GENERAL INFORMATION
1. SCOPE. This manual provides information for the installation, calibration, operation, and maintenance of the DYNA
system. One +1, +2, +4 or + 6 actuator and one electronic
control box comprise the DYNA system.

The electronic control box receives electrical input signals from

both the magnetic speed sensor and the reference speed pot.
These signals are processed and compared, resulting in an
error signal that is amplified and sent to the actuator in a
proportional, integral and derivative summation. When the
actuator receives the desired output shaft electrical signal, the
output shaft rotates and a feedback is sent back and compared
to the desired signal and any difference is transmitted to the
power amplifier which sends corrective action to the output
shaft position.

This system is manufactured by the Power Controls Division of

the Barber-Colman Company which is headquartered at 1354
Clifford Avenue, P.O. Box 2940, Loves Park, Illinois 611322940
2. INTRODUCTION. This manual describes the basic operation and installation of the DYNA plus 1, plus 2, plus 4, and plus
6 all-electric governor systems. The basic governor assembly
consists of an actuator and controller. The units are electrically
coupled together to make a complete governor system offering
optimum engine control.

4. JUNCTION BOX. An optional junction box can be used to

house the reference speed potentiometer and the power
switch. It is mounted so that it can be conveniently connected
to the electronic control box, power source, and magnetic
speed sensor.
5. MAGNETIC SPEED SENSOR. The magnetic speed sensor
is mounted in a convenient location, i.e.: flywheel housing,
such as to generate electrical pulses proportional to speed by
sensing magnetic material, i.e.: teeth on the engine ring gear
passing the sensor.

A typical system would also have an on-off switch, a magnetic

pickup and a remote speed potentiometer. The magnetic
pickup detects engine speed (RPM) from gear teeth on the
prime mover. This signal along with the remote speed signal
and the D C power are brought into the controller for processing
to allow for optimum engine control.
No special mounting requirements are needed for the DYNA
actuator mounted on the engine and it can be located at any
convenient position since there are no requirements for a
mechanical drive or oil connections.

6. ACTUATORS. The actuators are electrically connected to

the electronic control box and their mechanical output is
connected to the engines fuel system. Actuators are electrically powered and have output work capacities of 1, 2, 4, and
6 ft-Ibs. The actuators convert an electrical input to an angular
mechanical output at the output shaft which has a maximum
rotation of 45.

3. ELECTRONIC CONTROL BOX. The electronic control box

is a rugged container which houses the electrical components
used in controlling the actuator output and finally the engine.
The components and container are designed to withstand 20
Gs of mechanical vibration through 500 Hz. This control box is
mounted directly on the actuator and is electrically connected
to the actuator through a 5 pin connector

INSTALLATION INFORMATION
1. ACTUATOR AND ELECTRONIC ASSEMBLY. The actuator and electronic assembly can be installed in any position by
using a simple steel bracket or mounting pad. Be sure that the
mechanical linkage has sufficient physical clearance to freely
move from minimum to maximum fuel. The length of this
linkage rod connecting the actuator output shaft to the engine
fuel control should not be excessively long. Use 4" to 10" except
in special cases.

Manually rotate the ring gear until a tooth face is directly in the
center of the tapped hole. Gently turn the magnetic pickup
clockwise into the hole until it bottoms on the tooth, and back
off 1/4 turn. Tighten the jam nut firmly.

NOTE
The plus 4 actuators have through output shafts that
rotate CW or CCW to increase fuel. The direction of
rotation is determined when the output shaft is pointed
toward the observer. The minimum fuel position is
obtained when power is not applied to the actuator coil.
2. MOUNTING THE ACTUATOR AND LINKAGE. Adjust the
linkage rod to allow at least 40 rotation of the actuator output
shaft for full travel of the fuel control. Use lock nuts on the
linkage rod. See Figure 1 for typical linkage arrangements.

4. INSTALLATION AND WIRING. Barber-Colman has installation kits available for many engines.These include the mounting bracket and wiring harness (Consult the Barber-Colman
DYNA distributor or dealer for installation kit information.)
See the typical wiring for +1, +2, +4, or +6 DYNA governor
systems shown on pages 10 through 15 of this manual
Important things to follow when making an installation.
a. Do not connect the control box connector to the wiring until
proper voltage and polarity have been established.
b. Wiring.

