Terminal Board Terminal Block Features

Many of the terminal boards in the Mark VI use a 24-position pluggable barrier terminal block (179C9123BB). These terminal blocks have the following features:

• Made from a polyester resin material with 130°C (266 °F) rating • Terminal rating is 300 V, 10 A, UL class C general industry, 0.375 in creepage,

0.250 in strike • UL and CSA code approved • Screws finished in zinc clear chromate and contacts in tin • Each block screw is number labeled 1 through 24 or 25 through 48 in white • Recommended screw tightening torque is 8 in lbs

Terminal Board Disconnect Switch (TBSW)

The Mark VI Terminal Board Disconnect Switch (TBSW) provides an individual disconnect switch for each of the 48 customer I/O points on Mark VI terminal boards in the following figure. This facilitates such procedures as continuity checking, isolation for test, and others. Two TBSW assemblies are required for each terminal board, one numbered 1-24, the other numbered 25-48 (GE part numbers 336A4940CHG1 and 336A4940CHG2 respectively). The TBSW fits and connects into the terminal boards’ 24-point pluggable barrier terminal block receptacles.

The TBSW is designed for continuous 5 A rms current at 300 V rms and complies with EN61010-1 clearance specifications. The NEMA power/voltage class rating (A, E, F, G) for the TBSW is dependant on the terminal board the TBSW is mounted upon see the following table.

Top View Front View Side View TBSW Mounted to Terminal Block

Page 13: Geh-6421_vol_ii Mk Vi System Guide

GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II I/O Overview • 7

The TBSW is not to be used for live circuit interruption. The circuit must be de-energized before the circuit is either closed or opened by the TBSW.

TBSW/Terminal Board Applications Summary

In the following table lists the TBSW/terminal board applications for the Mark VI. An OK indicated in the TBSW applications column indicates an approved application of the TBSW for terminal board specifications for voltage and current. Those board points that require limiting the terminal boards application are indicated with a note number (corresponding notes follow the table).

Table Notes:

1. The inputs on the TICI and TRLY boards are high voltage isolated inputs. The TBSW is classified by CSA for use up to 300 V rms. Circuits applied to the TICI or TRLY terminal board with the TBSW installed must be externally limited to 300 V rms. Care must also be taken to assure that no adjacent circuits, that when both are operating, do not exceed 300 V rms between them.

2. NEMA ratings are given according to the power and voltage limiting abilities of the circuit. The TICI and TRLY terminal boards carry no components that are designed to limit voltage or current. For this reason, the TBSW application limitations for these two terminal boards will depend on the customer’s ability to install voltage and current limiting devices on the TBSW circuits according to NEMA guidelines. The following chart indicates the NEMA class and the voltage it must be limited too before it can be applied to the TBSW. Voltages are for circuit voltage, and circuit to adjacent circuit voltage.

3. The TRPG flame detectors require a 335 V dc circuit. The TBSW is classified by CSA and NEMA for use up to 300 V rms. Circuits applied to the TRPG terminal board flame detectors with the TBSW installed must be must be limited to 300 V rms, disallowing the use of the TBSW when the flame detectors are operational.

Simplex DIN-Rail Mounted Terminal Board Summary Speed control systems for small turbines require a simplified system architecture. Simplex control is used to reduce cost and save space. Compact DIN-rail mounted terminal boards are available instead of the larger T-type terminal boards used on TMR systems. IONet is not used since the D-type terminal boards cable directly into the control chassis to interface with the I/O boards.

In the VME rack, a VCMI board provides two-way communication between the controller and the I/O processor boards. The controller Ethernet port is used to communicate with other system components, such as an operator interface or PLC. Additional PLC I/O can be tied into the system using the controller Genius port. A typical system is illustrated in the following figure. The system is powered by 24 V dc, and uses a low voltage version of the standard VME rack power supply.

The board designations and functions along with the corresponding I/O processor boards are listed in the following table. In all cases, the signal conditioning on the DIN-type terminal boards is the same as on the T-type boards, and the I/O specifications described apply. However, the number of inputs and outputs, and the grounding provisions differ, and the boards do not support TMR. Permanently mounted high-density Euro-Block terminal blocks are used to save space. The blocks have terminals accepting wire sizes up to one #12 wire, or two #14 wires. The typical wire size used is #18 AWG.

Grounding

During panel design, provisions for grounding the terminal board and wiring shields must be made. These connections should be as short as possible. A metal grounding strip can be firmly mounted to the panel on the right hand side of the terminal board. Shields and the SCOM connection can be conveniently made to this strip. Note that only the thermocouple board has screws for the shield wires.

The VME rack is grounded to the mounting panel by the metal-to-metal contact under the mounting screws. No wiring to the ground terminal is required. For more grounding information, refer to Volume I, Chapter 5.

GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II UCV Controller • 13

Controller Overview The Mark* VI UCV_ controller is a 6U high, single or double slot, single board computer (SBC) that operates the turbine application code. The controller mounts in a VME rack called the control module and communicates with the turbine I/O boards through the VME bus. The controller operating system is QNX®, a real time, multitasking OS designed for high-speed, high-reliability industrial applications. Three communication ports provide links to operator and engineering interfaces as follows:

• Ethernet connections to the UDH for communication with HMIs, and other control equipment

• RS-232C connection for setup using the COM1 port • RS-232C connection for communication with distributed control systems (DCS)

using the COM2 port (such as Modbus® slave)

Operation

The controller is loaded with software specific to its application to steam, gas, and land-marine aeroderivative (LM), or balance of plant (BOP) products. It can execute up to 100,000 rungs or blocks per second, assuming a typical collection of average size blocks. An external clock interrupt permits the controller to synchronize to the clock on the VCMI communication board to within ±100 microseconds.

External data is transferred to and from the control system database (CSDB) in the controller over the VME bus by the VCMI communication board. In a simplex system, the data consists of the process inputs and outputs from the I/O boards. In a TMR system, the data consists of the voted inputs from the input boards, singular inputs from simplex boards, computed outputs to be voted by the output hardware, and the internal state values that must be exchanged between the controllers.

Note Application software can be modified online without requiring a restart.

Controller Versions

Five controller versions are in use:

• The single-slot UCVE is the current generation controller used in most new systems.

• The double-slot UCVF is the high-end current generation controller used in only the systems that require it.

• The single-slot UCVG features performance between the UCVE and the UCVF and may be used as a direct replacement for any previous controller version without necessitating a backplane upgrade.

Note The double-slot UCVB and UCVD are no longer shipped with new systems, but are still in use in older systems.

UCV Controller

Page 20: Geh-6421_vol_ii Mk Vi System Guide

14 • UCV Controller GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II

The UCVE and UCVF may also be used to replace earlier revision controllers, but require a backplane upgrade. If replacing a UCVB, an Ethernet cabling upgrade from 10Base2 to 10Base-T is also required.

Diagnostics

If a failure occurs in the Mark VI controller while it is running application code, the rotating status LEDs (if supported) on the front panel stop and an internal fault code is generated.

If a failure occurs in the Mark VI controller, a diagnostic alarm is generated that can be read from the toolbox. In the UCVB and UCVD, these diagnostics are also encoded by flashing LEDs on the front panel. The error numbers and descriptions are available on the toolbox help screen. Additional information can also be obtained from the controller COM1 serial port. For further information, refer to GEH-6421, Vol. I Mark VI System Guide, Chapter 7, Troubleshooting and Diagnostics.

Installation

A control module contains (at a minimum) the controller and a VCMI. Three rack types can be used: the GE Fanuc integrator’s rack shown in the following figure and two sizes of Mark VI racks shown in the section, VCMI - Bus Master Controller. The GE Fanuc rack is shorter and is used for stand-alone modules with remote I/O only. The Mark VI racks are longer and can be used for local or remote I/O. Whichever rack is used, a cooling fan is mounted either above or below the controller. The stand-alone control module implemented with a GE Fanuc integrator’s rack also requires a VDSK board to supply fan power and provide the rack identification through an ID plug.

UCVG Controller The UCVG is a single-slot board using an Intel® Ultra Low Voltage Celeron™ 650 MHz processor with 128 MB of flash memory and 128 MB of SDRAM. Two 10BaseT/100BaseTX (RJ-45 connector) Ethernet ports provide connectivity. The first Ethernet port allows connectivity to the UDH for configuration and peer-to-peer communication.

The second Ethernet port is for use on a separate IP logical subnet and can be used for Modbus or private Ethernet Global Data (EGD) network. This Ethernet port is configured through the toolbox. The controller validates its toolbox configuration against the existing hardware each time the rack is powered up.

Note A separate subnet address allows the controller to uniquely identify an Ethernet port. IP subnet addresses are obtained from the Ethernet network administrator (for example, 192.168.1.0, 192.168.2.0).

GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II VAIC Analog Input/Output • 35

VAIC Analog Input/Output

Functional Description

The Analog Input/Output (VAIC) board accepts 20 analog inputs and controls 4 analog outputs. Each terminal board accepts 10 inputs and 2 outputs. Cables connect the terminal board to the VME rack where the VAIC processor board is located. VAIC converts the inputs to digital values and transfers them over the VME backplane to the VCMI board, and then to the controller. For outputs, the VAIC converts digital values to analog currents and drives these through the terminal board into the customer circuit.

VAIC supports both simplex and triple modular redundant (TMR) applications. When used in a TMR configuration, input signals on the terminal board are fanned out to three VME board racks R, S, and T, each containing a VAIC. Output signals are driven with a proprietary circuit that creates the desired current using all three VAICs. In the event of a hardware failure, the bad VAIC is removed from the output and the remaining two boards continue to produce the correct current. When used in a simplex configuration, the terminal board provides input signals to a single VAIC, which provides all of the current for outputs.

Compatibility

There are two generations of the VAIC board with corresponding terminal boards. The original VAIC includes all versions prior to and including VAICH1C. VAICH1B is included in this generation. When driving 20 mA outputs these boards support up to 500 Ω load resistance at the end of 1000 ft of #18 wire. This generation of board requires terminal board TBAIH1B or earlier for proper operation. They also work properly with all revisions of DTAI terminal boards.

The newest VAICH1D and any subsequent releases are designed to support higher load resistance for 20 mA outputs drive voltage: up to 18 V is available at the terminal board screw terminals. This permits operation into loads of 800 Ω with 1000 ft of #18 wire with margin. This generation of the board requires TBAIH1C or later, or any revision of STAI.

Operation

The VAIC board accepts 20 analog inputs, controls 4 analog outputs, and contains signal conditioning, an analog MUX, A/D converter, and D/A converter. The type of analog input, either voltage, 4-20 mA, or ±1 mA, is selected by jumpers on the terminal board. Two of the four analog output circuits are 4-20 mA and the other two can be configured for 4-20 mA or 0-200 mA. Inputs and outputs have noise suppression circuitry to protect against surge and high frequency noise.

The following table displays the analog I/O capacity of VAIC, using two TBAI terminal boards.

In a TMR system, analog inputs fan out to the three control racks from JR1, JS1, and JT1. The 24 V dc power to the transducers comes from all three VME racks and is diode OR selected on the terminal board. Each analog current output is fed by currents from all three VAICs. The actual output current is measured with a series resistor, which feeds a voltage back to each VAIC. The resulting output is the voted middle value (median) of the three currents. The following figure shows VAIC in a TMR arrangement.

Note With the noise suppression and filtering, the input ac common mode rejection (CMR) is 60 dB, and the dc CMR is 80 dB.

GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II VAIC Analog Input/Output • 39

Transmitters/transducers can be powered by the 24 V dc source in the control system, or can be powered independently. Diagnostics monitor each output and a suicide relay disconnects the corresponding output if a fault cannot be cleared by a command from the processor. Hardware filters on the terminal board suppress high frequency noise. Additional software filters on VAIC provide configurable low pass filtering.

Compressor Stall Detection

VAIC firmware includes gas turbine compressor stall detection, executed at 200 Hz. Two stall algorithms can be selected. Both use the first four analog inputs, scanned at 200 Hz. One algorithm is for small LM gas turbines and uses two pressure transducers (refer to the figure, Small (LM) Gas Turbine Compressor Stall Detection Algorithm). The other algorithm is for heavy-duty gas turbines and uses three pressure transducers (refer to the figure, Heavy Duty Gas Turbine Compressor Stall Detection Algorithm).

Real-time inputs are separated from the configured parameters for clarity. The parameter CompStalType selects the type of algorithm required, either two transducers or three. PS3 is the compressor discharge pressure. A drop in this pressure (PS3 drop) indicates possible compressor stall. The algorithm also calculates the rate of change of discharge pressure, dPS3dt, and compares these values with configured stall parameters (KPS3 constants).

The compressor stall trip is initiated by VAIC, which sends the signal to the controller where it is used to initiate a shutdown. The shutdown signal can be used to set all the fuel shut-off valves (FSOV) through any relay output.

Diagnostics

Three LEDs at the top of the VAIC front panel provide status information. The normal RUN condition is a flashing green, and FAIL is a solid red. The third LED displays STATUS and is normally off, but displays a steady orange if a diagnostic alarm condition exists in the board. Diagnostic checks include the following:

• Each analog input has hardware limit checking based on preset (non-configurable) high and low levels set near the ends of the operating range. If this limit is exceeded a logic signal is set and the input is no longer scanned. If any one of the input’s hardware limits is set, it creates a composite diagnostic alarm, L3DIAG_VAIC, which refers to the entire board. Details of the individual diagnostics are available from the toolbox. The diagnostic signals can be individually latched, and then reset with the RESET_DIA signal.

• Each input has system limit checking based on configurable high and low levels. These limits can be used to generate alarms, and can be configured for enable/disable, and as latching/non-latching. RESET_SYS resets the out of limits.

• In TMR systems, if one signal varies from the voted value (median value) by more than a predetermined limit, that signal is identified and a fault is created. This can provide early indication of a problem developing in one channel.

• Monitor D/A outputs, output currents, total current, suicide relays and 20/200 mA scaling relays; these are checked for reasonability and can create a fault.

• TBAI has its own ID device that is interrogated by VAIC. The board ID is coded into a read-only chip containing the terminal board serial number, board type, revision number, and the JR, JS, JT connector location. When the chip is read by the I/O processor and a mismatch is encountered, a hardware incompatibility fault is created.

TBAI Analog Input/Output

Functional Description The Analog Input/Output (TBAI) terminal board supports 10 analog inputs and 2 outputs. The 10 analog inputs accommodate two-wire, three-wire, four-wire, or externally powered transmitters. The analog outputs can be set up for 0-20 mA or 0-200 mA current. Inputs and outputs have noise suppression circuitry to protect against surge and high frequency noise.

TBAI has three DC-37 pin connectors provided on TBAI for connection to the I/O processors. Simplex applications are supported using a single connector (JR1). TMR applications are supported using all three connectors.

In TMR applications, the input signals are fanned to the three connectors for the R, S, and T controls. TMR outputs combine the current of the three connected output drivers and determine the total current with a measuring shunt. TBAI then presents the total current signal to the I/O processors for regulation to the commanded setpoint.

Mark VI Systems

In the Mark* VI system, TBAI works with VAIC processor and supports simplex and TMR applications. One or two TBAIs can be connected to the VAIC. In TMR systems, TBAI is cabled to three VAIC boards.

Mark VIe Systems

In the Mark VIe system, TBAI works with the PAIC I/O pack and supports simplex and TMR applications. In TMR systems, three PAICs plug directly into the TBAI.

Operation

TBAI provides a 24 V dc power source for all the transducers. The inputs can be configured as current or voltage inputs using jumpers (J#A and J#B). One of the two analog output circuits is 4-20 mA and the other can be configured as 4-20 mA or 0-200 mA. The following table displays the analog I/O capacity of TBAI.

8 ±10 V dc, or ±5 V dc, or 4-20 mA 1 0-20 mA or 0-200 mA 2 4-20 mA, or ±1 mA 1 0-20 mA

Note With the noise suppression and filtering, the input ac CMR is 60 dB, and the dc CMR is 80 dB.

Each 24 V dc power output is rated to deliver 21 mA continuously and is protected against operation into a short circuit. Transmitters/transducers can be powered by the 24 V dc source in the control system, or can be independently powered. Jumper JO selects the type of current output. Diagnostics monitor each output and a suicide relay in the I/O controller disconnects the corresponding output if a fault cannot be cleared by a command from the processor.

In a TMR system, analog inputs fan out to the three I/O controllers (VAIC or PAIC). The 24 V dc power to the transducers comes from all three controllers and is diode shared on TBAI. Each analog current output is fed by currents from all three controllers. The actual output current is measured with a series resistor, which feeds a voltage back to each I/O controller. The resulting output is the voted middle value (median) of the three currents. The following figure shows TBAI in a TMR system.

Check connector ID chip for hardware incompatibility Temperature -30 to 65ºC (-22 to +149 ºF) Size 10.16 cm wide x 33.02 cm high ( 4.0 in x 13 in)

Diagnostics

Diagnostic tests are made on the terminal board as follows:

• The board provides the voltage drop across a series resistor to indicate the output current. The I/O processor creates a diagnostic alarm (fault) if any one of the two outputs goes unhealthy.

• Each cable connector on the terminal board has its own ID device that is interrogated by the I/O controller. The ID device is a read-only chip coded with the terminal board serial number, board type, revision number, and the JR, JS, JT connector location. When this chip is read by the I/O controller and a mismatch is encountered, a hardware incompatibility fault is created.

Configuration

The terminal board is configured by jumpers. For the location of these jumpers, refer to the installation diagram. The jumper choices are as follows:

• Jumpers J1A through J8A select either current input or voltage input. • Jumpers J1B through J8B select whether the return is connected to common or

is left open. • Jumpers J9A and J10A select either 1 mA or 20 mA input current. • Jumpers J9B and J10B select whether the return is connected to common or is

left open. • Jumper J0 sets output 1 to either 20 mA or 200 mA.

DTAI Simplex Analog Input/Output

Functional Description

The Simplex Analog Input/Output (DTAI) terminal board is a compact analog input terminal board designed for DIN-rail mounting. The board has 10 analog inputs and 2 analog outputs and connects to the VAIC processor board with a single cable. This cable is identical to those used on the larger TBAI terminal board. The terminal boards can be stacked vertically on the DIN-rail to conserve cabinet space.

The 10 analog inputs accommodate two-wire, three-wire, four-wire, or externally powered transmitters. The two analog outputs are 0-20 mA, but one can be jumper configured to a 0-200 mA current. Two DTAI boards can be connected to VAIC for a total of 20 analog inputs and 4 analog outputs. Only a simplex version of the board is available.

The functions and on-board noise suppression are the same as those on the TBAI. High-density euro-block type terminal blocks are permanently mounted to the board, with two screw connections for the ground connection (SCOM). An on-board ID chip identifies the board to the VAIC for system diagnostic purposes.

Installation

Mount the plastic holder on the DIN-rail and slide the DTAI board into place. Connect the RTD wires directly to the terminal block. The Euro-block type terminal block has 48 terminals and is permanently mounted on the board. Typically, #18 AWG wires (shielded twisted pair) are used. Two screws, 43 and 44, are provided for the SCOM (ground) connection, which should be as short a distance as possible.

Note There is no shield terminal strip with this design.

DTAI accommodates the following analog I/O types:

• Analog input, two-wire transmitter • Analog input, three-wire transmitter • Analog input, four-wire transmitter • Analog input, externally powered transmitter • Analog input, voltage ±5 V, ±10 V dc • Analog output, 0-20 mA current • Analog output, 0-200 mA current • Wiring, jumper positions, and cable connections appear on the wiring diagram

Note SCOM, terminal 43, must be connected to chassis ground.

GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II VAMA Acoustic Monitoring • 59

VAMA Acoustic Monitoring

Functional Description

The Acoustic Monitoring (VAMA) board monitors acoustic or pressure waves in the turbine combustion chamber. Inputs are wired to the DIN-rail mounted DDPT terminal board. DDPT supports the simplex mode only and connects to VAMA through the J3 connector on the VME rack where VAMA is located.

The VAMA/DDPT meets environment rating for hazardous gases of Class I, Division 2 and provides suppression at all points of signal entry or exit. Each cable has a unique ID chip. The VAMA provides two point calibration, based on a reference offset and gain signal.

Gas turbine combustion chambers can experience pressure oscillations that cause noise in the audible hearing range. The H1A version of the VAMA offers signal conditioning and software that allows the turbine control to monitor the pressure/acoustic waves by reading the conditioned signals from a dynamic pressure transducer. The VAMA provides two channels to read the pressure/acoustic wave signals from third party equipment from Vibro-Meter® or Bently-Nevada*. VAMA provides two dedicated signal conditioning paths to remove the dc component of the signal, modify the gain, and provide an eighth order or better low-pass filter for anti-aliasing.

Installation

To install the V-type board

1 Power down the VME processor rack.

2 Slide in the board and push the top and bottom levers in with your hands to seat its edge connectors.

3 Tighten the captive screws at the top and bottom of the front panel. These screws serve to hold the board firmly in place and enhance the board front ground integrity. The screws should not be used to actually seat the board.

Note Cable connections to the terminal board are made at the J3 connector on the lower portion of the VME rack, and the J5 connector on the front of the board. These are latching type connectors to secure the cables. Power up the VME rack and check the diagnostic lights at the top of the front panel. For details, refer to Diagnostics section in this document.

It may be necessary to update the VAMA firmware to the latest level. For instructions, refer to GEH-6403, Control System Toolbox for Configuring the Mark VI Turbine Controller.

Operation

Pressure/Acoustic Wave Signal Conditioning

VAMA provides signal conditioning for two pressure/acoustic wave inputs and can supply either ±24 V dc to power the pressure sensing equipment. VAMA supports the following third party vendor equipment:

• Vibro-Meter Galvanic Separation Unit types GSI 1_ _ • Bently-Nevada 86517 with modifications 142533 or 159840 charge amplifier • Bently-Nevada dynamic pressure charge amplifier 350500

Note The Vibro-Meter GSI 1_ _ unit prevents problems due to voltage differences between the measuring point and signal processing (such as ground loops).

The Vibro-Meter setup conditions a pico-coulomb output from a dynamic pressure transducer (Vibro-Meter CP216 or CP231) through a charge amplifier (Vibro-Meter IPC 704) with a current output representing approximately 125 µA/psi. The GSI unit outputs an ac signal (approx. ±2 V peak) that represents the dynamic pressure (gain expressed in mV/psi ) riding on top of a dc bias voltage of approximately +7 V dc. The Vibro-Meter GSI unit requires a +24 V dc power supply. Normally, the power supply return for the GSI is grounded externally and the PCOM on the terminal board is not used. PCOM should only be used when the external return ground is not used.

The Bently-Nevada 86517 interface module converts the dynamic pressure transducer charge signal from pico-coulombs to milli-volts, which represents the pressure in psi. The interface module outputs ac signal (approx. ±1.2 V peak) riding on top of a negative dc bias voltage of approximately -10 V dc. The Bently-Nevada unit requires a -24 V dc power supply.

VAMA/DDPT Vendor Equipment Power Supply Specifications

Vendor Power Supply Nominal Voltage Nominal Current

Vibro-Meter Positive 24 V dc +24 V dc (±5%) 0.04 A (±0.02 A) Bently-Nevada Negative 24 V dc -24 V dc (±5%) 0.02 A (±0.01 A)

The pressure/acoustic signal is read differentially by connecting the DDPT inputs, Pressure Wave Channel A High (ASIG) and Pressure Wave Channel A Low (ARET). Voltage clamping and high frequency suppression is applied on the DDPT before the signal is routed to the VAMA through the 37-pin cable to the J3 connector on the VME rack. The jumpers, JP1A/B and JP2A/B, are used to add a bias corresponding to the dc bias provided by the third party interface unit to detect open circuit conditions.

Therefore, a +28 V dc bias is added for the Vibro-Meter connection and a -28 V dc bias is added for the Bently-Nevada system. The DDPT pressure wave outputs are ASIG/ARET for the output pair for channel A, and BSIG/BRET for the output pair for channel B.

Signal Conditioning for Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) Input

Note The FFT signal conditioning provides open-wire detection circuitry and any dc bias monitoring circuitry, if needed. The output from channel A and channel B feeds into a high-speed multiplexed A/D section.

Page 67: Geh-6421_vol_ii Mk Vi System Guide

GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II VAMA Acoustic Monitoring • 61

VAMA provides differential inputs for both channel A and B pressure wave signals. The signal conditioning includes a high pass filter, gain adjustment, and a low pass filter with adjustable break frequencies. The high-pass filter is a single pole filter (6 dB/octave) with a break at 1.5 Hz. The gain block provides two gain options, 2.25 or 4.5 V/V. The low pass filter is an eight-pole (48 dB/octave) Butterworth filter with three selectable break frequencies, 600, 1000, and 3600 Hz. The gain options and the low-pass filter break frequency adjustments are selectable through software.

Signal Conditioning for the RMS Circuit

VAMA provides an RMS rectifier circuit for both channel A and channel B pressure waves. Each circuit includes a high pass filter, a low pass filter, and the RMS detector. The band-pass filters are 260 to 970 Hz , before the detector and the RMS detector. The input signal range is from 0 to 10 psi peak-to-peak, which is represented by an ac signal with the scaling of 0.1 V/psi. The rms detector output from channel A and channel B feeds into a multiplexed A/D section.

62 • VAMA Acoustic Monitoring GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II

BNC Signal Conditioning

VAMA provides a buffered signal conditioning circuit for each BNC output on the DDPT terminal board. The BNC buffered circuit takes its input from the ac pressure wave input without the dc bias signal. The gain of the buffer is 1. The signal for the buffered BNC output ranges from 0 to 40 psi peak-to-peak, which is represented by an ac signal with the scaling of 0.1 V/psi.

Pressure/Acoustic Wave FFT Algorithms

The firmware performs a spectral analysis of the pressure wave to determine the spectral components with the largest magnitude and the frequency associated with each magnitude. The local sort function sorts the three largest magnitudes for a given frequency band. The FFT algorithm supports three frequency bands.

Note The magnitude and frequency information for each spectral component that meets the criteria of the sorts is stored in Signal Space for the VAMA memory space.

Discontinuities at the beginning and end of the 8192 collected data points of the pressure wave produce high frequency components that alias down into the spectrum of interest. Using a Windowing function on the data attenuates the high frequency components. The user can select from seven different windowing functions that affect spectral content of these high frequency components. An FFT is performed on the windowed data to determine the spectral component’s magnitude and the frequency associated with it. A Global Sort function ranks the spectral components from the largest in magnitude to the smallest. Then a Local Sort function selects the three largest magnitudes and their associated frequencies for a frequency band defined by the user.

The composite pressure wave signal that includes both the ac and dc offset component of the signal is read by the slow A/D on VAMA. Firmware monitors this signal to perform continuity and out of range checks. The pressure wave has a normal operating range of ±1 psi with the trip level set at 2 psi. The FFT magnitude is significantly attenuated when spectral content is off the bin center. Attenuation factor (approx. 0.6 to 0.9) is determined by the Windowing technique used.

Functions

Windowing Function

The Windowing function provides a way to reduce the false spectral components caused by the beginning and ending points of the 8192 data points collected. The discontinuities caused by the end point data produces high frequency components that alias down into the frequency spectrum of interest. Each windowing function affects the magnitude and spectral leakage. Seven windowing techniques are provided, as follows:

• Rectangular • Hamming • Hanning • Triangular • Blackman • Blackman-Harris • Flat Top

The configuration constant, WindowSelect, is the window select control for both channel A and channel B pressure waves. The configuration constant, BinReject, determines the number of side bins rejected from a spectral peak found in the FFT analysis. BinReject controls the number of side bins removed from the FFT analysis for both channel A and B. An FFT is performed on the windowed data to determine the spectral content of the pressure wave. The power is calculated for each FFT element and the magnitude and frequency are calculated from the power. The windowing type and the associated sideband rejection are shown in the following table.

Windowing Selections and Parameters

Selection Function Rejected Sidebands (Default)

1 Rectangular 3 2 Hamming 3 3 Hanning 3 4 Triangular 3 5 Blackman 3 6 Blackman-Harris 3 7 Flat Top 4

Sort Function The Sort function tests for the three largest FFT element magnitudes in a user specified frequency band. The user can specify up to three frequency bands with three magnitudes and associated frequency for each stored in signal space.

The following table defines the user defined configuration constants, FminFrqbandx and FmaxFrqbandx, that are supported by the Sort function. The firmware provides separate scaling for channel A and B and defines the transfer function from two given points.

Diagnostics

Three LEDs at the top of the VAMA front panel provide status information. The normal RUN condition is a flashing green, FAIL is a solid red. The third LED is STATUS and is normally off but shows a steady orange if a diagnostic alarm condition exists in the board.

VAMA runs continuous diagnostic tests on the signals and hardware. Variables checked include transducer open wire, DAC bias voltage, differential amplifier output voltage, FFT ac gain corrections, FFT LPF, gain and frequency settings, FFT and RMS frequency ranges, gain and frequency settings, and FFT A/D bit integrity (peak bin counts). If any of these go outside of configured limits, VAMA creates a fault. Refer to the Alarms section for a complete list of faults (diagnostic alarms).

Configuration

Like all I/O boards, VAMA is configured using the toolbox. This software usually runs on a data-highway connected CIMPLICITY® station or workstation. The following tables summarize the configuration choices and defaults. For details, refer to GEH-6403, Control System Toolbox for the Mark VI Turbine Controller.

DDPT Simplex Dynamic Pressure Transducer Input

Functional Description

The Simplex Dynamic Pressure Transducer Input (DDPT) terminal board is a compact acoustic terminal board for DIN-rail mounting. The board accepts two pressure transducers for monitoring pressure waves in gas turbine combustion chambers, using either Vibro-Meter® or Bently Nevada* transducers. It connects to the VAMA with two cables, and is designed to meet Class 1, Division 2 environmental requirements for hazardous gases.

Note DDPT is only available in a simplex version.

Installation

Mount the plastic holder on the DIN-rail and slide the DDPT board into place. Connect the wires for the pressure transducers to the permanently mounted Euro-Block type terminal block, which has 42 terminals. Typically #18 AWG shielded twisted triplet wiring is used. Ten screws are provided for the SCOM (ground) connection.

Page 80: Geh-6421_vol_ii Mk Vi System Guide

74 • VAMA Acoustic Monitoring GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II

Connect cables from the DDPT JR1 connector to the VAMA J3 connector on the lower portion of the VME rack, and from DDPT JR5 connector to the J5 connector on the front panel of the VAMA. These are latching type connectors to secure the cables.

GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II VAMA Acoustic Monitoring • 75

Operation

VAMA supplies a ±24 V dc to the DDPT to power the pressure sensing equipment. VAMA/DDPT supports the following third party vendor equipment:

• Vibro-Meter Galvanic Separation Unit types GSI 1_ • Bently-Nevada 86517 with modifications 142533 or 159840 charge amplifier • Bently-Nevada dynamic pressure charge amplifier 350500.

Note The Vibro-Meter GSI 1_ _ unit prevents problems due to voltage differences between the measuring point and signal processing (such as ground loops).

The Vibro-Meter GSI setup conditions a pico-coulomb output from a dynamic pressure transducer (Vibro-Meter CP216 or CP231) through a charge amplifier (Vibro-Meter IPC 704) with a current output representing approximately 125 µA/psi. The GSI unit provides an output ac signal (approx. ±2 V peak) that represents the dynamic pressure (gain expressed in mV/psi ) riding on top of a dc bias voltage of approximately +7 V dc. The GSI unit requires a +24 V dc power supply. Normally, the power supply return for the GSI is grounded externally and the PCOM on the terminal board is not used. PCOM should only be used when the external return ground is not used.

The Bently-Nevada 86517 interface module converts the dynamic pressure transducer charge signal from pico-coulombs to milli-volts which represents the pressure in psi. The interface module outputs an ac signal (approx. ±1.2 V peak) riding on top of a negative dc bias voltage of approximately –10 V dc. The Bently-Nevada unit requires a -24 V dc power supply.

DDPT Vendor Equipment Power Supply Specifications

Vendor Power Supply Nominal Voltage Nominal Current

Vibro-Meter Positive 24 V dc +24 V dc (±5%) 0.04 A (±0.02 A) Bently-Nevada Negative 24 V dc -24 V dc (±5%) 0.02 A (±0.01 A)

The pressure/acoustic signal is read differentially by connecting Pressure Wave Channel A High (ASIG) and Pressure Wave Channel A Low (ARET) to the DDPT inputs. Voltage clamping and high frequency suppression is applied on the DDPT before the signal is routed to VAMA.

The jumpers, JPA and JPB, are used to add a bias corresponding to the dc bias provided by the third party interface unit to detect open circuit conditions. Therefore, a +28 V dc bias is added for the Vibro-Meter connection and a -28 V dc bias is added for the Bently-Nevada system. The DDPT board pressure wave outputs are ASIG/ARET for the output pair for channel A and BSIG/BRET for the output pair for channel B.

VAMA provides a buffered signal conditioning circuit for each BNC output on the DDPT terminal board. The BNC buffered circuit takes its input from the ac pressure wave input without the dc bias signal. The gain of the buffer is 1. The signal for the buffered BNC output ranges from 0 to 40 psi peak-to-peak, which is represented by an ac signal with the scaling of 0.1 V/psi.

Diagnostics

VAMA runs continuous diagnostic tests on the signals and hardware. Conditions such as open-wire on the transducers is checked. If any signals go outside of configured limits, VAMA creates a fault. The cable connectors on DDPT have their own ID device that is interrogated by VAMA. The ID device is a read-only chip coded with the terminal board serial number, board type, and revision number. If a mismatch is encountered, a hardware incompatibility fault is created.

Configuration

Two jumpers set the bias voltage for the transducers, and two jumpers set the power return from the transducers:

• JPA and JPB apply either a +28 V bias or –28 V bias to the transducer signals. • JP2 and JP4 connect the transducer power return to PCOM or to Open.

Refer to the Installation and Operation sections for further details.

System Overview

VAMB Acoustic Monitoring Input

Page 86: Geh-6421_vol_ii Mk Vi System Guide

80 • VAMB Acoustic Monitoring Input GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II

The selected product combination determines the system requirements as follows:

• 18 channels of signal conditioning for sensing dynamic pressure output from third party charge amplifiers

– Bentley-Nevada, Vibro-meter, PCB Piezotronics®, GE PS CCSA and GE/Reuter-Stokes vendors are supported

– Differential inputs and adjustable gains

– Fast synchronous-sampled analog/digital with 8x over-sampling capability to minimize analog filtering

– Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) pre-processor with Finite Impulse Response (FIR) filters

– Open wire detection

• Analysis capability per channel

– Proprietary functions

– RMS value for the ac input signal

– Alarm detection if peak amplitude exceeds configurable level

– List captures capability for all 18-channels if an alarm is detected

The acoustic monitoring function for the frame 6, 7, or 9 size gas turbines is supported by the VAMB and either one or two TAMB terminal boards. The TAMB receives an mV output from the CCSA or a third party charge amplifier. Power for the charge amplifier is supplied by the TAMB using a current limited +24V or -24V supply or from an external source. Other than electro-magnetic transient suppression, the differential input signal is routed directly to the VAMB through a cable with 18 twisted-pairs to the Versa Module Eurocard (VME) card front edge.

Installation

Note A GE field service technician should install the VAMB. Technicians should refer to GII-100014, VAMB Acoustic Monitoring Module, for complete installation instructions.

The figure TAMB Acoustic Monitoring Terminal Board shows the functionality of one of the nine channels supported on the TAMB. Each channel provides current limited +24 V dc and +24 V dc power supply outputs. A constant current source is connected to the SIGx line for the PCB sensors. The input signal, CCSELx, is False when the signal is a logic-level low through an output on the VAMB. At power-up, the output must be False (logic-level low), leaving the constant current output deselected until the configuration parameters are loaded.

Each channel provides a hardware jumper, JPx, where x equals an even number, which selects a current input, I_IN, or a voltage input, V_IN. The current input provides a 250 W burden resistor for any 4-20 mA circuits connected to that channel.

Page 87: Geh-6421_vol_ii Mk Vi System Guide

GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II VAMB Acoustic Monitoring Input • 81

Each channel has a jumper, JPx, where x equals an odd number, which checks whether the return line, RETx, is tied to the terminal board’s power common, PCOM. If JPx= PCOM, then the RETx line is tied to PCOM. If JPx= OPEN, then the RETx line is not tied to PCOM.

A high impedance dc bias allows the VAMB to detect an open connection between the charge amplifier or sensor and the TAMB. The dc bias control provides three options:

• 28 V bias or ground applied to the signal line • SIGx and return line • RETx

These inputs are activated or the signal select is True if the Mark* VI I/O board outputs a logic-level low signal from the TTL output. The table shows the selections:

BIASxP BIASxN SIGx/RETx Biased to

True True Illegal combination. Bias circuit protects power supplies from shorting

True False +28 V bias selected False True -28 V bias selected False False No bias selected, but both SIGx and RETx are pulled to

ground to keep the unused input electrically quiet.

The sensor or charge amplifier signal output is connected to the terminal board point, SIGx, and the Kelvin or low-current return is connected to RETx. The terminal board provides signal suppression and EMI protection and passes the signal on to the VAMB through a 37-pin connector.

Each channel provides a buffered BNC output. The buffered signal is the input signal minus the dc bias.

Operation

The VAMB software features include:

• 18 channels of acoustic monitoring with – Synchronous sampling of all 18 channels of data – Configuration of TAMB terminal board controlling open circuit test

voltage and constant current mode – A/D gain and offset adjustment – Dc bias removal from dynamic pressure signal to maximize SNR – Proprietary firmware functions – RMS calculation of the sampled AC signal data.

Milli-volt to engineering unit's conversion of RMS value

• Configuration constants can be changed through Mark VI toolbox • 40 ms frame rate updates for signal space variables used by the application

software • Offline and online diagnostics to check the hardware

A/D Compensation

The A/D compensation function nulls any gain or offset error due to initial component variances. The firmware has an auto-calibration function built in for the A/Ds it controls. The auto-calibration function compares each of the 18 analog channels against a gold standard A/D channel. The gold standard A/D channel is calibrated using a standard high-precision voltage reference and the A/D common.

Note Refer to the figure, Channel x Acoustic Monitoring Block Diagram, where x equals 1-18.

Input Units to Engineering Value Conversion

The Acoustic Monitoring function provides a conversion from the hardware input units to the engineering units needed for the system calculation. For the mV to psi conversion, the range is 20 to 600 mV per psi. The firmware will be given four configuration parameters per channel to define the equation for the transfer function.

Value (engineering units in counts) = GUnitConversion * Input (milli-volts in counts) + Offset

where

GUnitConversion = (High_Value – Low_Value) / (High_Input – Low_Input)

Offset = High_Value - GUnitConversion * High_Input

where High_Value, Low_Value, High_Input + Low Input are the configuration parameters.

Page 93: Geh-6421_vol_ii Mk Vi System Guide

GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II VAMB Acoustic Monitoring Input • 87

A/D Gain Adjust

The configuration parameter, Gain defined for each channel controls the channel gain in the hardware. This allows for the amplification of low level signals to provide better resolution in the analog to digital conversion hardware. The gain options are 1, 2, 4 and 8. The channel control writes the gain set up to the FPGA VSPA input amplifier 4x and 2x gain control registers. The signal level calculated by the VAMB firmware will not change with a change in the Gain parameter because the signal is divided by the Gain factor in the firmware to result in a net gain of 1 for the signal regardless of the gain factor used. The maximum expected signal level should not exceed 10 V (saturation) after the gain is applied as indicated in the following table.

Rules for selecting proper value for Gain

Gainx

Maximum magnitude of input signal after dc bias is removed (volts)

1 10 2 5 4 2.5 8 1.25

Rms Calculation and Rolling Average

The root-mean-square (rms) calculation performs an rms calculation on the ac acoustic information sampled for a given scan. The rms is defined as follows:

rms_Chx = SQRT ( (AC_Input(0)**2 + AC_Input(1)**2 + … + AC_Input(Buffer_Length)**2) / Buffer_Length)

Where x is the channel number.

The rolling average provides a smoothing function to reduce the vibration in the signal.

Diagnostics

Three LEDs at the top of the VAMB front panel provide status information. The normal RUN condition is a flashing green, and FAIL is a solid red. The third LED is normally off but displays a steady orange if a diagnostic alarm exists in the board.

Each input has system limit checking based on two configurable levels. These limits can be configured for enable/disable, >= or <=, and as latching/nonlatching. RESET_SYS resets the out of limits. If this limit is exceeded a system limit logic signal is set.

Each input has sensor limit checking, open circuit detection, and dc bias autonulling and excessive dc bias detection. Alarms will be generated for these diagnostics. Refer to I/O Board Alarms and Point Configuration. RESET_SYS resets these alarms.

The TAMB terminal board has its own ID device, which is interrogated by the I/O board. The board is coded into a read-only chip containing the terminal board serial number, board type, revision number, and the JR, JS, JT connector location. This ID is checked as part of the power-up diagnostics.

GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II VAOC Analog Output • 97

VAOC Analog Output

Functional Description The Analog Output (VAOC) board controls 16 analog, 20 mA outputs. Outputs are wired to analog output terminal board(s) (TBAO or DTAO). Cables with molded plugs connect the terminal board to the VME rack where the VAOC processor board is located. VAOC receives digital values from the controller over the VME backplane from the VCMI, converts these to analog output currents, and sends them to the terminal board. The actual output current is measured on the terminal board and fed back to VAOC where it is controlled.

In triple modular redundant (TMR) applications, control signals are fanned to the same terminal board from three VME board racks R, S, and T, as shown in the following figure. Six cables are required to support all 16 outputs. Each final current output is the median selection of the three currents in the three VAOCs. This median select circuit is in each VAOC.

Compatibility

There are two generations of the VAOC board with corresponding terminal boards. The original VAOC includes all versions prior to and including VAOCH1B. When driving 20 mA outputs, these boards support up to a 500 Ω load resistance at the end of 1000 ft (304.8 m) of #18 wire. This generation requires terminal board TBAOH1B or earlier for proper operation, or any revision of DTAI.

The newest VAOC board, VAOCH1C, and any subsequent releases, support higher load resistance on the first eight output circuits. For 20 mA outputs, a drive voltage up to 18 V is available at the terminal board screw terminals. This permits operation with a 800 Ω load resistance with 1000 ft (304.8 m) of #18 wire with margin. The second set of eight output circuits retains the 500 Ω rating of the original VAOC. VAOCH1C requires TBAOH1C or later.

Installation

To install the V-type board

1 Power down the VME I/O processor rack

2 Slide in the board and push the top and bottom levers in with your hands to seat its edge connectors

3 Tighten the captive screws at the top and bottom of the front panel

4 Power up the VME rack and check the diagnostic lights at the top of the front panel

Note Cable connections to the terminal boards are made at the J3 and J4 connectors on the lower portion of the VME rack. These are latching type connectors to secure the cables.

Operation

VAOC supports 16 analog 0-20 mA outputs. The VAOC contains the D/A converter and driver that generates the controlled currents, as shown in the following figure. The output current is measured by the voltage drop across a resistor on the terminal board. Terminal board outputs have noise suppression circuitry to protect against surge and high frequency noise. The following figure shows VAOC circuitry in a simplex arrangement.

Analog Output Current Circuits, Simplex System

In a TMR system, each analog current output is fed by the sum of the currents from the three VAOCs. The total output current is measured with a series resistor that feeds a voltage back to each VAOC. The resulting output is the voted middle value (median) of the three currents. If one output fails, the other two pick up the current to the correct value. In the event of a circuit malfunction that cannot be cleared by a command from the processor, the circuit is disconnected by opening the shutdown relay contacts. This isolation function is only operational when configured for TMR operation.

Diagnostics

Three LEDs at the top of the I/O board front panel provide status information. The normal RUN condition is a flashing green, and FAIL is a solid red. The third LED shows STATUS and is normally off but displays a steady orange if a diagnostic alarm condition exists in the board. The diagnostics include the following:

• Each output is monitored by diagnostics. Voltage drops across the local and outer loop current sense resistors, the D/A outputs, and at the shutdown relay contacts are sampled and digitized.

• Standard diagnostic information is available on the outputs, including high and low limit checks, and high and low system limit checks (configurable). If any one of the outputs goes unhealthy a composite diagnostic alarm, L3DIAG_xxxx, occurs. Details of the individual diagnostics are available from the toolbox. The diagnostic signals can be individually latched, and then reset with the RESET_DIA signal if they go healthy.

• Each cable connector on the terminal board has its own ID device that is interrogated by the I/O processor. The ID device is a read-only chip coded with the terminal board serial number, board type, revision number, and the JR, JS, and JT connector location. When the ID chip is read by the I/O processor and a mismatch is encountered, a hardware incompatibility fault is created.

TBAO Analog Output

Functional Description

The Analog Output (TBAO) terminal board supports 16 analog outputs with a current range of 0-20 mA. Current outputs are generated by the I/O processor, which can be local (Mark* VIe control) or remote (Mark VI control). The outputs have noise suppression circuitry to protect against surge and high-frequency noise. TBAO has two barrier-type terminal blocks for customer wiring and six D-type cable connectors.

Mark VI Systems

In Mark VI systems, TBAO works with VAOC processor and supports simplex and TMR applications. Cables with molded plugs connect TBAO to the VME rack where the VAOC board is located. In TMR systems, TBAO is cabled to three VOAC boards.

Mark VIe Systems

In Mark VIe systems, TBAO works with the PAOC I/O pack and supports simplex applications only. The I/O packs plug into the D-type connectors and communicate over Ethernet with the controller.

Refer to GEI-100577 Mark VIe Analog Input for board compatibility.

Installation

Attach TBAO to a vertical mounting plate. Connect the wires for the 16 analog outputs directly to the two I/O terminal blocks mounted on the left of the board. Each point can accept two 3.0 mm (#12AWG) wires with 300 V insulation per point using spade or ring type lugs. Each block is held down with two screws and has 24 terminals. A shield terminal strip attached to chassis ground is located immediately to the left of each terminal block. Make cable connections to TBAO follows:

• In Mark VI systems, connect cables with molded plugs to the D-type connectors on the TBAO and to the VME rack where the VAOC processor is located. Use two cables for simplex or six cables for TMR.

• In Mark VIe systems, plug the PAOC I/O packs directly into selected D-type connectors. Special side mounting brackets support the packs.

The following figure shows details of TBAO wiring and cabling.

Operation

TBAO supports 16 analog control outputs. Driven devices should not exceed a resistance of 500 Ω (900 Ω if using I/O packs) and can be located up to 300 m (984 ft) from the turbine control cabinet. The VAOC or PAOC contains the D/A converter and drivers that generate the controlled currents. The output current is measured by the voltage drop across a resistor on the terminal board.

Filters reduce high-frequency noise and suppress surge on each output near the point of signal exit. The following figure shows TBAO in a simplex system.

In a TMR system, each analog current output is fed by the sum of the currents from the three I/O processors, as shown in the drawing below. The total output current is measured with a series resistor that feeds a voltage back to each I/O processor. The resulting output is the voted middle value (median) of the three currents.

Diagnostics

Diagnostic tests are made on the terminal board as follows:

• The board provides the voltage drop across a series resistor to indicate the output current. The I/O processor creates a diagnostic alarm (fault) if any one of the two outputs goes unhealthy.

• Each cable connector on the terminal board has its own ID device that is interrogated by the I/O controller. The ID device is a read-only chip coded with the terminal board serial number, board type, revision number, and the JR, JS, JT connector location. When this chip is read by the I/O controller and a mismatch is encountered, a hardware incompatibility fault is created.

Configuration

There are no jumpers or hardware settings on the board.

DTAO Simplex Analog Output

Functional Description

The Simplex Analog Output (DTAO) terminal board is a compact analog output terminal board designed for DIN-rail mounting. DTAO has eight analog outputs driven by the VAOC I/O board over a single cable. This board is designed for simplex-only applications and only works with the VAOC. A single cable with 37-pin D-type connector connects DTAO to the VAOC rack. This cable is identical to those used on the larger TBAO terminal board. Two DTAO boards can be connected to the VAOC for a total of 16 analog outputs.

Note The DTAO board does not work with the PAOC I/O pack.

The on-board circuits and noise suppression are the same as those on TBAO. High- density Euro-block type terminal blocks are permanently mounted to the board, with two screw connections for the ground connection (SCOM). An on-board ID chip identifies the board to the VAOC for system diagnostic purposes.

Page 114: Geh-6421_vol_ii Mk Vi System Guide

108 • VAOC Analog Output GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II

Installation

Mount the plastic holder on the DIN-rail and slide the DTAO board into place. Connect the wires for the eight analog outputs directly to the terminal block as shown in the following figure. Driven devices should not exceed a resistance of 500 Ω and can be located up to 300 m (984 ft) from the turbine control cabinet. The Euro-block type terminal block has 36 terminals and is permanently mounted on the terminal board. Typically #18 AWG wires (shielded twisted pair) are used. Two screws, 17 and 18, are provided for the SCOM (ground) connection, which should be as short a distance as possible. DIN-type terminal boards can be stacked vertically on the DIN-rail to conserve cabinet space.

Note There is no shield terminal strip on DTAO.

VCCC/VCRC Discrete Input/Output

Functional Description

Note VCRC is a single slot version of VCCC with the same functionality, but contact input cables plug into the front of the board.

The Discrete Input/Output (VCCC) board with its associated daughterboard accepts 48 discrete inputs and controls 24 relay outputs from four terminal boards. VCCC is a double width module and mounts in the VME I/O rack. This rack has two sets of J3/J4 plugs for cables to the TBCI and TRLY terminal boards. VCRC is a narrower, single slot board and can be used instead of the VCCC.

VCRC Option

The VCRC board has the same functionality as the VCCC board but takes up only one VME slot because no daughter board is required. Two front panel connectors, J33 and J44, accept the contact inputs from the TBCI terminal boards. Relay outputs on TRLY use the J3 and J4 ports on the VME rack, the same as for VCCC. If locating cables on the front panel is undesirable, VCCC can be used instead.

Note VCRC does not support the TICI contact voltage sensing board.

Installation

To install the V-type board

1 Power down the VME I/O processor rack

2 Slide in the board and push the top and bottom levers in with your hands to seat its edge connectors

3 Tighten the captive screws at the top and bottom of the front panel

4 Power up the VME rack and check the diagnostic lights at the top of the front panel

Cable connections to the terminal boards are made at the J3 and J4 connectors (right hand set) on the lower portion of the VME rack. These are latching type connectors to secure the cables. Cable connections to the TRLY terminal boards are made to the left hand set of J3 and J4 connectors.

Note With the VCRC, both TBCI cables connect to J33 and J44 on the front panel, not to connectors under the rack.

Operation

VCCC passes the input voltages through optical isolators and samples the signals at the frame rate for control functions, and at 1 ms for sequence of events (SOE) reporting. VCCC transfers the signals over the VME backplane to the VCMI, which sends them to the controller. The contact input processing is shown in the figure, VCCC and I/O Terminal Boards, Simplex System.

Contact Inputs

The first 24 dry contact inputs are wired to a contact input terminal board. A second terminal board is required for inputs 25 - 48. Dc power is provided for the contacts. Cables with molded plugs connect the terminal board to the VME rack where the VCCC processor board is located.

High speed scanning and recording at 1 ms rate is available for inputs monitoring important turbine variables. The SOE recorder reports all contact openings and closures with a time resolution of 1 ms. Contact chatter and pulse widths down to 6 ms are reported.

The dry-contact inputs are powered from a floating 125 V dc (100 - 145 V dc) supply (TBCIH1) or from a floating 24 V dc (18.5 – 32 V dc) supply (TBCIH2). Filters reduce high frequency noise and suppress surge on each input near the point of signal exit. Noise and contact bounce is filtered with a 4 ms filter. Ac voltage rejection (50/60 Hz) is 60 V rms with 125 V dc excitation.

Page 119: Geh-6421_vol_ii Mk Vi System Guide

GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II VCCC/VCRC Discrete Input/Output • 113

For triple modular redundant (TMR) applications, contact input voltages are fanned out to three VME board racks R, S, and T through plugs JR1, JS1, and JT1. The signals are processed by the three VCCCs and the results voted by the VCMI board in each controller rack.

Relay Outputs

TRLYH1B holds 12 plug-in magnetic relays. The first six relay circuits can be jumpers configured for either dry, Form-C contact outputs, or to drive external solenoids. A standard 125 V dc or 115 V ac source, or an optional 24 V dc source, with individual jumper selectable fuses and on-board suppression can be provided for field solenoid power. The next five relays (7-11) are un-powered isolated Form-C contacts. Output 12 is an isolated Form-C contact, used for special applications such as ignition transformers.

Cables carry relay control signals and monitor feedback voltages between VCCC and TRLY. Relay drivers, fuses, and jumpers are mounted on the relay board. Several types of relay boards can be driven, including TRLY, DRLY, and SRLY.

The relay outputs have failsafe features so that when a cable is unplugged, the inputs vote to de-energize the corresponding relays. Similarly, if communication with the associated VME board is lost, the relays de-energize.

Diagnostics

Three LEDs at the top of the I/O board front panel provide status information. The normal RUN condition is a flashing green, and FAIL is a solid red. The third LED shows STATUS and is normally off but displays a steady orange if a diagnostic alarm condition exists in the board. The diagnostics include the following:

• Each output is monitored by diagnostics. Voltage drops across the local and outer loop current sense resistors, the D/A outputs, and at the shutdown relay contacts are sampled and digitized.

• Standard diagnostic information is available on the outputs, including high and low limit checks, and high and low system limit checks (configurable). If any one of the outputs goes unhealthy a composite diagnostic alarm, L3DIAG_xxxx, occurs. Details of the individual diagnostics are available from the toolbox. The diagnostic signals can be individually latched, and then reset with the RESET_DIA signal if they go healthy.

• Each cable connector on the terminal board has its own ID device that is interrogated by the I/O processor. The ID device is a read-only chip coded with the terminal board serial number, board type, revision number, and the JR, JS, and JT connector location. When the ID chip is read by the I/O processor and a mismatch is encountered, a hardware incompatibility fault is created.

In the Mark* VI system, TBCI works with VTCC/VCRC and supports simplex and TMR applications. Cables with molded plugs connect TBCI to VME rack where the VCCC or VCRC processor board is located. Both board versions TBCIH_B and TBCIH_C work correctly with Mark VI and are functionally identical.

Mark VIe Systems

In the Mark VIe system, the TBCI works with the PDIA I/O pack and supports simplex, dual, and TMR applications. One, two, or three PDIAs can be plugged directly into the TBCI. Mark VIe requires the C version of this board for correct mechanical alignment of connector JT1 with I/O pack mechanical support.

Board Versions

Three versions of TBCI are available as follows:

GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II VCCC/VCRC Discrete Input/Output • 121

Operation

Filters reduce high-frequency noise and suppress surge on each input near the point of signal entry. The dry contact inputs on H1 are powered from a floating 125 V dc (100-145 V dc) supply from the turbine control. The 125 V dc bus is current limited in the power distribution module prior to feeding each contact input. H2 and H3 versions use lower voltages as shown in the specification table.

The discrete input voltage signals pass to the I/O processor, which sends them through optical isolators providing group isolation and transfers the signals to the system controller. The reference voltage in the isolation circuits sets a transition threshold that is equal to 50% of the applied floating power supply voltage. The tracking is clamped to go no less than 13% of the nominal rated supply voltage to force all contacts to indicate open when voltage dips below this level.

Diagnostics

Diagnostic tests to components on the terminal boards are as follows:

• The excitation voltage is monitored. If the excitation drops to below 40% of the nominal voltage, a diagnostic alarm is set and latched by the I/O pack/board.

• As a test, all inputs associated with this terminal board are forced to the open contact (fail safe) state. Any input that fails the diagnostic test is forced to the failsafe state and a fault is created.

• If the input from this board does not match the TMR voted value from all three boards, a fault is created.

• Each terminal board connector has its own ID device that is interrogated by the I/O pack/board. The connector ID is coded into a read-only chip containing the board serial number, board type, revision number, and the JR1/JS1/JT1 connector location. When the chip is read by the controller and a mismatch is encountered, a hardware incompatibility fault is created.

Configuration

There are no jumpers or hardware settings on the board.

Operation

The TICI is similar to TBCI, except for the following items:

• No contact excitation is provided on the terminal board. • Each input is electrically isolated from all others and from the active electronics.

There are two groups of the TICI with different nominal voltage thresholds. TICIH1 has the following input voltage ranges:

• 70-145 V dc, nominal 125 V dc, with a detection of 39 to 61 V dc • 200-250 V dc, nominal 250 V dc, with a detection of 39 to 61 V dc • 90-132 V rms, nominal 115 V rms, 47-63 Hz, with a detection of 35 to 76 V ac • 190-264 V rms, nominal 230 V rms, 47-63 Hz, with a detection of 35 to 76 V ac

TICIH2 has the following input voltage range:

• 16-32 V dc, nominal 24 V dc, with a detection threshold of 9.5 to 15 V dc

TICI provides input hardware filtering with time delays of 15 ms, nominal:

• For dc applications the time delay is 15 ±8 ms • For ac applications the time delay is 15 ±13 ms

In addition to hardware filters, the contact input state is software-filtered, using configurable time delays selected from 0, 10, 20, 50, and 100 ms. For ac inputs, a filter of at least 10 ms is recommended.

Operation

DTCI has the same functionality and on-board signal conditioning as TBCI, except they are scaled for 24 V dc.The input excitation ranges from 18 to 32 V dc, and the threshold voltage is 50% of the excitation voltage. The ac voltage rejection is 12 V rms. Contact inputs take 2.5 mA nominal current on the first 21 circuits, and 10 mA on circuits 22 through 24.

Filters reduce high frequency noise and suppress surge on each input near the point of signal entry. The discrete input voltage signals are cabled to the VCCC board (or VCRC), which passes them through optical isolators and transfers the signals over the VME backplane to the VCMI. The VCMI then sends them to the controller.

Installation

Connect the wires for the 12 relay outputs directly to two I/O terminal blocks on the terminal board as shown in the figure, TRLYH1B Terminal Board Wiring. Each block is held down with two screws and has 24 terminals accepting up to #12 AWG wires. A shield terminal strip attached to chassis ground is located on to the left side of each terminal block.

Connect the solenoid power for outputs 1-6 to JF1. JF2 can be used to daisy chain power to other TRLYs. Alternatively, power can be wired directly to TB3 when JF1/JF2 are not used. Connect power for the special solenoid, Output 12, to connector JG1.

Jumpers JP1-JP6 are removed in the factory and shipped in a plastic bag. Re-install the appropriate jumper if power to a field solenoid is required. Conduct individual loop energization checks as per standard practices and install the jumpers as required. For isolated contact applications, remove the fuses to ensure that suppression leakage is removed from the power bus.

Note These jumpers are also for isolation of the monitor circuit when used on isolated contact applications.

Operation

Relay drivers, fuses, and jumpers are mounted on the TRLYH1B. For simplex operation, D-type connectors carry control signals and monitor feedback voltages between the I/O processors and TRLY through JA1.

Relays are driven at the frame rate and have a 3.0 A rating. The rated contact-to-contact voltage is 500 V ac for one minute. The rated coil to contact voltage is 1,500 V ac for one minute. The typical time to operate is 10 ms. Relays 1-6 have a 250 V metal oxide varistor (MOV) for transient suppression between normally open (NO) and the power return terminals. The relay outputs have a failsafe feature that vote to de-energize the corresponding relay when a cable is unplugged or communication with the associated I/O processor is lost.

Diagnostics

Diagnostic tests to components on the terminal boards are as follows:

• The output of each relay (coil current) is monitored and checked against the command at the frame rate. If there is no agreement for two consecutive checks, an alarm is latched.

• The solenoid excitation voltage is monitored downstream of the fuses and an alarm is latched if it falls below 12 V dc.

• If any one of the outputs goes unhealthy a composite diagnostics alarm, L3DIAG_xxxx occurs.

• When an ID chip is read by the I/O processor and a mismatch is encountered, a hardware incompatibility fault is created.

• Each terminal board connector has it own ID device that is interrogated by the I/O pack/board. The connector ID is coded into a read-only chip containing the board serial number, board type, revision number, and the JR1/JS1/JT1 connector location. When the chip is read by the I/O processor and mismatch is encountered, a hardware incompatibility fault is created.

• Relay contact voltage is monitored. • Details of the individual diagnostics are available in the configuration

application. The diagnostic signals can be individually latched, and then reset with the RESET_DIA signal if they go healthy.

Page 142: Geh-6421_vol_ii Mk Vi System Guide

136 • VCCC/VCRC Discrete Input/Output GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II

Configuration

Board adjustments are made as follows:

• Jumpers JP1 through JP12. If contact voltage sensing is required, insert jumpers for selected relays.

• Fuses FU1 through FU12. If power is required for relays 1-6, two fuses should be placed in each power circuit supplying those relays. For example, FU1 and FU7 supply relay output 1. Refer to terminal board wiring diagram for more information.

