speed setting), the force acting
on the bellows becomes less than the restoring spring force and the bellows
expands in an upward direction. This allows the restoring spring to lift the C-
shaped link and pilot valve plunger. As oil drains from the speed setting cylinder
the piston rises, decreasing speeder spring force and the governor speed setting.
As the piston rises, the restoring lever pivots in a ccw direction, proportionally
reducing restoring spring force. The bellows gradually contracts to its original
length and simultaneously lowers the plunger. A decrease in control air pressure
decreases the downward pressure of the bellows. When the upward force of the
restoring spring equals the downward force of the bellows, the control land of the
speed setting pilot valve plunger centers the metering port in the bushing. This
stops oil drainage from the speed setting cylinder, halting upward movement of
the piston at the instant the speeder spring force reaches its new lower value
corresponding to the lower control air pressure.
The ratio of change in restoring spring force for a given movement of the speed
setting piston is determined by the distance between the ball bearing fulcrum and
the point at which the restoring lever is attached to the piston rod. Shortening this
distance decreases the governor speed range for a given control air pressure
range; lengthening this distance increases the speed range for a given air
pressure range.
Some applications may require that the governor be adjusted to go to low speed
upon intentional or accidental interruption of control air pressure or when control
air pressure drops below the required minimum value. In these instances, the
pneumatic low speed adjusting screw is set to contact a stop pin projecting from
the restoring lever when control air pressure and prime mover speed are at their
normal minimum values. If control air pressure is lost or reduced below the
minimum value, the restoring spring raises the speed setting pilot valve plunger
until the low speed adjusting screw contacts the stop pin in the restoring lever. As
the speed setting piston moves upward, the stop pin in the restoring lever
simultaneously pushes downward on the pneumatic low speed adjusting screw
re-centering the speed setting pilot valve plunger at the moment the piston
reaches its low speed position. Governors set to go to low speed upon loss of
control air pressure are usually equipped with an auxiliary shutdown device.
32 Woodward
Manual 36604 PGA Governor
If the governor is adjusted to go to shutdown upon loss of control air pressure,
the pneumatic low speed adjusting screw is set so that a definite clearance exists
between it and the stop pin in the restoring lever when the control air pressure is
reduced to zero and the governor is shut down. In this case, should control air
pressure be interrupted or reduced below the minimum value, the movement of
the restoring lever as the speed setting piston moves upward does not tend to re-
center the speed setting pilot valve plunger. Therefore, the piston continues to
move upward past the low speed position to the shutdown position.
Normal Shutdown
The shutdown device consists of a shutdown rod which projects upward through
the center of the speed setting piston rod and is attached to the top of the main
pilot valve plunger in the basic governor section. Two nuts on the upper end of
the shutdown rod complete the device. When control air pressure is turned off
the speed setting piston moves upward past its normal low speed position. After
a movement of 1/16-inch, the fulcrum block on the end of the piston rod contacts
the lower (shutdown) nut, lifting the shutdown rod and pilot valve plunger. Oil
drains from the power cylinder, and the power piston moves downward to the
zero fuel or steam position. Some governor applications may require that the
speed setting piston stop be used as a positive low speed stop. In such cases,
the shutdown nuts are usually omitted since the governor cannot be used or
adapted to shutdown the prime mover and some shutdown method external to
the governor must be provided.
Manual Operation
With no control air pressure, the pneumatic low speed adjusting screw is held
against the stop pin in the restoring lever by the restoring spring. The restoring
lever is directly connected, through the C-shaped link, to the speed setting pilot
valve plunger. Turning the knob cw (increase speed setting) causes the
leadscrew nut to move outward and lower the sliding collar under the speed
adjusting nut on the vertical shaft of the speed setting screw. This allows the
loading spring to move the speed setting screw (and ball bearing fulcrum)
downward with the collar until the high speed adjusting setscrew contacts the
high speed stop pin.
Woodward 33
PGA Governor Manual 36604
As the speed setting screw moves downward to a new position, the left end of
the restoring lever, pulled downward by the loading spring, pushes downward on
the pneumatic low speed adjusting screw and link, uncentering the speed setting
pilot valve plunger. Pressurized oil flows into the speed setting cylinder and
forces the piston downward, increasing the speed setting. The movement of the
piston causes a cw rotation of the restoring lever. Since the pneumatic low speed
adjusting screw is held against the stop pin in the restoring lever by the restoring
spring, the speed setting pilot valve plunger is lifted upward as the lever rotates
until the plunger is again re-centered at the instant the new higher speed position
is attained by the piston.
Turning the knob ccw (decrease speed setting) causes the leadscrew nut to
move inward and raise the sliding collar under the speed adjusting nut. This lifts
the speed setting screw (and ball bearing fulcrum) upward, raising the left end of
the restoring lever and thereby lifting the speed setting pilot valve plunger above
its centered position. As oil drains from the speed setting cylinder, the piston
moves upward, decreasing the speed setting. The ccw movement of the
restoring lever re-centers the plunger at the instant the new lower speed position
is attained by the piston.
