Control of small steam turbines
The compact control system for small steam turbines, CTCS, is an alternative to the more robust TCS/TPS systems based on the SandRA Z200 platform. It is designed to meet customer demands for a cost-effective and simple solution for regulating small turbines in thermal and hydro power plants.
The compact turbine controller can be installed in a wall-mounted cabinet. The main components of the cabinet are user-programmable units from the SandRA Z211 series, which serve the functions of turbine control and protection. A control panel can be mounted on the front door for system operation and parameter configuration.
The CTCS also includes a Vibration Monitoring System (VMS) and Overspeed Protection (OSP) provided by Profess, which, in combination with the ZAT control unit, ensure reliable operation of low-output steam turbines.
The compact CTCS system is suitable for both new installations and retrofits of existing systems.
Typical customers for this product include power plant operators, EPC contractors, and technology suppliers.
Advantages of the compact turbine controller
- Ability to respond to operational technology requirements
- Possibility of customized solutions thanks to the SandRA instrumentation design
- Same production quality as other ZAT products
- Lower price than Z200 instrumentation, lower than competitors
- Same delivery parameters as other ZAT projects
- Faster and cheaper solution design
- Availability of support for control system operation - documentation, individual configuration