TRLYH1C Relay Output with Contact Sensing

Functional Description

The Relay Output with contact sensing (TRLYH1C) terminal board holds 12 plug-in magnetic relays. The first six relay circuits are Form-C contact outputs to drive external solenoids. A standard 125 V dc or 115 V ac source with fuses and on-board suppression is provided for field solenoid power. TRLYH2C holds 12 plug-in magnetic relays. The first six relay circuits are Form-C contact outputs to drive external solenoids. A standard 24 V dc source with fuses and on-board suppression is provided for field solenoid power.

The next five relays (7-11) are unpowered, isolated Form-C contacts. Output 12 is an isolated Form-C contact with non-fused power supply, used for ignition transformers. For example, 12 NO contacts have jumpers to apply or remove the feedback voltage sensing.

TRLYH1C and H2C are the same as the standard TRLYH1B board except for the following:

• Six jumpers for converting the solenoid outputs to dry contact type are removed. These jumpers were associated with the fuse monitoring.

• Input relay coil monitoring is removed from the 12 relays. • Relay contact voltage monitoring is added to the 12 relays. Individual

monitoring circuits have voltage suppression and can be isolated by removing their associated jumper.

• High-frequency snubbers are installed across the NO and SOL terminals on the six solenoid driver circuits and on the special circuit, output 12.

Mark VI Systems

In the Mark* VI system, the TRLY is controlled by the VCCC or VCRC board and supports simplex and TMR applications. Cables with molded plugs connect the terminal board to the VME rack where the I/O boards are mounted. Connector JA1 is used on simplex systems, and connectors JR1, JS1, and JT1 are used for TMR systems.

TRLYH1D Relay Output with Servo Integrity Sensing

Functional Description The Relay Output with Solenoid Integrity Sensing (TRLYH1D) terminal board holds six plug-in magnetic relays. The six relay circuits are Form-C contact outputs, powered and fused to drive external solenoids. A standard 24 V dc or 125 V dc source can be used. The board provides special feedback on each relay circuit to detect a bad external solenoid. Sensing is applied between the NO output terminal and the SOL output terminal.

TRLYH1D is similar to the standard TRLYH1B board except for the following:

• There are only six relays. • The board is designed for 24/125 V dc applications only. • Relay circuits have a NO contact in the return side as well as the source side. • The relays cannot be configured for dry contact use. • Input relay coil monitoring is removed. • The terminal board provides monitoring of field solenoid integrity. • There is no special-use relay for driving an ignition transformer.

Operation

The six relays have a MOV and clamp diode for transient suppression between the NO and power return terminals. The relay outputs have a failsafe feature that votes to de-energize the corresponding relay when a cable is unplugged or communication with the associated I/O board is lost.

TRLYH1D monitors each solenoid between the NO and SOL output terminals. When the relay is de-energized, the circuit applies a bias of less than 8% nominal voltage to determine if the load impedance is within an allowable band. If the impedance is too low or high for consecutive scans, an alarm feedback is generated. The contacts must be open for at least 1.3 seconds to get a valid reading.

For simplex operation, cables carry control signals and solenoid monitoring feedback voltages between the I/O board and TRLY through JA1. For TMR applications, relay control signals are fanned into TRLY from the three I/O processor boards R, S, and T through plugs JR1, JS1, and JT1. These signals are voted and the result controls the corresponding relay driver. Power for the relay coils comes in from all three I/O boards and is diode-shared.

Diagnostics

Diagnostic tests to components on the terminal boards are as follows:

• The output of each relay (coil current) is monitored and checked against the command at the frame rate. If there is no agreement for two consecutive checks, an alarm is latched.

• The solenoid excitation voltage is monitored downstream of the fuses and an alarm is latched if it falls below 12 V dc.

• If any one of the outputs goes unhealthy a composite diagnostics alarm, L3DIAG_xxxx occurs.

• When an ID chip is read by the I/O processor and a mismatch is encountered, a hardware incompatibility fault is created.

• Each terminal board connector has it own ID device that is interrogated by the I/O pack/board. The connector ID is coded into a read-only chip containing the board serial number, board type, revision number, and the JR1/JS1/JT1 connector location. When the chip is read by the I/O processor and mismatch is encountered, a hardware incompatibility fault is created.

• Relay contact voltage is monitored. • Details of the individual diagnostics are available in the configuration

TRLYH1E Solid-State Relay Output

Functional Description The solid-state Relay Output (TRLYH1E) terminal board is a 12-output relay board using solid-state relays for the outputs and featuring isolated output voltage feedback on all 12 circuits. The solid-state relays allow the board to be certified for Class 1 Division 2 applications. The use of solid-state relays requires three different board types:

• TRLYH1E for 115 V ac applications • TRLYH2E for 24 V dc applications • TRLYH3E for 125 V dc applications

Unlike the form-C contacts provided on the mechanical relay boards, all 12 outputs on TRLYH1E are single, NO, contacts. There is no user solenoid power distribution on the board.

Mark VI Systems

In the Mark* VI system, the TRLY is controlled by the VCCC or VCRC board and supports simplex and TMR applications. Cables with molded plugs connect the terminal board to the VME rack where the I/O boards are mounted. Connector JA1 is used on simplex systems, and connectors JR1, JS1, and JT1 are used for TMR systems.

Mark VIe Systems

In the Mark VIe system, the TRLY works with the PDOA I/O pack and supports simplex and TMR applications. PDOA plugs into the DC-37 pin connectors on the terminal board. Connector JA1 is used on simplex systems, and connectors JR1, JS1, and JT1 are used for TMR systems.

Installation

Connect the wires for the 12 solenoids directly to the I/O terminal block on the terminal board as shown in the figure, TRLYH1E Terminal Board Wiring. The terminal block is held down with two screws and has 24 terminals accepting up to #12 AWG wires. The dc relays are unidirectional, so care should be taken about polarity when connecting load to these relays. A shield terminal strip attached to chassis ground is located immediately to the left of each terminal block. The solenoids must be powered externally by the customer.

Operation

NO solid-state relays, relay drivers, and output monitoring are mounted on TRLYH1E. During power up, relays stay de-energized while connected to any control. The relay outputs have a failsafe feature that votes to de-energize the corresponding relay when a cable is unplugged or communication with the associated I/O processor is lost.

For simplex operation, control signals and relay output voltage feedback signals pass between the I/O processor and TRLY through JA1. For TMR applications, relay control signals are fanned into TRLY from the three I/O processors R, S, and T through plugs JR1, JS1, and JT1. These signals are voted and the result controls the corresponding relay driver. Power for the relay drivers comes in from all three I/O processors and is diode-shared.

Contact Voltage Feedback

In TRLYH1E, isolated feedback of voltage sensing is connected to the relay outputs. This allows the control to observe the voltage across the relay outputs without a galvanic connection. One contact sensing circuit is provided with each relay. This feature is similar to the voltage sensing on TRLYH1C but with simpler hardware. The voltage sensing circuit allows a small leakage current to pass to power the isolated circuit. The typical leakage current is the sum of the leakage through the turned off solid-state relay and the current through the voltage sensing circuit. The following charts indicate the typical leakage current as a function of the applied voltage for the three board types.

Due to the permitted leakage current, the board may give false indications if used in series with a low input current load, including common contact input circuits such as those found on TBCI or STCI. To ensure correct operation, the maximum load resistances for the three board types are as follows:

• TRLYH1E: Maximum load resistance at nominal 115 V ac is 2.5 kΩ. • TRLYH2E: Maximum load resistance at nominal 24 V dc is 4.5 kΩ. • TRLYH3E: Maximum load resistance at nominal 125 V dc is 25 kΩ.

Load resistance may be decreased by applying a resistor in parallel with the load so the parallel combination satisfies the maximum resistance requirement.

Contact Voltage Rating

Solid-state relays have a finite transient voltage capability and require coordinated voltage protection. TRLYH1E for ac applications uses a load control device that turns off on a current zero crossing. This turn-off characteristic ensures that no inductive energy is present in the load at turn-off time. Basic protection of the ac relay is provided on TRLYH1E using a MOV with clamp voltage coordinated with relay voltage rating. In addition, there is an R-C snubber circuit on the relay output using a 56 Ω resistor in series with a 0.25 µF capacitor.

Both the TRLYH2E (for 24 V dc applications) and the TRLYH3E (for 125 V dc applications) can interrupt currents in large inductive loads. Because a wide range of loads may be encountered, an appropriate R-C or diode snubber circuit must be selected for each application. The snubber should be applied at the load device using common engineering practices. If the applied snubber does not fully control inductive switching voltage transients, both board versions contain an active voltage clamp circuit. This circuit activates at approximately 50-55 V dc for the H2E and at approximately 164-170 V dc for the H3E (both values below the rating of the relay). While the clamp circuit has a finite ability to absorb energy, it can handle the wiring inductance of a resistive load.

TRLYH1F Relay Output with TMR Contact Voting

Functional Description

The Relay Output with TMR contact voting (TRLYH1F) terminal board provides 12 contact-voted relay outputs. The board holds 12 sealed relays in each TMR section, for a total of 36 relays. The relay contacts from R, S, and T are combined to form a voted Form A (NO) contact. 24/125 V dc or 115 V ac can be applied.

Note TRLYH1F and H2F do not support simplex arrangements

TRLYH1F does not have power distribution. However, an optional power distribution board, IS200WPDFH1A, can be added so that a standard 125 V dc or 115 V ac source, or an optional 24 V dc source with individual fuses, can be provided for field solenoid power.

TRLYH2F is same as TRLYH1F except that the voted contacts form a Form B (NC) output. Both boards can be used in Class 1 Division 2 applications.

Operation

The 28 V dc power for the terminal board relay coils and logic comes from the three I/O processors connected at JR1, JS1, and JT1. The same relays are used for ac voltages and dc voltages, as specified in the Specifications section. H1F and H2F use the same relays with differing circuits.

Relay drivers are mounted on the TRLYH1F and drive the relays at the frame rate. The relay outputs have a failsafe feature that votes to de-energize the corresponding relay when a cable is unplugged or communication with the associated I/O board or I/O pack is lost.

This board only supports TMR applications. The relay control signals are routed into TRLY from the three I/O processors R, S, and T through plugs JR1, JS1, and JT1. These signals directly control the corresponding relay driver for each TMR section R, S, and T. Power for each section’s relay coils comes in from its own I/O processor and is not shared with the other sections.

TRLYH1F features TMR contact voting. The relay contacts from R, S, and T are combined to form a voted Form A (NO) contact. 24/125 V dc or 115 V ac can be applied. TRLYH2F is the same except that the voted contacts form a Form B (NC) output. The following figure shows TMR voting contact circuit.

Field Solenoid Power Option

The WPDFH1A daughterboard supplies power to TRLYH#F to power solenoids. WPDF holds two power distribution circuits, which can be independently used for standard 125 V dc, 115 V ac, or 24 V dc sources. Each section consists of six fused branches that provide power to TRLYH#F. Each branch has its own voltage monitor across its secondary fuse pair. Each voltage detector is fanned to three independent open-collector drivers for feedback to each of the I/O processors R, S, and T.

WPDF should not be used without TRLYH#F. Fused power flows through this board down to the TRLY terminal board points. TRLY controls the fuse power feedback. The following figure shows TRLYH1F/WPDF solenoid power circuit.

Diagnostics

Diagnostic tests to components on the terminal boards are as follows:

• The voltage to each relay coil is monitored and checked against the command at the frame rate. If there is no agreement for two consecutive checks, an alarm is latched.

• The voltage across each solenoid power supply is monitored and if it goes below 16 V ac/dc, an alarm is created.

• If any one of the outputs goes unhealthy a composite diagnostic alarm, L3DIAG_xxxx occurs.

• When an ID chip is read by the I/O processor and a mismatch is encountered, a hardware incompatibility fault is created.

• Each terminal board connector has its own ID device that is interrogated by the I/O board. The connector ID is coded into a read-only chip containing the board serial number, board type, revision number, and the JR1/JS1/JT1 connector location.

Details of the individual diagnostics are available from the configuration application. The diagnostic signals can be individually latched, and then reset with the RESET_DIA signal if they go healthy.

Configuration

There are no jumpers or hardware settings on the board.

DRLY Simplex Relay Output

Functional Description

The Simplex Relay Output (DRLY) terminal board is a compact relay output terminal board designed for wall mounting (not DIN-rail mounting). The board has 12 form-C dry contact output relays and connects to the VCCC, VCRC, or VTUR processor board with a single cable. The 37-pin cable connector is identical to those used on the larger TRLY terminal board. Two DRLY boards can be connected to VCCC, VCRC, or VTUR for a total of 24 contact outputs. Only a simplex version of this board is available.

There are two versions of the DRLY terminal board:

• H1A has higher powered relay contacts than H1B. • H1B is suitable for use in UL listing for Class I, Division 2 Hazardous

(classified) locations.

Note DRLY does not work with the PDOA I/O Pack.

Page 167: Geh-6421_vol_ii Mk Vi System Guide

GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II VCCC/VCRC Discrete Input/Output • 161

Installation

Note DLRY does not have a shield terminal strip.

Mount the DRLY board by fastening screws to wall through the four mounting holes in the corners of metal support plate. Connect the wires for the 12 relay outputs directly to the odd-numbered screws on the terminal blocks. The high-density Euro-Block type terminal blocks plug into the numbered receptacles on the board. The two screws on TB2 are provided for the SCOM (chassis ground) connection, which should be as short a distance as possible.

Note SCOM, TB2, must be connected to chassis ground.

Operation

DRLY does not include solenoid source power. There is one set of dry contacts per relay, with two NO contacts in series. Unlike TRLY, there is no on-board suppression, and no relay state monitoring. The I/O board (VCCC, VCRC, or VTUR) provides the 28 V dc power for the relay coils, which is indicated with a green LED. DRLY has a yellow LED for each relay that indicates voltage across the coil. With an unconnected control cable, the relays default to a de-energized state.

Note Three relays on DRLY can be controlled by VTUR using the DTRT transition board. Six relays can be controlled if two DTURs are used.

The following figure shows two sizes of triple modular redundant (TMR) systems. The first example is a small system where all the I/O is mounted in the VME control rack so no remote I/O racks are required. Each channel (R, S, T) has its own IONet, and the VCMI has three IONet ports.

The second example is a larger system with remote I/O racks. Each IONet supports multiple I/O racks, but only one rack is shown here. All I/O channels (R, S, T) are identical in terms of I/O boards and points.

Installation

To install the VGEN board

1 Power down the VME I/O processor rack.

2 Slide in the VGEN board and push the top and bottom levers in with your hands to seat its edge connectors.

3 Tighten the captive screws at the top and bottom of the front panel. These screws serve to hold the board firmly in place and enhance the board front ground integrity. The screws should not be used to actually seat the board.

Note Cable connection to the TGEN terminal board is made at the J3 connector on the lower portion of the VME rack. Cable connection to the optional TRLY terminal board is made at the J4 connector on the lower portion of the VME rack. J3 and J4 are latching type connectors to secure the cables. Power up the VME rack and check the diagnostic lights at the top of the front panel. For details, refer to the Diagnostics section in this document.

178 • VGEN Generator Monitor and Trip GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II

VGEN monitors generator three-phase power and supplies the PLU and EVA functions for large steam turbines. The generator and bus PT inputs are three-wire, open delta, voltage measurements that are used to calculate all three line-to-line voltages. They are not used for automatic synchronizing, which requires two separate single-phase PT inputs. Each PT input is magnetically isolated and is nominally 115 V rms.

Note Test points are provided for all PT and CT inputs to verify the phase in the field.

Three single-phase CT inputs are provided with a normal current range of 0 to 5 A continuous. The CTs are magnetically isolated on TGEN. CTs connect to non-pluggable terminal blocks with captive lugs accepting are up to #10 AWG wires. The following parameters are calculated from these inputs:

• Total Mwatts • Total Mvars • Total MVA • Power factor • Bus frequency (5 to 66 Hz)

Note High frequency and 50/60 Hz noise is reduced with an analog hardware filter.

The four analog inputs accept 4-20 mA inputs or ±5, ±10 V dc inputs. A +24 V dc source is available for all four circuits with individual current limits for each circuit. The 4-20 mA transducer can use the +24 V dc source from the turbine control or a self-powered source. A jumper on TGEN selects between current and voltage inputs for each circuit.

Diagnostics

Three LEDs at the top of the VGEN front panel provide status information. The normal RUN condition is a flashing green, and FAIL is a solid red. The third LED shows STATUS and is normally off but displays a steady orange if a diagnostic alarm condition exists in the board.

Diagnostics perform a high/low (hardware) limit check on the input signal and a high/low system (software) limit check. The software limit check is adjustable in the field. Open wire detection is provided for voltage inputs, and relay drivers and coil currents are monitored.

Connectors JR1, JS1, and JT1, on TGEN have their own ID device that is interrogated by VGEN. The ID device is a read-only chip coded with the terminal board serial number, board type, revision number, and plug location.

• Jumpers J1A through J4A select either current input or voltage input • Jumpers J1B through J4B select whether the return is connected to common or

is left open

The following diagrams illustrate connections for common analog inputs.

TRLYH1B Relay Output with Coil Sensing

Functional Description

The Relay Output with coil sensing (TRLYH1B) terminal board holds 12 plug-in magnetic relays. The first six relay circuits configured by jumpers for either dry, Form-C contact outputs, or to drive external solenoids. A standard 125 V dc or 115/230 V ac source, or an optional 24 V dc source with individual jumper selectable fuses and on-board suppression, can be provided for field solenoid power. The next five relays (7-11) are unpowered isolated Form-C contacts. Output 12 is an isolated Form-C contact, used for special applications such as ignition transformers.

Mark VI Systems

In Mark* VI systems, TRLY is controlled by the VCCC, VCRC, or VGEN board and supports simplex and TMR applications. Cables with molded plugs connect the terminal board to the VME rack where the I/O boards are mounted. Connector JA1 is used on simplex systems, and connectors JR1, JS1, and JT1 are used for TMR systems.

Mark VIe Systems

In the Mark VIe system, the TRLY works with the PDOA I/O pack and supports simplex and TMR applications. PDOA plugs into the DC-37 pin connectors on the terminal board. Connector JA1 is used on simplex systems, and connectors JR1, JS1, and JT1 are used for TMR systems.

TRLYH1B Relay Output Terminal Board

Installation

Connect the wires for the 12 relay outputs directly to two I/O terminal blocks on the terminal board as shown in the figure, TRLYH1B Terminal Board Wiring. Each block is held down with two screws and has 24 terminals accepting up to #12 AWG wires. A shield terminal strip attached to chassis ground is located on to the left side of each terminal block.

Connect the solenoid power for outputs 1-6 to JF1. JF2 can be used to daisy chain power to other TRLYs. Alternatively, power can be wired directly to TB3 when JF1/JF2 are not used. Connect power for the special solenoid, Output 12, to connector JG1.

Jumpers JP1-JP6 are removed in the factory and shipped in a plastic bag. Re-install the appropriate jumper if power to a field solenoid is required. Conduct individual loop energization checks as per standard practices and install the jumpers as required. For isolated contact applications, remove the fuses to ensure that suppression leakage is removed from the power bus.

Note These jumpers are also for isolation of the monitor circuit when used on isolated contact applications.

Operation

Relay drivers, fuses, and jumpers are mounted on the TRLYH1B. For simplex operation, D-type connectors carry control signals and monitor feedback voltages between the I/O processors and TRLY through JA1.

Relays are driven at the frame rate and have a 3.0 A rating. The rated contact-to-contact voltage is 500 V ac for one minute. The rated coil to contact voltage is 1,500 V ac for one minute. The typical time to operate is 10 ms. Relays 1-6 have a 250 V metal oxide varistor (MOV) for transient suppression between normally open (NO) and the power return terminals. The relay outputs have a failsafe feature that vote to de-energize the corresponding relay when a cable is unplugged or communication with the associated I/O processor is lost.

Diagnostics

Diagnostic tests to components on the terminal boards are as follows:

• The output of each relay (coil current) is monitored and checked against the command at the frame rate. If there is no agreement for two consecutive checks, an alarm is latched.

• The solenoid excitation voltage is monitored downstream of the fuses and an alarm is latched if it falls below 12 V dc.

• If any one of the outputs goes unhealthy a composite diagnostics alarm, L3DIAG_xxxx occurs.

• When an ID chip is read by the I/O processor and a mismatch is encountered, a hardware incompatibility fault is created.

• Each terminal board connector has it own ID device that is interrogated by the I/O pack/board. The connector ID is coded into a read-only chip containing the board serial number, board type, revision number, and the JR1/JS1/JT1 connector location. When the chip is read by the I/O processor and mismatch is encountered, a hardware incompatibility fault is created.

• Relay contact voltage is monitored. • Details of the individual diagnostics are available in the configuration

application. The diagnostic signals can be individually latched, and then reset with the RESET_DIA signal if they go healthy.

GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II VGEN Generator Monitor and Trip • 193

Configuration

Board adjustments are made as follows:

• Jumpers JP1 through JP12. If contact voltage sensing is required, insert jumpers for selected relays.

• Fuses FU1 through FU12. If power is required for relays 1-6, two fuses should be placed in each power circuit supplying those relays. For example, FU1 and FU7 supply relay output 1. Refer to terminal board wiring diagram for more information.

TRLYH1F Relay Output with TMR Contact Voting

Functional Description

The Relay Output with TMR contact voting (TRLYH1F) terminal board provides 12 contact-voted relay outputs. The board holds 12 sealed relays in each TMR section, for a total of 36 relays. The relay contacts from R, S, and T are combined to form a voted Form A (NO) contact. 24/125 V dc or 115 V ac can be applied.

Note TRLYH1F and H2F do not support simplex arrangements

TRLYH1F does not have power distribution. However, an optional power distribution board, IS200WPDFH1A, can be added so that a standard 125 V dc or 115 V ac source, or an optional 24 V dc source with individual fuses, can be provided for field solenoid power.

TRLYH2F is same as TRLYH1F except that the voted contacts form a Form B (NC) output. Both boards can be used in Class 1 Division 2 applications.

Mark VI Systems

In the Mark* VI system, the TRLY is controlled by the VCCC, VCRC, or VGEN board and only supports TMR applications. Cables with molded plugs connect JR1, JS1, and JT1 to the VME rack where the I/O boards are mounted.

Mark VIe Systems

In the Mark VIe system, the TRLY works with PDOA I/O pack and only supports TMR applications. Three TMR PDOA packs plug into the JR1, JS1, and JT1 37-pin D-type connectors on the terminal board.

Operation

The 28 V dc power for the terminal board relay coils and logic comes from the three I/O processors connected at JR1, JS1, and JT1. The same relays are used for ac voltages and dc voltages, as specified in the Specifications section. H1F and H2F use the same relays with differing circuits.

Relay drivers are mounted on the TRLYH1F and drive the relays at the frame rate. The relay outputs have a failsafe feature that votes to de-energize the corresponding relay when a cable is unplugged or communication with the associated I/O board or I/O pack is lost.

This board only supports TMR applications. The relay control signals are routed into TRLY from the three I/O processors R, S, and T through plugs JR1, JS1, and JT1. These signals directly control the corresponding relay driver for each TMR section R, S, and T. Power for each section’s relay coils comes in from its own I/O processor and is not shared with the other sections.

TRLYH1F features TMR contact voting. The relay contacts from R, S, and T are combined to form a voted Form A (NO) contact. 24/125 V dc or 115 V ac can be applied. TRLYH2F is the same except that the voted contacts form a Form B (NC) output. The following figure shows TMR voting contact circuit.

Field Solenoid Power Option

The WPDFH1A daughterboard supplies power to TRLYH#F to power solenoids. WPDF holds two power distribution circuits, which can be independently used for standard 125 V dc, 115 V ac, or 24 V dc sources. Each section consists of six fused branches that provide power to TRLYH#F. Each branch has its own voltage monitor across its secondary fuse pair. Each voltage detector is fanned to three independent open-collector drivers for feedback to each of the I/O processors R, S, and T.

WPDF should not be used without TRLYH#F. Fused power flows through this board down to the TRLY terminal board points. TRLY controls the fuse power feedback. The following figure shows TRLYH1F/WPDF solenoid power circuit.

Diagnostics

Diagnostic tests to components on the terminal boards are as follows:

• The voltage to each relay coil is monitored and checked against the command at the frame rate. If there is no agreement for two consecutive checks, an alarm is latched.

• The voltage across each solenoid power supply is monitored and if it goes below 16 V ac/dc, an alarm is created.

• If any one of the outputs goes unhealthy a composite diagnostic alarm, L3DIAG_xxxx occurs.

• When an ID chip is read by the I/O processor and a mismatch is encountered, a hardware incompatibility fault is created.

• Each terminal board connector has its own ID device that is interrogated by the I/O board. The connector ID is coded into a read-only chip containing the board serial number, board type, revision number, and the JR1/JS1/JT1 connector location.

Details of the individual diagnostics are available from the configuration application. The diagnostic signals can be individually latched, and then reset with the RESET_DIA signal if they go healthy.

Configuration

There are no jumpers or hardware settings on the board.

VPRO Emergency Turbine Protection

Functional Description

The Emergency Turbine Protection (VPRO) board and associated terminal boards (TPRO and TREG) provide an independent emergency overspeed protection system. The protection system consists of triple redundant VPRO boards in a module separate from the turbine control system, controlling the trip solenoids through TREG. The figures shows the cabling to VPRO from the TPRO and TREG terminal boards.

Note VPRO also has an Ethernet connection for IONet communications with the control modules.

The VPRO board in the Protection Module <P> provides the emergency trip function. Up to three trip solenoids can be connected between the TREG and TRPG terminal boards. TREG provides the positive side of the 125 V dc to the solenoids and TRPG provides the negative side. Either board can trip the turbine. VPRO provides emergency overspeed protection and the emergency stop functions. It controls the 12 relays on TREG, nine of which form three groups of three to vote inputs controlling the three trip solenoids.

The original VPROH1A has been superseded by the functionally equivalent VPROH1B. VPROH1A and VPROH1B supports a second TREG board driven from VPRO connector J4. VPROH2B is a lower power version of VPRO that omits support for the second TREG board. Applications using a second TREG board connected to J4 must use VPROH1A or VPROH1B, not VPROH2B.

Installation

To install the V-type board

1 Power down the VME I/O processor rack

2 Slide in the board and push the top and bottom levers in with your hands to seat its edge connectors

3 Tighten the captive screws at the top and bottom of the front panel

4 Power up the VME rack and check the diagnostic lights at the top of the front panel

Note Cable connections to the terminal boards are made at the J3, J4, J5, and J6 connectors on VPRO front panel. These are latching type connectors to secure the cables. Connector J7 is for 125 V dc power. For details refer to the section on diagnostics in this document.

It may be necessary to update the VPRO firmware to the latest level. For instructions, refer to GEH-6403 Control System Toolbox for a Mark VI Turbine Controller.

Operation

The main purpose of the protection module is emergency overspeed (EOS) protection for the turbine, using three VPRO boards. In addition, VPRO has backup synchronization check protection, three analog current inputs, and nine thermocouple inputs, primarily intended for exhaust over-temperature protection on gas turbines.

The protection module is always triple redundant with three completely separate and independent VPRO boards named R8, S8, and T8 (originally named X, Y, and Z). Any one of these boards can be powered down and replaced while the turbine is running without jeopardizing the protection system. Each board contains its own I/O interface, processor, power supply, and Ethernet communications (IONet) to the controller. The communications allow initiation of test commands from the controller to the protection module and the monitoring of EOS system diagnostics in the controller and on the operator interface. Communications are resident on the VPRO board. The VPRO board has a VME interface that allows programming and testing in a VME rack. However, the backplane is neutralized when plugged into the protection module to eliminate any continuity between the three independent sections.

Speed Control and Overspeed Protection

Speed control and overspeed protection is implemented with six passive, magnetic speed pickups. The first three are monitored by the controllers, which use the median signal for speed control and primary overspeed protection. The second three are separately connected to the R8, S8, and T8 VPROs in the protection module. Provision is made for nine passive magnetic speed pickups or active pulse rate transducers (TTL type) on the TPRO terminal board with three being monitored by each of the R8, S8, and T8 VPROs. Separate overspeed trip settings are programmed into the application software for the primary and emergency overspeed trip limits, and a second emergency overspeed trip limit must be programmed into the I/O configurator to confirm the emergency overspeed (EOS) trip point.

Page 211: Geh-6421_vol_ii Mk Vi System Guide

GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II VPRO Turbine Protection Board • 205

The speed is calculated by counting passing teeth on the wheel and measuring the time involved. Another protection feature is: after the turbine reaches a predetermined steady-state speed, the rate of change of speed is continuously calculated and compared with 100%/sec and transmitted to the controller to trip the unit if it is detected. This steady-state speed limit is a tuning constant located in the controller’s application software. Another speed threshold which is monitored by the EOS system, is 10% speed. This is transmitted to the controller to verify that there is no gross disagreement between the first set of three speed pickups being monitored by the controller (for speed control and the primary overspeed protection) and the second set of three speed pickups being monitored by the EOS system.

Speed Difference Detection

There should never be a reason why the speed calculated by PPRO is significantly different from the speed calculated by the main control. Speed difference detection looks at the difference in magnitude between pulse rate 1 from both PPRO and the main control. If the difference is greater than the set threshold for three successive samples, a SpeedDifTrip is latched. If the main control recovers for 60 seconds, the trip is removed. This allows the main control to recover with subsequent re-arming of the backup protection.

Interface To Trip Solenoids

The trip system combines the Primary Trip Interface from the controller with the EOS Trip Interface from the protection module. Three separate, triple redundant trip solenoids (also called Electrical Trip Devices - ETDs) are used to interface with the hydraulics. The ETDs are connected between the TRPG and TREG terminal boards. A separately fused 125 V dc feeder is provided from the turbine control for each solenoid, which is energized in the run mode and de-energized in the trip mode.

Backup Synch Check Protection

Backup synch check protection is provided in the Protection Module. The generator and bus voltages are supplied from two, single phase, potential transformers (PTs) secondary output supplying a nominal 115 V rms. The maximum cable length between the PTs and the turbine control is 100 meters of 18 AWG twisted, shielded wire. Each PT is magnetically isolated with a 1,500 V rms rated barrier and a circuit load less than 3 VA. The synch algorithms are based on phase lock loop techniques. Phase error between the generator and bus voltages is less than +/-1 degree at nominal voltage and 50/60 Hz. A frequency range of 45 to 66 Hz is supported with the measured frequency within 0.05% of the input frequency. The algorithm is illustrated under TTUR, generator synchronizing.

Each PT input is internally connected in parallel to the R8, S8, and T8 VPROs. The triple redundant phase slip windows result in a voted logical output on the TREG terminal board, which drives the K25A relay. This relay’s contacts are connected in series with the synch permissive relay (K25P) and the auto synch relay (K25) to insure that no false command is issued to close the generator breaker. Similarly, contacts from the K25A contact are connected in series with the contacts from remote, manual synchronizing equipment to insure no false commands.