Temperature Compensation
In early model governors, a bi-metal strip incorporated in the restoring lever
compensated for differential expansion and changes in spring rates due to
temperature variations. In late model governors, a temperature compensated
(reverse modulus) speeder spring is used in place of the bimetal strip. The
governor speed settings are better stabilized and drifting, due to changes in
ambient and/or operating temperatures are minimized.
34 Woodward
Manual 36604 PGA Governor
Operation
The linkage automatically changes the governor speed setting by reducing
speeder spring force a slight amount as a function of power piston travel in the
increase direction. Conversely, it increases speeder spring force as the piston
moves in the decrease direction. It consists of a fulcrum block attached to the
upper end of the speed setting piston rod, a lever and fulcrum pin assembly
connected between the fulcrum block and power piston tailrod, an adjustable
cam attached to the fulcrum pin, and a moveable plunger housed within the
speed setting piston rod. The movement of the power piston, transmitted through
the lever assembly causes a rotational movement of the cam which contacts the
top of the plunger. This, in turn, causes an upward (or downward) movement of
the plunger which rests on top of the speeder spring.
The position of the cam lobe with respect to the centerline of the fulcrum pin
determines the proportion of lever movement transmitted to the plunger. When
the centerline is common to both pin and cam lobe, no movement is transmitted
to the plunger. With such a setting (0 droop), the governor attempts to maintain
the set speed regardless of load (isochronous operation). If the lobe of the cam is
positioned at increasing distances from the centerline of the fulcrum pin, an
increasing proportion of lever movement is transmitted to the plunger (droop
operation). The exact position of the cam is determined by the prime mover
characteristics and the share of the load to be carried by that prime mover. The
cam must never be positioned on the opposite side of the fulcrum pin centerline
(toward the pneumatic receiver) as “negative” droop (speed increases with
movement of the power piston in the increase direction) occurs and results in
unstable operation.
Power Cylinders
12 ft-lb (16 J)
All power cylinder assemblies operate under the same basic principle, with a
reciprocating (push-pull) motion. Power cylinder assemblies with a rotary terminal
shaft are available as an alternate, depending upon the installation requirements.
In the arrangement shown in Figure 5-2, the oil needed to move the power piston
in the increase fuel direction is obtained when the governor pilot valve plunger is
lowered below its centered or balanced position. The opened port admits
pressure oil to the buffer piston area, moving the buffer piston, transferring an
equal volume of oil to the power cylinder, and forcing the power piston to move in
the direction to increase fuel to the prime mover.
Woodward 35
PGA Governor Manual 36604
To move the power piston in the decrease fuel direction, the governor pilot valve
plunger is raised above its centered position. The trapped oil in the power
cylinder is released to the sump and the power spring forces the power piston in
the decrease fuel direction.
To move the power piston in the decrease fuel direction, the pilot valve plunger is
raised above its centered position. When the trapped oil below the power piston
is released to the sump, the pump pressure forces the piston in the decrease
direction.
Compensation Cutoff
With large decreases in speed setting, or large load decrease, the power piston
moves to the “no fuel” position and blocks the compensation oil passage
between the power cylinder and needle valve to prevent normal equalization of
the compensation pressures. This holds the buffer piston off center and
increases the level of the pressure transmitted to the upper side of the plunger
compensation land. The increased pressure differential,- added to the effect of
the speeder spring, temporarily increases the governor speed setting. The
governor begins corrective action as soon as engine speed drops below the
temporary speed setting and starts the power piston upward to restore the fuel
supply in sufficient time to prevent a large underspeed transient. The above
action is referred to as “compensation cutoff”. When the upward movement of the
power piston again uncovers the compensation oil passage, normal
compensating action is resumed and engine speed is stabilized at the actual
speed setting of the governor.

Auxiliary Features and Devices
Introduction
A number of optional auxiliary features and devices are available for use, either
singly or in combination, with the PGA governors. These devices permit the
governor to perform other secondary functions such as limiting engine load,
controlling engine load to maintain a constant power output for each speed
setting, minimizing the tendency to overfuel when starting, permitting temporary
overloads, emergency shutdown, loss of lubricating oil pressure, etc. Auxiliary
equipment should be supplied as original equipment in the governor. It is
recommended that the customer contact Woodward if field installations are
desired.
Description
The solenoid operated shutdown assembly shown in Figure 7-2 can be
incorporated in almost all PG governors having speed setting arrangements
which use hydraulically operated speed setting servo assemblies (direct bellows
speed setting, current controlled speed setting, etc.). The solenoid is actuated by
switches in the protective circuit being monitored. When actuated, the shutdown
solenoid initiates a sequence of actions within the governor which results in the
fuel or steam valve linkage being moved to the shutdown or off position.
54 Woodward
Manual 36604 PGA Governor
Operation
Figure 7-3 shows the shutdown device which consists of a check valve and a
solenoid. The check valve is inserted in the hydraulic circuit between the speed
setting servo assembly and the speed setting pilot valve plunger and bushing.
When the ball in the check valve in unseated, oil1 above the speed setting servo
piston escapes to sump. This allows the servo piston spring to push the speed
setting servo piston up. When the servo piston moves up sufficiently, the piston
rod lifts the shutdown nuts and shutdown rod which is connected to the governor
pilot valve plunger. Therefore, lifting the shutdown rod lifts the pilot valve plunger.
