A microprocessor-based digital control provides flexibility in configuring to your specific control requirements. This ability to configure your system in the field allows a single design to be used in many different control applications, and reduces both cost and delivery time. Applications The Peak 150 digital control is designed to control a steam turbine driving a mechanical load. It provides tight control of speed (NEMA D) and includes an input for a 4–20 mA remote speed control signal, which can be used for a process-generated input to control the speed setting. Other features include dual speed control dynamics and over-speed trip test capabilities. Operation The operation of the control is simple. To start the turbine, the steam-supply valve must be opened (manually or by other means). When the turbine comes up to the user-determined idle speed, the Peak 150 system takes control of the turbine—the steam-supply valve can then be opened fully. The Peak 150 control includes circuitry for detecting the loss of either MPU signal—this circuitry is automatically overridden for starting. The turbine can be accelerated from idle speed to minimum governor speed either automatically (by using the remote Idle/Min Gov contacts or by using the front panel start), or manually (by using the panel or remote Raise or Lower commands). Page 1 of 6 Operating Modes The Peak 150 control has three operating modes: manual mode, remote speed set mode, and combination mode. Manual Mode If the manual mode is configured, the turbine speed is adjusted solely by the front panel keys and the remote raise and lower discrete inputs. The remote speed setting analog input is ignored in this mode. Remote Speed Set Mode When the remote speed set mode is configured, the turbine speed is determined by the remote speed setting analog input. When the remote speed setting enable contact is closed and the turbine is at or above minimum governor speed, turbine speed will ramp from minimum governor speed to the remote value at a user-defined rate. Once the speed set point output matches the setting of the remote speed setting signal, the speed will change at a new user-defined rate for process control. If the remote speed setting signal is disabled for any reason, the speed set point will remain at the last speed and the set point adjustment operates as it does in manual mode. Combination Mode The combination mode is similar to the analog remote speed set mode, except that the speed demand generated by the discrete (front panel and remote raise and lower contact inputs) and the analog remote speed setting signal are compared for the highest value. This highest value is passed on as the commanded speed. If the remote speed setting signal is disabled for any reason, control of the speed set point operates as it does in manual mode. Programming Unit A small hand-held programmer (see illustration) connects to the Peak Page 2 of 6 150 to permit system configuration and tuning. System constants cannot be changed without this unit, so unauthorized changes are easily prevented by limiting access to the programmer. Critical Speed Avoidance To protect the turbine and skid from excessive vibration, a critical speed band can be defined by the user. While within this band, turbine speed will change at a fast rate (user-defined) and cannot be stopped within the band Specifications Inputs Pickup Inputs (2) Two identical inputs, high-signal-selected Minimum input voltage 1 Vrms, minimum frequency 200 Hz, maximum frequency 15 kHz Analog Input (1) Remote Speed Setting signal (4–20 mA or 1–5 Vdc, internal jumper selectable) Discrete Inputs (8) Remote (isolated, 5–28 Vdc) Options Raise speed Lower speed Emergency stop Alarm reset Remote speed set enable Start Idle/minimum governor Select high dynamics or over-speed test Outputs Analog Outputs (2) Actual speed output (scalable, 4–20/0–1 mA) Configurable readout (scalable, 4–20/0–1 mA) Options Actual speed Speed setpoint Actuator output Remote speed setpoint Valve ramp value Page 3 of 6 Actuator Output (1) 4–20 or 0–200 mA (internal jumper selectable) Relay Outputs (4) Internal jumpers provide choice of normally-open or normally-closed Contacts Contact ratings are 2 A resistive @ 28 Vdc 0.3 A resistive @ 115 Vac Shutdown (de-energizes or energizes for shutdown) Alarm (de-energizes for alarm) Configurable Relay #1 Configurable Relay #2 Options Alarm Trip output Shutdown Remote control Speed control MPU failure Overspeed trip Overspeed test Remote signal OK Speed switch #1 Speed switch #2 Hand valve #1 Hand valve #2 Operator Control Panel Keypad Switches (6) Options Raise speed Lower speed Emergency trip Start Overspeed test Alarm reset LED Indicators (6) Remote speed setting signal status Shutdown status MPU #1 status MPU #2 status CPU status Overspeed test status Digital Display Five-digit LED speed display Page 4 of 6 Block Diagram Communication Serial communication using the Modbus® * protocol is an option on the Peak 150. The transmission mode can be configured to be either RTU or ASCII mode. RS-232, RS- 422, and RS-485 will all be supported through wiring to the proper terminals. Modbus, when purchased, permits communication with Programmable Logic Controllers or Distributive Control Systems. Speed, speed setpoint, alarm and shutdown conditions, and other pertinent control information will be reported on request from a master unit.

Program Mode Worksheets Introduction The program mode worksheets provide a step-by-step guide for programming the Peak® 150 control. You may copy or print out the worksheet for your use. To program the Peak 150 control, a hand-held programmer must be used (see Chapter 7, Programming for information on this unit and its use). WARNING—EXPLOSION HAZARD The Peak 150 control box should not be opened when a hazardous atmosphere is present. Wiring connections which could cause sparks are exposed inside the cabinet. WARNING—OVERSPEED PROTECTION Errors in configuration or programming of the Peak 150 control may create dangerous overspeed conditions. The turbine must be equipped with an overspeed device completely separate from the Peak 150 control or actuators attached to the Peak 150 control. The turbine must never be run when this device is not present or not operating correctly. WARNING—SAVE SET POINTS To prevent damage to the turbine resulting from improper control settings, make sure you save the set points before removing power. Failure to save the set points before removing power causes them to revert to the previously saved settings. Dangerous conditions such as turbine overspeed may result from operating the turbine with incorrect settings, possibly resulting in equipment damage and injury or death of personnel. CAUTION—DO NOT START TURBINE Do NOT attempt to operate the turbine until the Peak 150 control has been programmed. To do so could cause equipment damage; the turbine will start, come up to idle speed, trip and shutdown.

