Functional Description

IC3600SVZB1 is a Voltage Regulator Card developed by GE. It is a part of Mark I and II control system. It is designed to regulate and stabilize voltage levels within the control system, ensuring reliable and consistent power supply to critical components of gas and steam turbines. It plays a key role in managing voltage fluctuations and protecting sensitive electronic equipment from damage due to overvoltage or undervoltage conditions.

System Features

• The control system is a sophisticated solution developed by General Electric (GE) to significantly improve the performance, reliability, and adaptability of its heavy-duty gas turbines. This advanced system has been engineered to deliver a wide range of performance benefits, including:
  • Maximum starting and running reliability – Ensuring dependable operation from initial start-up through continuous, long-term use.
  • Fast response, accurate performance, and extended operational life – Supporting precise control actions with rapid feedback and minimal delay, which ultimately helps in prolonging the lifespan of turbine components.
  • Adaptability to diverse gas turbine cycles and applications – The system is flexible enough to accommodate various operational scenarios and industry requirements, from simple-cycle to complex combined-cycle configurations.
• Precision Control Through Electrical and Hydraulic Integration: All key control parameters—such as start-up sequencing, acceleration, rotational speed, temperature regulation, and load management—are entirely managed through electrical and electronic means. These parameters are:
  • Generated electrically
  • Biased and computed electronically
  • Indicated and monitored electrically
• The control outputs are then delivered to output amplifiers, which in turn drive servo valves operating on high-pressure hydraulics. These servo valves actuate a hydraulic cylinder that is equipped with direct electronic feedback, enabling the system to function with no detectable dead band—meaning there is no delay or unresponsive range in the control action, ensuring seamless and immediate response.
