Description

Woodward 5501-466

Technical Specifications

  • Product Type: MicroNet Power Supply / Controller Module.
  • Operating Voltage: 220V AC.
  • Output Frequency: 50Hz.
  • Processing Speed: 50MHz.
  • Memory Capacity: 53MB for both program and data storage.

Functional Features

  • Intuitive Operation: Features a menu-driven software interface with a front-panel operator control panel, including a two-line, 24-character text display for easy configuration and monitoring.
  • Dual Operating Modes: Supports distinct Programming Mode (for internal configuration and setup) and Run Mode (for executing automated control sequences).
  • High Flexibility: Highly configurable and scalable to control specific application requirements within the MicroNet ecosystem.
  • Robust Construction: Comprises a series of printed circuit boards securely housed in an enclosure designed for safe integration into control panels.

Application Scenarios
Widely deployed in the oil and gas, petrochemical, chemical, metallurgy, pulp and paper, energy, power transmission and distribution, water/wastewater treatment, and municipal boiler heating industries.

Performance Parameters

  • Environmental Tolerance: Operates reliably in ambient temperatures from 0°C to 60°C.
  • Humidity Resistance: Rated for up to 60% relative humidity (non-condensing).
  • Processing Power: 50MHz processor with 53MB memory ensures fast and responsive control.

Material Composition
Housed in a durable metal enclosure designed for control room installation. Internal components are industrial-grade electronic assemblies mounted on high-quality PCBs.

Structural Characteristics
A modular, control-room-mounted unit weighing approximately 6.5 kg. The front panel integrates the operator interface with its display and keypad for direct interaction.

Working Principle
The module converts incoming AC power to the regulated DC voltages required by the MicroNet system. Simultaneously, its 50MHz processor executes the turbine control program, reading inputs, executing logic, and updating outputs to manage the prime mover’s speed and load.

Installation Requirements
Install in a clean, climate-controlled control room environment within the specified temperature and humidity limits. Ensure adequate ventilation for heat dissipation. Mount securely using the provided hardware.

Usage Precautions

  • Always follow ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) precautions when handling the module.
  • Verify input voltage and frequency match the module’s specifications before energizing.
  • Use the Programming Mode for all configuration changes to prevent unintended turbine operation.
