Woodward 8200-1302 Flex505 Controller Overview

The Woodward 8200-1302 is a significant upgrade to the existing 505 product line. This Flex505 controller features an enhanced CPU, graphical display, and improved communications. The Woodward 8200-1302 has the same installation and mounting as the current 505 series. It is compliant with Marine and ATEX standards for hazardous environments. This controller supports expanded I/O options when using Woodward CAN distributed I/O nodes. Compatible distributed I/O nodes include RTCnet and LINKnet HT. The Woodward 8200-1302 operates reliably from -30°C to +70°C with display active.