With the pilot valve above center, oil is released through the control port to sump
and the governor power piston moves the fuel linkage in the decrease fuel
direction.
The check ball (Figure 7-3) seats against two valve seats. In units adjusted to
shutdown when the solenoid coil is energized, the spring holds the check ball
against the upper seat during normal operation. When the coil is energized, the
plunger rod moves down, unseating the check ball. In units adjusted to shut
down when the solenoid is de-energized, the plunger rod is adjusted to hold the
check ball on the lower seat during normal operation when the solenoid is
energized. When the, solenoid coil is de-energized, the spring pushes the check
ball upward, unseating it.

Adjustments
Refer to Figure 7-2 and adjust the ENERGIZE-TO-SHUTDOWN arrangement in
the following manner, Remove the locknut and the plunger stop plug; then
energize the solenoid. Turn the adjusting screw down (clockwise) until oil starts
to seep from the slot in the shutdown valve body. Turn the adjusting screw down
1-1/4 turns further. De-energize the solenoid; insert the plunger stop plug, and
screw the plug down until it touches the solenoid plunger. Back off the plunger
stop plug 2 turns, and lock it in place with the lock nut.

The overspeed test device shown in Figure 7-5 offers a means of temporarily
increasing the governor speed setting to check the operation of the engine
overspeed trip mechanism. It can be installed on any PG governor which has a
shutdown rod, including one already in service.
Return your governor to Woodward for addition of the overspeed trip test device.
Operation
To test the overspeed-trip mechanism remove the test device cap (753) and slide the
pin in the top of the cap (754) into the socket in the cam face. Move the cam slowly to
the overspeed position. The guide pin (743) is pushed against the shutdown rod, which
causes the control port in the pilot valve bushing to open. The governor power piston is
forced in the “increase fuel” direction, accelerating the engine to the speed level at
which the engine mounted overspeed trip shuts down the engine.
The load indicating switch is used to indicate tailrod position. These switches are
a function of tailrod or fuel rack position.
The load indicator switch is mechanically operated by set screw (825) attached to
the power piston tailrod. The load indicator switch is energized when the tailrod
moves past the preset position while increasing fuel to the engine. This switch
may be connected to an alarm signal or an indicator light. Refer to the engine
manufacturer’s instruction manual for the particular connections. if load is
increased past the preset position the switch is energized.
A load control indicator switch is also available to connect to the load control
linkage. This indicator switch is then a function of speed setting and fuel rack
position and not just tailrod position.
Adjustment
Refer to Figure 7-8 and the following.
1. Adjust screw (825) until its threads are centered in tailrod arm (823).
2. Position the tailrod to obtain the correct rack length per engine
specifications.
Woodward 61
PGA Governor Manual 36604
3. Adjust switch actuator (841) to just actuate the load regulator switch (828).
Secure switch actuator (841) with screw (832).
4. Adjust switch actuator (838) to actuate overload switch (828) when screw
(832) in switch actuator (841) has moved approximately an additional 1/4”
from actuating the load regulator switch. This setting is also per engine
specifications.
The Angle Type Fuel Limiter biases the limit curve as the manifold charging air
gauge pressure varies.
The normal lag of the turbo-supercharger speed to the engine speed makes it
possible during periods of acceleration with a large increase in load, to supply
more fuel to the engine than can be burned with the air available from the
supercharger. The resulting imbalance of fuel and air leads to poor combustion
and excessive smoke, and often retards the ability of the engine to return to
normal speed after a load change. The governor power piston is restricted in the
opening direction to limit engine fuel as a function of manifold charging air
pressure. This insures that sufficient air is maintained for proper combustion.
One end of the connecting beam is attached to the tailrod of the governor power
piston. The other end is positioned as a function of the cam position. The beam
passes under the shutdown block. Raising the beam sufficiently raises the
shutdown block, and with it, the shutdown rod. Lifting the shutdown rod lifts the
pilot valve plunger, since the shutdown rod is an extension of the governor pilot
valve plunger.
The governor power piston moves up, increasing fuel when the pilot valve
plunger is below its centered position. Fuel is increased only until the upward
movement of the power piston causes the connection beam to return the pilot
valve plunger to its centered position. The cam position establishes the height
the power piston may rise before the connecting beam lifts the pilot valve
plunger. Therefore, the cam position determines the maximum fuel allowed to the
engine at any instant.
Manifold charging air is brought into the bellows and tends to push the cone
valve off its seat. This force is opposed at the cone valve by the force of the
spring between the cone valve and sensor piston.
62 Woodward
Manual 36604 PGA Governor
The unrestricted flow of pressure oil applies constant pressure to the upper-side
of the sensor piston. A series of orifices restricts the flow of pressure oil to the
underside of the piston. Except while changes are occurring in the manifold
charging air pressure, the bellows force tending to push the cone valve up is
balanced or equaled by the spring force from the opposite direction. The cone
valve normally “floats” just off its seat and continually releases the oil admitted
through the orifice stack to sump. If the bellows force is greater than the
opposing spring force, the cone valve is forced upward, allowing oil to flow from
under the piston at an increased rate. The pressure oil above the piston forces it
down, compressing the spring until the spring force again equals the bellows
force. If the manifold charging air pressure is decreased, the bellows output force
is reduced, and the spring pushes the cone valve onto its seat. The oil pressure
under the piston moves the piston up and reduces the spring load on the cone
valve until the opposing forces are again equal.
