Woodward 5466-355 MicroNet Remote Transceiver (XCVR) Analog I/O Module

The 5466-355 (Model: 5466-355) is a high-density, remote transceiver (XCVR) interface module specifically engineered for the Woodward MicroNet and MicroNet Plus turbine control platforms. This module functions as a critical communication and I/O bridge, allowing the main control system to interface with remote field terminal modules. By integrating 8 analog inputs and 4 analog outputs into a single transceiver architecture, the 5466-355 (Part Number: 5466-355) provides the precise data acquisition and actuator drive capability required for high-performance governing of gas and steam turbines.

Designed for mission-critical reliability, the 5466-355 (Model: 5466-355) supports complex signal processing for process variables such as fuel flow, pressure, and temperature. The remote transceiver capabilities allow for a distributed control architecture, reducing the length of sensitive analog cable runs and minimizing electromagnetic interference (EMI). Its robust digital-to-analog and analog-to-digital conversion ensures that actuator positioning commands and sensor feedback remain accurate within $\pm$0.1% of the full scale.

Remote Interface and Signal Protection

The 5466-355 (Model: 5466-355) excels in demanding industrial environments where signal integrity is a challenge. Each of the 8 input channels is individually isolated, preventing ground loops from affecting measurement accuracy. The 4 analog outputs are powerful enough to drive standard Woodward proportional actuators directly, facilitating smooth fuel rack positioning and steam valve modulation.

Detailed Technical Specifications

The 5466-355 (Model: 5466-355) is optimized for low-latency synchronization between the central CPU and remote field devices.
