WOODWARD PEAK200-HVAC 8200-1501 Control Module

Ever encountered HVAC systems struggling with temperature fluctuations in a manufacturing plant? The WOODWARD PEAK200-HVAC 8200-1501 was built precisely for this kind of challenge. This control module acts as the brain for complex HVAC setups, ensuring stable climate conditions in environments where precision matters – think pharmaceutical storage facilities or data centers.

Installed in a recent hospital HVAC retrofit, this module handled simultaneous temperature and humidity control across 12 zones. The 8200 series particularly shines in environments requiring Modbus RTU communication – we’ve paired it with Siemens S7-1200 PLCs in food processing plants for real-time climate monitoring. Other common applications include:

• Commercial building automation systems
• Industrial process cooling units
• Pharmaceutical clean room environments

The module’s real strength lies in its field-proven reliability. The PID control algorithms, adjustable up to 10kHz output frequency, maintain ±0.5% accuracy even during voltage fluctuations between 20-30Vdc. The aluminum housing with IP66 protection resists corrosion in coastal installations where salt air would defeat lesser controllers.

Field technicians appreciate the 12-key interface for on-site adjustments – no need for laptop configuration during emergency adjustments. The dual communication ports (Modbus + CANopen) allowed one customer to integrate legacy BMS systems with new VFDs without protocol conversion gateways, saving $15k in integration costs.