The preload on the spring within the bellows assembly determines the charging
air pressure below which a constant maximum fuel limit is held (line RS in Figure
7-9). Preload is adjusted by means of the adjusting screw in the end of the
bellows case and is factory set. The contour of the cam determines the slope of
line ST (Figure 7-9).
Since the fuel limiter is effective at idle speed, the fuel limit must be set high
enough to give sufficient fuel for starting. See Figure 7-10 for exploded view of
the manifold gauge pressure fuel limiter.
A speed setting fuel limiter microswitch (1457) is used with a manifold pressure
fuel limiter. It indicates when the governor is limiting fuel as a function of either
engine speed or manifold charging pressure.
When boost beam (1416) reaches its limiting position (horizontal) it activates the
microswitch and in turn either an audio or visual alarm.
To adjust the microswitch loosen nut (1460) and position microswitch (1457) until
the correct set point is attained.

The speed setting servo piston positions the left end of limiter beam (1). As the
speed setting servo piston moves down, screw (6) forces beam (1) to pivot about
(7). The right hand end of beam (1) moves upward raising the lower limiter link
(2), thereby positioning the slot at the upper end of beam (2) relative to the slope
adjustment pivot locknut (7).
Since the right hand end of limiter beam (3) is attached to the power piston
tailrod its position is a function of fuel setting. The left end of beam (3) is
supported by the upper limiter link (4), the length of which is adjustable. As the
tailrod moves upward, it also moves the slope adjustment pivot (8) until it
reaches the top of the lower limiter link slot. Limiter beam (3) then pivots about
the end of the slot, lowering the left hand end of beam (3). The upper limiter link
(4) moves down, forcing the right end of limiter beam (5) downward. This results
in the left end of limiter beam (5) raising the shutdown rod which is connected to
the main pilot valve. Oil is dumped from under the main servo piston to drain.
Therefore, fuel is limited as a function of the speed setting piston position.
Woodward 67
PGA Governor Manual 36604
The constant fuel portion M-N of the curve is maintained when a gap exists
between the limit advance adjustment screw and the left end of limiter beam (1).
The slope of N-P is set by the position of the slope adjustment pivot (8 on Figure
7-12) in limiter beam (2, Figure 7-12).
Load Control
Introduction
A governor’s function is, primarily, to schedule fuel to the engine in sufficient
quantities to maintain a constant engine speed under varying load conditions. In
some marine governors driving controllable pitch propellers, a secondary
objective is to maintain or limit a definite horsepower output of the engine for
each specific speed setting of the governor.
In order to achieve this, the governor can be provided with a load control valve or
load control vane servomotor. The load control adjusts the load on the engine to
a predetermined value for each specific speed setting of the governor.
Operation
Refer to Figure 7-18. The load control pilot valve plunger is suspended from the
load control floating lever. The lever is connected to the power piston tailrod at
one end and to the speed setting piston rod at the other end. Any movement of
either or both pistons causes a corresponding movement of the plunger which is
housed within a non-rotating bushing.
Pressure oil is supplied to the plunger either externally from the propeller pitch
setting mechanism or from the governor oil pump through a pressure reducing
valve. The pilot valve has two control lands to give signals in the increase and
decrease load direction. Most propeller manufacturers use only the signal from
the upper land to decrease pitch, if the engine load exceeds a predetermined
maximum. On these governors the lower or increase pitch oil line is plugged.
68 Woodward
Manual 36604 PGA Governor
Since the load-control valve is mainly used to control pitch and load, governor
operation for this condition is described. From the schematic it can be seen that
there is a fixed and linear relationship keeping the load control valve centered. If
for a given speed setting the engine needs more fuel than allowed by the
adjustment of the load control valve the power piston will lift it up to uncover the
upper port. The propeller manufacturer uses the hydraulic pressure in the oil line
coming from the governor to decrease pitch, so that equilibrium is being restored
by decreasing load.
If the vane servo is used, it rotates a cam and operates a pneumatic transmitter
installed by the propeller manufacturer to send a modulated pneumatic signal to
the propeller pitch setting mechanism to decrease pitch. At the same time the
other side of the vane is drained and oil flows back to governor sump.
Adjustment
Adjust the load (pitch) control line in two ways, by the range screw (1111) and
the eccentric (1103). The range screw affects the slope of the curve. Moving the
point from where the load control valve is suspended toward the power piston
tailrod flattens the curve. This means that the governor allows higher load at
lower speeds. Readjusting the eccentric moves the curve up or down affecting
engine loading at all speeds. If the slope is changed it is usually necessary to
also readjust the eccentric.
Woodward 69
PGA Governor Manual 36604
Timing Valves
Timing valves (Figure 7-17) may be located internally in the governor for an
integrally mounted vane servo or they may be mounted on the external part of
the governor column for an externally mounted vane servo. In either case their
function is the same, to control the rate of movement of the vane servo in either
the increase or decrease direction. These valves are adjustable to increase or
decrease flow as required.

