Functional Description

PWB8A999701D is a PCB Card developed by GE. GE control system is engineered to enhance the performance, reliability, and efficiency of GE's gas turbine units, which are used in various industrial and energy applications. The SPEEDTRONIC system is designed to offer maximum starting and running reliability, fast response times, and accurate performance, ensuring that the turbines operate efficiently in diverse conditions. It is specifically tailored to suit a range of applications, from simple cycle to combined cycle configurations.

Features

• One of the key features of the SPEEDTRONIC control system is its ability to generate and adjust critical parameters such as start-up, acceleration, speed, temperature, and load. These parameters are controlled electrically and computed electronically, ensuring accurate and reliable turbine operation. The system continuously monitors and adjusts these variables, which helps to optimize turbine performance, prevent malfunctions, and extend the operational life of the gas turbine.
• The control system employs an advanced feedback mechanism, where high-pressure hydraulics drive servo valves controlling a hydraulic cylinder. This setup utilizes direct electronic feedback, which allows for precise control without detectable dead band. This sophisticated control mechanism ensures that the turbine responds quickly to changes in load and environmental conditions, maintaining optimal performance and minimizing wear and tear on the system.
• The PCB card and the SPEEDTRONIC control system are compatible with all General Electric heavy-duty gas turbines, ranging from 4000 hp individual units to 400 MW combined-cycle units. These turbines are used in a variety of applications, including electric utility peaking, base-load generation, pipeline pumping, and compressor drives. By providing advanced control and monitoring features, the SPEEDTRONIC system ensures that turbines remain reliable, efficient, and cost-effective across various industrial and energy applications.
