KG6-04 CONTROL BOX

DESCRIPTION:

The KG6-04 analogue speed governor control box is used extensively for diesel and gas engine electrical power
generation and Combined Heat and Power installations. OEM’s include, Perkins 4000 series, MAN Gas engines
and Deutz.

The KG6-04 controller is designed to drive the Heinzmann range of permanent magnet driven actuators in the
range of 6Nm of part numbers, STG6-01, STG6-02V and STG6-03. Analogue and Digital Speed controllers
available from stock.

Fitting of the control box can be in any position or attitude relative to the engine and has the advantage of being
able to be mounted away from engine in a remote or local control panel.

Another major advantage is that the controller is that it drives the actuator motor in both directions at full rated
torque and has a closed loop positional drive allowing high torque to overcome linkage friction over the fuel rack
range 0—100%.

The high torque comes with the advantage of low actuating running current. On a MAN straight 6 and V12 gas
engine, the STG6-01 running current is normally no more than 1.2 amperes at steady state rated speed.

SERVICE OFFERED
Governor Technical Solutions offers to supply a comprehensive range of NEW and service exchange
Heinzmann analogue and digital speed governors for actuator ranges STG6-01 up to STG40.
A comprehensive overhaul service is available based on a 48 hour turnaround from receipt of the customers
part and confirmation in writing of the overhaul quotation . An express 24 hour service is also available including
weekend working.
All parts replaced are genuine, to the original manufacturers specification and come with a 12 month warranty.
Extended warranty is also available on request. However this does depend upon the diesel or gas engines
duty.
The KG6-04 with SFBG-03 Start Fuel units control a range of actuators fitted to the Perkins 4000, MAN and
Deutz gas and diesel engines. These are readily available from a comprehensive new or service exchange
stock in the UK.

KG6-04 Control Box Wiring Diagram:

The Governor Control Box KG6-04 often requires the

fitting of a Start Fuel Limitation board in the controller to
aid smoke limitation on engine starting.
The start fuel board is called a SFBG -03 unit and fits
on the right hand side inside the governor control box.
There are two settings for the SFBG-03 unit:

 0 –100% fuel position whilst starting ( No limit

when running)

 0-100% fuel position limit after starting ( Load

Limit). SGBG-03 Start Fuel Board

DPES-01 …...KG6-04 Control Box Engine Simulator:

The DPES-01 unit was designed to allow the KG analogue engine

speed governor to be tested and simulated without the engine running.
This has the advantage of knowing that the speed set point and
frequency range of the engine governor is correct before the engine is
started.
A practical advantage of this is the setting of the governor speed droop
when the minimum and maximum fuel positions are known.
The primary use of the unit is to enable the speed governor to be used
in closed loop speed control without the engine having to be run.
This unit has the ability to show that the governor is running correctly
without the engine having to be started. ( Excellent service tool for
service engineers )
The unit comes with a hand carry case with all leads and associated
battery and mains power pack.
Full calibration of the speed governor range can be accomplished in
both Isochronous and Droop Speed control.
Simulated load is also possible for Droop and Isochronous speed con-
trol allowing full actuator movement over the full 0 – 100% actuator
travel.

KG6-04 Actuator Current Sensing:

When all simulation settings have been made using
the DPES-01 for the speed governor it is useful to test
the actuator current to show that the current settings
in the controller are set correctly.
The current not only indicates the value whilst the
engine is running, but also indicates that the actuator
selection for the size of engine is correct.
All Heinzmann STG actuators have a maximum tran-
sient/stall current of 6.5 amperes, but the running cur-
rent must not exceed 3.2 A.
The current also indicates if there is a sticking fuel
rack, when the engine is running.