Operation
Pressured oil enters the fuel limiter through the inlet check valve. Oil is directed
to the upper side of the sensor piston and through the orifice pack restriction to
the underside of the sensor piston. The inlet check valve prevents siphoning of
the oil from the limiter housing during shutdown periods and omits the time lag to
refill the orifice pack and piston cylinder. This prevents the sensor piston from
going to maximum fuel position during start-up.
72 Woodward
Manual 36604 PGA Governor
The bleed valve regulates the rate of oil flow from the area under the sensor
piston to sump as a function of manifold air pressure. When the bleed valve
bypasses a greater flow of oil from this area than is admitted through the orifice
pack, the sensor piston moves downward. Conversely, reducing the bypass oil
flow to less than that admitted causes the sensor piston to rise. When the inflow
and outflow of oil are equal, the piston remains stationary.
Assume that the governor speed setting is advanced to a higher speed setting
and a higher manifold air pressure. The governor power piston moves upward
supplying the additional fuel required for engine acceleration. Since manifold air
pressure lags engine acceleration, the fuel limiter cam and bellcrank initially
remain stationary until manifold air pressure rises. As the governor power piston
moves upward increasing fuel, the fuel limit floating lever pivots about the upper
leg of the bellcrank and depresses the right end of the feedback lever on the
hydraulic amplifier. This pushes the amplifier pilot valve plunger below center,
allowing pressured oil to flow into the area under the amplifier piston, causing the
piston to rise. As the piston rises, it simultaneously lifts the left ends of both the
fuel limiter lever and the feedback lever. When the fuel limit lever contacts the
fuel limit nut on the shutdown bushing it begins lifting the shutdown rod to re-
center the governor pilot valve plunger. The upward movements of the fuel limit
and feedback levers continue until the left end of the feedback lever raises far
enough to re-center the amplifier pilot valve plunger and stop the flow of oil to the
amplifier piston. At this point, the fuel limit lever re-centers the governor pilot
valve plunger, stopping the upward movement of the governor power piston. This
limits the amount of fuel to provide a proper fuel/air ratio for efficient burning.
Although the governor flyweights are in an underspeed condition at this time, the
power piston remains stationary until manifold air pressure rises.
As engine speed and load increases, manifold air pressure begins to rise after a
short time lag. The increase in manifold air pressure produces a proportionate
increase in the sensing bellows force. The bellows force, now greater than the
restoring spring force, causes the bleed valve diaphragm to move further off its
seat. This allows a greater flow of oil to sump than is admitted through the orifice
pack. Governor oil pressure acting on the upper side of the sensor piston forces
the piston (and cam) downward and, in the process, further compresses the
restoring spring. The piston continues its downward movement until the net
increase in restoring spring force equals the net increase in bellows force. This
restores the bellows and bleed valve diaphragm to their original positions. At this
point, the outflow of oil is again equal to the inflow and movement of the piston is
halted.
As the sensor piston and cam move downward in response to a rise in manifold
air pressure, the bellcrank rotates in a cw direction. This allows the floating lever
pivot point, the left end of the lever, and in turn the hydraulic amplifier pilot valve
plunger to rise.
Woodward 73
PGA Governor Manual 36604
The loading spring under the pilot valve plunger maintains a positive contact
between the plunger, levers, bellcrank, and cam. When the pilot valve plunger
rises above center, the oil under the amplifier piston bleeds to sump through a
drilled passage in the center of the plunger. The passage in the plunger restricts
the rate of oil flow to sump and decreases the rate of movement of the amplifier
piston to minimize hunting. As the amplifier piston moves downward, the left end
of the fuel limit lever also moves downward. This lowers the shutdown rod which
in turn lowers the governor pilot valve plunger and increases engine fuel.
Fuel limiter not adjusted correctly. Fuel limiter must be adjusted on a test
stand.
74 Woodward
Manual 36604 PGA Governor
Conversely, a drop in manifold air pressure rotates the bellcrank in a ccw
direction. This lowers the fuel limit lever, depressing the pilot valve plunger, and
releases pressured oil to the underside of the amplifier piston. The shutdown rod
and governor pilot valve plunger are raised, releasing oil from the power piston
cylinder to sump and decreasing fuel to the engine. The left end of the fuel limit
floating lever pivots upwards, releasing the hydraulic amplifier pilot valve plunger
upward. As the control land of the pilot valve plunger opens the port from the
piston cylinder, oil is bled to sump through a hole in the pilot valve plunger shaft.
The shutdown rod is lowered, allowing the governor pilot valve plunger to re-
center.
Disassembly
The removal and disassembly procedure for the fuel limiter varies depending on
the optional features it is equipped with and the extent of maintenance required.
Complete removal and disassembly involves partial disassembly of the basic
governor and should be performed in the sequence given below as well as in the
order of reference numbers assigned to the exploded view (Figure 7-21). Discard
o-rings, gaskets, copper sealing washers, retaining rings, cotter pins, etc.,
removed during disassembly.
Omit those steps which do not apply to the particular fuel limiter
being serviced. Do not disassemble the unit any more than
absolutely necessary.