Thermocouple and Analog Inputs

Thermocouple and analog inputs are available in the VPRO, primarily for gas turbine applications. Nine thermocouple inputs are monitored with three connected to each VPRO. These are generally used for backup exhaust over-temperature protection. Also, one ±5, 10 V dc, 4-20 mA (selectable) input, and two 4-20 mA inputs can be connected to the TPRO terminal board, which feeds the inputs in parallel to the three VPROs.

Page 212: Geh-6421_vol_ii Mk Vi System Guide

206 • VPRO Turbine Protection Board GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II

Power Supply

Each VPRO board has its own on-board power supply. This generates 5 V dc and 28 V dc using 125 V dc supplied from the cabinet PDM. The entire protection module therefore has three power supplies for high reliability

TREG is entirely controlled by VPRO, and the only connections to the control modules are the J2 power cable and the trip solenoids. In simplex systems a third cable carries a trip signal from J1 to the TSVO terminal board, providing a servo valve clamp function upon turbine trip.

Control of Trip Solenoids

Note The solenoid circuit has a metal oxide varistor (MOV) for current suppression and a 10 Ω, 70 W economizing resistor.

Both TRPG and TREG control the trip solenoids so that either one can remove power and actuate the hydraulics to close the steam or fuel valves. The three trip solenoids are supplied with 125 V dc through plug J2, and draw up to 1 A with a 0.1 second L/R time constant. The nine trip relay coils on TREG are supplied with 28 V dc from VPRO boards in R8, S8, and T8.

A separately fused 125 V dc feeder is provided for the solenoids, which energize in the run mode and de-energize in the trip mode. Diagnostics monitor each 125 V dc feeder from the power distribution module at its point of entry on the terminal board to verify the fuse integrity and the cable connection.

Solenoid Trip Tests

Application software in the controller is used to initiate tests of the trip solenoids. Online tests allow each of the trip solenoids to be manually tripped one at a time either through the PTR relays from the controller or through the ETR relays from the protection module. A contact from each solenoid circuit is wired back as a contact input to give a positive indication that the solenoid has tripped. Primary and emergency offline overspeed tests are provided too for verification of actual trips due to software simulated trip overspeed conditions.

Diagnostics

Three LEDs at the top of the VPRO front panel provide status information. The normal RUN condition is a flashing green, FAIL is a solid red. The third LED is STATUS and is normally off but shows a steady orange if a diagnostic alarm condition exists in the board. VPRO makes diagnostic checks and creates faults as follows:

• Trip relay driver and contact feedbacks • Solenoid voltage and solenoid voltage source • Economizer relay driver and contact feedbacks • K25A relay driver and coil • Servo clamp relay driver and contact feedback • High and low limits on all analog inputs • If any one of the above signals goes unhealthy, a composite diagnostic alarm

L3DIAG_VPROR, or S, or T occurs. The diagnostic signals can be individually latched and then reset with the RESET_DIA signal if they go healthy.

Terminal board connectors on TPRO and TREG have their own ID device that is interrogated by the I/O board. The ID device is a read-only chip coded with the terminal board serial number, board type, revision number, and plug location. When the chip is read by VPRO and a mismatch is encountered, a hardware incompatibility fault is created.

TPRO Emergency Protection

Functional Description

The Emergency Protection (TPRO) terminal board provides the VPRO with speed signals, temperature signals, generator voltage, and bus voltage as part of an independent emergency overspeed and synchronization protection system. The protection system consists of triple redundant VPRO boards in a module separate from the turbine control system, controlling the trip solenoids through TREx (TREG, or TREL, or TRES). TPRO supplies inputs to all three VPRO boards. The following figure shows the cabling to VPRO from the TPRO and TREx terminal boards.

The VPRO board provides the emergency trip function. Up to three trip solenoids can be connected between the TREx and TRPx (TRPG, or TRPL, or TRPS) terminal boards. TREx provides the positive side of the 125 V dc to the solenoids and TRPx provides the negative side. Either board can trip the turbine. VPRO provides emergency overspeed protection and the emergency stop functions. It controls the 12 relays on TREG, nine of which form three groups of three to vote inputs controlling the three trip solenoids. A second TREG board may be driven from VPRO through J4.

Note TPRO does not work with the Mark* VIe I/O packs.

GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II VPRO Turbine Protection Board • 223

Operation

The main purpose of the TPRO is to supply speed signals to VPRO for the emergency overspeed (EOS) protection for the turbine. In addition, TPRO supplies generator signals for backup synchronization check protection, three analog current inputs, and nine thermocouple inputs, primarily for exhaust over-temperature protection on gas turbines. VPRO provides 28 V dc to TPRO to power the three analog input transmitters.

Speed Control and Overspeed Protection

Speed control and overspeed protection is implemented with six passive, magnetic speed pickups. The first three are monitored by the controller, which uses the median signal for speed control and the primary overspeed protection. The second three are separately connected to the three VPROs in the protection module. Provision is made for nine passive magnetic speed pickups or active pulse rate transducers (TTL type) on the TPRO terminal board, with three being monitored by each of the three VPROs.

Backup Synch Check Protection

TPRO provides inputs to the protection module for backup synchronization check. The generator and bus voltages are supplied from two, single phase, potential transformers (PTs) secondary output supplying a nominal 115 V rms. The maximum cable length between the PTs and the turbine control is 100 meters of 18 AWG twisted, shielded wire. Each PT is magnetically isolated with a 1,500 V rms rated barrier and a circuit load less than 3 VA.

Each PT input is internally connected in parallel through TPRO to the three VPROs in the protection module. The triple redundant phase slip windows result in a voted logical output on the TREG terminal board, which drives the K25A relay. This relay’s contacts are connected in series with the synch permissive relay (K25P) and the auto synch relay (K25) to insure that no false command is issued to close the generator breaker. Similarly, contacts from the K25A contact are connected in series with the contacts from remote, manual synchronizing equipment to insure no false commands.

Thermocouple and Analog Inputs

TPRO provides thermocouple and analog inputs to the protection module, primarily for gas turbine applications. Nine thermocouple inputs are monitored with three connected to each VPRO. These are generally used for backup exhaust over-temperature protection. Also, one ±5, 10 V dc, 4-20 mA input, and two 4-20 mA inputs can be connected to the TPRO terminal board, which feeds the inputs in parallel to the three VPROs.

Size 17.8 cm Wide x 33.02 cm High (7.0 in x 13 in)

Diagnostics

VPRO makes diagnostic checks on TPRO and its cables and input signals as follows:

• If high or low limits on analog inputs are exceeded a fault is created. • If any one of the above signals goes unhealthy, a composite diagnostic alarm

L3DIAG_VPROR (or S, or T) occurs. The diagnostic signals can be individually latched and then reset with the RESET_DIA signal if they go healthy.

Terminal board connectors on TPRO have their own ID device that is interrogated by the I/O board. The ID device is a read-only chip coded with the terminal board serial number, board type, revision number, and plug location. When the chip is read by VPRO and a mismatch is encountered, a hardware incompatibility fault is created.

Page 231: Geh-6421_vol_ii Mk Vi System Guide

226 • VPRO Turbine Protection Board GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II

Configuration

Configuration of the terminal board is by means of jumpers. For location of these jumpers refer to the Installation diagram. The jumper choices are as follows:

• Jumper JPA1 selects either current input or voltage input • Jumper JPB1 selects whether the return is connected to common or is left open

All other configuration is for VPRO and is done from the toolbox.

TREG Turbine Emergency Trip

Functional Description

The Gas Turbine Emergency Trip (TREG) terminal board provides power to three emergency trip solenoids and is controlled by the I/O controller. Up to three trip solenoids can be connected between the TREG and TRPG terminal boards. TREG provides the positive side of the dc power to the solenoids and TRPG provides the negative side. The I/O controller provides emergency overspeed protection, emergency stop functions, and controls the 12 relays on TREG, nine of which form three groups of three to vote inputs controlling the three trip solenoids.

There are a number of board types as follows:

• The H1A version is not used for new production and is replaced by H1B. • H1B is the primary version for 125 V dc applications. Control power from the

JX1, JY1, and JZ1 connectors are diode combined to create redundant power on the board for status feedback circuits and powering the economizing relays. Power separation is maintained for the trip relay circuits.

• H2B is used for 24 V dc applications. All other features are the same as H1B. • H3B is a special version of H1B for use in systems with redundant TREG

boards. Feedback circuit and economizing relay power is provided only by the JX1 connector.

• H4B is a special version of H1B for use in systems with redundant TREG boards. Feedback circuit and economizing relay power is provided only by the JY1 connector.

• H5B is a special version of H1B for use in systems with redundant TREG boards. Feedback circuit and economizing relay power is provided only by the JZ1 connector.

In redundant TREG applications, it is typical to find one H3B and one H4B board used together. It is important that system repairs be done with the correct board type to maintain the control power separation designed into these systems.

Mark VI Systems

In Mark* VI systems, the VPRO works with the TREG terminal board. Cables with molded plugs connect TREG to the VPRO module.

Mark VIe Systems

In Mark VIe systems, TREG is controlled by the PPRO pack on SPRO. The PPRO I/O packs plug into the D-type connectors on SPRO. Cables with molded plugs connect TREG to the SPRO board.

TREG Terminal Board Wiring

Operation

TREG is entirely controlled by the VPRO protection module, and the only connections to the control modules are the J2 power cable and through the trip solenoids. In simplex systems a third cable carries a trip signal from J1 to the TSVO terminal board, providing a servo valve clamp function upon turbine trip.

Page 234: Geh-6421_vol_ii Mk Vi System Guide

GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II VPRO Turbine Protection Board • 229

Control of Trip Solenoids

Both TRPG and TREG control the trip solenoids so that either one can remove power and actuate the hydraulics to close the steam or fuel valves. The nine trip relay coils on TREG are supplied with 28 V dc from the I/O controller. The trip solenoids are supplied with 125 V dc through plug J2, and draw up to 1 A with a 0.1 second L/R time constant.

Note The solenoid circuit has a metal oxide varistor (MOV) for current suppression and a 10 Ω, 70 W economizing resistor.

A separately fused 125 V dc feeder is provided from the turbine control for the solenoids, which energize in the run mode and de-energize in the trip mode. Diagnostics monitor each 125 V dc feeder from the power distribution module at its point of entry on the terminal board to verify the fuse integrity and the cable connection.

Two series contacts from each emergency trip relay (ETR1, 2, 3) are connected to the positive 125 V dc feeder for each solenoid, and two series contacts from each primary trip relay (PTR1,2,3 in TRPG) are connected to the negative 125 V dc feeder for each solenoid. An economizing relay (KE1, 2, 3) is supplied for each solenoid with a normally closed contact in parallel with the current limiting resistor. These relays are used to reduce the current load after the solenoids are energized. The ETR and KE relay coils are powered from a 28 V dc source from the I/O controller. Each I/O controller in each of the R8, S8, and T8 sections supplies an independent 28 V dc source.

The 28 V dc bus is current limited and used for power to an external manual emergency trip contact, shown as E-STOP. Three master trip relays (K4X, K4Y, K4Z) disconnect the 28 V dc bus from the ETR, and KE relay coils if a manual emergency trip occurs. Any trip that originates in either the protection module (such as EOS) or the TREG (such as a manual trip) will cause each of the three protection module sections to transmit a trip command over the IONet to the control module, and may be used to identify the source of the trip.

In addition, the K4CL servo clamp relay will energize and send a contact feedback directly from the TREG terminal board to the TSVO servo terminal board. TSVO disconnects the servo current source from the terminal block and applies a bias to drive the control valve closed. This is only used on simplex applications to protect against the servo amplifier failing high.

Note The primary and emergency overspeed systems will trip the hydraulic trip solenoids independent of this circuit.

TREG Board, Trip Interlocks, and Trip Solenoids

Solenoid Trip Tests

Application software in the controller is used to initiate tests of the trip solenoids. Online tests allow each of the trip solenoids to be manually tripped one at a time, either through the PTR relays from the controller, or through the ETR relays from the protection module. A contact from each solenoid circuit is wired back as a contact input to give a positive indication that the solenoid has tripped. Primary and emergency offline overspeed tests are provided too for verification of actual trips due to software simulated trip overspeed conditions.

The diagnostics cover the trip relay driver and contact feedbacks, solenoid voltage, economizer relay driver and contact feedbacks, K25A relay driver and coil, servo clamp relay driver and contact feedback, and the solenoid voltage source. If any of these do not agree with the desired value then a fault is created.

TREG connectors JX1, JY1, and JZ1 have their own ID device that is interrogated by I/O controller. The ID device is a read-only chip coded with the terminal board serial number, board type, revision number, and the plug location. When the chip is read by the I/O board and a mismatch is encountered, a hardware incompatibility fault is created.

Configuration

There are no switches on the terminal board.

Note A jumper must be placed across terminals 15 and 17 if the second emergency stop input is not required.

TRES Turbine Emergency Trip

Functional Description

The Small Steam Turbine Emergency Trip (TRES) terminal board is used for the emergency overspeed protection for small/medium size steam turbines. TRES is controlled by the VPRO protection module, and provides power to three emergency trip solenoids, which can be connected between the TRES and TRPS terminal boards. TRES provides the positive side of the 125 V dc to the solenoids and TRPS provides the negative side. The VPRO provides emergency overspeed protection, emergency stop functions, and controls the three relays on TRES, which control the three trip solenoids.

• TRES has both simplex and TMR form. • There are seven dry contact inputs for trip interlocks. • TRES has no economizing relays. • There are no emergency stop inputs.

In the TRES, the seven dry contact inputs excitation and signal are monitored and fanned to the protection module. The board includes the synch check relay driver, K25A, and associated monitoring, the same as on TREG, and the servo clamp relay driver, K4CL, and its associated monitoring. A second TRES board cannot be driven from the protection module.

Operation

The VSVO protection module controls TRES. In simplex systems, a third cable carries a trip signal from J1 to the TSVO terminal board, providing a servo valve clamp function upon turbine trip.

Control of Trip Solenoids

Both TREL and TRES control the trip solenoids 1 and 2 so that either one can remove power and actuate the hydraulics to close the steam or fuel valves. ETR3 is set up to supply power to trip solenoid #3. The nine trip relay coils on TRES are supplied with 28 V dc from the I/O controller. The trip solenoids are supplied with 125 V dc (or 24 V dc) through plug J2, and draw up to 1 A with a 0.1 second L/R time constant.

Note The solenoid circuit has an MOV for current suppression on TREL.

A separately fused 125 V dc feeder is provided from the PDM for the solenoids. Diagnostics monitor each 125 V dc feeder from the PDM at its point of entry on the terminal board to verify the fuse integrity and the cable connection.

Note A normally closed contact from each relay is used to sense the relay status for diagnostics

Two series contacts from each of the emergency trip relays (ETR1, 2, 3) are connected to the positive 125 V dc feeder for each solenoid, and two series contacts from each of the primary trip relays are connected to the negative 125 V dc feeder for each solenoid. The ETR relay coils are powered from a 28 V dc source from the I/O controller. Each I/O controller in each of the R8, S8, and T8 sections supplies an independent 28 V dc source.

The K4CL servo clamp relay will energize and send a contact feedback directly from the TRES terminal board to the TSVO servo terminal board. TSVO disconnects the servo current source from the terminal block and applies a bias to drive the control valve closed. This is only used on simplex applications to protect against the servo amplifier failing high.

Note The primary and emergency overspeed systems will trip the hydraulic trip solenoids independent of this circuit.

Solenoid Trip Tests

Application software in the controller is used to initiate tests of the trip solenoids. Online tests allow each of the trip solenoids to be manually tripped one at a time, either through the PTR relays from the controller, or through the ETR relays from the protection module. A contact from each solenoid circuit is wired back as a contact input to give a positive indication that the solenoid has tripped. Primary and emergency offline overspeed tests are provided too for verification of actual trips due to software simulated trip overspeed conditions.

If any of these do not agree with the desired value, a fault is created.

TRES connectors JA1, JX1, JY1, and JZ1 have their own ID device that is interrogated by the I/O controller. The ID device is a read-only chip coded with the terminal board serial number, board type, revision number, and the plug location. When the chip is read by the I/O controller and a mismatch is encountered, a hardware incompatibility fault is created.

Configuration

There are no jumpers or hardware settings on the board.

TREL Turbine Emergency Trip

Functional Description

The Large Steam Turbine Emergency Trip (TREL) terminal board is used for the emergency overspeed protection for large steam turbines. TREL is controlled by the VPRO in the protection module, and provides power to three emergency trip solenoids, which can be connected between the TREL and TRPL terminal boards. TREL provides the positive side of the 125 V dc to the solenoids and TRPL provides the negative side. I/O controller provides emergency overspeed protection, emergency stop functions, and controls the nine relays on TREL, which form three groups of three to vote inputs controlling the three trip solenoids. The three groups are called ETR (emergency trip) 1, 2, and 3.

• TREL is only available in TMR form. • TREL has no economizing relay as with TREG. • TREL has no E-STOP function as with TREG.

A second TREL board may be driven from the protection module.

GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II VPRO Turbine Protection Board • 241

Operation

TREL is entirely controlled by the VPRO protection module, and the only connections to the turbine control are the J2 power cable and the trip solenoids. In simplex systems, a third cable carries a trip signal from J1 to the TSVO terminal board, providing a servo valve clamp function upon turbine trip.

Control of Trip Solenoids

Both TRPL and TREL control the trip solenoids 1 and 2 so that either one can remove power and actuate the hydraulics to close the steam or fuel valves. ETR3 is set up to supply power to trip solenoid #3. The nine trip relay coils on TREL are supplied with 28 V dc from I/O controller. The trip solenoids are supplied with 125 V dc (or 24 V dc) through plug J2, and draw up to 1 A with a 0.1 second L/R time constant.

Note The solenoid circuit has an MOV for current suppression on TRPL.

A separately fused 125 V dc feeder is provided from the PDM to the solenoids. Diagnostics monitor each 125 V dc feeder from the PDM at its point of entry on the terminal board to verify the fuse integrity and the cable connection.

Note A normally closed contact from each relay is used to sense the relay status for diagnostics.

Two series contacts from each of the emergency trip relays (ETR1, 2, 3) are connected to the positive 125 V dc feeder for each solenoid, and two series contacts from each of the primary trip relays are connected to the negative 125 V dc feeder for each solenoid. The ETR relay coils are powered from a 28 V dc source from the I/O controller. Each I/O controller in each of the R8, S8, and T8 sections supplies an independent 28 V dc source.

The K4CL servo clamp relay will energize and send a contact feedback directly from the TREL terminal board to the TSVO servo terminal board. TSVO disconnects the servo current source from the terminal block and applies a bias to drive the control valve closed. This is only used on simplex applications to protect against the servo amplifier failing high.

Note The primary and emergency overspeed systems will trip the hydraulic trip solenoids independent of this circuit.

Solenoid Trip Tests

Application software in the controller is used to initiate tests of the trip solenoids. Online tests allow each of the trip solenoids to be manually tripped one at a time, either through the PTR relays from the controller, or through the ETR relays from the protection module. A contact from each solenoid circuit is wired back as a contact input to give a positive indication that the solenoid has tripped. Primary and emergency offline overspeed tests are provided too for verification of actual trips due to software simulated trip overspeed conditions.

Installation

To install the VPYR board

1 Power down the VME processor rack.

2 Slide in the VPYR board and push the top and bottom levers in with your hands to seat its edge connectors.

3 Tighten the captive screws at the top and bottom of the front panel. These screws hold the board firmly in place and enhance the board front ground integrity. The screws should not be used to actually seat the board.

Note Cable connections to the TPYR terminal boards are made at the J3 and J4 connectors on the lower portion of the VME rack. These are latching type connectors to secure the cables. Power up the VME rack and check the diagnostic lights at the top of the front panel. For details, refer to Diagnostics section in this document.

You may need to update the VPYR firmware to the latest level. For instructions, refer to GEH-6403, Control System Toolbox for the Mark VI Turbine Controller.

Operation

Analog signals from TPYR are cabled to the VPYR processor board where signal sampling and conversion take place. VPYR calculates the temperature profiles and runs turbine protection algorithms using both pyrometer signals. If a trip is indicated and the signals are validated, VPYR issues the trip signal.

Optical Pyrometer Measurements

Two infrared pyrometers dynamically measure the temperature profile of the rotating turbine blades. Each pyrometer is powered by a +24 V dc and a -24 V dc source on the terminal board, diode selected from voltages supplied by the three VPYR boards. Four 4-20 mA signals are returned from each pyrometer, representing the following blade measurements:

• Average temperature • Maximum peak temperature • Average peak temperature • Fast dynamic profile, with 30 kHz bandpass, providing the full signature.

Each 4-20 mA input generates a voltage across a resistor. The signal is sent to VPYR where it is multiplexed and converted. A dedicated A/D converter samples the fast input (#4) at up to 200,000 samples per second. VPYR can be configured for different numbers of turbine buckets, with up to 30 temperature samples per bucket.

Keyphasor Inputs

Two Keyphasor probes are used for shaft position reference, with one used as a backup. These probes and associated circuitry are identical to those used with VVIB/TVIB. They sense a shaft keyway or pedestal to provide a time stamp.

Page 251: Geh-6421_vol_ii Mk Vi System Guide

248 • VPYR Pyrometer Board GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II

Turbine Protection Algorithm

The protection algorithms run every Burst Period. The Burst of Fast data is collected concurrently from the two pyrometers. The start of each Burst of Fast data is synchronized with the selected Keyphasor probe. Each burst is continuous and has a nominal length of three revolutions as determined from the probe. The Keyphasor time-stamps, associated with this burst (four stamps) are included in the data. The turbine RPM is also passed to the VPYR card through signal space as a backup to the Keyphasor RPM value.

The algorithm provides seven buffers to store the fast pyrometer temperature data. The buffers store the raw A/D data that is loaded into a buffer automatically through the VPYR’s DMA controller. Each buffer stores one burst of data for pyrometer channel A, one burst of data for pyrometer channel B, and one header that describes the sampling details, conversion factors, and rate limits used. The seven buffers allow five buffers to be captured or frozen for a trip function (Trip_minus4, Trip_minus3, Trip_minus2, Trip_minus1 and Trip_List data), one user or manually operated capture list, and the last buffer for gathering sampled data for the protection algorithms.

The pyrometer algorithm takes the latest data from the capture buffers and determines the bucket span (pyrometer samples) that is used for the protection algorithm. BuckOffsetA/B defines the delay in percent of Bucket Period starting from the Keyphasor input to the start of the bucket temperatures that is used in the protection algorithm. BuckSpanA/B defines the percent of the Bucket Period that is used in calculating the bucket temperature signature for the protection algorithm.

The average temperature per burst, the maximum temperature per bucket signature, and the minimum temperature per bucket signature are calculated based on the bucket signature defined by the configuration constants. The average temperature per burst is the average temperature over the bucket signature for 3.1 revolutions of data (1 burst). The maximum temperature is stored for each bucket signature for 3.1 revolutions of data. The minimum temperature is stored for each bucket signature for 3.1 revolutions of data.

A median select is performed on each bucket signature over the three revolutions of data for both the maximum temperature per bucket and the minimum temperature per bucket, as shown in the following figure. This results in a filtered maximum for each bucket over the 3 revolutions of data and a filtered minimum for each bucket over the 3 revolutions of data.

The algorithm performs a maximum select from all the bucket filtered maximums and stores the value in the signal space variable, FastMxMxPk_A/B. The algorithm also performs a minimum select from all the bucket filtered minimums and stores the results in FastMnMnPk_A/B. The algorithm also provides an average of all the filtered maximums, FastAgMxPk_A/B, and calculates the average of all the filtered minimums, FastAgMnPk_A/B.

The following block diagram illustrates the algorithms used to calculate the following from the Pyrometer Channel A and B fast sampled temperature data:

• Maximum of the filtered maximum Turbine Blade Temperature per bucket • Average of the filtered maximum Turbine Blade Temperature per bucket • Average of the filtered minimum Turbine Blade Temperature per bucket • Minimum of the filtered minimum Turbine Blade Temperature per bucket

The rate limit comparator uses the Delta-Delta matrix and compares this against one of two limits. The Delta-Delta matrix is the difference in the rate of change of the filtered maximum temperatures from one burst to another and the rate of change of the average temperature from one burst to the next on a per bucket basis. The limit used is determined by the signal space variable, Rate1 Limit Select for Channel A/B, Rate1_LSel_A/B. If Rate1_LSel_A/B equals FROM_APPLICATION, then the signal space variable, Rate1_Lmt_A/B, is used. The application software sets the value used. At initialization the VPYR firmware sets Rate1_Lmt_A/B = Fn1. If Rate1_LSel_A/B equals FROM VPYR, then Fn1 is used. Fn1 is defined as

Fn = SetptR1B_A/B + SetptR1_A * AVG(n-1)

where SetptR1B_A/B is the set point bias for Rate1, _A for channel A & _B for chB, SetptR1_A/B is the set point gain for Rate1.

The set point bias and gain are both configuration constants in the VPYR. Rate2, Rate3, and the Distance calculations are performed similarly. The pyrometer rate limit checks of the protection algorithm are shown in the following two figures.

Data Historian Upload of Captured Lists

The Data Historian is used to upload captured lists from VPYR. For a TMR system configuration, the Data Historian uploads the captured lists from VPYR that is designated the UDH communicator. If the user wants the Data Historian to upload captured lists from each of the three VPYRs, then the user must configure the VPYRs as simplex.

VPYR provides two types of captured lists. VPYR runs protection algorithms examining the rate of temperature rise on the turbine blades. If the rate of rise is too high, then the protection algorithm flags the application software through the board point, TripPyrA or TripPyrB, which indicates a rate limit trip for either Channel A and B pyrometer. The application software in the controller detects the rate limit trip and, based on the application code sequencing, either requests a list capture for the trip information or does not. The VPYR captures five individual lists of approximately 12,000 samples or less of temperature data for each channel. The lists are identified as Trip_minus4, Trip_minus3, Trip_minus2, Trip_minus1, and TripList. Trip_minus1 stores the actual event that caused the trip indication. Each list includes a header describing the data captured and the data.

The second type of list capture is a user requested capture. The user capture request is generated in the controller application software in two different ways. First, the user can manually request a pyrometer temperature data capture through the HMI screen. Secondly, the application code periodically pings the VPYR(s) with a request based on a User Capture Timer set up through an HMI screen. When the board point, User Capture Request (UserCapReq), is set True by the application software, the VPYR(s) capture a single list of temperature data for both Channel A and Channel B pyrometers.

The Data Historian uses the voted board point, Trip Captured List (TripCapList), to determine when the trip list(s) are available by the VPYR for upload. The Data Historian uses the voted board point, User Captured List (UserCapList), for a User list upload. When the Boolean TripCapList or UserCapList equal True, the Data Historian checks the Main Header parameter, ListNumber. For I/O boards with multiple lists to be uploaded the parameter, ListNumber, indicates the number of the list that is ready to be uploaded.

Application Software State Diagram

Normally, the application software is in the No Pyro Fault Detected state. A pyrometer trip detection is determined by checking the EGD read variables, TripPyrA and TripPyrB. If either of these variables are True, then the application software transitions to the Pyrometer Fault Detected state where the EGD write variable, LogTrigger, is set True.

VPYR freezes the five lists, Trip_minus4, Trip_minus3, Trip_minus2, Trip_minus1, and TripList per the request, LogTrigger = True, from the application software. Next, VPYR prepares the Trip_minus4 for upload by the Data Historian. The EGD variable, TripCapList is set True by VPYR after the Trip_minus4 upload prep work has been completed. The application software transitions to the Data Historian Uploading state on the detection of TripCapList = True.

The application software starts a timer in the Data Historian Uploading state. To allow enough time for the Data Historian to upload the 5 lists, a minimum 2 minutes delay is required before the HMI Pyrometer Reset button is recognized.

Page 256: Geh-6421_vol_ii Mk Vi System Guide

GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II VPYR Pyrometer Board • 253

Resetting the EGD variable, LogTrigger, to False before the two minute delay is complete will corrupt the uploaded data. The following figure shows how the controller application software handles the detection of a pyrometer trip.

Record Storage in the Data Historian Archive

At least 450 Mbytes of disk space is required to store the Data Historian Archive for Operator or User Captured lists from six VPYR boards (TMR system – boards configured as Simplex) at a maximum rate of one upload per day for two years.

Archive Folder Layout

The folder structure for the Mark* VI I/O boards follows the Data Historian standard. In addition, the main header uploaded from the I/O board provides a subfolder name under the date folder. The naming convention for the file format is:

<collection-name_date_time_controller_rack#_slot#_list-name_A>.dca

File Description

collection-name This is used as the character field for Mark VI I/O board name (VPYR)

date Date format YYMMDD time Time format HHMMSS

Note: The time is defined as the trigger time provided in the Main Header. If I/O board does not provide, then Data Historian will use its computer time.

controller This defines the R, S or T controller rack# This defines the rack number slot# This defines the slot number list-name This defines the Mark VI I/O list name.

Note ListName is provided in the main header. If list-name is not provided, then an alpha character will be appends to the file name to insure a unique file name for each list.

Pyrometer Viewer

The Pyrometer Viewer is used to upload the data captured by the Data Historian. The Viewer is a separate application from the toolbox and is loaded onto the HMI computer or even the field engineer’s computer. The user selects the five dca files associated with the trip as shown in the following figure.

Page 258: Geh-6421_vol_ii Mk Vi System Guide

GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II VPYR Pyrometer Board • 255

The Pyrometer Viewer uses the raw temperature data from each dca file and re-calculates the median peak temperatures for each bucket as shown in the following figure.

Diagnostics

Three LEDs at the top of the VPYR front panel provide status information. The normal RUN condition is a flashing green, FAIL is a solid red. The third LED is STATUS and is normally off but shows a steady orange if a diagnostic alarm condition exists in the board. VPYR makes diagnostic checks including:

• System limit checking on the temperature inputs and the Keyphasor gap signals can create faults.

• The two pyrometer inputs are compared against configuration limits to determine if they are tracking, and the fast data is compared with other inputs to check validity.

• If any one of the above signals goes unhealthy, a composite diagnostic alarm L3DIAG_VPYR occurs. The diagnostic signals can be individually latched and then reset with the RESET_DIA signal if they go healthy.

• Terminal board connectors JR1, JS1, and JT1 have their own ID device that is interrogated by the I/O board. The ID device is a read-only chip coded with the terminal board serial number, board type, revision number, and plug location. When the chip is read by VPYR and a mismatch is encountered, a hardware incompatibility fault is created.

