I/O modules

The Woodward 5464-223 is a NetCon Serial Input/Output card for industrial communication. This module establishes a reliable serial data link within Woodward control networks. Moreover, it facilitates the exchange of critical control and monitoring parameters. Consequently, you achieve seamless integration between governors, PLCs, and supervisory systems.

Dedicated Serial Communication Interface

This I/O card provides a dedicated channel for serial protocol communication. It typically supports standards like RS-232, RS-422, or RS-485 for flexibility. Furthermore, the card ensures robust data transmission with error-checking capabilities. Therefore, it maintains the integrity of speed, load, and diagnostic information across the system.

System Integration and Electrical Specifications

The 5464-223 card installs directly into a compatible NetCon or MicroNet chassis. It draws operating power directly from the system’s modular backplane. Additionally, the card features optical isolation to protect the control system from electrical noise. This design guarantees stable performance in electrically harsh generator or turbine environments.