Figure 1. Typical Non-Linear Linkage Arramgements

(1) Use the recommended wiring cables shown in this

manual (see pages 10 through 15 ).

3. INSTALLATION OF SPEED SENSOR (MAGNETIC

PICKUP). Remove the inspection cover over the ring gear
teeth. The teeth should be free of burrs, excessive grease or
dirt.

(2) Make sure the wire insulation will withstand the temperatures around the engine.

The magnetic pickup should not be installed in inspection

covers. Inspect the ring gear housing and pick a location where
a 37/64" hole can be drilled such that the ring gear teeth will
pass in front of the pickup pole face. After the 37/ 64" hole is
drilled, use a 5/8-18 starting tap to cut threads for the magnetic
pickup, then run a bottom tap through the hole.

(4) Make sure the end of shield not used is taped to

prevent touching other components

(3) Twist power leads.

c. Ground Shield Installation Precautions

(1 ) Engines with positive ground systems. With positive
ground systems the shield lead on the two- and threelead shielded cables must not be allowed to touch the
engine frame or any part of the power system which
is at the same potential as the engine frame. Allowing
the shield lead to touch any of these exposed parts
will cause a short across the D-C supply and could
damage the control.

NOTE
The hole should be drilled as nearly perpendicular as
possible over the ring gear teeth, as illustrated in
Figure 2
3

(2) Engines with negative ground systems. With negative ground systems the shield of the two- and threelead shielded cables must not touch the engine frame.
Letting the shield touch the engine frame or associated parts will not damage the control, but it may
generate undesirable electrical signals that may cause
unstable engine performance.

c. Place the power switch in the OFF position and

connect the connector to the control box.

d. Observe the proper power supply polarity. The proper

polarity to Pins A and C of the controller connector
must be observed or the unit will not operate. Pin A
must be connected to the positive terminal and Pin C
to the negative terminal of the battery or power supply.

f. Place the power switch in the ON position. The

actuator should move to the full fuel position

d. Remove top cover from control box.

e. Place a jumper between TP1 and TP2 (this overrides
the failsafe feature).

g. Remove jumper between TP1 and TP2. (Actuator must

return to minimum fuel position.)

5. CHECKING OUT WIRING INSTALLATION.

h. Engine is ready to start.

a. After the wiring is mounted on the engine, connect the

power wires; the red wire to the positive terminal, and
the black wire to the negative terminal. (Do not connect
power wiring to the engine frame connect directly to
the battery terminals.)
b. A voltmeter must be used at this time to check voltage
at the electronic control box connector. Turn the power
switch ON at the junction box. Connect the meter
leads to Pins A and C of the connector. Pin A must be
positive and Pin C negative. The meter should read
rated battery voltage.

CAUTION
As a safety measure, the engine should be equipped
with an independent overspeed shutdown device in
the event of failure which may render the governor
inoperative.
2. Set potentiometers as indicated below:
a. Set A (ACT) at 3 oclock.
b. Set GAIN at 9 oclock
c. Set D (DER) at 10 oclock
d. Set I (INT) at 8 oclock.
e. L (LIM) is factory adjusted and should be about 10
oclock. (See Note 4.)
3.

NOTE 2
The amount of droop for a given setting depends on pick-up
frequency and no load to full load actuator shaft rotation. A
"DROOP potentiometer setting of 9 oclock will give about 3%
droop, no load to full load, when the pick-up frequency is 4260
Hz and actuator shaft rotation is 13 from no load to full load.
Lower pick-up frequency or smaller shaft rotation results in
less droop.
4.

If a remote speed potentiometer is used, set it to midrange.

5.

Start engine. Then adjust controller SPEED (SPD)

potentiometer until engine is operating at the desired
speed (RPM). (Clockwise increases engine speed )

6.

Adjust the A (ACT) potentiometer with engine running

unloaded
a. Turn the A (ACT) potentiometer slowly clockwise
until the actuator lever oscillates (jiggles) rapidly. Turn
the "A (ACT) potentiometer slowly counterclockwise until the rapid oscillation just stops.
b. Upset governor by tapping actuator lever. If the actuator lever oscillates rapidly, turn the A (ACT) potentiometer slowly counterclockwise until the rapid oscillation just stops.