TPYR Pyrometer Input

Functional Description

The Pyrometer Input (TPYR) terminal board is wired to two pyrometers and to two Keyphasor® Proximitor® probes for shaft reference. The resulting 10 voltage signals are cabled to the VPYR board, which samples them at up to 200,000 samples per second.

Three DC-37 connectors on TPYR connect to three VPYRs. Connections can be simplex on a single connector (JR1), or TMR using all three connectors. In TMR applications, the input signals are fanned to the three connectors for the R, S, and T controls.

In the Mark* VI system, TPYR works with the VPYR I/O board and supports simplex and TMR applications. With TMR systems, TPYR connects to three VPYR boards with three cables.

Optical Pyrometer Measurements

Two infrared pyrometers dynamically measure the temperature profile of the rotating turbine blades. Each pyrometer is powered by a +24 V dc and a –24 V dc source, diode selected on TPYR from voltages supplied by the three VPYRs. Four 4-20 mA signals are returned from each pyrometer, representing the following blade measurements:

• Average temperature • Maximum peak temperature • Average peak temperature • Fast dynamic profile, with 30 kHz bandpass, providing the full signature.

Each 4-20 mA input generates a voltage across a resistor. The signal is sent to VPYR where it is multiplexed and converted. VPYR can be configured for different numbers of turbine buckets, with up to 30 temperature samples per bucket.

Keyphasor Inputs

Two Keyphasor probes are used for shaft position reference, with one used as a backup. These probes and associated circuitry are identical to those used with VVIB/TVIB. They sense a shaft keyway or pedestal to provide a time stamp (angle reference for blade identification).

Size 10.16 cm wide x 33.02 cm high (4.0 in x 13 in)

Diagnostics

Diagnostic tests are made on the terminal board as follows:

• There is system limit checking on the temperature inputs and the Keyphasor gap signals, and these can create faults.

• If any one of the above signals goes unhealthy, a composite diagnostic alarm L3DIAG_VPYR occurs. The diagnostic signals can be individually latched and then reset with the RESET_DIA signal if they go healthy.

• Terminal board connectors JR1, JS1, and JT1 have their own ID device that is interrogated by the I/O board. The ID device is a read-only chip coded with the terminal board serial number, board type, revision number, and plug location. When the chip is read by the I/O board and a mismatch is encountered, a hardware incompatibility fault is created.

Configuration

There are no jumpers or hardware settings on the board.

VRTD RTD Input

Functional Description

The Resistance Temperature Device (RTD) Input (VRTD) board accepts 16, three-wire RTD inputs. These inputs are wired to a RTD terminal board (TRTD or DRTD). Cables with molded fitting connect the terminal board to the VME rack where the VRTD processor board is located.

VRTD excites the RTDs and the resulting signals return to the VRTD. VRTD converts the inputs to digital temperature values and transfers them over the VME backplane to the VCMI, and then to the controller.

Installation

To install the V-type board

1 Power down the VME processor rack

2 Slide in the board and push the top and bottom levers in with your hands to seat its edge connectors

3 Tighten the captive screws at the top and bottom of the front panel

Note Cable connections to the terminal boards are made at the J3 and J4 connectors on the lower portion of the VME rack. These are latching type connectors to secure the cables. Power up the VME rack and check the diagnostic lights at the top of the front panel. For details, refer to the section on diagnostics in this document.

Operation

VRTD supplies a 10 mA dc multiplexed (not continuous) excitation current to each RTD through the terminal board. The resulting signal returns to VRTD. The VCO type A/D converter uses voltage to frequency converters and sampling counters. The converter samples each signal and the excitation current four times per second for normal mode scanning and 25 times per second for fast mode scanning, using a time sample interval related to the power system frequency. Software in the digital signal processor performs the linearization for the selection of 15 RTD types.

RTD open and short circuits are detected by out of range values. An RTD that is determined to be outside the hardware limits is removed from the scanned inputs to prevent adverse effects on other input channels. Repaired channels are reinstated automatically in 20 seconds or can be manually reinstated.

In triple modular redundant (TMR) configuration, TRTDH1B provides redundant RTD inputs by fanning the inputs to three VRTD boards in the R, S, and T racks. All RTD signals have high frequency decoupling to ground at signal entry. RTD multiplexing is coordinated by redundant pacemakers so that the loss of a single cable or VRTD does not cause the loss of any RTD signals in the control database. VRTD boards in R, S, and T read RTDs simultaneously. The RTDs read by each VRTD differ by two RTDs, such that when R reads RTD3, S reads RTD5, and T reads RTD7, and so on. This ensures that the same RTD is not excited by two VRTDs simultaneously and hence produce bad readings.

Diagnostics

Three LEDs at the top of the VRTD front panel provide status information. The normal RUN condition is a flashing green and FAIL is a solid red. The third LED is normally off, but shows a steady orange if a diagnostic alarm condition exists in the board. Diagnostic checks include the following:

• Each RTD type has hardware limit checking based on preset (non-configurable) high and low levels set near the ends of the operating range. If this limit is exceeded, a logic signal is set and the input is no longer scanned. If any one of the input’s hardware limits is set, it creates a composite diagnostic alarm, L3DIAG_VRTD, referring to the entire board. Details of the individual diagnostics are available from the toolbox. The diagnostic signals can be individually latched, and then reset with the RESET_DIA signal.

• Each RTD input has system limit checking based on configurable high and low levels. These limits can be used to generate alarms, and can be configured for enable/disable, and as latching/non-latching. RESET_SYS resets the out of limit signals. In TMR systems, limit logic signals are voted and the resulting composite diagnostic is present in each controller.

• The resistance of each RTD is checked and compared with the correct value, and if high or low, a fault is created.

• Each connector has its own ID device, which is interrogated by the I/O processor board. The terminal board ID is coded into a read-only chip containing the terminal board serial number, board type, revision number, and the connector location. If a mismatch is encountered, a hardware incompatibility fault is created.

TRTD RTD Input

Functional Description

The RTD Input (TRTD) terminal board accepts 16, three-wire RTD inputs. These inputs are wired to two barrier type terminal blocks. The inputs have noise suppression circuitry to protect against surge and high frequency noise. TRTD communicates with one or more I/O processors, which convert the inputs to digital temperature values and transfer them to the controller.

There are four versions of TRTD as follows:

• TRTDH1B is a TMR version that fans out the signals to three VRTD boards using six DC-type connectors.

• TRTDH1C is a simplex board with two DC-type connectors for VRTD. • TRTDH1D is a simplex board with two DC-type connectors for PRTD, normal

scan. • TRTDH2D is a simplex board with two DC-type connectors for PRTD, fast

scan.

Mark VI Systems

In the Mark* VI system, TRTDH1B and TRTDH1C works with the VRTD processor and supports simplex and TMR applications. One TRTDH1C connects to the VRTD with two cables. In TMR systems, TRTDH1B connects to three VRTD processors with six cables.

Mark VIe Systems

In the Mark VIe system, TRTDH1D and TRTDH2D works with the PRTD I/O pack and support simplex applications only. Two PRTD packs plug into the TRTD for a total of 16 inputs.

Operation

TRTD supplies a 10 mA dc multiplexed (not continuous) excitation current to each RTD, which can be grounded or ungrounded. The 16 RTDs can be located up to 300 m (984 ft) from the turbine control cabinet with a maximum two-way cable resistance of 15 Ω.

The A/D converter in the I/O processor samples each signal and the excitation current four times per second for normal mode scanning and 25 times per second for fast mode scanning, using a time sample interval related to the power system frequency. Software performs the linearization for the selection of 15 RTD types.

RTD open and short circuits are detected by out-of-range values. An RTD that is determined to be outside the hardware limits is removed from the scanned inputs to prevent adverse effects on other input channels. Repaired channels are reinstated automatically in 20 seconds or can be manually reinstated.

All RTD signals have high-frequency decoupling to ground at signal entry. RTD multiplexing in the I/O processor is coordinated by redundant pacemakers so that the loss of a single cable or I/O processor does not cause the loss of any RTD signals in the control database.

Diagnostics

Diagnostic checks include the following:

• Each RTD type has hardware limit checking based on preset (non-configurable) high and low levels set near the ends of the operating range. If this limit is exceeded, a logic signal is set and the input is no longer scanned. If any one of the input’s hardware limits is set, it creates a composite diagnostic alarm, L3DIAG_xxxx, referring to the entire board. Details of the individual diagnostics are available from the toolbox. The diagnostic signals can be individually latched, and then reset with the RESET_DIA signal.

• Each RTD input has system limit checking based on configurable high and low levels. These limits can be used to generate alarms, and can be configured for enable/disable, and as latching/non-latching. RESET_SYS resets the out of limit signals. In TMR systems, limit logic signals are voted and the resulting composite diagnostic is present in each controller.

• The resistance of each RTD is checked and compared with the correct value, and if high or low, a fault is created.

• Each connector has its own ID device, which is interrogated by the I/O processor board. The terminal board ID is coded into a read-only chip containing the terminal board serial number, board type, revision number, and the connector location. If a mismatch is encountered, a hardware incompatibility fault is created.

Configuration

There are no jumpers or hardware settings on the board.

DRTD Simplex RTD Input

Functional Description

The Simplex RTD Input (DRTD) terminal board is a compact RTD terminal board designed for DIN-rail mounting. The board has eight RTD inputs and connects to the VRTD processor board with a single cable. This cable is identical to those used on the larger TRTD terminal board. The terminal boards can be stacked vertically on the DIN-rail to conserve cabinet space. Two DRTD boards can be connected to VRTD for a total of 16 temperature inputs. Only a simplex version of the board is available.

Note The DRTD board does not work with the PRTD I/O pack.

Installation

Note There is no shield terminal strip with this design.

Mount the plastic holder on the DIN-rail and slide the DRTD board into place. Connect the wires for the eight RTDs directly to the terminal block. The Euro-Block type terminal block has 36 terminals and is permanently mounted on the terminal board. Typically #18 AWG wires (shielded twisted triplet) are used. Terminals 25 through 34 are spares. Two screws, 35 and 36, are provided for the SCOM (ground) connection, which should be as short a distance as possible.

Note SCOM must be connected to ground.

DRTD Board and VRTD Input Board

DRTD supplies a 10 mA dc multiplexed (not continuous) excitation current to each RTD, which can be grounded or ungrounded. The eight RTDs can be located up to 300 meters (984 feet) from the turbine control cabinet with a maximum two-way cable resistance of 15 Ω.

VRTD’s VCO type A/D converter uses voltage to frequency converters and sampling counters. The converter samples each signal and the excitation current four times per second for normal mode scanning and 25 times per second for fast mode scanning, using a time sample interval related to the power system frequency. Software in the digital signal processor performs the linearization for the selection of 15 RTD types .

RTD open and short circuits are detected by out of range values. An RTD that is determined to be outside the hardware limits is removed from the scanned inputs to prevent adverse effects on other input channels. Repaired channels are reinstated automatically in 20 seconds or can be manually reinstated.

VSVA Servo Control

Functional Description The Servo Control (VSVA) board controls up to four electro-hydraulic servo valves that start the steam/fuel valves. These four channels are divided between two TSVA terminal boards. The VSVA/TSVA boards provide triple modular redundancy (TMR) control solution for retrofit applications where 3-coil servo valves are not present. Valve position is measured with linear variable differential transformers (LVDT) or alinear variable differential reluctance (LVDR) sensor. Applications allowing dual coil servo valve and using either single or dual LVDT/LVDR sensors are supported.

GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II VSVA Servo Control • 287

Operation

The VSVA servo board contains I/O signal conditioning electronics along with a microprocessor providing four channels of servo loop control with bi-directional servo current outputs. Valve position is typically measured with either four wire LVDT or three wire LVDR Sensors. Ten LVDT/LVDR position inputs, two pulse rate inputs and four LVDT/LVDR excitation source outputs are supported on the VSVA/TSVA boards.

The VSVA/TSVA boards provide a TMR servo control solution using fanned in and out control and feedback signals needed to support retrofits of older simplex control applications which commonly have dual coil servo valves. The two coils are either tied in parallel or split, and have either one or two LVDT/LVDR position feedback sensors per valve.

One, two or three LVDT/LVDR valve position inputs can be assigned to a servo control loop from 10 LVDT/LVDR inputs available for all four servo loops. Two Pulse Rate inputs could be assigned for servo control loop applications requiring flow rate measurement feedback.

The pulse rate inputs can be used for turbine speed control. It is important to ensure that speed input signals meet the VSVA board input sensitivity-versus-frequency specification and that they fall within a 2 Hz to 12 kHz frequency band.

VSVA boards located in the R, S and T VME racks provide individual (local) servo current outputs that are combined on the TSVA terminal board to produce a TMR output. A current sense resistor in series with the total servo current output is located on the TSVA board providing total current feedback to the VSVA current regulator circuits. As long as any two of the three VSVA boards are online and operating without faults, the combined servo output loop will continue to function, allowing online replacement of any one of the three VSVA boards. Refer to the figures for VSVA/TSVA inputs and outputs.

Each VSVA servo control loop output is equipped with an individual suicide relay under firmware control. It opens the output current signal to the TSVA terminal board during rack power off, during system startup, for over-current faults, and for out-of-range position feedback faults.

Inputs, outputs, and critical internal VSVA board functions are continuously monitored online for out-of-limit conditions. The VSVA servo board generates diagnostic alarms. It sends associated fault messages to the operator interface as fault conditions are detected. Green, red, and yellow LEDs on the VSVA front panel display the board-operating status.

Redundant one-bit serial communication busses allow the R, S, and T VSVA boards to share critical status parameters. The decision to suicide servo current loop outputs, select LVDT/LVDR excitation switchover sources, and check all three boards are using the same parameters is continuously shared between VSVA boards over the serial busses.

The TSVA terminal board contains two removable I/O terminal blocks. The terminal screws, each capable of accepting two #12 AWG wires, provide the interface I/O customer sensor wiring. Each TSVA supports two servo control loop outputs plus associated I/O feedback sensors. Signals are fanned in and out on the TSVA board to and from the three VSVA (R, S, and T) boards. LVDT/LVDR inputs, excitation outputs, pulse rate inputs and servo loop outputs are voltage-clamped and passively filtered (suppressed) on the TSVA board. Servo cable lengths, up to 300 m (984 ft), are supported with a maximum two-way cable resistance of 15 Ω.

Page 291: Geh-6421_vol_ii Mk Vi System Guide

288 • VSVA Servo Control GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II

Three TMR VSVA boards are connected to either one or two TSVA terminal boards using cables, with DC-37 pin connectors on each end, between the JR1, JS1, and JT1 connectors and the R, S, or T rack J3 or J4 backplane connectors. VSVA front panel connectors, J7 and J8, supply feed back signals. They are connected to the TSVA board JR6, JS6 or JT6 receptacles using twisted shielded pair cables with DA-15 connectors. J7 and J3 must connect to one of the TSVA boards, while J8 and J4 connect to the second TSVA board, if used. Pulse rate inputs are fanned to the TMR VSVA boards through twisted shielded pair cables, with DA-15 connectors, between J5 receptacles on the three VSVA front panels and JR5, JS5 and JT5 receptacles on the TSVA. When Pulse Rate inputs are used, J5 on the VSVA board must be connected to JR5 on the TSVA terminal board. JR1 must be connected to J3 on the VME rack using cables with DC-37 pin connectors. If Pulse rate inputs are not required, J5 can be left unconnected. If J5 is used, then the J12 4 pin cable must connect the two TSVA boards.

Jumpers on the TSVA are configured to select appropriate in-line resistors that limit servo output current overdrive depending on coil resistance. Jumpers JP1 through JP5 and JP6 through JP10 select resistors compatible with full-scale servo output current ranges of 10 mA, 20 mA, 40 mA, 80 mA, or 120 mA for servo output channels. Refer to the figures for VSVA/TSVA inputs and outputs.

TSVA provides five channels of LVDT/LVDR differential inputs and two channels of redundant automatically switched-over LVDT/LVDR excitation outputs at 7.10 Vrms at 3.2 kHz.

TSVA provides redundant LVDT/LVDR excitation switchover relays to automatically select a good excitation source from an R, S, or T VSVA board. This feature ensures that a failure of a single VSVA board will not result in the loss-of-excitation output on the TSVA board. It also allows any one of the R, S, or T racks to be powered down to support online VSVA board replacement. TSVA excitation outputs to LVDT/LVDR sensors minimize effects on servo control when either the high or low side of the input or output windings are inadvertently shorted to ground.

This excitation output switchover feature is especially useful for retrofit applications using a single LVDT/LVDR position sensor. The excitation switchover source selection commands are controlled by software on the R, S, and T VSVA boards, which continuously monitor the excitation switchover outputs. A redundant hardware voter circuit on the TSVA board ensures that a single fault on a VSVA board or rack power-off condition will not result in loss-of -excitation output.

The two pulse rate circuits on the TSVA board have two current-limited 24 V dc outputs, at 40 mA each, to supply power to active pulse rate input devices.

Examples that define both internal cable and customer sensor wire interconnections to VSVA and TSVA boards are shown in the following five examples.

Example 1: Two Dual Coil Servo Valves and Single LVDT/LVDR

The first example supports two dual coil servo valves with coils electrically connected in parallel, and a single LVDT/LVDR position feedback device per valve. Only one servo valve and associated feedback device are connected to each one of the two TSVA boards. This supports online TSVA replacement with the loss of only one servo valve function. Three TMR VSVA boards plus two TSVA boards control a total of two servo valves plus associated LVDT/LVDR position feedback devices.

This configuration supports steam turbine control retrofit applications that can continue to operate with the loss of any single servo controlled steam valve. No single point fault, including online replacement of a TSVA board, will result in losing more than one servo valve control function. VSVA boards and cables can be replaced online without the losing servo output functions.

Three TMR VSVA boards, R, S, and T, connect to either one or two TSVA terminal boards using cables, with DC-37 pin connectors, between the TSVA JR1, JS1 and JT1 connectors and the R, S, or T VME rack backplane J3xx or J4xx connectors. JR6, JS6 and JT6 TSVA connectors feed total servo output combined current sense signals back to the associated VSVA front panel connectors, J7 and J8, using twisted/shielded pair cables with DA-15 pin connectors. The J7 and J3xx cables must connect to one of the TSVA boards, while J8 and J4xx must connect to a second TSVA board, if used. Pulse rate inputs are fanned into the three TMR VSVA boards using twisted/shielded pair cables, with DA-15 pin connectors, connected between the J5 connectors on the VSVA front panels and JR5, JS5, and JT5 connectors on the TSVA. When pulse rate inputs are used, the J5 cables must be connected to the TSVA board associated with the J3xx 37 pin backplane cable. If pulse rate inputs are not required, connecting the J5 cables is unnecessary. The 4-pin J12 connectors and cable connect the LVDT switchover relay status between two TSVA boards. If the J5 cable is not used, the J12 cable is not needed. Refer to the figure, Application Example 1: Two Dual Coil Servo Valve with Tied Coils and One LVDT/LVDR per TSVA.

Spare I/O resources are wired at the TSVA terminal block providing redundant monitoring functions improving VSVA board fault detection and localization. For example: LVDT inputs 1, 2, and 3 are wired together on the TSVA terminal block using three different LVDT/LVDR input cables and conditioning circuits on the VSVA and TSVA boards. Selecting a three-position, mid-select regulator configuration for regulator 1 and servo output 1 ensures a single fault in any of the three LVDT/LVDR input conditioning circuits or cables will not adversely affect the servo outputs. Mode 1 configuration enables limit checking on the VSVA board between the three LVDT regulator inputs while detecting and reporting disagreements between them. Mode 1 also enables limit checking between LVDT inputs 7, 8, and 9 assigned to servo regulator 3 and servo output 3. Refer to the Configuration section for more detailed information.

Mode 1 configuration checks the R1 excitation sources of both TSVA boards, enhancing fault detecting and reporting capability.

LVDT inputs 6 and 12 are wired at the TSVA terminal block redundantly monitoring LVDT excitation switchover outputs 1 and 3. Circuits on the VSVA boards use LVDT inputs 5 and 11 to detect loss-of-excitation, controlling the excitation 1 and 3 output switchover functions. LVDT inputs 5 and 11 are internally fed back on the TSVA to the VSVA boards. Refer to the Configuration section for more detailed information.

Mode 1 only checks the following defined functions: detecting LVDT/LVDR disagreements and generating diagnostic alarms/messages.

Example 2: Four Dual Coil Servo Valves and Single LVDT/LVDR

The second application example supports four dual coil servo valves with tied coils and a single LVDT/LVDR position feedback device per servo valve. Two servo valves and associated feedback devices are connected to each of the two TSVA boards. The three TMR VSVA boards plus two TSVA boards and associated cables shown in the following figure provide servo control outputs for up to four servo valve functions. The VSVA boards and internal cables can be replaced online without the loss of servo output functions. Online replacement of a TSVA board will result in the loss of up to two servo valve control functions during the replacement time period.

Spare I/O resources are wired at the TSVA terminal block providing redundant monitoring functions enhancing VSVA board fault detecting and localization. For example: LVDT inputs 1 and 2 are wired together on the TSVA terminal block utilizing two different LVDT/LVDR input cables and input conditioning circuits on the VSVA and TSVA boards. A two position, minimum or maximum, regulator configuration can be selected for regulators 1 - 4 and servo outputs 1 - 4 ensuring a single fault in either of two associated LVDT/LVDR input conditioning circuits will not affect the servo output functions. A mode 2 configuration should be selected enabling limit checking on the VSVA board between LVDT/LVDR regulator inputs 1 and 2, assigned to servo channel 1, detecting and reporting disagreements between them. Mode 2 enables limit checking between LVDT input pairs 3 - 4, 7 - 8, and 9 - 10 assigned to servo regulators and servo outputs 2 through 4. Refer to the Configuration section for more detailed information on mode 2 servo configuration and operation. Refer to the figure, Application Example 2: Four Dual Coil Servo Valves with Tied Coils-One LVDT/LVDR per Valve.

Mode 2 checks for LVDT/LVDR input pair disagreements for monitors 1 through 12 when configured to a 2_LVposMIN or 2_LVposMAX configuration and assigned to input pairs 1 - 2, 3 - 4, 7 - 8, and 9 - 10. Each of the input pairs must be assigned to one of the 12 monitoring functions when enabling mode 2.

Mode 2 only checks between LVDT/LVDR specified pairs on regulators and monitors detecting disagreements that generate diagnostic alarms and messages.

LVDT input 6 and 12 are wired at the TSVA terminal block to monitor and control LVDT excitation switchover outputs 2 and 4. Excitation switchover outputs 1 and 3 are monitored and controlled using LVDT/LVDR inputs 5 and 11. These are internally fed back to the TSVA detecting loss-of-excitation. Refer to the Configuration section for specifics on setting up and enabling LVDT excitation switchover circuit function.

Example 3: Four LVDT/LVDR Valve Position Only Monitors

The third application example shows supports four LVDT/LVDR valve position only monitors. LVDT/LVDR position information from four remotely driven servo valves is monitored using this configuration. This configuration was developed to support NSTC monitoring valve positions on customer-controlled valves.

The three TMR VSVA boards plus two TSVA boards and associated cables shown in the following figure provide four LVDT/LVDR excitation sources and LVDT/LVDR input position monitoring functions supporting four customer-controlled valves. The VSVA boards and internal cables can be replaced online without losing LVDT/LVDR excitation/monitor functions. Online replacement of a TSVA board can result in the loss of two servo valve monitoring functions during the replacement time period.

LVDT/LVDR input pairs 1 - 2, 3 - 4, 7 - 8, and 9 - 10 are wired at the TSVA terminal block providing redundant monitoring, enhancing VSVA board fault detecting and localization. For example: LVDT inputs 1 and 2 are wired together on the TSVA terminal block utilizing two different LVDT/LVDR input cables and input conditioning circuits. A two position minimum or maximum monitor configuration can be selected for monitors 1 through 12 ensuring a single fault in either of the two LVDT/LVDR input conditioning circuits will not affect the related LVDT/LVDR monitoring function. A mode 2 configuration can be selected enabling limit checking on the VSVA board between the two LVDT/LVDR monitor inputs for detecting and reporting disagreements between LVDT input pairs 3 - 4, 7 - 8, and 9 - 10 assigned to one of the 12 monitors. Each of these input pairs must only be assigned to one of the 12 monitor functions when enabling mode 2. Refer to the Configuration section for more detailed information on mode 2 servo configuration and operation. Refer to the figure, Application Example 3: Four LVDT/LVDR Value Position Monitors Only Configuration.

LVDT inputs 6 and 12 are wired at the TSVA terminal block monitoring and controlling LVDT excitation switchover outputs 2 and 4. Excitation switchover outputs 1 and 3 are monitored and controlled based on LVDT/LVDR inputs 5 and 11. These are internally fed back to the TSVA board detecting loss-of-excitation. Refer to the Configuration section for more detailed information on setting up and enabling LVDT excitation switchover circuit function.

Example 4: Two Dual Coil Servo Valves and Two LVDT/LVDR Devices

The fourth application example supports two dual coil servo valves with split coils and two separate LVDT/LVDR devices per servo valve. The split coils of the two servo valves and the associated LVDT/LVDR devices are divided between the two TSVA boards as shown in the following figure. This supports changing VSVA boards, TSVA boards and cables while online without losing either of the two servo output functions.

Loss of one servo control output channel to one of the two split servo coils will result in a 50% reduction in gain and null bias.

Spare I/O resources are wired on the TSVA terminal block providing redundant monitoring functions while enhancing VSVA board fault detection and localization. For example: LVDT inputs 1 and 2 are wired together on the TSVA terminal block. They utilize two different LVDT/LVDR input cables and input conditioning circuits on the VSVA and TSVA boards while monitoring a single LVDT/LVDR input. A two position minimum or maximum monitor arrangement can be configured using monitor 1. LVDT/LVDR inputs 3 - 4, 7 - 8, and 9 - 10 can be configured using monitor 3, monitor 7, and monitor 9. A mode 2 configuration can be selected enabling a limit check on the VSVA board between these pairs of LVDT/LVDR monitor inputs detecting and reporting disagreements between them. Refer to the Configuration section for more detailed information on Mode 2 monitor configuration and operation. Refer to the figure, Application Example 4: Two Dual Coil Valves with Split Coils - Two LVDT/LVDRs per Valve.

LVDT input 6 and 12 are wired at the TSVA terminal block to monitor and control LVDT excitation switchover outputs 2 and 4. Excitation switchover outputs 1 and 3 are monitored and controlled based on LVDT/LVDR inputs 5 and 11. These are internally fed back on the TSVA to detect loss-of-excitation. Refer to the Configuration section for specifics on setting up and enabling LVDT excitation switchover circuit functions.

The above table defines standard servo coil resistance and associated internal resistance, selectable with the terminal board jumpers shown in the preceding figure. In addition, non-standard jumper settings could be used to drive non-standard coils. The total resistance would be equivalent to the standard setting.

Control valve position is sensed with either a four wire LVDT or a three-wire linear variable differential reluctance (LVDR). The application software allows maximum flexibility checks for the feedback devices. LVDT/LVDRs can be mounted up to 300 m (984 ft) from the turbine control with a maximum two-way cable resistance of 15 Ω.

Note The excitation source is isolated from signal common (floating) and is capable of operation at common mode voltages up to 35 V dc, or 35 V rms, 50/60 Hz

Two LVDT/LVDR excitation sources are located on each terminal board for Simplex applications and another two for TMR applications. Excitation voltage is 7 V rms and the frequency is 3.2 kHz with a total harmonic distortion of less than 1% when loaded.

A typical LVDT/LVDR has an output of 0.7 V rms at the zero stroke position of the valve stem, and an output of 3.5 V rms at the designed maximum stoke position (some applications have these reversed). The LVDT/LVDR input is converted to dc and conditioned with a low pass filter. Diagnostics perform a high/low (hardware) limit check on the input signal and a high/low system (software) limit check.

Two pulse rate inputs are cabled to a single J5 connector on the VSVA board front. This is a dedicated connection minimizing noise sensitivity on the pulse rate inputs.

Inputs support both passive magnetic pickups and active pulse rate transducers (TTL type). Both are interchangeable without configuration. Pulse rate inputs can be located up to 300 m (984 ft) from the turbine control cabinet, provided 70 NF shielded-pair cable is used or 35 NF differential capacitance with 15 Ω resistance.

A frequency range of 2 to 12 kHz can be monitored at a normal sampling rate of either 10 or 20 ms. Magnetic pickups typically have an output resistance of 200 Ω and an inductance of 85 mHz excluding cable characteristics. The transducer is a high impedance source, generating energy levels insufficient to cause a spark.

Note The maximum short circuit current is approximately 100 mA with a maximum power output of 1 W.

Diagnostics

Three LEDs at the top of the VSVA front panel display status information. The normal RUN condition is a flashing green, and FAIL is solid red. The third LED is normally off but displays a steady orange if an alarm condition exists on the board

Servo diagnostics cover items such as out of range LVDT voltage, servo suicide, servo current open circuit, and short circuit. If any one of the signals goes unhealthy a composite diagnostic alarm, L#DIAG_VSVA occurs. If the associated regulator has two sensors, the bad sensor is removed from the feedback calculation and the good sensor is used. Details of the individual diagnostics are available from the toolbox. The diagnostic signals can be individually latched, and reset with the RESET_DIA signal if they go healthy

Connectors JR1, JS1, JT1, JR6, JS6, JT6, JR5, JS5 and JT5 on the TSVA terminal board have their own ID device that is interrogated by the VSVA board. The ID device is a read-only chip coded with the terminal board serial number, board type, revision number, and the plug location.

Configuration

Jumpers on the TSVA must be configured to select appropriate in-line resistors that limit Servo output current overdrive. Jumpers JP1 to JP5 and JP6 to JP10 select resistor values that are compatible with full-scale servo output currents of 10 mA, 20mA, 40 mA, 80 mA or 120 mA for servo output channels 1 and 2 respectively.

Parameter Description Choices

Configuration

System Limits Enable / Disable system limits for Pulse Rate Inputs. Enable, disable Mode Modes 1 and 2 for specific VSVA board applications. Unused, Mode1, Mode 2 Mode 1:

Mode1 generates diagnostic alarms for applications using one servo valve with dual coils tied in parallel and a single LVDT for position feedback. Only one servo valve and associated LVDT is supported per TSVA terminal board. If Regulator 1 and 3 is used, RegType must be selected to 3_LV_PosMid using LVDT inputs 1, 2 and 3 and 7,8 and 9 respectively. Regulators 2 and 4 must be selected to RegType unused. A diagnostic alarm is generated when an LVDT input assigned to Regulator 1 or 3 exceeds the TMR_DiffLimt referenced to the voted median value. If Monitors 4 and 10 are used, they must be assigned to LVDT inputs 4 and 10 respectively. A diagnostic alarm will be generated if LVDT input 4 or 10 is < 6.6 Vrms or > 7.7 Vrms. Excitation sources J3 ER1 and J4 ER1 must be wired to LVDT Inputs 4 and 10 respectively if Monitors 4 and 10 are used.

