FEATURES & FUNCTIONALITY

Woodward’s 5009FT TMR controls industrial steam turbines of all sizes and types in system-critical applications requiring maximum reliability and availability. This steam turbine controller includes specifically-designed algorithms and logic to start, stop, control, and protect industrial steam turbines or turbo-expanders, driving compressors, generators, or pumps.

Designed for today's plant standardization practices, the 5009FT control system's versatile program can be configured to meet your production needs.

Control steam turbines including:

Single valve
Single extraction
Single admission
Single extraction/admission

The 5009FT control's unique PID structure makes it ideal for petrochemical or power generation applications.

Control steam plant parameters including:

Compressor speed
Generator frequency
Turbine load
Turbine inlet pressures
Exhaust header pressures
Tie-line power
Fault-tolerant I/O handling and processing:
Latent fault detection on relay outputs
Time-stamped alarms and trips
Discrete input time-stamp with 1 ms resolution
Analog input time-stamp with 5 ms resolution
Extensive fault detection and annunciation—including first-out indication
Critical speed avoidance (3 speed bands)
Auto start sequence (hot & cold starts)
Three sensors per critical parameter can be configured
Dual speed/load dynamics
Zero speed detection with proximity probe down to 0.5 Hz
Peak speed indication for overspeed trip
Automatic hand valve operation (using first stage pressure)
Independent Modbus® * communication links
Remote analog setpoints for all PIDs
CCT (Configuration & Commissioning Tool)—17” (43 cm) touchscreen engineering workstation for configuration, service, and Turbine operation.
