Description
The Woodward 5417-175 is a high-integrity Analog/Discrete interface cable engineered specifically for the Woodward MicroNet control system architecture. This cable serves as a critical data link between I/O modules and field terminal blocks, ensuring reliable signal transmission in demanding industrial environments such as power generation facilities, oil refineries, and large-scale turbomachinery. Its precision-shielded construction is designed to maintain control loop integrity by mitigating signal noise and electromagnetic interference (EMI), thereby reducing the risk of unplanned system downtime.
Features
- Designed for MicroNet I/O to Field Terminal Module (FTM) connectivity.
- Multi-conductor core optimized for low-impedance signal paths.
- Supports both 4-20 mA analog loops and high-speed discrete logic inputs.
- High-density connectors with gold-plated pins to prevent oxidation and ensure stable contact resistance.
- Advanced shielding (individual and overall foil/braid) to minimize cross-talk.
- Industrial-grade, flame-retardant outer jacket resistant to oil, chemicals, and mechanical abrasion.
Applications
The 5417-175 cable is intended for use in mission-critical Woodward MicroNet control systems. It is typically deployed in applications requiring high-density I/O configurations where signal accuracy and noise immunity are paramount, including turbine control, compressor management, and industrial power plant automation.
