The ESS panel is designed to be mounted either to the front auxiliary rack of the engine or for remote mounting. It is recommended that shock mounts always be used regardless of mounting location.

NOTE: Refer to Illustrations 1 and 2 for installation dimensions.

Customer Interface Connections

This system provides a number of connections to customer supplied equipment. A fitting for installation of conduit is provided on the lower right side of the ESS panel to accommodate wiring to customer equipment. This conduit location is the most convenient for access to the customer interface terminal strip.

24 Volt Power Supply Wiring and Requirements

The wiring from the power source to the ESS panel must be a minimum of 8 AWG. Fault protection should be provided to this wiring per appropriate wiring codes.

The voltage drop from batteries to the ESS panel must not exceed .5 volts (30 amps) with a minimum 8 AWG.

The ESS is designed to operate on a 24 VDC supply. If the engine is not equipped with a battery and alternator, a source of clean 24 VDC power is required to operate the system. This can be provided with a battery and battery charger.

The system will draw a peak current requirement of 35 amps and an average current draw of approximately 12 amps. The connections to provide power are on the customer terminal strip of the ESS panel. Battery POS (+) should be connected to Terminal 351; Battery NEG (-) to Terminal 353.

Customer Interface Wiring

The ESS provides a terminal strip to interface to customer supplied additional modules. The following is a brief description of the signals provided:

Battery Power

Battery POS (+) (Unfused) (Terminal 351)

Terminal 351 is designed to be used to provide a Battery POS (+) connection between a remotely provided battery source and the system.

The minimum wire gauge for this connection is 8 AWG.

Battery POS (+) (Fused) (Terminal 352)

Terminal 352 may be used to provide fused Battery POS (+) connections for remote relays controlled by the ESS:

* Remote throttle controllers,
* Serial interface convertors, or
* Provide + 24 VDC connections for remote relays controlled by the ESS.

The maximum current capacity is 5 amps.

Battery NEG (-) (Terminal 353)

Terminal 353 is designed to be used to provide a Battery NEG (-) connection between a remotely provided battery source and the system.

The minimum wire gauge for this connection is 8 AWG.

Battery NEG (-) (Terminal 354)

Terminal 354 is designed to be a Battery NEG (-) connection for remote devices or remote reference.

Linear Control Interface

+ 20 Supply (Terminal 359)

Terminal 359 provides 20 VDC protected power for remote mounted analog to Pulse Width Modulated (PWM) modules (6V-3291 Electronic Control Groups).

External Fuel Quality (Terminal 361)

The External Fuel Quality input can be used to provide an external fuel quality indication to the Engine Control System. The External Fuel Quality input can be used in conjunction with an analog to PWM module in order to provide the appropriate signal to the system.

External Throttle (Terminal 362)

The External Throttle input can be used to provide an external desired engine speed indication to the Engine Control System.

The External Throttle input is compatible with PWM equipped Woodward load sharing modules.

The External Throttle input can also be used in conjunction with an analog to PWM module in order to provide the appropriate signal to the system.

REF (-) (Terminal 363)

Terminal 363 provides a ground for externally mounted analog to PWM modules, and/or serves as the ground for the PWM signal provided by the Woodward load share modules.

System Status Outputs

Annunciator (Terminal 365)

The Annunciator output interfaces to the optional alarm module.

Engine Failure (Terminals 367, 368)

Terminals 367 and 368 provide a semi-isolated, normally open contact indicating a failure has occurred which has shut down the engine. Terminals 367 and 368 respond to failure inputs from the Detonation Sensing Timing (DST), Electronic Control Module (ECM), or Status Control Module (SCM).

Start/Run (Terminal 372)

The Start/Run output provides approximate battery voltage whenever:

* Sufficient prelube pressure is available to start the engine, the Driven Equipment Ready input indicates that the driven equipment is ready for START, and no faults or inhibits are present to prevent engine START.

Relays connected to the Start/Run terminal must be provided with a flyback diode.

CTR (Terminals 374, 375)

Terminals 374 and 375 provide a semi-isolated, open contact to indicate that crank termination speed has been achieved.

The CTR contact remains closed from crank termination speed until the engine is stopped, plus two seconds.

Terminal 375 should be connected to a POS (+) supply.

Terminal 374 should be used for connection to the load.

Run Relay (Terminals 381, 382)

Terminals 381 and 382 provide a semi-isolated open contact to indicate that the engine is running.

The Run Relay contact remains closed from 50 rpm until the start of engine shutdown.

Terminal 381 should be connected to a POS (+) supply.

Terminal 382 should be used for connection to the load.

ESS Fault (Terminal 360)

The ESS Fault output provides approximate battery voltage whenever the Timing Control or ECM portion of the ESS system has caused an engine shutdown.

