Features:
- Chassis format: Woodward identifies 5437-843 as a 12-slot-wide MicroNet Simplex chassis.
- Module space: Six CPU/I/O positions normally support one CPU and five I/O modules.
- Power bays: Two positions are reserved for separate power supplies.
The chassis establishes the module arrangement; the installed CPU, I/O cards and application determine the control functions.
Woodward identifies 5437-844 as a larger 18-slot-wide chassis with twelve CPU/I/O positions, so the two chassis numbers represent different layouts.
A rack-label photo and a list of fitted modules distinguish a chassis-only request from a populated assembly.
Apter Power can quote the Woodward 5437-843 chassis and provide its MicroNet installation reference.

Important Notice: Other accessories, manuals, cables, calibration data, software, etc. are not included with this equipment unless listed in the above stock item description. All prices are shown in USD.
- CPU position: One of the six CPU/I/O positions normally houses the CPU module.
- I/O positions: The remaining five positions accommodate the application’s I/O modules.
- Power-supply bays: Two separate bays each occupy three chassis-width units within the 12-wide frame.
- Exact frame: 5437-843 uses a 12-width-unit chassis with six CPU/I/O positions.
- Larger variant: Woodward 5437-844 uses an 18-width-unit frame with twelve CPU/I/O positions; it is not the same layout.
- Replacement scope: The rack label and occupied-position record distinguish the chassis from the modules fitted in it.
- Airflow: Fit modules or the specified blanking plates in open positions so forced-air cooling follows the intended path.
- Mounting: Woodward recommends bulkhead mounting for the MicroNet Simplex chassis rather than rack mounting.
- Clearance: Keep 8 cm of free space above and below the chassis for ventilation.
- Grounding: Connect protective earth at the chassis ground point below the left side.
- Installed MicroNet systems: Use the exact 5437-843 chassis reference when the existing cabinet documentation specifies it.
- Service spare: Replace a 12-width-unit Simplex chassis with six CPU/I/O positions without implying that fitted modules are included.
- Separately specified assemblies: Quote the chassis, CPU, I/O cards and power supplies as distinct items when the project scope separates them.