Mode 2: Mode2 generates diagnostic alarms for applications using one or two servo valves with dual split coils and one or two LVDTs each for position feedback. These applications will typically split the servo valves and LVDTs between the two TSVA terminal boards. Mode2 also supports four-valve LVDT position monitoring only applications. If Regulators 1,2,3 or 4 are used, they must be selected to RegType 2_LV_PosMAx or Min using LVDT input pairs (1,2) (3,4) (7,8) (9,10) respectively. If Monitors 1-12 are used and assigned to any of LVDT input pairs (1,2) (3,4) (7,8) or (9,10), they must be selected to RegType 2_LV_PosMax or Min. Only one Monitor can be assigned to one of these pairs. If a Regulator or Monitor is assigned LVDT input pairs (1,2) (3,4) (7,8) or (9,10) and the difference within the pair exceeds the associated TMR_DiffLimt value, a diagnostic alarm will be generated.

SrvOcSiucHld If an over-current condition exists on a used Servo Output 1,2,3 or 4 and it exceeds the selected Curr_Suicide value, the suicide command will be held off for this time interval to prevent suicide action on a short transient over-current condition.

VSCA Serial Communication Input/Output

Functional Description

The Serial Communication Input/Output (VSCA) board provides I/O interfaces for external devices using RS-232C, RS-422, and RS-485 serial communications. Currently the IS200VSCAH2A version is available. The DSCB terminal board connects to the external devices, which include intelligent pressure sensors such as smart Honeywell® pressure transducers and Kollmorgen® electric drives.

VSCA connects to the DSCB terminal board(s) through the J6 and J7 front panel connectors. These are parallel connected using 37-pin D shell connectors with group shielded twisted pair wiring. For RS-422 and RS-485, DSCB can interface with external devices at distances up to 1000 ft, at baud rates up to 375 kbps. For RS-232C, the distance is only 50 ft or 2500 pF of cable capacitance (including the cable from VSCA to the DSCB). It supports short haul modems for longer distances.

Installation

To install the V-type board

1 Power down the VME I/O processor rack.

2 Slide in the board and push the top and bottom levers in with your hands to seat its edge connectors.

3 Tighten the captive screws at the top and bottom of the front panel.

Note Cable connections to the terminal boards are made at the J6 and J7 connectors on the front panel. These are latching type connectors to secure the cables. Power up the VME rack and check the diagnostic lights at the top of the front panel; for details refer to the section on diagnostics in this document.

It may be necessary to update the VSCA firmware to the latest level. For instructions, refer to GEH-6403 Control System Toolbox for the Mark VI Turbine Controller.

VSCA Serial Communication Input/Output

318 • VSCA Serial Communication Input/Output GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II

Operation

Note VSCA/DSCB is a data terminal device (DTE).

The VSCA is a single slot board with six serial communication ports. Each port can be independently configurable as an RS-232C, RS-485, or RS-422 interface, using a three-position group jumper (berg array). Both RS-232C and R-S422 support full duplex. The line drivers on VSCA include appropriate termination resistors with configurable jumpers to accommodate multi-drop line networks. RS-422 and RS-485 outputs have tri-state capability. I/O goes to a high impedance condition when powered down. They do not cause significant disturbance when powered down/up (less than 10 ms) on a party line. The open wire condition on a receiver is biased to a high state.s

• RS-232C supports: RXD, TXD, DTR/RTS, GND, CTS (five wire) • RS-422 supports: TX+, TX-, RX+, RX-, GND • RS-485 supports: TX/RX+, TX/RX-, GND

Data Flow from VSCA to Controller

The data flow from VSCA to the UCV_ controller is of two types: fixed I/O and Modbus® I/O. Fixed I/O is associated with the smart pressure transducers and the Kollmorgen electric drive data. This data processes completely, every frame, as with conventional I/O. The required frame rate is 100 Hz. These signals are mapped into signal space, using the .tre file, and have individual health bits, use system limit checking, and have offset/gain scaling.

Note Two consecutive time outs are required before a signal is declared unhealthy. Diagnostic messages are used to annunciate all communication problems.

Modbus I/O is associated with the Modbus ports. Because of the quantity of these signals, they are not completely processed every frame. Instead they are packetized and transferred to the UCV_ processor over the IONet through a special service. This accommodates up to 2400 bytes at 4 Hz, or 9600 bytes at 1 Hz, or combinations thereof. This I/O is known as second class I/O, where coherency is at the signal level only, not at the device or board level. Health bits are assigned at the device level, the UCV_ expands (fully populate) for all signals, and system limit checking is not performed.

Ports 1 and 2 only (as an option) support the Honeywell pressure configuration. It reads inputs from the Honeywell smart pressure transducers, type LG-1237. This service is available on ports 1 and 2 as an option (pressure transducers or Modbus, or drives). The pressure transducer protocol uses the XDSAG#AC interface board and RS-422. Each port can service up to six transducers. The service is 375 kbaud, asynchronous, and with nine data bits (11 bits including start and stop). It includes the following failsafe features:

• Communication miss counters, one per device, and associated diagnostics • After four consecutive misses it forces the input pressure to 1.0 psi, and posts a

diagnostic. After four consecutive hits (good values) it removes the forcing and the diagnostic.

Three ports (any three, but no more than three) support the Kollmorgen electric drive. It communicates with a Kollmorgen electric fast drive FD170/8R2-004 at a 19200 baud rate, point-to-point, using RS-422.

GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II VSCA Serial Communication Input/Output • 319

Modbus service

The current Modbus design supports the master mode. However the design does not prevent the future enhancement of Modbus slave mode of operation. It is configurable at the port level as follows:

• Used, not used • Baud Rate RS-232C: 300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600 • Baud Rate RS-485/422: 19200, 38400, 57600, 115000 • Parity: none, odd, even • Data bits: seven, eight • Stop bits: one, two • Station addresses • Multi-drop, up to eight devices per port; maximum of 18 devices per board • RTU • Time out (seconds) per device

The Modbus service is configurable at the signal level as follows:

• Signal type • Register number • Read/write • Transfer rate, 0.5, 1, 2, or 4 Hz • Scaling, offset, and gain

The service supports function codes 1-7, 15, and 16. It also supports double 16-bit registers for floating point numbers and 32-bit counters. It periodically tries 20 attempts to reestablish communications with a dead station. The VSCA and toolbox support type casting and scaling of all I/O signals to/from engineering units, for both fixed I/O and Modbus I/O.

Physical interfaces

Special connections are required for RS-485 applications with VSCA/DSCB located somewhere in the middle of the transmission path. Because of the potential length of the connection between VSCA and DSCB, there may be substantial stub length to the connection that will affect signal quality. For this reason, VSCA supports the connection of two DSCB boards wired in parallel. This permits RS-485 signals to come in one DSCB, pass through VSCA with the RS-485 transceiver, and go out the opposite DSCB. This ensures that the stub-length of the RS-485 path is minimized.

Note The above arrangement is not required when the VSCA/DSCB is located at one end of the RS-485 wiring.

Diagnostics

Three LEDs at the top of the VSCA front panel provide status information. The normal RUN condition is a flashing green, and FAIL is a solid red. The third LED shows a steady orange if a diagnostic alarm condition exists in the board. Diagnostic checks include the following:

• Each port checks communications and if there is no response, or bad data, or the communication port is non functional, a diagnostic fault is set. This creates a composite diagnostic alarm, L3DIAG_VSCA, referring to the entire board. The diagnostic signals can be individually latched, and then reset with the RESET_DIA signal.

• Each terminal board has its own ID device, which is interrogated by the I/O board. The board ID is coded into a read-only chip containing the terminal board serial number, board type, revision number, and the JA1 connector. When the chip is read by the I/O board and a mismatch is encountered, a hardware incompatibility fault is created.

Details of diagnostic faults generated by the electric actuator are a separate category and are listed in the Alarms section of this document.

322 • VSCA Serial Communication Input/Output GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II

Configuration

VSCA is configured with board jumpers and with the toolbox. Jumpers JP1 through JP6 are block jumpers, used to select the port electrical characteristic, RS-232C, RS-422, or RS-485. Each jumper has three positions marked 232, 422, and 485.

Jumpers JP7 through JP12 are block jumpers, used to select the correct termination configuration for all the transmission lines (Tx). Each jumper has three positions marked TRM, THR, and PRK where:

• TRM means with terminating resistor. • THR means no terminating resistor, pass through to J7. • PRK means no terminating resistor, or park position

Jumpers JP13 through JP18 are block jumpers, and are used to select the correct termination configuration for all the receive lines (Rx). Each jumper has three positions marked, TRM, THR, and PRK, where the meanings are the same as above.

A two-position jumper, JPU1, selects between Honeywell pressure transducer and Modbus operation for ports 1 and 2. The default position for JPU1 is X2, which enables the serial clock for operation with Honeywell transducers. Position X1 selects the clock needed for Modbus operation. JPU1 is located at the bottom of the board towards the backplane connector (away from the other jumpers).

DSCB Simplex Serial Communication Input/Output

Functional Description

The Simplex Serial Communication Input/Output (DSCB) terminal board is a compact interface terminal board, designed for DIN-rail mounting. DSCB connects to theVSCA board with a 37-wire cable. VSCA provides communication interfaces with external devices, using RS-232C, RS-422, and RS-485 serial communications. DSCB is wired to the external devices, which include intelligent pressure sensors such as the smart Honeywell® Pressure Transducers and Kollmorgen® Electric Drives used for valve actuation.

Wiring to devices uses shielded twisted pair. DSCB communication signals have on-board noise suppression. An on-board ID chip identifies the board to VSCA for system diagnostic purposes.

Note DSCB does not work with the PSCA I/O pack.

Installation

Mount the plastic holder on the DIN-rail and slide the DSCB board into place. Connect the wires for the external devices to the Euro-Block type terminal block as shown in the following figure. Four terminals are provided for the SCOM (ground) connection, which should be as short as possible. Connect DSCB to VSCA using the 37 pin JA1 connector.

Note Jumpers J1 - J6 direct SIGRET directly to SCOM or through a capacitor to SCOM. The shield must be grounded at one end or the other, but not both. If the shield is grounded at the device end, the jumpers should be set to include the capacitor in the circuit. If the shield is not grounded at the device end, the jumpers should be set to go directly to SCOM.

Diagnostics

The DSCB terminal board has its own ID device, which is interrogated by VSCA. The board ID is coded into a read-only chip containing the terminal board serial number, board type, revision number, and the JA1 connector. When the chip is read by VSCA and a mismatch is encountered, a hardware incompatibility fault is created. Communication and device problems are detected by the VSCA and reported to the toolbox.

Configuration

Each of the six channels has a jumper to connect the cable shield to ground through a capacitor. These are used when the shield is grounded at the device end. The jumper positions are shown in the Installation section. All other configuration is done on the VSCA board and in the toolbox.

DPWA Transducer Power Distribution

Functional Description

The Transducer Power Distribution (DPWA) terminal board is a DIN-rail mounted power distribution board. It accepts input voltage of 28 V dc ±5%, provided through a two-pin Mate-N-Lok® connector. Connectors are provided for two independent power sources to allow the use of redundant supplies. The input can accept power from a floating isolated voltage source. The input to DPWA includes two 1 kΩ resistors from positive and negative input power to SCOM. These center a floating power source on SCOM. Attenuated input voltage is provided for external monitoring. Output power of 12 V dc ±5% is connected to external devices through a Euro- type terminal block, using screw terminals and AWG#18 twisted-pair wiring. DPWA provides three output terminal pairs with a total output rated at 0 to 1.2 A. The outputs are compatible with the XDSAG#AC interface board. Outputs are short circuit-protected and self-recovering.

Note DPWA provides excitation power to LG-1237 Honeywell pressure transducers.

Page 333: Geh-6421_vol_ii Mk Vi System Guide

330 • VSCA Serial Communication Input/Output GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II

Installation

Mount the DPWA assembly on a standard DIN-rail. Connect input power to connector P1. If multiple DPWA boards are used, use connector P2 as a pass-through connection point for the power to additional boards. If a redundant power input is provided, connect power to connector P3 and use connector P4 as the pass-through to additional boards.

Connect the wires for the three output power circuits on screw terminal pairs 9-10, 11-12, and 13-14.

Note The DPWA terminal board includes two screw terminals, 15 and 16, for SCOM (ground) that must be connected to a good shield ground.

Output voltage 12 V dc ±5%, maximum total current of 1.2 A, short circuit protected, and self-recovering

Monitor voltages Attenuated by 6:1 ratio

Diagnostics

DPWA features three voltage outputs to permit monitoring of the board input power. The voltage monitor outputs are all attenuated by a 6:1 ratio to permit reading the 28 V dc using an input voltage with 5 V dc full scale input. Terminal 1 (PSRet) is the attenuated voltage present on the power input return line. Terminal 3 (PS28VA) is the attenuated voltage present on the P1 positive power input line. Terminal 5 (PS28VB) is the attenuated voltage present on the P3 positive power input line. Terminals 2, 4, and 6 provide a return SCOM path for the attenuator signals. In redundant systems, monitoring PS28VA and PS28VB permits the detection of a failed or missing redundant input. In systems with floating 28 V power, with the input centered on SCOM, the positive and return voltages should be approximately the same magnitude as a negative voltage on the return. If a ground fault is present in the input power, it may be detected by positive or return attenuated voltage approaching SCOM while the other signal doubles.

Configuration

There are no jumpers or hardware settings on the board.

VSVO Servo Control

Functional Description

The Servo Control (VSVO) board controls four electro-hydraulic servo valves that actuate the steam/fuel valves. These four channels are usually divided between two servo terminal boards (TSVO or DSVO). Valve position is measured with linear variable differential transformers (LVDT). The loop control algorithm is run in the VSVO.

Three cables connect to VSVO on J5 plug on the front panel and the J3/J4 connectors on the VME rack. TSVO provides simplex signals through the JR1 connector, and fans out TMR signals to the JR1, JS1, and JT1 connectors. Plugs JD1 or JD2 are for external trips from the protection module.

Installation

To install the V-type board

1 Power down the VME processor rack

2 Slide in the board and push the top and bottom levers in with your hands to seat its edge connectors

3 Tighten the captive screws at the top and bottom of the front panel

Note Cable connections to the terminal boards are made at the J3 and J4 connectors on the lower portion of the VME rack. These are latching type connectors to secure the cables. Power up the VME rack and check the diagnostic lights at the top of the front panel. For details, refer to the section on diagnostics in this document.

Operation

VSVO provides four channels consisting of bi-directional servo current outputs, LVDT position feedback, LVDT excitation, and pulse rate flows inputs. The TSVO provides excitation for, and accepts inputs from , up to six LVDT valve position inputs. There is a choice of one, two three, or four LVDTs for each servo control loop. Three inputs are available for gas turbine flow measuring applications. These signals come through TSVO and go directly to the VSVO board front at J5.

Each servo output is equipped with an individual suicide relay under firmware control that shorts the VSVO output signal to signal common when de-energized, and recovers to nominal limits after a manual reset command is issued. Diagnostics monitor the output status of each servo voltage, current, and suicide relay.

LVDT and Pulse Rate Inputs, Simplex

Each servo output channel can drive one or two-coil servos in simplex applications, or two or three-coil servos in TMR applications. The two-coil TMR applications are for 200# oil gear systems where each of two control modules drive one coil each and the third module interfaces with the servo. Servo cable lengths up to 300 meters (984 feet) are supported with a maximum two-way cable resistance of 15 ohms. Because there are many types of servo coils, a variety of bi-directional current sources are selectable by configuring jumpers.

Another trip override relay, K1, is provided on each terminal board and is driven from the <P> Protection Module. If an emergency overspeed condition is detected in the Protection Module, the K1 relay energizes and disconnects the VSVO servo output from the terminal block and applies a bias to drive the control valve closed. This is only used on simplex applications to protect against the servo amplifier failing high, and is functional only with respect to the servo coils driven from <R>.

Note The primary and emergency overspeed systems can trip the hydraulic solenoids independent of this circuit.

The following table defines the standard resistance of servo coils, and their associated internal resistance, selectable with the terminal board jumpers shown in the figure above. In addition to these standard servo coils, non-standard coils can be driven by using a non-standard jumper setting. For example, an 80 mA, 125 Ω coil can be driven by using a jumper setting 120B.

Note The total resistance is equivalent to the standard setting.

The control valve position is sensed with either a four-wire LVDT or a three-wire linear variable differential reluctance (LVDR). Redundancy implementations for the feedback devices is determined by the application software to allow the maximum flexibility. LVDT/Rs can be mounted up to 300 meters (984 feet) from the turbine control with a maximum two-way cable resistance of 15 Ω.

Each terminal has two LVDT/R excitation sources for simplex applications and four for TMR applications. Excitation voltage is 7 V rms and the frequency is 3.2 kHz with a total harmonic distortion of less than 1% when loaded.

Note The excitation source is isolated from signal common (floating) and is capable of operation at common mode voltages up to 35 V dc, or 35 V rms, 50/60 Hz.

A typical LVDT/R has an output of 0.7 V rms at the zero stroke position of the valve stem, and an output of 3.5 V rms at the designed maximum stoke position (these are reversed in some applications). The LVDT/R input is converted to dc and conditioned with a low pass filter. Diagnostics perform a high/low (hardware) limit check on the input signal and a high/low system (software) limit check.

Two pulse rate inputs connect to a single J5 connector on the front of VSVO. This dedicated connection minimizes noise sensitivity on the pulse rate inputs. Both passive magnetic pickups and active pulse rate transducers (TTL type) are supported by the inputs and are interchangeable without configuration. Pulse rate inputs can be located up to 300 meters (984) from the turbine control cabinet, assuming a shielded-pair cable is used with typically 70 nF single ended or 35 nF differential capacitance and 15 Ω resistance.

Note The maximum short circuit current is approximately 100 mA with a maximum power output of 1 W.

A frequency range of 2 to 30 kHz can be monitored at a normal sampling rate of either 10 or 20 ms. Magnetic pickups typically have an output resistance of 200 Ω and an inductance of 85 mH excluding cable characteristics. The transducer is a high impedance source, generating energy levels insufficient to cause a spark.

340 • VSVO Servo Control GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II

Digital Servo Regulators

The Digital Servo Regulators n = 1-4 in the following figure divides the servo regulators into the software and hardware portions of the control loop. The user can choose the LVDT and pulse rate inputs as the servo feedback. The LVDT input is a 3.2 kHz sinusoidal signal with a magnitude proportional to the position of the electro-mechanical valve that is controlled by the servo output. The pulse rate input is TTL-type signal or a periodic signal that triggers a comparator input. The comparator output transitions are counted by an FPGA on VSVO and converted to a flow rate. For LVDT feedbacks, LVDT1 – 12 are scaled and conditioned in the Position Feedback function of the Digital regulator and can also be independently conditioned by a separated Monitoring function. The asterisk after a block name indicates a more detailed drawing exists to better define the block function. All signal space I/O for the VSVO is identified as either si for system input (the controller reads the signal space variable from the servo) or so for system output (the controller writes the signal space variable to the servo card). Italic text is defined as a configuration parameter that can be changed in the toolbox to redefine the operation of the VSVO. Internal variables, for example Variable_Name, are not visible to the user through the toolbox.

Servo Suicide Control The Servo Suicide Control function compares the absolute value of the filtered servo current error against the configuration parameter value, Sui_Margin. This function determines if the hardware servo current regulator has lost control of the current. If the current feedback is not following the current command, a diagnostic is generated and the servo current output is suicided (disabled and put in a safe state).

1 PulseRate /2 PulseRateMax The Digital Servo Regulator is configured as a flow-rate regulator. A pulse signal with a frequency proportional to the flow-rate of the liquid fuel is the feedback for the 1 PulseRate version of the flow-rate regulator. With the dual input, the larger pulse rate frequency is selected as the feedback for the flow rate regulator. System Limit functions monitor each pulse rate input and are enabled through the configuration parameter, SysLimxEnabl. It can latch the signal space limit flags SysLimxPR1 and/or SysLimxPR2.

1 LVposition, 2 LVposMIN, 2LVposMAX, 3LVposMID The following LVDT feedback configurations are provided for the servo value position loop:

• 1_LVposition – one LVDT signal is used as the position feedback. • 2_LVposMIN – the minimum of two LVDT signals is selected as the position

feedback. • 2_LVposMAX – the maximum of two LVDT signals is selected as the position

feedback. • 3_LVposMID – the median of three LVDT signals is selected as position

feedback.

The LVDT feedback signals are bounded and scaled using the Calibration function. The Calibration function uses the following configuration parameters: position at the minimum end stop in engineering units (EU), MinPOSvalue, and the position at the maximum end stop in EU, MaxPOSvalue. In the calibration mode the LVDT sensors are forced into the minimum and maximum positions. The feedback voltages, MnLVDTx_Vrms and MxLVDTx_Vrm,s are recorded for each of the LVDT feedbacks used. From these values, the internal constants Reg_Sensor_Hdwr_Hi, Reg_Sensor_Hdwr_Lo, Reg_Sensor_Offset, Reg_Sensor_Gain, and Reg_Sensor_End_Stop_Min are calculated. These internal constants are used by the Regulator Calculation Position function.

The Regulator Calculation Position function performs an input boundary check that makes sure the input signal is between the values, Reg_Sensor_Hdwr_Hi and Reg_Sensor_Hdwr_Lo. If the feedback input is out of range a diagnostic alarm is generated. The scaling from volts_rms to position feedback in EU is calculated next. A limit check is then performed on the selected feedback.

4 LV_LM The 4_LV_LM Digital Servo regulator uses four LVDT inputs to calculate the single position feedback required for the servo position loop. The Regulator Calculation Position performs the boundary check for the LVDT input signals. The scaling from volts_rms to position in EU is not calculated, but the volts_rms value for each of the LVDT feedbacks is calculated. The ratio of (A – B) / (A + B) is performed on the LVDT input pairs and scaling is calculated using the input from the Calibration function.

The internal variables, Reg_2LV[A].pos, PosA and Reg_2LV[B].pos, PosB are checked against the configuration parameter limits, MinPOSvalue and MaxPOSvalue in the Position A & B Diagnostic function. Results from PosA, PosB, and the diagnostic Booleans feed the Position Feedback Selection function. Refer to the Position Feedback Selection block diagram to understand the details of the function.

Other differences in the LM servo regulator are the following:

• Gain Modifier function • Lead/Lag filter on the position error • Configurable servo position error output clamp

Diagnostics

Three LEDs at the top of the VSVO front panel show status information. The normal RUN condition is a flashing green, and FAIL is solid red. The third LED is STATUS and is normally off but displays a steady orange if an alarm condition exists on the board. Diagnostic checks include the following:

• The output servo current is out of limits or not responding, which creates a fault. • The regulator feedback (LVDT) signal is out of limits. A fault is created and if

the associated regulator has two sensors, the bad sensor is removed from the feedback calculation and the good sensor is used.

• The servo has suicided. This creates a fault. • The A/D converter calibration voltage is out of limits and a default value is

being used. • The LVDT excitation voltage is out of range. A fault is created • The input signal varies from the voted value by more than the TMR differential

limit. This causes a fault to be created indicating a problem with this sensor input.

• If any one of the above signals go unhealthy a composite diagnostic alarm, L#DIAG_VSVO, occurs. Details of the individual diagnostics are available from the toolbox. The diagnostic signals can be individually latched, and reset with the RESET_DIA signal if they go healthy.

• Connectors JR1, JS1, JT1 on the terminal board have their own ID device that is interrogated by the I/O board. The ID device is a read-only chip coded with the terminal board serial number, board type, revision number, and the plug location. When the chip is read by VSVO and a mismatch is encountered, a hardware incompatibility fault is created.

TSVO Servo Input/Output

Functional Description

The Servo Input/Output (TSVO) terminal board interfaces with two electro-hydraulic servo valves that actuate the steam/fuel valves. Valve position is measured with LVDTs. Two cables connect to VSVO using the J5 plug on the front of VSVO and the J3 or J4 connector on the VME rack. TSVO provides simplex signals through the JR1 connector, and fans out TMR signals to the JR1, JS1, and JT1 connectors. Plugs JD1 or JD2 are for an external trip from the protection module.

Operation

VSVO provides four channels consisting of bi-directional servo current outputs, LVDT position feedback, LVDT excitation, and pulse rate flows inputs. The TSVO provides excitation for, and accepts inputs from, up to six LVDT valve position inputs. There is a choice of one, two, three, or four LVDTs for each servo control loop. If three inputs are used they are available for gas turbine flow measuring applications. These signals come through TSVO and go directly to the VSVO board front at J5.

Each servo output is equipped with an individual suicide relay under firmware control that shorts the VSVO output signal to signal common when de-energized, and recovers to nominal limits after a manual reset command is issued. Diagnostics monitor the output status of each servo voltage, current, and suicide relay.

Each servo output channel can drive one or two-coil servos in simplex applications, or two or three-coil servos in TMR applications. The two-coil TMR applications are for 200# oil gear systems where each of two control modules drive one coil each, and the third control module has no servo coil interface. Servo cable lengths up to 300 meters (984 feet) are supported with a maximum two-way cable resistance of 15 Ω. Because there are many types of servo coils, a variety of bi-directional current sources are selectable by configuring jumpers.

Another trip override relay K1 is provided on each terminal board and is driven from the <P> Protection Module. If an emergency overspeed condition is detected in the Protection Module, the K1 relay energizes and disconnects the VSVO servo output from the terminal block and applies a bias to drive the control valve closed. This is only used on simplex applications to protect against the servo amplifier failing high, and is functional only with respect to the servo coils driven from <R>.

GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II VSVO Servo Control • 375

The following table defines the standard servo coil resistance and their associated internal resistance, selectable with the terminal board jumpers shown in the figure above. In addition to these standard servo coils, it is possible to drive non-standard coils by using a non-standard jumper setting. For example, an 80 mA, 125 Ω coil could be driven by using a jumper setting 120B.

The control valve position is sensed with either a four-wire LVDT or a three-wire LVDR. Redundancy implementations for the feedback devices are determined by the application software to allow the maximum flexibility. LVDT/Rs can be mounted up to 300 meters (984 feet) from the turbine control with a maximum two-way cable resistance of 15 Ω.

Each terminal board has two LVDT/R excitation sources for simplex applications and four for TMR applications. Excitation voltage is 7 V rms and the frequency is 3.2 kHz with a total harmonic distortion of less than 1% when loaded.

Note The excitation source is isolated from signal common (floating) and is capable of operation at common mode voltages up to 35 V dc, or 35 V rms, 50/60 Hz.

A typical LVDT/R has an output of 0.7 V rms at the zero stroke position of the valve stem, and an output of 3.5 V rms at the designed maximum stoke position (these are reversed in some applications). The LVDT/R input is converted to dc and conditioned with a low pass filter. Diagnostics perform a high/low (hardware) limit check on the input signal and a high/low system (software) limit check.

Two pulse rate inputs connect to a single J5 connector on the front of VSVO. This dedicated connection minimizes noise sensitivity on the pulse rate inputs.

Both passive magnetic pickups and active pulse rate transducers (TTL type) are supported by the inputs and are interchangeable without configuration. Pulse rate inputs can be located up to 300 meters (984) from the turbine control cabinet; this assumes shielded-pair cable is used with typically 70 nF single ended or 35 nF differential capacitance and 15 ohms resistance.

A frequency range of 2 to 30 kHz can be monitored at a normal sampling rate of either 10 or 20 ms. Magnetic pickups typically have an output resistance of 200 Ω and an inductance of 85 mH excluding cable characteristics. The transducer is a high impedance source, generating energy levels insufficient to cause a spark.

Note The maximum short circuit current is approximately 100 mA with a maximum power output of 1 W.

Diagnostics

VSVO performs diagnostic checks on the terminal board, including the following:

• If the output servo current is out of limits or not responding, a fault is created. • If the regulator feedback (LVDT) signal is out of limits, a fault is created and if

the associated regulator has two sensors, the bad sensor is removed from the feedback calculation and the good sensor is used.

• If any one of the above signals go unhealthy a composite diagnostic alarm, L#DIAG_VSVO occurs. Details of the individual diagnostics are available from the toolbox. The diagnostic signals can be individually latched, and reset with the RESET_DIA signal if they go healthy.

• Each cable connector on the terminal board has its own ID device that is interrogated by the I/O processor. The ID device is a read-only chip coded with the terminal board serial number, board type, revision number, and the J connector location. When this chip is read by the I/O processor and a mismatch is encountered, a hardware incompatibility fault is created.

Configuration

For a simplex system, jumper JP1 configures the coil current of Servo 1, and jumper JP4 configures the coil current of Servo 2. Refer to the table Servo Coil Ratings for more information.

In a TMR system, each servo output can have three coils.Jumpers JP 1 – 3 configure the coil currentfor Servo 1, and Jumpers JP 4 – 6 configure the coil current for Servo 2. All other configuration is done from the toolbox.

DSVO Simplex Servo Input/Output

Functional Description

The Simplex Servo Input/Output (DSVO) terminal board is a compact terminal board designed for DIN-rail mounting. This board has two servo outputs, I/O for six LVDT position sensors, and two active pulse rate inputs for flow measurement. Servo coil currents ranging from 10 to 120 mA can be selected using jumpers. DSVO connects to the VSVO processor board with a 37-pin cable, which is identical to those used on the larger TSVO board. The terminal boards can be stacked vertically on the DIN-rail to conserve cabinet space. Two DSVO boards can be connected to the VSVO, if required. Only a simplex version of this board is available.

The on-board functions and high frequency decoupling to ground are the same as those on the TSVO. High density Euro-Block type terminal blocks are permanently mounted to the board with six screws for the ground connection (SCOM). Connectors JR1 and J5 connect to signals from on-board ID chips that identify the board to the VSVO for system diagnostic purposes.

Two versions of the DSVO, H1B and H2B, are available. The H1B is a direct replacement for the previous H1A design. The H2B is certified by UL for Class 1 Division 2 applications.

Installation

Mount the plastic holder on the DIN-rail and slide the DSVO board into place. Connect the wires for the servo I/O directly to the terminal block. The Euro-Block type terminal block has 36 terminals (DSVOH1A) or 42 terminals (DSVOH1B,H2B) and is permanently mounted on the terminal board. Typically #18 AWG shielded twisted pair wiring is used. Six screws, 31 – 36, are provided for SCOM (ground) connection, which should be as short as distance as possible.

Note There is no shield termination strip with this design.

