5462-966

Product Overview The Woodward 5462-966 is a high-performance digital speed/load controller from the 505 series, designed for steam/gas turbines, diesel/gas engines in power generation, petrochemicals, and industrial drives. It provides precision speed/load regulation + integrated system protection for standalone or grid-connected units.

Description

Key Features

  • Dual control modes: Isochronous (zero droop) for constant-speed standalone operation; droop control for grid parallel and load sharing.

  • High accuracy: Speed regulation ±0.25% with adaptive PID tuning.

  • Flexible setpoint: Remote control via 4–20 mA / 1–5 VDC analog signals.

  • Integrated protection: Independent overspeed logic, critical speed avoidance, soft start, valve position limiting, 15 fault shutdown + 15 alarm inputs, first-out fault memory.

  • Communications: RS-232/RS-485 with Modbus RTU/ASCII; password-protected parameters.

  • Highly integrated: Works with Woodward actuators, I/O modules, and generator controllers for full-system control.

I/O Configuration

  • Inputs: 2 speed (MPU/proximity), 8 analog (4–20 mA), 20 discrete.

  • Outputs: 2 actuator (4–20 mA / 20–200 mA), 8 relay.

Technical Specifications

  • Power supply: 18–32 VDC (low voltage); 88–264 VAC / 90–150 VDC (high voltage).

  • Operating temperature: –40 °C to +70 °C.

  • Storage temperature: –55 °C to +85 °C.

  • Protection: IP20; safety integrity level SIL2.

  • Dimensions: ~229 × 203 × 25 mm.

  • Weight: ~0.5 kg.

Applications

  • Turbines: Steam/gas turbine speed/load control and overspeed protection.

  • Engines: Diesel/gas generator sets, industrial prime movers.

  • Power plants: Islanded/grid-connected generation, load sharing, frequency control.
