Description
Woodward 5441-693
Technical Specifications:
- Brand: Woodward
- Model: 5441-693
- Product Type: Industrial-grade digital microprocessor controller
- Power Supply: Adaptable to industrial standard power supplies
- Communication: RS-232, Ethernet, Modbus protocol
Functional Features:
- Multi-Mode Control: Supports speed control, load control, and synchronous control (isochronous mode) for optimized turbine operation.
- Advanced Protection: Includes critical speed avoidance and valve limiting functions to prevent equipment damage and ensure operational safety.
- Real-Time Diagnostics: Continuously monitors turbine performance data (speed, temperature, pressure) and triggers alarms for fault conditions.
- Operator Interface: Features an integrated front panel with a two-line, 24-character text display for local parameter adjustment and status monitoring.
Application Scenarios:
Extensively used in fire and gas power plants, turbine generator sets, waste heat recovery systems, oil field drive equipment, pipeline compressors, and marine propulsion systems.
Performance Parameters:
- Contact Inputs: 16 (4 fixed, 12 programmable)
- Analog Inputs: 6 programmable (4-20mA)
- Analog Output: 0-10V DC
Material Composition:
Enclosed in a rugged, IP56-rated housing designed to resist vibration, shock, and harsh industrial temperatures ranging from -10°C to 60°C.
Structural Features:
Compact design measuring approximately 15.2 cm × 5.1 cm × 20.3 cm and weighing around 0.7 kg. Features flush mounting capabilities for control cabinets and an integrated operator control panel on the front face.
Working Principle:
The microprocessor executes complex control algorithms based on real-time sensor inputs. It calculates the precise actuator positioning required to maintain desired speed or load parameters, outputting analog signals to drive steam or gas inlet valves.
Installation Requirements:
Designed for flush mounting in control cabinets using standard rail fixation. Requires adequate ventilation to maintain operating temperatures within specified limits.
Usage Precautions:
Utilize the menu-driven software for initial configuration. Ensure Ethernet and RS-232 connections are properly terminated. Conduct thorough system testing before placing the turbine into full commercial operation.
