The 5464-414 is a high-performance digital speed sensing module developed for the Woodward MicroNet control platform. This microprocessor-based module interfaces with magnetic pickups (MPUs) or active proximity probes to deliver precise rotational speed measurements to the system CPU.
Designed for critical prime mover applications—including gas turbines, steam turbines, and large reciprocating engines—the 5464-414 uses advanced digital signal processing and high-resolution pulse counting to ensure accurate and stable RPM detection. Its onboard microprocessor performs independent signal validation and filtering, enhancing reliability in high-vibration and high-EMI industrial environments.
The module is housed in a rugged plug-in chassis format compatible with MicroNet Simplex and Triple Modular Redundant (TMR) systems. Software-configurable speed ranges and alarm setpoints allow flexible deployment for overspeed protection, governor control, and safety-instrumented functions.