Relays connected to the ESS Fault terminal must be provided with a flyback diode.

Maximum permissible output current draw from the ESS Fault terminal is 150 mA.

Horn Driver (Terminal 356)

The Horn Driver output provides approximate battery voltage whenever a shutdown or alarm condition is present.

Relays connected to the Horn Driver terminal must be provided with a flyback diode.

Prelube Active (Terminal 383). The Prelube Active terminal outputs 24 V anytime the Post Lube Relay (PLR) contacts are closed. When HOT the prelube pump should be powered.

Switch Reference Ground (Terminal 376). The Switch Reference Ground terminal is a common ground reference for the customer connection.

Control Switch Input Connections

Emergency Stop (Terminal 355)

Terminal 355 is provided to allow remote mounting of an Emergency Stop switch.

The Emergency Stop input functions identically to the Emergency Stop switch on the ESS panel (short to ground to shutdown).

Customer Stop (Terminal 366)

The Customer Stop terminal is provided for engine shutdown due to remote equipment faults. (Short to ground to shutdown).

The Customer Stop input should not be used if the Engine Status Control has been programmed with a COOLDOWN time. The driven equipment will not initiate a shutdown if the driven equipment develops a fault during COOLDOWN. Shorting the Customer Stop terminal to ground during operation (not COOLDOWN) initiates an Engine Status Control shutdown that requires a manual reset in order to restart the engine. The auxiliary shutdown light comes on.

In general, the preferred shutdown input for external equipment should be the Driven Equipment Ready input.

Generator Parallel (Terminal 369)

The Generator Parallel input [Battery NEG (-)] is used with generator-set engines to indicate to the control system that the generator is paralleled with a utility. This affects the control characteristics of the engine.

The Generator Parallel input has no effect in industrial applications.

Prelube Initiate (Terminal 371)

In systems NOT equipped with continuous prelube, or with intermittent prelube backup to continuous prelube, the system will normally automatically prelube the engine in response to an engine start request.

However, engine start will be delayed until prelube is complete.

The Prelube Initiate input is provided in order to allow remote prelube of the engine in advance of engine start.

In systems equipped with continuous prelube, the Prelube Initiate input has no effect.

If the Mode Control switch is in any position other than OFF/RESET or the ESS system is energized (displays are on), connecting the Prelube Initiate input to Switch Reference Ground (Terminal 376) will cause the engine prelube system to turn ON.

If the Mode Control switch is in OFF/RESET and the system is not energized, connecting the Prelube Initiate input to Switch Reference Ground (Terminal 376) will cause no action until the Mode Control switch is moved from the OFF/RESET position.

Start Initiate (Terminal 373)

If the Mode Control switch is in the AUTO position, connecting the Start Initiate input to Switch Reference Ground (Terminal 376) will cause the engine to prelube and, if the Driven Equipment Ready input indicates that the driven equipment is ready, start the engine.

In all other switch positions the Start Initiate input has no effect.

Driven Equipment Ready (Terminal 384)

The Driven Equipment Ready input is provided to prevent engine START until the driven equipment is ready and to shutdown the engine if the driven equipment is no longer ready.

Connecting the Driven Equipment Ready input to Switch Reference Ground (Terminal 376) will allow the ESS to start the engine if all other starting conditions are met. An open circuit initiates an ESS shutdown that does not require a manual reset in order to restart.

IDLE/RATED Control (Terminal 364)

The IDLE/RATED Control input is provided to allow a means to force the engine speed to remain at low idle.

Connecting the IDLE/RATED Control terminal to Switch Reference Ground (Terminal 376) permits the engine to accelerate from low idle to high idle once sufficient oil pressure is attained.

Leaving the IDLE/RATED Control terminal open will inhibit the engine from accelerating above low idle.

Customer Mode Control Switch Contacts

The following contacts are provided from an additional pole on the Mode Control switch.

Switch Common (Terminal 389):

* The Switch Common terminal is connected to the common of an isolated pole of the Mode Control switch.

OFF/RESET (Terminal 385):

* The OFF/RESET terminal is connected to the common when the Mode Control switch is in the OFF/RESET position.

START (Terminal 386):

* The START terminal is connected to the common when the Mode Control switch is in the START position.

STOP (Terminal 387):

* The STOP terminal is connected to the common when the Mode Control switch is in the STOP position.

AUTO (Terminal 388):

* The AUTO terminal is connected to the common when the Mode Control switch is in the AUTO position.

Serial Communication (Terminals 357, 358)

The Serial Communication terminals provide serial communications for remote monitoring via a Customer Communications Module.

NOTE: The Serial Communications port is NOT compatible with RS232 serial communications.
