We recently fitted this bespoke electronic governor set up on a 185kva John Deere engined generator being prepared in our workshop. The mechanical governor’s performance on load was not up to par with over 5 cycles of droop between no load and full load, indeed full load was hardly achievable! We fabricated a suitable bracket and used a GAC ADD255-12 actuator coupled to the injector pump through a rose jointed linkage and ESD5500E controller to control the fuel pump throttle arm giving us control over the fuelling available allowing the engine to respond quickly to load changes. The end result was isochronous operation between no load and full load.