For isochronous operation, set "DROOP potentiometer

fully counterclockwise (zero droop) and proceed to Step
4. For droop operation, set DROOP potentiometer
to desired droop. Refer to Note 2
5

7. If governor is unstable (hunting), turn "GAIN potentiometer

slowly counterclockwise until it is stable. (Moving actuator lever and constant engine speed means unit is governing and not hunting.) If governor is stable, turn GAIN
potentiometer slowly clockwise until governor starts to
hunt, then turn GAIN slowly counterclockwise until
governor is stable. Upset governor by tapping actuator
lever. Engine should return quickly to its commanded
speed without hunting.

11. Changing droop potentiometer setting adjustment of

the DROOP potentiometer after the controller is calibrated [A (ACT) and GAIN settings set] may result in
some instability when large loads are shed. Therefore,
turning the DROOP potentiometer (clockwise) from a
previous setting may cause system instability which can be
improved (regained) by turning A (ACT) potentiometer
(counterclockwise) slightly and turning GAIN potentiometer (clockwise) slightly.

8. Turn D (DER) clockwise until actuator lever begins to

hunt. One may have to upset governor by tapping actuator
lever, then turn D (DER) slowly counterclockwise until
engine is stable. [D ( DER) setting may be fully clockwise
on some engines which have large mass in the linkage.]

12. If unit has a cover, place cover back onto controller to keep
out dirt and moisture.
NOTE 4
Field Adjustment of L (LIM): L (LIM) is factory adjusted
and is sufficient for most installations. The following method
can be used for setting the L (LIM) potentiometer to match
the governor to the linkage on installations where the engine
can be fully loaded (100%).

NOTE 3
Step 9 must be done when engine is unloaded.
9. After "GAIN, A (ACT) and D (DER) potentiometers are
set, turn power switch OFF. Let engine speed slow down
to about half speed, and then turn power switch "ON.
Watch or listen to engine speed. If engine speed overshoots commanded speed, turn I (INT) potentiometer a
small amount counterclockwise. Keep repeating above
until engine no longer overshoots its commanded speed. [If
L (LIM) potentiometer is set too far clockwise, engine may
also overshoot commanded speed.]

o

10. Changing the adjustments A (ACT), "D (DER), "DROOP

and "GAIN may cause a slight engine speed change which
will require resetting the SPEED (SPD) adjustment.

applicable for controlling steam and water turbines.

Select your controller for the correct input signal frequency range
generated by the magnetic pickup at the maximum engine operated
(RPM) speed.

Tandem Engine Governing

DYNA controllers are available for tandem engine operation. The
controller provides the precise positioning required for accurate tracking of two governor actuators used for controlling tandem-coupled
engines.

Steady State Speed Band

0.2 percent, isochronous control.

Ambient Operating Temperature

-65F (-55C) to +200F (+95C).

No-Break Engine Governing

Temperature Stability Better than 0.5 percent over a temperature range of -55 to 95C (-65 to 200F).

DYNA controllers are available for no-break operation. The controller

is designed to provide dual-mode operation. The controller functions
with fixed gain when the engine is declutched and with an adjustable
high gain when the engine is coupled to the load.

AUXILIARY CONTROL MODULES

Four auxiliary control modules are available: Isochronous
Load Sharing Control, Auto-Synchronizer, Ramp Generator,
and Single Phase Load Pulse Control. These and other
auxiliary functions can be installed at the time of the initial
governor installation or, just as easily, added later when the
need arises. No modification is required to the basic governor
when these modules are added.

FEATURES ARE EASY TO ADD

It is easy to add features to the electric governor to provide
benefits the customer needs. Remote speed setting, isochronous load sharing, automatic synchronizing, ramp generator,
single phase load pulse and KW limits can be added at the time
of initial governor installation or, just as easily, added later
when the need arises. No modification to the basic governor
is required when these features are added. In fact, if the
prewired harness is used, the wires necessary to add these
features are often already provided, so it is indeed easy to add
features.