3. Remove fuel limit lever and attaching parts (1218 through 1221).
4. Remove fuel limit floating lever and attaching parts (1222, 1223 and 1224).
Hold pivot (1225) stationary while removing lever and then remove pivot
together with adjusting screw (1226). Remove feedback lever (1227).
5. Disconnect coupling nut (1228) and then back fitting (1231) out of governor
column far enough to clear end of connecting tube from sensor bellows
(1267). Do not bend or place any strain on tube during removal of the
sensor assembly.
6. Remove screws (1232 and 1233) and washers (1234). Lift sensor assembly
(1235 through 1280) off governor column. Remove o-ring (1282) from seat
in governor column.
Cleaning
Immerse all parts in solvent and wash ultrasonically or by agitation. Use a
nonmetallic brush or jet of compressed air to clean slots and holes. Dry parts
after cleaning with a jet of clean, dry air.
Woodward 75
PGA Governor Manual 36604
Flush orifice pack with a pressurized stream of filtered solvent. Disassemble
orifice pack for more thorough cleaning if clogging or sludge buildup is evident.
Apply a light film of lubricating oil to all finely machined surfaces. Store parts in
dust-free, moisture-proof containers until reassembled.
Inspection
Visually inspect all parts for damage or wear. Pay particular attention to the
following.
3. All threaded areas, apertures and passages must be free of foreign matter.
4. All linkages must be free of corrosion and must move freely without
excessive play.
5. Inspect sensor piston (1251, Figure 7-21) amplifier piston (1246) and
amplifier pilot valve plunger (1244) for scuffing, scoring, or wear. If scuffing
or scoring is evident, inspect the respective piston or plunger bores for
similar damage. Replace all parts which are scuffed or scored. Wear on
highly polished areas is generally acceptable if less than one-third the length
of the piston or plunger land is affected. If excessive wear is suspected,
check the worn area for an out-of-round condition. Replace the pistons if the
worn area is more than 0.001 inch out-of-round. Replace the plunger if the
worn areas on the lands are more than 0.005 inch out-of-round.
8. Bleed valve diaphragms (1254) must be flat within 0.040 inch (1.02 mm).
Any damage such as nicks, creases or other deformities, scratches in
excess of 0.001 inch (0.03 mm) in depth, etc., in necked area of diaphragm
center section is cause for replacement of the part.
10. Check needle bearing (1242) for freedom of rotation. Replace bearing if
there is any detectable roughness.
76 Woodward
Manual 36604 PGA Governor
Repair or Replacement
Limit repair of parts to removal of minor nicks, burrs or corrosion from mating
surfaces. Polish slightly corroded areas in mating surfaces using a fine (600 grit)
abrasive cloth or paper and oil. Repair or rework to any other extent is impractical
and the part should be replaced.
Lubrication
Lubricate metal parts liberally with lubricating oil at time of reassembly. Lubricate
O-rings with petrolatum before installation.
Reassembly
Use a dust-free work area for reassembly. Reassemble and install the fuel limiter
and load control override linkage in reverse order of the disassembly instructions.
Pay particular attention to the following:
1. Obtain new O-rings, gaskets, sealing washers, retaining rings, cotter pins,
etc., to replace those removed during disassembly.
2. Install retaining rings with sharp edge in the direction of the applied force.
3. If orifice pack was disassembled for any reason, alternately install gaskets
(1262), and orifice plates (1263). Be sure to install a gasket between orifice
plate and washer at each end of stack. Plates must be alternated so
adjacent orifice holes are diametrically opposite.

Additional Accessories
Introduction
A number of other optional auxiliary features and devices are available for use,
either singly or in combination, with the PGA governors. These devices permit
the governor to perform other secondary functions such as limiting engine load,
controlling engine load to maintain a constant power output for each speed
setting, minimizing the tendency to overfuel when starting, permitting temporary
overloads, emergency shutdown in the event of ancillary equipment failure or
loss of lubricating oil pressure, etc. Auxiliary equipment should be supplied as
original equipment in the governor. It is recommended that the customer contact
Woodward Governor Company if field installations are desired.
Booster Servomotor
The booster servomotor is used in conjunction with the governor to assist the
prime mover in starting quickly. This device supplies oil under pressure to the
governor at the instant starting air is supplied to the prime mover and enables the
governor to move the linkage to the fuel-on position immediately. See manual
36684.
Shutdown Devices
Various devices can be incorporated in the governor to shutdown the prime
mover or provide an alarm signal in the event of equipment failure. These
devices are used in a variety of applications including installations where
automatic safety devices are a necessity. Shutdown devices are available in the
following arrangements to suit the particular operating conditions:
84 Woodward
Manual 36604 PGA Governor
Lubricating Oil Pressure Failure Shutdown
This is an automatic shutdown device which protects the prime mover in the
event of a partial or complete failure of the prime mover lubricating oil system. It
monitors lubricating oil pressure and is so designed that the shutdown pressure
level becomes progressively higher as prime mover speed increases. This allows
a relatively low minimum oil pressure level for safe operation at idle speed while
requiring increasingly higher levels for safe operation at higher speeds. Some of
these devices also include a capability to monitor prime mover oil pump inlet
pressure and effect shutdown if excessive vacuum (suction) occurs. A time delay
feature (adjustable within a range of 15–40 seconds) allows the prime mover to
be started without lubricating oil pressure yet prevents prolonged operation if a
safe pressure level is not reached within the preset time. At operating speeds
above idle, the time delay is normally bypassed so that shutdown is immediate.