Diagnostics

VSVO performs diagnostic checks on DSVO including the following:

• If the output servo current is out of limits or not responding, a fault is created. • If the regulator feedback (LVDT) signal is out of limits, a fault is created and if

the associated regulator has two sensors, the bad sensor is removed from the feedback calculation and the good sensor is used.

• If any one of the above signals go unhealthy a composite diagnostic alarm, L#DIAG_VSVO, occurs. Details of the individual diagnostics are available from the toolbox. The diagnostic signals can be individually latched, and reset with the RESET_DIA signal if they go healthy.

• Connector JR1 on the terminal board has its own ID device that is interrogated by the I/O board. The ID device is a read-only chip coded with the terminal board serial number, board type, revision number, and the connector location. When the chip is read by VSVO and a mismatch is encountered, a hardware incompatibility fault is created.

Configuration

On DSVOH1B, jumpers JP1 and JP2 select the desired coil current and servo valve coil resistance, which varies from 22 W to 1,000 W. The following table shows the coil currents and resistances (for example, jumper 120B provides a ±120 mA coil current).

VTCC Thermocouple Input

Functional Description

The Thermocouple Input (VTCC) board accepts 24 thermocouple inputs. These inputs are wired to the TBTC or DTTC terminal boards. Cables with molded plugs connect the terminal board to the VME rack where the VTCC thermocouple processor board is located. The TBTC can provide both simplex (TBTCH1C) or triple module redundant (TMR) control (TBTCHIB). Two groups of the VTCC provide different temperature ranges optimized for gas turbine control applications (VTCCH1) and general-purpose applications (VTCCH2). The same terminal boards are used with both groups of the VTCC card.

VTCCH1 supports E, J, K, S, and T types of thermocouples and mV inputs. The mV span is -8mV to +45mV.

VTCCH2 supports E, J, K, S, T as well as B, N, and R types of standard thermocouples and mV inputs. The mV span for VTCCH2 is -20mV to +95mV.

Note Input data is transferred over the VME backplane from VTCC to the VCMI and then to the controller.

Operation

Type E, J, K, S, and T thermocouples can be used with VTCCH1, and they can be grounded or ungrounded. Type E, J, K, S, T, B, N and R thermocouples can be used with VTCCH2, and they can be grounded or ungrounded. They can be located up to 300 m (984 ft) from the turbine control cabinet with a maximum two-way cable resistance of 450 Ω. High frequency noise suppression and two cold junction (CJ) reference devices are mounted on the terminal board.

Linearization for individual thermocouple types is performed in software by VTCC. A thermocouple that is determined to be out of the hardware limits is removed from the scanned inputs to prevent adverse affects on other input channels.

Cold Junctions

If both CJ devices are within the configurable limits, then the average of the two is used for CJ compensation. If only one CJ device is within the configurable limits, then that CJ is used for compensation. If neither CJ device is within the configurable limits, then a default value is used. The thermocouple inputs and cold junction inputs are automatically calibrated using the filtered calibration reference and zero voltages.

Note VTCC boards manufactured after software version VTCC-100100C and higher have additional thermocouple and cold junction features. The newly designed boards permit the use of S-type thermocouples, in addition to all previous types. They also provide for a remote CJ compensation feature for thermocouple inputs. This allows the user to select whether CJ compensation is done based on a temperature reading at a remote location or at the terminal board as explained above. The calculations are the same as previous VTCC boards, only the source of the CJ reading changes.

Two CJ references are used per VTCC, one each for connectors J3 and J4. Each reference can be selected as either remote (from VME bus) or local (from associated terminal board, T-type or D-type). All references are then treated as sensor inputs (for example, averaged, limits configured). The two references can be mixed, one local and one remote. CJ signals go into signal space and are available for monitoring. Normally the average of the two is used. Acceptable limits are configured, and if a CJ goes outside the limit, a logic signal is set. A 1 °F error in the CJ compensation causes a 1 °F error in the thermocouple reading.

Hard coded limits are set at 32 to 158 °F, and if a CJ goes outside this range, it is regarded as bad. Most CJ failures are open or short circuit. If one CJ fails, the good one is used. If both CJs fail, the backup value is used. This backup value can be derived from CJ readings on other terminal boards, or can be the configured default value.

Diagnostics

Three LEDs at the top of the front panel provide status information. The normal run condition is a flashing green, and fail is a solid red. The third LED shows a steady orange if a diagnostic alarm condition exists in the board. Diagnostic checks include the following:

• Each thermocouple type has hardware limit checking based on preset (non-configurable) high and low levels set near the ends of the operating range. If this limit is exceeded a logic signal is set and the input is no longer scanned. If any one of the 24 inputs hardware limits is set it creates a composite diagnostic alarm, L3DIAG_VTCC, referring to the entire board. The diagnostic signals can be individually latched, and then reset with the RESET_DIA signal.

• Each thermocouple input has system limit checking based on configurable high and low levels. These limits can be used to generate alarms, and can be configured for enable/disable, and as latching/non-latching. RESET_SYS resets the out of limit signals.

• In TMR systems, if one signal varies from the voted value (median value) by more than a predetermined limit, that signal is identified and a fault is created. This can provide early indication of a problem developing in one channel.

• Each terminal board and I/O board has its own ID device, which is interrogated by the I/O board. The board ID is coded into a read-only chip containing the terminal board serial number, board type, revision number, and the JA1/JB1 connector location. When the chip is read by the I/O processor and a mismatch is encountered, a hardware incompatibility fault is created. Details of diagnostic faults are in the Alarms section of this document.

TBTC Thermocouple Input

Functional Description

The Thermocouple Input (TBTC) terminal board accepts 24-type E, J, K, S, or T thermocouple inputs. It accepts additional B, N and R types of thermocouple inputs only when used with PTCCH2 in Mark VIe. These inputs are wired to two barrier-type blocks on the terminal board. TBTC communicates with the I/O processor through DC-type connectors. Two types of the TBTC are available, as follows:

• TBTCH1C for simplex applications has two DC-type connectors. • TBTCH1B for TMR applications has six DC-type connectors.

Mark VI Systems

In the Mark VI system, TBTC works with the VTCC processor and supports simplex and TMR applications. One TBTCH1C connects to the VTCC with two cables. In TMR systems, TBTCH1B connects to three VTCC boards with six cables.

Mark VIe Systems

In the Mark VIe system, TBTC works with the PTCC I/O pack and supports simplex, dual, and TMR applications. In simplex systems, two PTCC packs plug into the TBTCH1C for a total of 24 inputs. With the TBTCH1B, one, two, or three PTCC packs can be connected, supporting a variety of system configurations.

• Simplex pack – 12 inputs • Simplex packs – 24 inputs • TMR packs – 12 inputs

Page 399: Geh-6421_vol_ii Mk Vi System Guide

396 • VTCC Thermocouple Input GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II

The Thermocouple Input (TBTC) terminal board accepts 24-type E, J, K, S, or T thermocouple inputs for PTCCH1 pack and 24-type E, J, K, S,T,B,N or R thermocouple inputs for PTCCH2 pack.

Thermocouple Terminal Board, I/O Processor, and Cabling

Installation

Connect the thermocouple wires directly to the two I/O terminal blocks. These removable blocks are mounted on the terminal board and held down with two screws. Each block has 24 terminals accepting up to #12 AWG wires. A shield terminal strip attached to chassis ground is located on the left side of each terminal block.

In Mark VI systems, cable the TBTC J-type connectors to the I/O processors in the VME rack.

In Mark VIe systems, plug the I/O packs directly into the TBTC J-type connectors. The number of cables or I/O packs depends on the level of redundancy required.

GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II VTCC Thermocouple Input • 397

Operation

The 24 thermocouple inputs can be grounded or ungrounded. They can be located up to 300 m (984 ft) from the turbine control panel with a maximum two-way cable resistance of 450 Ω. TBTC features high-frequency noise suppression and two CJ reference devices, as shown in following figure. The I/O processor performs the analog-to-digital conversion and the linearization for individual thermocouple types.

In Mark VI simplex systems using TBTCH1C, one VTCC is used. In Mark VIe simplex systems, two PTCC packs plug into TBTC, obtaining 24 thermocouple inputs.

Cold Junctions

The CJ signals go into signal space and are available for monitoring. Normally the average of the two is used. Acceptable limits are configured, and if a CJ goes outside the limit, a logic signal is set. A 1 °F error in the CJ compensation will cause a 1 °F error in the thermocouple reading.

Hard-coded limits are set at -40 to 85°C (-40 to +185 ºF), and if a CJ goes outside this, it is regarded as bad. Most CJ failures are open or short circuit. If the CJ is declared bad, the backup value is used. This backup value can be derived from CJ readings on other terminal boards, or can be the configured default value (refer to signals in the section, Configuration).

Fault detection High/low (hardware) limit check Monitor readings from all TCs, CJs, calibration voltages, and calibration zero readings.

Diagnostics

Diagnostic tests to components on the terminal boards are as follows:

• Each thermocouple type has hardware-limit checking based on preset (non-configurable) high and low levels set near the ends of the operating range. If this limit is exceeded, a logic signal is set and the input is no longer scanned. If any one of the inputs hardware limits is set, it creates a composite diagnostic alarm.

• Each terminal board connector has its own ID device that is interrogated by the I/O board. The board ID is coded into a read-only chip containing the terminal board serial number, board type, revision number, and the J connector location. If a mismatch is encountered, a hardware incompatibility fault is created.

• When operating with the I/O processor a very small current is injected into each thermocouple path. This is done to detect open circuits and is of a polarity to create a low temperature reading should a thermocouple open.

DTTC Simplex Thermocouple Input

Functional Description

The Simplex Thermocouple Input (DTTC) terminal board is a compact terminal board designed for DIN-rail mounting. The board has 12 thermocouple inputs and connects to the VTCC thermocouple processor board with a single 37-pin cable. This cable is identical to the one used on the larger TBTC terminal board. The on-board signal conditioning and CJ reference are identical to those on the TBTC board.

Note An on-board ID chip identifies the board to the VTCC for system diagnostic purposes.

Two DTTC boards can be connected to the VTCC for a total of 24 inputs. High- density Euro-Block type terminal blocks are permanently mounted to the board with two screw connections for the ground connection (SCOM). Every third screw connection is for the shield. Only the simplex version of the board is available. The terminal boards can be stacked vertically on the DIN-rail to conserve cabinet space.

Note The DTTC board does not work with the PTCC I/O pack.

Page 403: Geh-6421_vol_ii Mk Vi System Guide

400 • VTCC Thermocouple Input GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II

Installation

Note Shield screws are provided on this board and are internally connected to SCOM.

Mount the plastic holder on the DIN-rail and slide the DTTC board into place. Connect the thermocouples wires directly to the terminal block. The Euro-Block type terminal block has 42 terminals and is permanently mounted on the terminal board. Typically #18 AWG wires are used. Two screws, 41 and 42, are provided for the SCOM (ground) connection, which should be as short a distance as possible.

Diagnostics

Diagnostic tests are made on the terminal board as follows:

• Each thermocouple type has hardware limit checking based on preset (non-configurable) high and low levels set near the ends of the operating range. If VTCC finds this limit is exceeded a logic signal is set and the input is no longer scanned. If any one of the input hardware limits is set it creates a composite diagnostic alarm, L3DIAG_VTCC, referring to the entire board.

• Each terminal board cable has its own ID device that is interrogated by VTCC. The board ID is coded into a read-only chip containing the terminal board serial number, board type, and revision number. If a mismatch is encountered, a hardware incompatibility fault is created.

• When operating with the I/O processor a very small current is injected into each thermocouple path. This is done to detect open circuits and is of a polarity to create a high temperature reading should a thermocouple open.

Details of the individual diagnostics are available from the toolbox. The diagnostic signals can be individually latched, and then reset with the RESET_DIA signal.

Configuration

There are no jumpers or hardware settings on the board.

GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II VTUR Turbine Specific Primary Trip • 403

VTUR Primary Turbine Protection

Functional Description

The Primary Turbine Protection (VTUR) board, has the following functions:

• Measures the turbine speed with four passive pulse rate devices and passes the signal to the controller, which generates the primary overspeed trip

• Provides automatic generator synchronizing and closes the main breaker • Monitors induced shaft voltage and current

• Monitors eight Geiger-Mueller® flame detectors on gas turbine applications. The detectors connect to TRPG and use 335 V dc, 0.5 mA from an external supply.

• Controls three primary overspeed trip relays on the TRPx terminal board. The controller generates the trip signal, which is sent to VTUR and then to TRPx to trip the emergency solenoids. The turbine overspeed trip can come from VTUR or VPRO. TRPx contains nine magnetic relays to interface with three trip solenoids, known as the electrical trip devices (ETD). Nine relays are used in TMR systems, three in simplex systems.

Board Versions

There are two board versions as follows:

• VTURH1 drives three trip solenoids using one TRPx board and accepts eight flame detectors

• VTURH2 is a two-slot version that drives six trip solenoids using two TRPx boards, but only accepts eight flame detectors

Operation

In simplex applications, up to four pulse rate signals can be used to measure turbine speed. Generator and bus voltages are brought into VTUR for automatic synchronizing in conjunction with the turbine controller and excitation system. TTUR has permissive generator synchronizing relays and controls the main breaker relay coil 52G. Shaft voltage is picked up with brushes and monitored along with the current to the machine case.

Note VTUR contains the pulse rate to digital circuits. VTUR alarms high voltages and tests the integrity and continuity of the circuitry.

VTUR Turbine Speed Inputs and Generator Synchronizing, TMR

Speed Pickups

Note The median speed signal is used for speed control and for the primary overspeed trip signal.

VTUR interfaces with four passive, magnetic speed inputs with a frequency range of 2 to 20,000 Hz. Using passive pickups on a sixty- tooth wheel, circuit sensitivity allows detection of 2-RPM turning gear speed to determine if the turbine is stopped (zero speed). If automatic turning gear engagement is provided in the turbine control, this signal initiates turning gear operation.

Page 410: Geh-6421_vol_ii Mk Vi System Guide

GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II VTUR Turbine Specific Primary Trip • 407

The primary overspeed trip calculations are performed in the controller using algorithms similar to (but not the same as) those in the VPRO protection board. The fast trip option used on gas turbines runs in VTUR.

Primary Trip Solenoid Interface

The normal primary overspeed trip is calculated in the controller and passed to the VTUR and then to the chosen primary trip terminal board. TRPx contains relays to interface with the ETDs. TRPx typically works in conjunction with an emergency trip board (TREx) to form the primary and emergency sides of the interface to the ETDs. VTUR supports up to three ETDs driven from each TRPx/TREx combination.

VTUR supports the following trip boards:

• TRPG is targeted at gas turbine applications and works in conjunction with the TREG board for emergency trip.

• TRPS is used for small and medium size steam turbine systems and works in conjunction with the TRES board for emergency trip.

• TRPL is intended for large steam turbine systems and works in conjunction with the TREL board for emergency trip.

Note Additional trip boards are being developed for other specific applications.

To support trip board operation, VTUR provides discrete inputs used to monitor signals such as trip relay position, synchronizing relay coil drive, and ETD power status.

Fast Overspeed Trip

In special cases where a faster overspeed trip system is required, the VTUR Fast Overspeed Trip algorithms can be enabled. The system employs a speed measurement algorithm using a calculation for a predetermined tooth wheel. Two overspeed algorithms are available as follows:

• PR_Single uses two redundant VTURs by splitting up the two redundant PR transducers, one to each board. PR_Single provides redundancy and is the preferred algorithm for LM gas turbines.

• PR_Max uses one VTUR connected to the two redundant PR transducers. PR_Max allows broken shaft and deceleration protection without the risk of a nuisance trip if one transducer is lost.

The fast trips are linked to the output trip relays with an OR-gate. VTUR computes the overspeed trip instead of the controller, so the trip is very fast. The time from the overspeed input to the completed relay dropout is 30 ms or less.

Shaft Voltage and Current Monitor

Bearings can be damaged by the flow of electrical current from the shaft to the case. This current can occur for several reasons:

• A static voltage can be caused by droplets of water being thrown off the last stage buckets in a steam turbine. This voltage builds up until a discharge occurs through the bearing oil film.

• An ac ripple on the dc generator field can produce an ac voltage on the shaft with respect to ground through the capacitance of the field winding and insulation. Note that both of these sources are weak, so high impedance instrumentation is used to measure these voltages with respect to ground.

• A voltage can be generated between the ends of the generator shaft due to dissymmetries in the generator magnetic circuits. If the insulated bearings on the generator shaft breakdown, the current flows from one end of the shaft through the bearings and frame to the other end. Brushes can be used to discharge damaging voltage buildup, and a shunt should be used to monitor the current flow.

The turbine control continuously monitors the shaft to ground voltage and current, and alarms excessive levels. There is an ac test mode and a dc test mode. The ac test applies an ac voltage to test the integrity of the measuring circuit. The dc test checks the continuity of the external circuit, including the brushes, turbine shaft, and the interconnecting wire.

Note The dc test is driven from the R controller only. If the R controller is down, this test cannot be run successfully.

Flame Detectors

When used with TRPG, VTUR monitors signals from eight Geiger-Mueller flame detectors. With no flame present, the detector charges up to the supply voltage. The presence of the flame causes the detector to charge to a level and then discharge through TRPG. As the flame intensity increases the discharge frequency increases. When the detector discharges, VTUR and TRPG convert the discharged energy into a voltage pulse. The pulse rate varies from 0 to 1,000 pulses/sec. These voltage pulses are fanned out to all three modules. Voltage pulses above 2.5 V generate a logic high, and the pulse rate over a 40 ms time period is measured in a counter.

Automatic Synchronizing

All synchronizing connections are located on the TTUR terminal board. The generator and bus voltages are provided by two, single phase, potential transformers (PTs) with a fused secondary output supplying a nominal 115 V rms. Measurement accuracy between the zero crossing for the bus and generator voltage circuits is 1 degree.

Turbine speed is matched against the bus frequency. The generator and bus voltages are matched by adjusting the generator field excitation voltage from commands sent between the turbine controller and the EX2000 over the Unit Data Highway (UDH). A command is given to close the breaker when all permissions are satisfied. The breaker is predicted to close within the calculated phase/slip window. Feedback of the actual breaker closing time is provided by a 52G/a contact from the generator breaker (not an auxiliary relay) to update the database. An internal K25A sync check relay is provided on the TTUR; the independent backup phase/slip calculation for this relay is performed in the <P> protection module. Diagnostics monitor the relay coil and contact closures to determine if the relay properly energizes or de-energizes upon command.

Page 414: Geh-6421_vol_ii Mk Vi System Guide

GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II VTUR Turbine Specific Primary Trip • 411

Synchronizing Modes

There are three basic synchronizing modes. Traditionally, these modes are selected from a generator panel mounted selector switch:

• Off The breaker cannot be closed by the controller. The check relay will not pick up.

• Manual The operator initiates breaker close, which is still subject to the K25A Sync Check contacts driven by the VPRO. The manual close is initiated from an external contact on the generator panel, normally connected in series with a sync mode in manual contact.

• Auto The system automatically matches voltage and speed, and then closes the breaker at the right time to hit top dead center on the synchroscope. All three of the following functions must agree for this closure to occur:

K25A - sync check relay, checks the allowable slip/phase window, from VPRO

K25 - auto sync relay, provides precision synchronization, from VTUR

K25P - sync sequence permissive, checks the turbine sequence status, from VTUR

The K25A relay should close before the K25 or else the sync check function will interfere with the auto sync optimizing. If this sequence is not executed, a diagnostic alarm is posted, a lockout signal is set true in signal space, and the application code may prevent any further attempts to synchronize until a reset is issued and the correct coordination is set up. Details of the various checks are discussed in the following sections.

Sync Check

The K25A sync check function is based on phase lock loop techniques. The VPRO performs the calculations for this function, but interfaces to the breaker close circuit are located on the TTUR board, not TPRO. Limit checks are performed against adjustable constants as follows:

• Generator under-voltage • Bus under-voltage • Voltage error • Frequency error (slip), with a maximum value of 0.33 Hz, typically set to 0.27

Hz • Phase error with a maximum value of 30 °, typically set to 10 °.

In addition, sync check arms logic to enable the function, and provides bypass logic for deadbus closure. The sync window below is based on typical settings:

-0.27 Hz Typical Sync Window

Page 415: Geh-6421_vol_ii Mk Vi System Guide

412 • VTUR Turbine Specific Primary Trip GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II

Auto Sync

The Auto Sync K25 function uses zero voltage crossing techniques. It compensates for the breaker time delay, which is defined by two adjustable constants with logic selection between the two (for two breaker applications). VTUR performs the calculations for phase, slip, acceleration, and anticipated time lead for the breaker delay. The time delay parameter is adjusted (up to certain limits) based on the measured breaker close time.

In addition, auto sync arms logic to enable the function, and bypasses logic to provide for deadbus or manual closure. The auto sync projected sync window is shown below, where positive slip indicates that the generator frequency is higher than the bus frequency.

Gen. Lag Gen. Lead (phase degrees)

Auto Sync Projected Window

The projected window is based on current phase, current slip, and current acceleration. The generator must currently be lagging and have been lagging for the last 10 consecutive cycles, and projected (anticipated) to be leading when the breaker actually reaches closure. Auto sync does not allow the breaker to close with negative slip; speed matching typically aims at around + 0.12 Hz slip.

A special synchronization screen is available on the HMI with a real-time graphical phase display and control pushbutton. The display items are listed in table.

• If feedback from the solenoid relay drivers differs with the control signal a fault is created

• If feedback from the relay contacts differs with the control signal a fault is created

• Loss of solenoid power creates a fault • High and low flame detector voltage creates a fault • Slow synch check relay, slow auto synch relay, and locked up K25 relay; all of

these condition creates a fault • If any one of the above signals goes unhealthy, a composite diagnostic alarm

L3DIAG_VTUR occurs. The diagnostic signals can be individually latched and then reset with the RESET_DIA signal if they go healthy

• Terminal board connectors JR1, JS1, JT1, JR5, JS5, JT5 have their own ID device that is interrogated by the I/O board. The ID device is a read-only chip coded with the terminal board serial number, board type, revision number, and plug location. When the chip is read by VTUR and a mismatch is encountered, a hardware incompatibility fault is created

24 Firmware/Hardware Incompatibility Invalid terminal board connected to VME I/O board

30 ConfigCompatCode mismatch; Firmware: [ ]; Tre:[ ] The configuration compatibility code that the firmware is expecting is different than what is in the tre file for this board

A tre file has been installed that is incompatible with the firmware on the I/O board. Either the tre file or firmware must change. Contact the factory.

31 IOCompatCode mismatch; Firmware: [ ]; Tre:[ ] The I/O compatibility code that the firmware is expecting is different than what is in the tre file for this board

A tre file has been installed that is incompatible with the firmware on the I/O board. Either the tre file or firmware must change. Contact the factory.

32-37 Solenoid [ ] Relay Driver Feedback Incorrect. Solenoid (1-6) relay driver feedback is incorrect as compared to the command; VTUR cannot drive the relay correctly until the hardware failure is corrected

The solenoid relay driver on the TRPG/L/S board has failed, or the cabling between VTUR and TRPG/L/S is incorrect.

38-43 Solenoid [ ] Contact Feedback Incorrect. Solenoid (1-6) relay contact feedback is incorrect as compared to the command; VTUR cannot drive the relay correctly until the hardware failure is corrected

The solenoid relay driver or the solenoid relay on the TRPG/L/S board has failed, or the cabling between VTUR and TRPG/L/S is incorrect.

44-45 TRPG [ ] Solenoid Power Absent. P125/24 V dc power is not present on TRPG terminal board; VTUR cannot energize trip solenoids 1 through 3, or 4 through 6 until power is present

Power may not be coming into TRPG/L/S on the J1 connector, or the monitoring circuit on TRPG/L/S is bad, or the cabling between TRPG/L/S and VTUR is at fault.

46,48 TRPG [ ] Flame Detector Volts Low at Y Volts. TRPG 1 or 2 flame detect voltage is low; the ability to detect flame by detectors 1 through 8, or 9 through 16 is questionable

Power comes into TRPG through J3, J4, and J5. If the voltage is less than 314.9 V dc, this should be investigated. If the voltage is above this value, the monitoring circuitry on TRPG or the cabling between TRPG and VTUR is suspect.

47,49 TRPG [ ] Flame Detector Volts High at Y Volts. TRPG 1 or 2 flame detect voltage is high; the ability to detect flame by detectors 1 through 8, or 9 through 16 is questionable because the excitation voltage is too high and the devices may be damaged

This power comes into TRPG through J3, J4, and J5. If the voltage is greater than 355.1 V dc, this should be investigated. If the voltage is below this value, the monitoring circuitry on TRPG or the cabling between TRPG and VTUR is suspect.

50 L3BKRGXS – Synch Check Relay is Slow. The auto synchronization algorithm has detected that during synchronization with no dead bus closure (synch bypass was false) the auto synch relay I3BKRGES closed before synch relay I3BKRGEX closed

The synch check relay I3BKRGXS, known as K25A, on TTUR is suspect; also the cabling between VTUR and TTUR may be at fault.

418 • VTUR Turbine Specific Primary Trip GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II

Fault Fault Description Possible Cause

51 L3BKRGES – Auto Synch Relay is Slow. The auto synchronization algorithm has detected that the auto synch relay I3BKRGES had not closed by two cycle times after the command I25 was given

The Auto synch relay I3BKRGES also known as K25, on TTUR is suspect; also the cabling between VTUR and TTUR may be at fault.

52-53 Breaker [ ] Slower than Adjustment Limit Allows. Breaker 1 or 2 close time was measured to be slower than the auto synch algorithms adaptive close time adjustment limit allows

The breaker is experiencing a problem, or the operator should consider changing the configuration (both nominal close time and self-adaptive limit in ms can be configured).

54 Synchronization Trouble - K25 Relay Locked Up. The auto synchronization algorithm has determined that the auto synch relay I3BKRGES, also known as K25, is locked up. Auto synch will not be possible until the relay is replaced

K25 on TTUR is most likely stuck closed, or the contacts are welded.

55 Card and Configuration File Incompatibility. You are attempting to install a VTUR board that is not compatible with the VTUR TRE file you have installed

Install the correct TRE file from the factory

56 Terminal Board on J5X and Config File Incompatibility. VTUR detects that the terminal board that is connected to it through J5 is different than the board that is configured

Check your configuration.

57 Terminal Board on J3 and Config File Incompatibility. VTUR detects that the terminal board that is connected to it through J3 is different than the board that is configured

59 Terminal Board on J4A and Config File Incompatibility. VTUR detects that the terminal board that is connected to it through J4A is different than the board that is configured

Check your configuration.

60 Terminal Board TTUR and card VTUR Incompatibility. VTUR detects that the TTUR connected to it is an incompatible hardware revision

The TTUR or VTUR must be changed to a compatible combination.

TTURH1B Primary Turbine Protection Input

Functional Description

The Primary Turbine Protection Input (TTURH1B) terminal board works with VTUR and has the following inputs and outputs:

• Twelve passive pulse rate devices sensing a toothed wheel to measure the turbine speed

• Generator voltage and bus voltage signals from potential transformers • 125 V dc output to the main breaker coil for automatic generator synchronizing • Inputs from the shaft voltage and current sensors to measure induced shaft

voltage and current

TTUR has three relays, K25, K25P, and K25A, that all have to close to provide 125 V dc power to close the main breaker, 52G. The speed signal cable to VTUR uses the JR5 connector, and the other signals use the JR1 connector. For TMR systems, signals fan out to the JR5, JS5, JT5, JR1, JS1, and JT1 connectors.

Mark VI Systems

In the Mark* VI system, the TTUR works with the VTUR processor and supports simplex and TMR applications. In TMR systems, TTURH1B connects to three VTUR boards.

Note TTURH1B does not support I/O packs, see Mark VIe below.

Mark VIe Systems

For the Mark VIe system, a new design board, the TTURH1C, is used.

Note This document does not describe TTURH1C. For details, refer to GEI-100575 PTUR Turbine Specific Primary Trip.

Diagnostics

VTUR makes diagnostic tests on the terminal board and connections as follows:

• Feedback from the solenoid relay drivers; if they do not agree with the control signal a fault is created.

• Feedback from the relay contacts; if they do not agree with the control signal a fault is created.

• Loss of solenoid power, which creates a fault. • Slow synch check relay, slow auto synch relay, and locked up K25 relay; all of

these create a fault. • If any one of the above signals goes unhealthy, a composite diagnostic alarm

L3DIAG_VTUR occurs. The diagnostic signals can be individually latched and then reset with the RESET_DIA signal if they go healthy.

• Terminal board connectors JR1, JS1, JT1, JR5, JS5, JT5 have their own ID device that is interrogated by the I/O board. The ID device is a read-only chip coded with the terminal board serial number, board type, revision number, and plug location. When the chip is read by VTUR and a mismatch is encountered, a hardware incompatibility fault is created.

Configuration

Jumpers JP1 and JP2 select either simplex or TMR for relay drivers K25 and K25P. There are no switches on the board.

TRPG Turbine Primary Trip

Functional Description

The Gas Turbine Primary Trip (TRPG) terminal board is controlled by the Primary Turbine Protection controller (VTUR or PTUR). TRPG contains nine magnetic relays in three voting circuits to interface with three trip solenoids (ETDs). The TRPG works in conjunction with the TREG to form the primary and emergency sides of the interface to the ETDs. TRPG also accommodates inputs from eight Geiger-Mueller® flame detectors for gas turbine applications. There are two board types as follows:

• The H1A and H1B version for TMR applications has three voting relays per trip solenoid.

Operation

The I/O pack/board provides the primary trip function by controlling the relays on TRPG, which trip the main protection solenoids. In TMR applications, the three inputs are voted in hardware using a relay ladder logic two-out-of-three voting circuit. The I/O pack/board monitors the current flow in its relay driver control line to determine its energize or de-energize vote/status of the relay coil contact status. Supply voltages are monitored for diagnostic purposes. A normally closed contact from each relay on TRPG is monitored by the diagnostics to determine its proper operation.

TRPG and Connections to Controller and Trip Solenoids

Page 433: Geh-6421_vol_ii Mk Vi System Guide

430 • VTUR Turbine Specific Primary Trip GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II

Note A metal oxide varister (MOV) and a current limiting resistor are used in each ETD circuit

The primary overspeed trip comes from the controller and is passed to the I/O pack/board, and then to TRPG. TRPG works in conjunction with the TREG board, which is controlled by the emergency overspeed system. This TRPG/TREG combination can drive three ETDs.

