Thermocouple Temperature Monitoring Solution – WOODWARD 5462-948 | T/C Card Series
Where This Product Is Used
The WOODWARD 5462-948 T/C Card (8 Channel) is a dedicated thermocouple input module engineered for high-reliability temperature acquisition in critical industrial control systems. Typical deployment environments include:
- Gas & Steam Turbine Control – Exhaust gas temperature (EGT) monitoring across all 8 channels simultaneously in WOODWARD governor and control systems
- Power Generation Plants – Generator protection panels requiring multi-point thermal surveillance
- Compressor Stations – Bearing and winding temperature monitoring in reciprocating and centrifugal compressor packages
- Oil & Gas Processing – Wellhead and pipeline thermal management integrated with SCADA/DCS architectures
- Industrial Furnaces & Kilns – Zone-by-zone temperature profiling for combustion optimization
- Marine Propulsion Systems – Engine room thermal monitoring on vessels using WOODWARD speed control platforms
Engineers specify this card wherever 8 independent thermocouple inputs must be conditioned, isolated, and digitized within a single compact module slot.

Why Engineers Specify This Model
- 8-Channel Density – Consolidates 8 thermocouple inputs into a single card slot, reducing rack space and wiring complexity versus discrete transmitters
- Integrated CJC – On-board cold junction compensation eliminates the need for external reference junctions, improving measurement accuracy
- Platform Native – Designed as an OEM module for WOODWARD control systems; plug-and-play compatibility with no custom driver development
- Galvanic Isolation – Protects the control backplane from ground loops and common-mode noise inherent in industrial thermocouple wiring
- Proven Field Record – Widely deployed in turbine OEM packages globally; long service history in harsh environments
- Simplified Spare Parts Management – Single SKU covers all 8 channels; reduces spare parts inventory overhead for plant maintenance teams

Application-Specific FAQ
Q: Is the 5462-948 compatible with WOODWARD MicroNet TMR systems?
A: Yes. The 5462-948 is designed for WOODWARD’s MicroNet platform family. Confirm slot compatibility with your specific chassis revision using the WOODWARD system manual.
Q: Which thermocouple types does this card support?
A: The card supports standard industrial thermocouple types (J, K, T, E, R, S, B). The active type is configured via the WOODWARD application software. Consult your system configuration file for the type in use.
Q: Can I use this card as a direct replacement for a failed unit without reconfiguration?
A: In most cases, yes — provided the replacement unit shares the same hardware revision. The configuration is stored in the controller, not the card. Always verify revision compatibility before hot-swapping.
Q: Do you offer exchange or repair services for the 5462-948?
A: We offer outright sale of tested units. For repair or exchange programs, contact us at support@konmask.com to discuss options.