See manual 36652.
Transfer Valve
A transfer valve is available for use with the pneumatic load balance system. It
facilitates the remote control of the transfer functions for the pneumatic load
balance system. See manual 36686.

Product Support and Service Options
OEM or Packager Support: Many Woodward controls and control devices are
installed into the equipment system and programmed by an Original Equipment
Manufacturer (OEM) or Equipment Packager at their factory. In some cases, the
programming is password-protected by the OEM or packager, and they are the best
source for product service and support. Warranty service for Woodward products
shipped with an equipment system should also be handled through the OEM or
Packager. Please review your equipment system documentation for details.

Replacement/Exchange: Replacement/Exchange is a premium program
designed for the user who is in need of immediate service. It allows you to
request and receive a like-new replacement unit in minimum time (usually within
24 hours of the request), providing a suitable unit is available at the time of the
request, thereby minimizing costly downtime.
This option allows you to call your Full-Service Distributor in the event of an
unexpected outage, or in advance of a scheduled outage, to request a
replacement control unit. If the unit is available at the time of the call, it can
usually be shipped out within 24 hours. You replace your field control unit with
the like-new replacement and return the field unit to the Full-Service Distributor.
Flat Rate Repair: Flat Rate Repair is available for many of the standard
mechanical products and some of the electronic products in the field. This
program offers you repair service for your products with the advantage of
knowing in advance what the cost will be.
Flat Rate Remanufacture: Flat Rate Remanufacture is very similar to the Flat
Rate Repair option, with the exception that the unit will be returned to you in “like-
new” condition. This option is applicable to mechanical products only.
When shipping the item(s), attach a tag with the following information:
return number;
name and location where the control is installed;
name and phone number of contact person;
complete Woodward part number(s) and serial number(s);
description of the problem;
instructions describing the desired type of repair.
Packing a Control
Use the following materials when returning a complete control:
protective caps on any connectors;
antistatic protective bags on all electronic modules;
packing materials that will not damage the surface of the unit;
at least 100 mm (4 inches) of tightly packed, industry-approved packing material;
a packing carton with double walls;
a strong tape around the outside of the carton for increased strength.
Replacement Parts
When ordering replacement parts for controls, include the following information:
the part number(s) (XXXX-XXXX) that is on the enclosure nameplate;
the unit serial number, which is also on the nameplate.

4.1 Overview
Complete view
Detailed view
The version of the oil mist ventilation pipe depends on the motor
type. An example version is shown here.
The oil mist ventilation pipe is a part of the device and conveys the oil mist to
the on-site ventilation system.
The oil mist ventilation pipe is made of steel.
Inside the oil mist ventilation pipe are the lenses of the optical measuring
track (Fig. 12/1, 3; Chapter 4.3.2 “Optical measuring track” on page 40)
and the hose for the pressure measurement (Fig. 12/2).
The housing ( Chapter 4.3.5 “Housing” on page 41) is located on the oil mist
ventilation pipe.
The base plate with damping system connects the housing ( Chapter 4.3.5
“Housing” on page 41) to the oil mist ventilation pipe ( Chapter 4.3.1 “Oil
mist ventilation pipe” on page 39).
The damping system of the base plate consists of springs (Fig. 15/1), which
are attached above and below.
The damping system reduces vibrations arising from the motor.
Also on the base plate (Fig. 15/2) is a weight (Fig. 15/3), which is used to
minimise or eliminate vibration frequencies.
4.3.5 Housing
The [Oil mist test] button is located on the left-hand side of the housing.
This button is used to initiate the oil mist test ( Chapter 10.3.2 “Performing
the oil mist test manually” on page 87). After 8 seconds, the LED ring lights up
red and the test starts.
The test will not start if the button is pressed for less than 8 or
more than 12 seconds.
On the web interface, maintenance staff can view warnings and error mes-
sages, carry out maintenance work, set parameters and change the date.
The manufacturer can also carry out password-protected settings.

*The largest protected volume Vmax which may be protected by one explosion relief valve
has to be clarified together with the manufacturer.
HOERBIGER explosion relief valves type EVO are components for diesel, dual
fuel and gas engines which necessarily require a connection to the engine to
describe a functional machine. Thus the instructions of the engine manufacturers
are of prior validity to the operator.
The selection of the venting area has to be done according to existing standards
and guidelines. It is not allowed to change one of the parameters that are part of
the calculation of the venting area. This means as soon as anything changes for
example the KG value, the sizing of the venting area has to be checked against all
design limits.
4. Operation
Explosion relief valves type EVO protect personnel and equipment in the event of an oil mist- or
gas explosion in crankcases of diesel, dual fuel and gas engines. In this document diesel, dual
fuel and gas engines are called “machine”.
