    Ideally, the control should be mounted flush to the metal side of a control cabinet close to the engine. The location should provide protection from high-voltage or high-current devices, or devices which produce electromagnetic interference. Do not install the control box directly on the engine. Woodward...
  • Page 13: Mounting The Flo-Tech Actuator/Throttle Body

    Connectors The DMMF interfaces to the engine and vehicle systems through two 23-pin AMP connectors. The Woodward part numbers for these parts as well as the actuator connector part number(s) are located on the plant wiring diagram (Figure 1-5). The part numbers also list the pins required for the 23-pin DMMF connector.

See Woodward application note 50532, Interference Control in Electronic Governing Systems, for more information.
  • Page 15: Chapter 3. Description Of Operation

    The Flo-Tech 60 requires no actuators or linkage. The Flo-Tech 60 will accept an 8–32 Vdc (12/24 Vdc nominal) input power supply and a positioning command signal. The driver will produce an output signal to indicate throttle position. Woodward...
  • Page 16: Return Spring

    Digital Min/Max Flo-Tech Control Manual 04168 The Flo-Tech 60 is configured to work with a command signal of 0–5 Vdc. Woodward part numbers for the DMMF Flo-Tech are: • 8235-113—Jade • 8235-123—Bravo Return Spring The Flo-Tech actuator has an internal return spring designed to move the actuator toward minimum fuel in case the electronic control should fail.
