Woodward 5417-028 Cable
Product Introduction
The Woodward 5417-028 cable is a purpose-built interconnect designed to facilitate robust communication between Woodward governor and control modules and field instrumentation. Featuring high-quality conductors, durable insulation materials, and precision-engineered connectors, this cable delivers reliable signal transmission in demanding industrial environments. The assembly is factory-terminated with mating 9-pin D-sub connectors, ensuring a secure, plug-and-play installation that minimizes wiring errors and accelerates commissioning of engine control systems.
Constructed with a flexible yet tough outer jacket, the 5417-028 stands up to mechanical stress, oil exposure, and temperature extremes. With a cable length of 10 ft and a shipping weight of 1.27 kg, it strikes a balance between reach and manageability. Commonly used in generator sets, turbine controls, and other rotating-equipment applications, the 5417-028 helps maintain precise speed regulation, load sharing, and system stability under continuous operation.

Product Applications
The Woodward 5417-028 cable is primarily used in power-generation and industrial process control applications.
• In diesel and gas engine generator sets, it connects the governor control module to speed sensors and actuator drives, ensuring precise speed feedback and load sharing.
• In turbine control systems, it transmits high-fidelity signals from proximity probes and temperature sensors to the turbine control cabinet, enabling accurate trip logic and protective interlocks.
• Marine propulsion platforms utilize this cable to link engine control units with throttle actuators and remote monitoring devices, maintaining synchronization under continuous vibration and motion.
• In oil & gas installations, the 5417-028 provides communications between field instruments (pressure, temperature, position transducers) and cabinet-mounted controllers, supporting real-time condition monitoring.
• For retrofit projects, the 5417-028 replaces aging or damaged interconnects without modifying existing panels, streamlining upgrades and minimizing downtime.
Product Advantages
• Superior Signal Integrity – Stranded tin-plated copper conductors combined with XLPE insulation reduce electrical resistance and minimize signal attenuation over the 10 ft length.
• Rugged Durability – The neoprene-based jacket shields the conductors from abrasion, oil, and UV exposure. Its flexibility supports tight routing without compromising cable life.
• Precision Connectivity – Factory-terminated 9-pin D-sub connectors ensure consistent pin-out orientation and secure mating, eliminating field termination errors.
• Wide Temperature Tolerance – Rated from –40 °C to +85 °C, the cable remains pliable in sub-zero conditions and stable in high-temperature engine rooms.
• Standardized Interface – Compatible with all Woodward governor and control modules that use the same D-sub configuration, enabling plug-and-play integration across multiple platforms.
• Compliance and Safety – UL AWM Style 2464, CE, and RoHS certifications confirm the cable meets international safety and environmental standards.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What is the primary role of the 5417-028 cable?
A1: It provides a factory-terminated, shielded interconnect between Woodward governor/control modules and field sensors or actuators, ensuring reliable transmission of control and feedback signals.
Q2: Why is the cable length specified as 10 ft?
A2: A 10 ft length offers sufficient reach for most engine-generator installations while avoiding excessive slack, facilitating neat routing in control cabinets.
Q3: What is the weight of this cable assembly?
A3: The 5417-028 weighs approximately 1.27 kg, accounting for its thicker shielding and heavier conductor bundle compared to shorter or lighter variants.
Q4: Which connectors are used on the 5417-028?
A4: The cable is terminated with a 9-pin D-sub male connector on one end (for the governor module) and a 9-pin D-sub female connector on the other end (for field devices).
