The Woodward 5466-1035 functions as the high-performance computational heart of the MicroNet Plus Digital Control System. This 100% Brand New CPU5200 module utilizes the Motorola MPC5200 PowerPC processor to execute complex control algorithms for gas turbines, large compressors, and marine propulsion systems. It provides the critical processing power required for high-speed regulation while offering robust redundancy options to prevent catastrophic system failure in mission-critical energy and oil & gas applications.

High-Speed Deterministic Control: The MPC5200 PowerPC architecture handles intensive floating-point calculations with minimal jitter. This ensures precise speed and load control for rotating equipment, significantly reducing mechanical wear caused by hunting or lag.
Fault-Tolerant Redundancy: The module supports dual CPU configurations. In this mode, the secondary CPU tracks the primary’s memory states in real-time, enabling an instantaneous bumpless transfer if the primary unit detects a hardware fault.
Hardened Security & Connectivity: An embedded firewall and GAP security blocks protect the control logic from unauthorized network access. Furthermore, the diverse array of CAN, Ethernet, and serial ports allows the 5466-1035 to aggregate data from multiple field devices simultaneously.
Ruggedized for Harsh Zones: Woodward engineers this module to pass Lloyds ENV2 vibration testing. The hardware withstands the high-frequency resonance typical of turbine decks and engine rooms, maintaining signal integrity where standard PLCs fail.
Can the 5466-1035 expand via Real-Time Network (RTN) chassis?
No. The 5466-1035 model does not support RTN expansion. It serves as a centralized processor for the local MicroNet Plus chassis. For systems requiring remote expansion, consult our engineering team for CPU models with RTN capability.
How does the module handle communication timeouts?
The 5466-1035 features dedicated module fault LEDs and configurable watchdog timers. If communication breaks on the CAN or Ethernet links, the CPU triggers a fail-safe state or initiates a switchover to the redundant controller within milliseconds.
What software environment is required for configuration?
This CPU module runs GAP (Graphical Application Programmer) software. The 5466-1035 Revision H includes tool and protocol updates that improve compatibility with modern Woodward software suites.
Is the internal battery user-replaceable?
The real-time clock battery is non-user replaceable. However, the module retains its core logic in non-volatile Flash memory, ensuring the control application remains intact even if the battery expires.