Surge is defined as the operating point at which centrifugal compressor peak head capability and minimum flow limits are reached. Actually, the working principle of a centrifugal compressor is increasing the kinetic energy of the fluid with a rotating impeller. The fluid is then slowed down in a volume called the plenum, where the kinetic energy is converted into potential energy in form of a pressure-rise. When the plenum pressure behind the compressor is higher than the compressor outlet pressure, the fluid tends to reverse or even flow back in the compressor. As a consequence, the plenum pressure will decrease, inlet pressure will increase and the flow reverses again. This phenomenon, called surge, repeats and occurs in cycles with frequencies varying from 1 to 2 Hz. So, the compressor loses the ability to maintain the peak head when surge occurs and the entire system becomes unstable. A collection of surge points during varying compressor speed or varying inlet gas angle is fitted as surge line. In normal conditions, the compressor operates in the right side of the surge line. However, during startup/emergency shutdown, the operating point will move towards the surge line because flow is reduced. If conditions are such that the operating point approaches the surge line, flow recirculation occurs in the impeller and diffuser (Figure 1). The flow separation will eventually cause a decrease in the discharge pressure, and flow from suction to discharge will resume. Surging can cause the compressor to overheat to the point at which the maximum allowable temperature of the unit is exceeded. Also, surging can cause damage to the thrust bearing Page 1 of 6 due to the rotor shifting back and forth from the active to the inactive side. This is defined as the surge cycle of the compressor. Anti-Surge Control Systems These systems detect when a process compression stage is approaching to surge and subsequently take action to reverse the movement of the operating point towards the surge line (SL). This decreases the plenum pressure and increases the flow through the compressor, resulting in stable working conditions. It is normally achieved by opening a control valve in a recycle line (Anti-Surge Control Valve or ASCV), returning the discharge gas to the inlet of the compressor via a suction cooler. The resulting increase in compressor inlet volume flow moves the operating point away from surge. Figure 2: Surge Protection Definitions Due to inaccuracies in measurements and response times of transmitters and valves, Anti-surge control achieves a surge control line (SCL) parallel to the surge limit line. The control line is offset to the right of the surge line by a margin; typically equal to 3- 10% of inlet volume flow at surge (Figure 2). However, a lower margin is also desirable because higher efficiency could be obtained by closing the recycle valve. In real operation, compressor performance curves in the coordinate system are unique for constant given suction conditions. This means that the variation of inlet conditions leads to changing compressor performance curves. On the other hand, since inlet temperature decreases, inlet molecular weight increases or inlet pressure increases, the differential pressure across measuring device would go up for the same inlet capacity. So for the purposes of control, new coordinate system is used which must be invariant (or independent) to changes in inlet conditions. Therefore, the effects of inlet temperature, gas molecular weight and compressibility factor are not required to be considered in the controlling Figure 3: Compressor Map system. In this regard, several invariant coordinates are obtained by compressor manufacturer. They use dimensional analysis for the generation of these invariant Page 2 of 6 systems (or compressor map). The two most important systems are: 1) Compressor polytropic head (or differential pressure) versus square of flow rate in suction and 2) Pressure ratio versus square of flow rate in suction. Flow through the compressor suction is equivalent to the pressure drop in orifice or venturi installed at the inlet or outlet of compressor. Thus, pressure loss in orifice or venturi can be calibrated as a function of compressor flow rate. A compressor map is illustrated by superimposing both performance and system resistance curves independent of rotational speed (Figure 3). For compressors with inlet guide vanes, compressor map is represented by a new family of curves that do not depend on suction conditions either. This additional coordinate could be a function of either guide vane position or equivalent rotational speed. Anti-Surge Controller System And Algorithms Proportional–integral (PI) and proportional–integral–derivative (PID) are two major control algorithms which are used to control imperfectly known compression systems. The basic procedure of these algorithms is that the controller output should be a function of the difference (Error, e) between two values which should be controlled (process variable, PV) and its set point (SP) (Figure 4). When operating in the stable region at the right-hand side of the SP-line, where the error, e, is positive, the controller output is forced to be zero and integrators should be reset to avoid wind- up. As the flow decreases due to a disturbance, PV decreases as well and — at a certain point — where PV< SP, the error, e, becomes negative. Here, the controller comes into action opening the anti-surge valve. This action pushes the PV back to the stable region at the right-hand side of the Figure 4: Compressor Controller Schematic SP-line. Moreover, small disturbances should not lead to big reactions. But a fast and resolute opening of the valve is required when the control line is exceeded in the direction of the surge limit. Therefore, the controller has a nonlinear gain behavior when the controller deviation (PV-SP) is negative. Earlier matter about nonlinear gain controller leads to considering derivation term in logic control of system. Actually, effect of the derivative (D-action) term is that it often allows the control response to be accelerated without increasing the risk of instability, because it is a measure how fast the system is responding and action will tend to counter the oscillatory action. However, it will also make the system more sensitive to signal noise. Thus, the simpler PI algorithm is sometimes more useful than full PID control. But it (PI) is limited in speed of its response and is unable to take the machine out of surge in the event that the operating point crosses the surge line.
