WOODWARD 5464-013 Semi Insulated Input Driver – Woodward Control Systems Series
When a signal input driver fails in a live turbine control panel or generator protection system, the consequences are not a warning light — they are an unplanned shutdown, a production loss measured in thousands of dollars per hour, and a maintenance crew troubleshooting under pressure. The WOODWARD 5464-013 Semi Insulated Input Driver is the component that stands between a clean, conditioned signal and the noise, ground loops, and transient spikes that characterize real industrial environments. Without it, your control system is exposed.
The 5464-013 occupies a precise position within Woodward’s established control hardware ecosystem. Designed as a semi-insulated driver module, it provides the signal conditioning and galvanic separation required by Woodward’s turbine and engine management controllers. In global power generation, oil & gas, and marine propulsion markets, Woodward control hardware is specified by OEMs and EPCs as the reference standard — and the 5464-013 is a load-bearing component within that architecture.

Key Features & Benefits
- Semi-insulated signal path — Provides functional isolation between field wiring and control logic, reducing ground loop interference that can cause false trips in sensitive turbine governor circuits.
- Direct OEM form-fit-function replacement — Matches the original Woodward chassis footprint and connector pinout, enabling swap-out without rewiring or firmware reconfiguration, cutting maintenance downtime to under 30 minutes in documented field cases.
- Noise rejection for harsh field environments — Conditions discrete input signals in environments with high electromagnetic interference (EMI) from variable frequency drives, switchgear, and large motor starts.
- Compliant with IEC 61511 functional safety principles — Supports safety instrumented system (SIS) architectures where input signal integrity is a defined safety requirement.
- Extends control system service life — Allows operators to maintain legacy Woodward control platforms beyond OEM support windows, deferring capital expenditure on full system replacement by 3–7 years in typical retrofit projects.
- Traceable supply chain — Sourced through verified channels with serialization records, supporting audit requirements for ISO 55001 asset management programs.
Industry & Equipment Applications
- Power Generation — Gas Turbines: Governor control panels for GE Frame 5/6/7 turbines using Woodward MicroNet or 505 controllers; input signal conditioning for speed, temperature, and pressure discrete inputs.
- Power Generation — Steam Turbines: Extraction and back-pressure turbine control systems in combined heat and power (CHP) plants; discrete trip signal input processing.
- Oil & Gas — Upstream: Wellhead control panels and compressor station automation; input driver for emergency shutdown (ESD) discrete signals in SIL-rated loops.
- Oil & Gas — Midstream: Pipeline compressor stations with Woodward-based prime mover controls; signal conditioning for vibration switch and pressure switch inputs.
- Marine Propulsion: Diesel engine governor systems on commercial vessels and offshore platforms; input module for engine protection discrete signals per classification society requirements.
- Industrial Power — Reciprocating Engines: Gas engine gensets in distributed power and landfill gas applications; Woodward 2301 and 723 series controller input signal interface.
System Integration & Compatible Parts
Upstream components (signal sources): Field sensors, pressure switches, speed pickups, and discrete output cards from PLCs feeding into the Woodward control chassis.
Downstream components (control logic): Woodward MicroNet TMR/Plus controllers, Woodward 505/505E steam turbine controllers, Woodward 723 digital control.
Commonly paired Woodward modules:
- 5464-014 / 5464-015 — Adjacent input driver variants within the same series (verify compatibility with your chassis revision before substitution)
- 5501-xxx series — Woodward output driver cards used in the same control rack
Substitution note: Alternative part numbers within the 5464-xxx family may be electrically equivalent but differ in insulation class or connector type. Always cross-reference against your system’s wiring diagram and Woodward BOM before substituting. Konmask.com can assist with cross-reference verification.
Our Quality Assurance Process
- Source verification: All units are sourced from documented supply channels. Supplier credentials and transaction records are retained for traceability audits.
- Visual and mechanical inspection: Each module is inspected for physical integrity — connector condition, PCB cleanliness, label legibility, and absence of rework or counterfeit indicators per AS6081 counterfeit avoidance guidelines.
- Functional pre-shipment check: Where test equipment is available for the specific platform, modules undergo bench-level continuity and signal path verification before dispatch.
- Packaging and ESD protection: Units are packed in anti-static bags with foam cushioning and clearly labeled with part number and serial/lot data to maintain traceability through delivery.
Available documentation upon request: Certificate of Conformance (CoC), inspection report, supplier traceability records, photos of actual unit prior to shipment.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the WOODWARD 5464-013 compatible with the Woodward MicroNet Plus controller?
A: The 5464-013 is designed for use within Woodward’s control hardware ecosystem. Compatibility with a specific chassis such as the MicroNet Plus depends on your system’s slot configuration and I/O map. We recommend sharing your system BOM or wiring diagram with us so we can confirm fit before you order.
Q: Can I use the 5464-013 as a direct replacement for a failed input driver in a running plant without reconfiguring the controller?
A: In most cases, yes — the 5464-013 is a form-fit-function replacement within its designated slot. However, if the original failure caused downstream controller faults or if the chassis firmware has been updated since original commissioning, a brief recommissioning check is advisable. Our team can advise based on your specific controller revision.
Q: What is the lead time for the WOODWARD 5464-013 and do you hold stock for urgent shutdown situations?
A: Lead time varies by current stock position. For urgent plant shutdown or emergency maintenance situations, contact us directly at support@konmask.com or +0086 19859288691 and indicate the urgency — we prioritize emergency inquiries and will provide a same-day availability response.
