LOAD SHARING & SPEED CONTROL MODULE
WOODWARD
Refurbished
The Woodward 9907-014 2301A Speed Control is a highly reliable electronic governor and engine speed control unit designed for diesel engines, gas engines, steam turbines, and generator applications. It is widely used in marine propulsion systems, marine auxiliary engines, generator sets, offshore power systems, and industrial power generation facilities.
The 2301A series has earned a strong reputation throughout the marine and power generation industries due to its precise speed regulation, load sharing capability, isochronous control mode, and droop control operation. It helps maintain stable engine speed during varying load conditions and supports synchronized operation of multiple generators running in parallel.
For vessel operators and marine engineers, reliable engine speed control is essential for safe navigation, stable electrical power generation, fuel efficiency, and machinery protection. The Woodward 2301A provides these functions through a robust and proven electronic governor platform.
SM MARINE SERVICE™ supplies New, Used, and Reconditioned Woodward 2301A Speed Control units with worldwide delivery and technical support.
Manufacturer: Woodward
Model: 2301A Speed Control
Part Number: 9907-014
Product Type: Electronic Speed Governor Controller

The Woodward 2301A is designed to maintain engine speed stability and load sharing performance in demanding applications. The controller receives speed feedback from a magnetic pickup sensor and regulates actuator output to maintain the desired engine speed. It can operate in single-engine installations or multi-generator parallel systems.
The controller is compatible with various Woodward actuators and synchronizing systems and has become one of the most widely installed governor controllers in marine generator applications worldwide.
The 2301A continuously monitors engine speed and adjusts actuator output to maintain stable operation even during sudden load changes. This improves generator frequency stability and engine performance.
One of the major advantages of the 2301A is its ability to provide isochronous load sharing between multiple generators. This ensures balanced power distribution and stable operation during parallel generator running.
The controller can operate in droop mode for applications requiring load-dependent speed regulation, making it suitable for generator synchronization and utility grid applications.
The unit supports multiple selectable speed sensing frequency ranges, allowing it to be adapted to different engine and turbine configurations.
Engineers can easily adjust parameters such as:
These adjustments allow fine-tuning of engine response and stability.
The 2301A is designed to withstand vibration, electrical noise, humidity, and harsh operating conditions commonly found in marine engine rooms and offshore installations.
