Information About 5501-428
The Woodward 5501-428 is designed for use within NetCon-based control architectures where accurate actuator positioning and dependable fault monitoring are required. Each of its two independent channels can control either proportional or integrating actuators, making the module suitable for a wide range of turbine, engine, and industrial process control applications. The module supports pneumatic and hydromechanical actuators and allows flexible configuration using one or two position feedback devices per channel, such as LVDTs or RVDTs.
Key Features
- Dual-channel actuator control: Independently controls two proportional or integrating actuators within a single module.
- Broad actuator compatibility: Supports pneumatic and hydromechanical actuators across industrial control applications.
- High-accuracy current control: Maintains ±1% output current tolerance for precise actuator positioning.
- Flexible feedback support: Accepts one or two LVDT or RVDT feedback devices per channel for redundancy or precision.
- Integrated diagnostics: Provides fault detection for feedback, excitation, and driver circuits with clear LED indication.
- NetCon system integration: Designed for direct installation into NetCon control chassis with secure motherboard connection.
The 5501-428 delivers the reliability and precision required for critical actuator control tasks in Woodward NetCon-based systems, supporting stable operation and effective fault management in demanding industrial environments.
