This panel-mount unit converts standard 120 VAC utility power into the regulated DC voltages required by the MicroNet backplane and its associated I\/O modules. Engineered for high-availability environments such as steam turbine control, gas compression stations, and large-scale power plants, the 5501-380 provides stable energy delivery even under fluctuating load conditions. Its heavy-duty construction and high MTBF rating make it a critical component for reducing unscheduled downtime and ensuring the long-term reliability of industrial control racks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned for seamless integration with the Woodward MicroNet control system.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-efficiency switching topology to minimize heat dissipation and improve system longevity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntegrated protection circuitry including over-voltage, over-current, and short-circuit safeguards.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInternal filtering circuits to suppress electromagnetic interference (EMI) and line transients.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront-panel status indicators for real-time power health monitoring and diagnostic troubleshooting.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRugged panel-mount chassis engineered for industrial thermal convection.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eApplications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 5501-380 power supply is utilized in mission-critical industrial automation applications, including:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteam and gas turbine control systems.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGas compression station control.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLarge-scale power generation and distribution plants.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndustrial process control racks requiring high-reliability DC power.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable border=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5501-380\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWoodward\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSeries\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMicroNet\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModule Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePLC Power Supply\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMounting Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePanel Mount\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInput Voltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e120 VAC (nominal)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInput Frequency\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e47 to 63 Hz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOutput Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMulti-rail DC (Backplane Optimized)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOperating Temperature\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0 to 60 deg C\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch3\u003eInstallation Guidelines\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnsure the control cabinet provides adequate ventilation to maintain operating temperatures within the 0 to 60 deg C range.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVerify that the input power source is within the specified 120 VAC nominal range before connection.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlways power down the MicroNet rack before inserting or removing the power supply module to prevent electrical arcing or damage to backplane pins.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnsure the chassis is securely mounted and properly grounded to the cabinet backplane to maintain EMI shielding effectiveness.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoute high-voltage AC input wiring away from low-voltage signal cables to minimize potential noise coupling.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the 5501-380 compatible with all MicroNet systems?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 5501-380 is designed for the MicroNet architecture; however, always verify your specific system configuration and backplane requirements against the module's output specifications before installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat do the status indicators on the front panel signify?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe status indicators provide visual confirmation of the power supply's operational health.
