5464-333 Engine Control Module

Key Features and Advantages

The Woodward 5464-333 engine control module delivers industrial-grade reliability for critical power generation and marine propulsion systems. Its rugged IP67-rated enclosure withstands harsh environments including extreme temperatures (-40°C to +85°C), high vibration, and exposure to oils/chemicals. The 32-bit RISC processor executes control algorithms with deterministic 1ms cycle times for precise engine management.

Advanced diagnostics: Real-time monitoring of engine parameters with configurable alarm thresholds enables predictive maintenance. The 5464-333 stores operational data in non-volatile memory for failure analysis and performance optimization. Dual CANbus interfaces support simultaneous communication with HMIs and other control systems without additional gateways.

Configuration flexibility: Eight universal analog inputs accept multiple signal types (0-5V, 4-20mA, RTD, thermocouple) while twelve configurable digital I/O points adapt to various sensor and actuator requirements. The module’s hot-swappable design allows maintenance without system shutdown in redundant configurations.

Safety compliance: Certified for ATEX Zone 2 hazardous locations, the 5464-333 meets stringent safety requirements for oil/gas applications. Password-protected configuration prevents unauthorized parameter changes, with audit trails tracking all adjustments. The module’s low-power design (typically <2W) reduces heat generation in enclosed panels.

Integration capabilities: Woodward’s proprietary software tools simplify configuration with drag-and-drop function blocks for common engine control strategies. The module’s Modbus RTU interface enables connectivity to legacy SCADA systems while supporting firmware updates via Ethernet for future-proof operation.
