FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION:
The 5437-093 is a specialized 3-Bay Fault Tolerant Chassis engineered for the Woodward NetCon 5000 control system. This ruggedized enclosure provides the mechanical and electrical infrastructure required to house CPU, Power Supply, and I/O modules. Designed for high-availability environments, the Fault Tolerant architecture supports redundant configurations, ensuring that critical turbine control operations remain uninterrupted even during individual module maintenance or failure.
SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE AND BACKPLANE:
The chassis features a high-speed VME-based backplane that facilitates seamless data exchange between the installed modules. This specific 3-bay variant is optimized for smaller-scale footprints or remote I/O nodes where a full-sized rack is not required. It is designed to work in tandem with Woodward�s high-speed communication protocols, providing the physical layer for real-time, deterministic control of steam and gas turbines.
RUGGEDIZED DESIGN AND COOLING:
To ensure long-term reliability in harsh power plant environments, the 5437-093 includes an integrated cooling system to manage the thermal load of high-performance processors. The chassis is built with heavy-duty materials to resist vibration and electromagnetic interference (EMI). Note that this specific model is supplied without TB3, meaning it is intended for systems where the Terminal Block 3 wiring interface is either already present or provided separately to meet specific field wiring requirements.
AVAILABILITY AND SUPPORT:
World of Controls maintains a stock of 5437-093 chassis in both unused and rebuilt conditions to support legacy NetCon 5000 installations. Each chassis is inspected for backplane integrity and fan functionality to ensure it meets original factory standards. Our engineering team can guide module compatibility and terminal block integration for your specific control cabinet layout. Contact us today for technical details or a formal quotation.
What is the Woodward 5437-093?
It is a 3-bay fault-tolerant chassis designed to house and interconnect Woodward NetCon 5000 control modules. It provides the physical rack and backplane communication layer necessary for turbine control operations.
What is meant by Without TB3?
The TB3 is a specific Terminal Block interface used for field wiring connections. This version of the NetCon 3-Bay Fault Tolerant Chassis does not include the TB3 assembly, making it ideal for replacement in existing racks where the original wiring blocks are being reused.
Is the 5437-093 compatible with MicroNet modules?
While NetCon 5000 and MicroNet share similar DNA, hardware compatibility depends on the specific backplane version and the GAP application requirements. It is best to verify your module part numbers with our technical team before installation.
Does the chassis include the power supply?
No, the NetCon 3-Bay Fault Tolerant Chassis is the mechanical chassis and backplane assembly. Power supply modules must be purchased and installed separately in the designated bay.