In case of an explosion the valve plate lifts up and relieves the overpressure through the
integrated flame arrester. Therefore no flame transmission to the outside of the valve must be
considered. Immediately after the pressure vent, the valve plate closes and prevents a fresh air
inrush. Hence secondary explosions are avoided.
Since the valve closes immediately after the pressure vent, no gas will be released to the
environment. For that reason no immediate shutdown of the engine is required.
The below mentioned and all relevant instructions given by the engine manufacturer have to be
obeyed.
For reasons of the remaining heat, the explosion relief valve must not be touched
after an explosion – Danger of severe injury!
After an explosion the relief valve has to be exchanged at the next scheduled
IACS maintenance shutdown. Furthermore the instructions of the engine manufacturer
have to be observed.
The shear nut (position 10) must not be removed. All work to disassemble the
valve is forbidden. HOERBIGER’s warranty and liability becomes invalid
immediately in case of an opened seal.
Sharp edges and the weight of the valve may lead to injuries of personnel. Due to
improper handling the valve might drop and hurt personnel.
The lamellas of the flame arrester must not be painted, coated or manipulated in
any other way. All components of the flame arrester must not be damaged during
work.
The valve always has to be mounted on the outside surface of the machine /
protected volume. Mounting the valve in wrong way inside of the protected
volume leads to a non-fulfilment of its safety function!
During fitting the valve to the machine the information stated in the assembly
drawing must be observed. The required number of bolts has to be used, the
assembly torque is specified in the assembly drawing. A suitable gasket has to be
used in between the explosion relief valve and the counter flange of the machine.
It has to be observed that there is enough space for accessing the valves, to
enable a visual check of the condition at any time.
The diameter of the counter hole and syphon shall be at least the diameter of the
oil return hole (10mm). The explosion relief valve has to be mounted with the leak
oil return hole in “six o’clock” position to maintain the backflow of the leaking oil.
The siphon (U-shaped piece of pipe) is welded to the counter flange (see pictures
below). As an alternative standard hydraulic fittings can be used to mount a piece
of pipe to the counter flange.
Syphon
Individuals, who have to stay due to operational reasons around the defined
hazardous area, have to be instructed about the predominant hazards.

6. Inspection
6.1 Regular inspection
For a safe operation of the explosion relief valve a regular inspection (acc. to chapter 6.3) is
mandatory, depending on the operating condition, but at least 1 time a year.
After an explosion the relief valve has to be exchanged at the next scheduled
IACS maintenance shutdown. Furthermore the instructions of the engine manufacturer
have to be observed.
- Visual inspection of the overall condition of the valve (no damage or corrosion)
- Inspection of the flame arrester according to chapter 6.3.1.
- Inspection of the valve sealing according to chapter 6.3.2.
If no deviations are detected, the explosion relief valve can continue the operation.
The following pictures demonstrate a flame arrester in proper condition and in bad
condition as well:
Additionally the flame arrester has to be checked against extensive contamination and
deposits, which might influence the pressure relief function.
When a flash light is placed on one side of the flame arrester, the light shine must be
visible at the opposite side, to make sure that the flame arrester is not clogged by dirt
accumulations.
flash light
If abnormal gaps on the flame arrester can be observed, the valve has to be
replaced.
7. Maintenance
The explosion relief valve is almost maintenance free, nevertheless to guarantee a proper valve
function during the lifetime, we recommend to replace the sealing ring of the explosion relief
valve after 16,000 hours in operation.
Additionally following remarks have to be obtained for a safe explosion relief valve operation:
In case that dirt is collected on the flame arrester, it has to be cleaned with
compressed air or respectively with a non-corrosive and inflammable substance
(degreaser) at standstill of the machine.
The internal O-ring might lose the sealing function through ageing or chemical
attacks. In case of gas/oil leakage the O-ring has to be replaced during the next
scheduled shutdown, either by HOERBIGER or by trained stuff according
procedure described in chapter 7.1.
All instructions of engine–manufacturers and all advices for secure operating and
mounting of explosion relief valves given in the previous chapters are valid.
2. Push the valve plate open against the spring force by using adequate tool (i.e. hydraulic
press, drilling machine etc.). Before you reach into the valve with your hands it is mandatory
to add protection against sudden reclosing (i.e. appropriate piece of wood or similar)
The pictures above are showing how to push the valve plate open by using a drilling machine
with a simple rod (the machine must be not switched on). Please make sure that the coating of
the valve plate won`t be damaged.
3. Clean the flame arrester by blowing air from the inside to the outside of the flame arrester.
4. Remove the old O-ring by using an adequate tool (i.e. screwdriver) and clean the O-ring
groove.
5. Before mounting the new O-ring apply glue to the O-ring groove. Please make sure that the
glue is spread uniformly in the O-ring groove.
6. Insert the O-ring and clean the O-ring before closing the valve plate.
Take care when using cleaning agents or glue! Please follow the manufacturer’s
safety instructions carefully.
NOTE:
8. Marking
The marking of the type plate is as following:
9. Table of changes
The operational manual is part of the documentation for the classification society
IACS to obtain the approvals according IACS Rules M66. HOERBIGER has to report to
the classification society if there are any changes.
