3. Key Features
3.1 SIL 3 Certified Safety Control
Certified for SIL 3 operation, the module integrates triple-modular redundancy (TMR) in critical circuits and 1+1 hot standby redundancy. Automatic failover (≤5 ms) ensures uninterrupted control, preventing hazardous conditions like gas turbine overspeed and fuel system malfunctions, which is vital for power plant safety.
3.2 Precise Gas Turbine Control
With a 1 ms control cycle and advanced PID algorithms optimized for gas turbines, the module achieves precise regulation of speed (±0.1% rated speed) and fuel flow. It supports load following and peak shaving functions, adapting to rapid grid load changes while maintaining turbine efficiency.
3.3 Integrated I/O & Flexible Expansion
Equipped with 48 integrated I/O channels (AI/AO/DI/DO), the module eliminates the need for external I/O modules, simplifying system architecture. It supports daisy-chain expansion of additional I/O modules via the AC 800M backplane, adapting to gas turbines of different capacities (5–50 MW).
3.4 Harsh Environment Resilience
The module operates reliably in a wide temperature range (-10°C–70°C) and features a rugged metal housing with IP40 protection. Enhanced EMC performance (compliant with IEC 61000-4) resists interference from turbine electrical systems and high-voltage equipment, ensuring stable operation in power plant environments.