Flame Detectors

The primary protection system monitors signals from eight Geiger-Mueller® flame detectors. With no flame present, the detector charges up to the supply voltage. The presence of flame causes the detector to charge to a level and then discharge through TRPG. As the flame intensity increases, the discharge frequency increases. When the detector discharges, the I/O pack/board and TRPG convert the discharged energy into a voltage pulse. The pulse rate varies from 0 to 1,000 pulses/sec. These voltage pulses are fanned out to all three modules. Voltage pulses above 2.5 volts generate a logic high, and the pulse rate over a 40 ms time period is measured in a counter.

Diagnostics

The I/O board runs the TRPG diagnostics. These include feedback from the trip solenoid relay driver and contact, solenoid power bus, and the flame detector excitation voltage too low or too high. A diagnostic alarm is created if any one of the signals go unhealthy (beyond limits). Connectors JR1, JS1, and JT1 on the terminal board have their own ID device, which is interrogated by the I/O board, and if a mismatch is encountered, a hardware incompatibility fault is created. The ID device is a read-only chip coded with the terminal board serial number, board type, revision number, and the plug location.

Configuration

There are no jumpers or hardware settings on the board.

TRPL Turbine Primary Trip

Functional Description

The Large Steam Turbine Primary Trip (TRPL) terminal board is used for the primary overspeed protection of large steam turbines. TRPL is controlled by the turbine Primary Turbine Protection controller (VTUR or PTUR), and contains nine magnetic relays in three voting circuits to interface with three trip solenoids (ETDs). TRPL works in conjunction with the TREL terminal board to form the primary and emergency sides of the interface to the ETDs. These two terminal boards are used in a similar way as TRPG and TREG are used on gas turbine applications.

Up to three trip solenoids can be connected between the TREL and TRPL terminal boards. TREL provides the positive side of the 125 V dc to the solenoids and TRPL provides the negative side. In addition, two manual emergency stop functions can be connected.

Mark VI Systems

In the Mark* VI system, the TRPL works with the VTUR board and only supports TMR systems applications. Cables with molded plugs connect TRPL to the VME rack where the VTUR board is located.

Mark VIe Systems

In the Mark VIe system, the TRPL is controlled by the PTUR I/O packs on TTURH1C and only supports TMR applications. The I/O packs plug into the D-type connectors on TTURH1C, which is cabled to TRPL.

Page 435: Geh-6421_vol_ii Mk Vi System Guide

432 • VTUR Turbine Specific Primary Trip GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II

Installation

Connect the wires for the three trip solenoids directly to the first I/O terminal block. Connect the wires for the primary emergency stop and optional secondary emergency stop to the second terminal block. Connect the trip solenoid power to plugs JP1, JP2, and JP3. The wiring connections are shown in the following figure.

Install a jumper across terminals 9 and 11 for the PTR3 trip. If a second emergency stop is required, remove the jumper from terminals 46 and 47 and connect the wires here.

Operation

TRPL is used for TMR applications only. Three separate power buses, PwrA, PwrB, and PwrC for solenoid power, are brought in through connectors JP1, JP2, and JP3, and then distributed to TREL through connector J2.

The power buses have a nominal voltage of 125 V dc (70 to 145 V dc) or 24 V dc (18 to 32 V dc). The board includes power bus monitoring (three buses). The maximum current per bus is 3 A.

Page 436: Geh-6421_vol_ii Mk Vi System Guide

GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II VTUR Turbine Specific Primary Trip • 433

Each of the three trip solenoids is controlled by three relays using 2/3 contact voting. The relay output rating (for 100,000 operations) is as follows:

• At 24 V dc, 3 A, L/R = 100 ms, with suppression • At 125 V dc, 1.0 A, L/R = 100 ms, with suppression

The trip circuits include solenoid suppression, associated solenoid voltage monitoring, and trip relay contact monitoring. In the TRPL, the hardwired trip (E-STOP) and associated monitoring provides approximately 6.6 V dc to the I/O board when the K4 relays are picked up.

TRPS Turbine Primary Trip

Functional Description

The Small Steam Turbine Primary Trip (TRPS) terminal board is used for the primary overspeed protection of small and medium size steam turbines. TRPS is controlled by the Primary Turbine Protection controller (VTUR or PTUR), and contains three magnetic relays to interface with three trip solenoids (ETDs). TRPS works in conjunction with the TRES terminal board to form the primary and emergency sides of the interface to the ETDs. These two terminal boards are used in a similar way as TRPG and TREG are used on gas turbine applications, except with the following differences:

• Two-out-of-three voting is done in the relay drivers and not using relay contacts as with TRPG and TRPL.

• In a simplex application, the voting is bypassed and the relay drivers are controlled by a single signal from JA1.

• There are no economizing relays. • There are no flame detector inputs.

Diagnostics

Note The ID device is a read-only chip coded with the terminal board serial number, board type, revision number, and the plug location.

The I/O controller runs the TRPx diagnostics. These include feedback from the trip solenoid relay driver and contact, solenoid voltage, and solenoid power bus. A diagnostic alarm is created if any one of the signals goes unhealthy (beyond limits).

The Jx1 connectors on the terminal board have their own ID device, which is interrogated by the I/O board, and if a mismatch is encountered, a hardware incompatibility fault is created.

Configuration

There are no switches or hardware settings on the terminal board. Terminals 46 and 47 must use a jumper if only one manual emergency stop is required; remove jumper if secondary E-Stop is used.

TTSA Trip Servo Interface

Functional Description

The Trip Servo Interface (TTSA) terminal board provides four sets of power resistors in a configuration to support bipolar currents in two-coil trip servos. All connections to the board are made through pluggable barrier terminal strips. The board is the functional equivalent of the 194B5725 Servo Module in a smaller physical design. Power ratings are adequate to withstand a high DC line of 145 V dc and zero coil impedance.

Mark VI and Mark VIe Systems

The TTSA function is independent of the control in use and is compatible with Mark V, Mark VI, and Mark VIe.

External DualCoil Servo

External DualCoil Servo

External DualCoil Servo

Operation

Fixed 125 V nominal dc power is applied to terminals 11 (positive) and 02 (negative). With no other power, a trip current is applied to the external solenoid coil pair with magnitude equal to ½ V dc / (10k + parallel solenoid impedance). If a 1 Ω servo coil is used and V dc is 125 V, the current in each coil equals ½ * 125 / (10,000 + 500) = 5.95 mA.

When running current is desired in the servo coils, positive dc is applied to the TS#-POS terminal and negative dc is applied to the TS#-NEG terminal. This causes a reverse current in the coil with magnitude equal to [½ V dc / (4.4k + parallel solenoid impedance)] trip current. For the previous example, this equals [½ * 125 / (4,400 + 500)] – 5.95 mA = 6.8 mA.

DTUR Simplex Pulse Rate Input

Functional Description

The Simplex Pulse Rate Input (DTUR) terminal board is a compact pulse-rate terminal board designed for DIN-rail mounting. The board accepts four passive pulse-rate transducers (magnetic pickups) for speed and flow measurement. It connects to the VTUR processor board with a 37-pin cable and a 15-pin cable. These cables are identical to those used on the larger TTUR terminal board. VTUR only accommodates one DTUR board.

Note DTUR does not work with the Mark VIe system.

Note Only the simplex version is available.

Installation

Mount the plastic holder on the DIN-rail and slide the DTUR board into place. DTUR boards can be stacked vertically on the DIN-rail to conserve cabinet space. Connect the wires for the magnetic pickups directly to the terminal block, which has 36 terminals. Typically #18 AWG shielded twisted pair wiring is used. Two screws, 35 and 36, are provided for the SCOM (ground) connection, which should be as short a distance as possible. Connect DTUR to VTUR using the JR1 and JR5 connectors.

Note Only the JR5 cable carries signals to VTUR.

DRLY Simplex Relay Output

Functional Description

The Simplex Relay Output (DRLY) terminal board is a compact relay output terminal board designed for wall mounting (not DIN-rail mounting). The board has 12 form-C dry contact output relays and connects to the VCCC, VCRC, or VTUR processor board with a single cable. The 37-pin cable connector is identical to those used on the larger TRLY terminal board. Two DRLY boards can be connected to VCCC, VCRC, or VTUR for a total of 24 contact outputs. Only a simplex version of this board is available.

There are two versions of the DRLY terminal board:

• H1A has higher powered relay contacts than H1B. • H1B is suitable for use in UL listing for Class I, Division 2 Hazardous

(classified) locations.

Note DRLY does not work with the PDOA I/O Pack.

Installation

Note DLRY does not have a shield terminal strip.

Mount the DRLY board by fastening screws to wall through the four mounting holes in the corners of metal support plate. Connect the wires for the 12 relay outputs directly to the odd-numbered screws on the terminal blocks. The high-density Euro-Block type terminal blocks plug into the numbered receptacles on the board. The two screws on TB2 are provided for the SCOM (chassis ground) connection, which should be as short a distance as possible.

Note SCOM, TB2, must be connected to chassis ground.

GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II VVIB Vibration Monitor Board • 451

VVIB Vibration Monitor

Functional Description

The Vibration Monitor (VVIB) board processes vibration probe signals from the TVIB or DVIB terminal board. Up to 14 probes connect directly to the terminal board. Two TVIB can be cabled to the VVIB processor board. VVIB digitizes the various vibration signals, and sends them over the VME bus to the controller. The Mark* VI system uses Bently Nevada* probes for shaft vibration monitoring. The following vibration probes are compatible:

• Proximity • Velocity • Acceleration • Seismic • Phase

Note If desired, a Bently Nevada 3500 monitoring system can be connected to the terminal board.

Vibration probes are normally used for four protective functions in turbine applications as follows:

Vibration: Proximity probes monitor the peak-to-peak radial displacement of the shaft (the shaft motion in the journal bearing) in two radial directions. This system uses non-contacting probes and Proximitors®, and detects alarms, trips, and faults.

Rotor Axial Position: A probe is mounted in a bracket assembly off the thrust bearing casing to observe the motion of the thrust collar on the turbine rotor. This system uses non-contacting probes and Proximitors, and detects thrust bearing wear alarms, trips, and faults.

Differential Expansion: This application uses non-contacting probe(s) and Proximitor(s) and detects alarms, trips, and faults for excessive expansion differential between the rotor and the turbine casing.

Rotor Eccentricity: A probe is mounted adjacent to the shaft to continuously sense the surface and update the turbine control. The calculation of eccentricity is made once per revolution while the turbine is on turning gear. Alarm and fault indications are provided.

There are two types of TVIB terminal boards, H1A and H2A. The H2A type board has BNC connectors allowing portable vibration data gathering equipment to be plugged in for predictive maintenance purposes. Both types have connectors so that Bently Nevada vibration monitoring equipment can be permanently cabled to the terminal board to measure and analyze turbine vibration.

454 • VVIB Vibration Monitor Board GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II

VVIB supplies -28 V dc to the terminal board for Proximitor power. In TMR systems, a diode high-select circuit selects the highest -28 V dc bus for redundancy. Regulators provide individual excitation sources, -23 to -26 V dc, short circuit protected.

Probe inputs are sampled at high speeds up to 4600 samples per second over discrete time periods. The maximum and minimum values are accumulated, the difference is taken (max-min) for vibration, and the results are filtered. The resulting peak-to-peak voltage is scaled to yield engineering units (EU) (peak-to-peak) displacement for Proximitors inputs, EU (pk) for velocity inputs from accelerometers, integrated outputs, seismics, and Velomitors.

Vibration Monitoring Firmware

The Vibration Monitoring on the VVIB in partitioned in the following manner:

Channels 1 – 3:

Channels 1 through 3 can be used for position information from Proximitors, wideband vibration information from Proximitors, accelerometers with integrated outputs, Velomitors, and Seismics. 1X and 2X information can be derived from Proximitors viewing axial vibration information when a Keyphasor® probe is used. Tracking filters are normally used in LM applications with accelerometers.

Gapx_Vibx Vibration Filtering section runs the low-pass filter for the gap calculation, the wideband vibration filter, and the maximum / minimum detect for the peak-to-peak calculation at a 4.6 kHz rate and 2.3 kHz rate if input channels 14 through 21 are configured as vibration channels. The Gap Scaling and Limit Check runs at the frame rate. This function converts the gap value from volts to the desired EU. The system limit check provides two detection limits and Boolean outputs for the status. The Vpp, Filter and Limit Check block runs every 160 ms. The peak-to-peak calculation is based on the Vfmax and Vfmin values of the Gapx_Vibx Wideband Vibration Filtering section. The wideband peak-to-peak signal is filtered and then scaled to EU.

Note Vibx is expressed in EU (pk) for the configuration parameter, VibTypes: accelerometers with integrated outputs, seismics, and Velomitors. Vibx is expressed in EU(pk – pk) for Proximitors.

The re-scaled wideband signal is the input for the limit check function. The limit check provides the Booleans, SysLim1VIBx, and SysLim2VIBx for the limit check status.

Three tracking filters are provided to calculate the peak vibration for the LM applications when accelerometers are used. The tracking filters provide the vibration that occurs at the rotor speeds defined by the System outputs, LM_RPM_A, LM_RPM_B, and/or LM_RPM_C. LMVib1A is the vibration detected on channel 1 based on the rotor speed, LM_RPM_A. LMVib1B is the vibration detected on channel 1 based on rotor speed, LM_RPM_B. LMVib1C is based on LM_RPM_C.

The 1X and 2X filters provide the peak-to-peak vibration vector relative to the Keyphasor input from channel 13. VIB1X1 is the peak-to-peak magnitude of the vibration from channel 1 relative to the rpm based on the Keyphasor input. Vib1xPH1 is the phase angle in degrees of the vibration vector from channel 1 relative to the Keyphasor input. VIB2X1 is the peak-to-peak magnitude of the vibration from channel 1 relative to twice the Keyphasor rpm. Vib2xPH1 is the phase angle in degrees of the 2X vibration vector from channel 1.

Channels 4 – 8:

Channels 4 through 8 can be used for position information from Proximitors, wideband vibration information from Proximitors, Velomitors, and Seismics. 1X and 2X information can be derived from Proximitors viewing axial vibration information when a Keyphasor probe is used. Channels 4 through 8 are identical to channels 1 through 3 with the exception of the Tracking filters. Channels 4-8 do not include the Tracking filters.

Channels 9 – 12:

Channels 9 – 12 are used for position information only. The Gapx_Pos_Filtering runs at 4.6 kHz rate and 2.3 kHz rate if input channels 14 through 21 are configured as vibration channels. This section provides an 8 Hz low pass filter for the gap calculation. Gapx_Pos Scaling and Limit Check runs every frame. This function rescales the gap value from volts to EU based on the configuration. The System Limit Check can be used set a Boolean at minimum and/or maximum limit values configured by the user.

Channnel 13:

Channel 13 supports position feedback and Keyphasor feedback. The Key_Phasor Filtering is executed 4.6 kHz rate and 2.3 kHz rate if input channels 14 through 21 are configured as vibration channels. The Filtering function performs a median select filter for the gap signal.

A hardware comparator circuit with a software controlled hysteresis limit is used to detect the leading edge of the slot or pedestal gap transition. The Keyphasor timing pulse is fed into an FPGA with counters that determine the time between Keyphasor pulses and the firmware uses this information to calculate the rotor speed in rpm. At very low speeds the hardware Keyphasor comparator is not usable and the runtime application code determines speed by counting pulses detected through the system input, GAP13_KPH1.

The Gap13 KP Scaling and Limit Check runs every frame. The gap scaling and System Limit Check performs the same way it does for channels 1 through 12.

Wideband Vibration Filtering

The Wideband_Vibration Filtering function is executed at 4.6 kHz rate and 2.3 kHz rate if input channels 14 through 21 are configured as vibration channels. The vibration input for this function comes from the FPGA that controls the A/D and multipler circuit. The gap or position filter is a 2-pole low pass filter with a cutoff frequency set at 8 Hz. The output of the gap filter is expressed in volts and provides the input the Gap Scaling and Limit Check function.

The wideband vibration information can be shaped or conditioned based on the configuration parameter, FilterType. FilterTypes equal to Low-pass, Band-pass or High-pass are used for the Seismic and Velomitor sensor types. FilterType = None is used by all the other sensor types. The Low-Pass filter can be configured for 2, 4, 6 or 8 pole attenuation behavior through the parameter, Filtrlpattn. The 3 db cutoff frequency, Filtrlocutoff is also adjustable. The High-pass filter can also be configured for 2, 4, 6 and 8 pole to sharpen the attenuation characteristics of the filter through the parameter, Filtrhpattn. The cutoff frequency, Filtrhpcutoff is adjustable in configuration.

The wideband filtered vibration output, Vfout goes through a minimum/maximum peak detect function. The capture window for the minimum/maximum detect is 160 milliseconds wide for Keyphasor based speeds greater than 12 rpm. The objective is to capture at least 2 cycles of vibration information to get an accurate peak-to-peak calculation.

The wideband unfiltered vibration output, goes through a second minimum/maximum peak detect function. The outputs, Vmax and Vmin, are used to clamp the filtered vibration output peak-to-peaks.

Vpp Filter and Limit Check

The Vpp, Filter and Limit Check operates on channels 1 through 8 for TVIB1 and channels 14 through 21 for TVIB2. The execution rate for the function is 6.25 Hz. The Vpp, Filter, and Limit Check inputs are the following:

• Vfmax – filtered maximum peak vibration • Vfmin – filtered minimum peak vibration • Vmin – unfiltered min peak vibration • Vmax – unfiltered max peak vibration

The system inputs or Vpp, Filter, and Limit Check outputs are:

VIBx - the wideband vibration in EU where the units for EU are in peak for the configuration parameter, VibType = Seismic, Velomitor or Accelerometer and the EU units are peak-to-peak for VibType = Proximitor

SysLim1VIBx – the System Limit #1 Boolean (Boolean is True if VIBx is in the limit 1)

SysLim2VIBx – the System Limit #2 Boolean (Boolean is True if VIBx is in the limit 2)

The system output used is the System Limit Reset Boolean. If Reset is True, a latched System Limit Boolean is cleared.

The filtered peak-to-peak wideband vibration signal, Vfpp = Vfmax – Vfmin. Vfpp is then clamped based on the unfiltered peak-to-peak wideband value. The clamp prevents outputs from the Infinite Impulse Response (IIR-based) filter designs used for the high-pass and low-pass filters to exceed the original input values. The clamped wideband vibration signal, Vpp passes through a single-pole low-pass filter with an adjustable cutoff frequency, VIB_PP_Fltr.

The Vpp, Filter, and Limit Check scaling block converts the clamped and filtered wideband peak-to-peak vibration from volts to EU or Volts peak (Vp) depending on the configuration parameter VibType.

• VibType – determines the A/D conversion value, AD_CONV in units of volts / counts and the default value for the sensor offset and the final EU units being expressed in peak or peak-to-peak.

• VIBScale – gain factor expressed in volts peak / EU (peak) irregardless to the VibType setting.

• ScaleOffset – offset value in EU (peak).

The Vpp, Filter and Limit Check provides two System Limit blocks. The following configuration parameters control the behavior of the System Limit block:

• SysLimxEnabl – the System Limit (x=1 or 2) Enable is set True to select the use of the block.

• SysLimxType – the System Limit (x=1 or 2) Type selects whether the limit check does a “>=” check or a “<=” check.

• SysLimitx – System Limit (x=1 or 2) is the limit value used in the “>=” or “<=” check.

• SysLimxLatch – System Limit (x=1 or 2) Latch determines whether the Boolean status flag is latched or unlatched. If the Boolean status flag is latched the flag will remain True even if the limit value is no longer exceeded.

Page 464: Geh-6421_vol_ii Mk Vi System Guide

GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II VVIB Vibration Monitor Board • 461

The system input or System Limit Boolean status flag is SysLimxVIBy where x is the System Limit block number (1 or 2) and y is the VVIB channel input number (1 – 8 for TVIB1 and 14 – 21 for TVIB2).

Gap Scaling and Limit Check

The Gap Scaling and Limit Check operates on channels 1 through 8 for TVIB1 and channels 14 through 21 for TVIB2. The execution rate for the function is 25, 50, or 100 Hz. The rate of execution is based on the frame rate selected for IONet. The system inputs or Gap Scaling and Limit Check outputs are:

Gapx_VIBx – the position or gap value in EU for Proximitors and bias voltage in Vdc for accelerometers with integrated outputs, seismics, and Velomitors

SysLim1GAPx – the System Limit #1 Boolean; (Boolean is True if GAPx_VIBx is in the limit 1)

SysLim2GAPx – the System Limit #2 Boolean. (Boolean is True if GAP_VIBx is in the limit 2)

The system output used is the System Limit Reset Boolean. If Reset is True, a latched System Limit Boolean is cleared.

The Gap Scaling and Limit Check scaling block converts the 8 Hz filtered output gap signal from volts to EU or Volts peak (Vp) depending on the configuration parameter VibType. The scaling is determined by the following configuration parameters:

• VIB_Scale – gain factor expressed in volts peak / EU (peak) irregardless to the VibType setting.

• ScaleOffset – offset value in EU (peak)

The Gap Scaling and Limit Check provides two System Limit blocks. The following configuration parameters control the behavior of the System Limit block:

• SysLimxEnabl – the System Limit (x=1 or 2) Enable is set True to select the use of the block.

• SysLimxType – the System Limit (x=1 or 2) Type selects whether the limit check does a “>=” check or a “<=” check.

• SysLimitx – System Limit (x=1 or 2) is the limit value used in the “>=” or “<=” check.

• SysLimxLatch – System Limit (x=1 or 2) Latch determines whether the Boolean status flag is latched or unlatched. If the Boolean status flag is latched the flag will remain True even if the limit value is no longer exceeded.

The system input or System Limit Boolean status flag is SysLimxGAPy where x is the System Limit block number (1 or 2) and y is the VVIB channel input number (1 – 8 for TVIB1 and 14 – 21 for TVIB2).

Gapx_POSy Gap Calculations

The Gapx_POSy Gap Calculations is comprised of the Gapx Position Filtering and the Gapx_Pos Scaling and Limit Check where x is the VVIB channel number 9 through 12 for TVIB1 and 22 through 25 for TVIB2 and y is the position number 1 – 4 for TVIB1 and 5 – 8 for TVIB2. The Gapx_POSy Gap Calculation’s outputs are:

Gapx_POSy – the position or gap value in EU for Proximitors

SysLim1GAPx – the System Limit #1 Boolean (Boolean is True if GAPx_POSy is in the limit 1)

SysLim2GAPx – the System Limit #2 Boolean (Boolean is True if GAP_POSy is in the limit 2)

The system output used is the System Limit Reset Boolean. If Reset is True, a latched System Limit Boolean is cleared.

The Gapx_Position Filtering is executed at 4.6 kHz rate and 2.3 kHz rate if input channels 14 through 21 are configured as vibration channels. The position input for this function comes from an FPGA that controls the multiplexed A/Ds. The A/D value is compensated for A/D gain and offset errors and converted to volts. A median select filter is then applied.

The Gapx_Position Scaling and Limit Check scaling block converts the filtered gap signal from volts to EU or Volts peak (Vp) depending on the configuration parameter VibType. The configuration parameters are:

• Scale – gain factor expressed in volts peak / EU (peak) • ScaleOffset – offset value in EU (peak)

The Gapx_Position Scaling and Limit Check provides two System Limit blocks. The following configuration parameters control the behavior of the System Limit block:

• SysLimxEnabl – the System Limit (x=1 or 2) Enable is set True to select the use of the block.

• SysLimxType – the System Limit (x=1 or 2) Type selects whether the limit check does a “>=” check or a “<=” check.

• SysLimitx – System Limit (x=1 or 2) is the limit value used in the “>=” or “<=” check.

• SysLimxLatch – System Limit (x=1 or 2) Latch determines whether the Boolean status flag is latched or unlatched. If the Boolean status flag is latched the flag will remain True even if the limit value is no longer exceeded.

The system input or System Limit Boolean status flag is SysLimxGAPy where x is the System Limit block number (1 or 2) and y is the VVIB channel input number (9 – 12 for TVIB1 and 22 – 25 for TVIB2).

Gap13/26_KPH1/2 Calculations

The Gap13/26_KPH12 Calculations is comprised of the Gap13/26 Filtering and the Gap13/26_KP Scaling and Limit Check. The Gap13/26_KPH1/2 Calculation system inputs are:

GAP13_KPH1 – the position or gap value in EU for the Keyphasor Proximitor for TVIB1

GAP26_KPH2 – the position or gap value in EU for the Keyphasor Proximitor for TVIB2

SysLim1GAP13 – the System Limit #1 Boolean for TVIB1 (Boolean is True if GAP13_KPH1 is in the limit 1)

SysLim2GAP13 – the System Limit #2 Boolean for TVIB1 (Boolean is True if GAP13_KPH1 is in the limit 2)

SysLim1GAP26 – the System Limit #1 Boolean for TVIB2 (Boolean is True if GAP26_KPH2 is in the limit 1)

SysLim2GAP26 – the System Limit #2 Boolean for TVIB2 (Boolean is True if GAP26_KPH2 is in the limit 2)

The Gap13_KPH1 system outputs are:

SysLimReset – the System Limit Reset Boolean (If Reset is True, a latched System Limit Boolean is cleared)

LM_RPMx – rotor shaft speed in rpm from different stages of the turbine (x = A, B or C)

The Gap 13/26 Filtering is executed at 4.6 kHz rate and 2.3 kHz rate if input channels 14 through 21 are configured as vibration channels. The input for this function comes from a multiplexed A/D controlled by an FPGA. The Gap 13/26 Filtering uses the median select function to calculate the filtered gap. The median select filter uses the present value (n), the previous (n-1), and the value 2 samples back (n-2) to perform a median select on. The output is expressed in volts and passes to the Gap13/26 Scaling and Limit Check.

The Gap13/26 Scaling and Limit Check scaling block converts the filtered gap signal from volts to EU. The Gap13/26 runs at the frame rate of either 25, 50 or 100 Hz. The gap conversion is based on the following configuration parameters:

• Scale – gain factor expressed in volts peak / EU (peak) • ScaleOffset – offset value in EU (peak)

The Gap13/26 Scaling & Limit Check provides two System Limit blocks. The following configuration parameters control the behavior of the System Limit block:

• SysLimxEnabl – the System Limit (x=1 or 2) Enable is set True to select the use of the block.

• SysLimxType – the System Limit (x=1 or 2) Type selects whether the limit check does a “>=” check or a “<=” check.

• SysLimitx – System Limit (x=1 or 2) is the limit value used in the “>=” or “<=” check.

• SysLimxLatch – System Limit (x=1 or 2) Latch determines whether the Boolean status flag is latched or unlatched. If the Boolean status flag is latched the flag will remain True even if the limit value is no longer exceeded.

The system input or System Limit Boolean status flag is SysLimxGAP13 for TVIB1 and SysLimxGAP26 for TVIB2 where x is the System Limit block number (1 or 2).

1X and 2X Calculations based on Keyphasor Input

The 1X and 2X Calculations based on a Keyphasor input provides a peak-to-peak vibration component (magnitude and phase) at both the Keyphasor frequency and twice the frequency. The calculations are comprised of two sections:

• Modulator and Filter • Magnitude and Phase Calculation

The system inputs from the 1X & 2X calculations are:

• Vib1Xy – the peak-to-peak magnitude of the vibration phasor that is rotating at the Keyphasor frequency

• Vib1xPHy – the phase angle between the Keyphasor input and the ViB1Xy vibration phasor

• Vib2Xy – the peak-to-peak magnitude of the vibration phasor that is rotating at the twice the Keyphasor frequency

• Vib1xPHy – the phase angle between the Keyphasor input and the Vib2Xy vibration phasor, and where y is the VVIB channel number, 1 through 8 for TVIB1 and 14 through 21 for TVIB2

The Modulator and Filter for both the 1X and 2X calculations are executed at 4.6 kHz rate and 2.3 kHz rate if input channels 14 through 21 are configured as vibration channels. The 1X modulator has two inputs: delta_1/delta_2 and the vibration channel input. The delta_1/ delta_2 is the point in the key_phasor cycle where the vibration channel input was sampled. The range for delta_1/delta_2 is from 0 to 1. Delta_1/delta_2 is converted to radians and is the index into a cosine and sine lookup table. The result from the cosine and sine lookup table is modulated with the vibration channel input. The modulated signal is filtered through a 4-pole low pass filter with a cutoff frequency of 0.25 Hz. The filter output provides the dc value of the de-modulated components: the real and imaginary phasors of the vibration component that is rotating at 1X speed.

The Vibration 1X function uses the real and imaginary vibration components based on the Keyphasor frequency as the inputs to the RMS calculator. The square root of the sum of the squares of the real and imaginary vibration components times the scaling block results in the peak-to-peak magnitude of the 1X vibration phasor, Vib1Xy rotating at the Keyphasor frequency. The phase, Vib1xPHy, is the arccosine of the absolute value of Fpi / (VMK ).

The Vibration 2X function is the same calculation except the input delta_1/delta_2 is multiplied by 4 * PI instead of 2 * PI. The results are a peak-to-peak magnitude of the 2X vibration phasor, Vib2Xy, rotating at twice the Keyphasor frequency and a phase of Vib2xPHy.

The scaling block converts the VMK * 4 signal to EU. The scaling is based the following configuration parameters:

• Scale – gain factor expressed in volts peak / EU (peak) • ScaleOffset – offset value in EU (peak)

Tracking Filters based on LM_RPM_A/B and C

The Tracking Filters based on LM_RPM_A/B and C provide the peak vibration component (magnitude only) at the frequencies: LM_RPM_A, LM_RPM_B, and LM_RPM_C. The Tracking filters require both Modulation & filter stage executing at 4.6 kHz rate and 2.3 kHz rate if input channels 14 through 21 are configured as vibration channels and the Magnitude calculation.

The system inputs from the Tracking filters are:

• LMVibxA – the peak magnitude of the vibration component rotating at LM_RPM_A speed

• LMVibxB – the peak magnitude of the vibration component rotating at LM_RPM_B speed

• LMVibxC – the peak magnitude of the vibration component rotating at LM_RPM_C speed

• SysLim1ACCx – the System Limit Boolean status of Limit1 where x = 1 through 9

• SysLim2ACCx – the System Limit Boolean status of Limit2 where x = 1 through 9

The Modulator and Low-pass filter for the LMVibxA, LMVibxB, and LMVibxC tracking filters are executed at 4.6 kHz rate. The low-pass filter is identical for all tracking filters. The filter is a 5-pole low-pass filter with a cutoff frequency equal to 2.5 Hz. The LMVibxA filter inputs are the modulated signals cos(2pi/60Fs * LM_RPM_A) * Vibration Input and sin(2pi/60Fs * LM_RPM_A) * Vibration Input. The filtered output of the modulated vibration input with the sine is the de-modulated imaginary component of the channel vibration based on the rotor shaft speed, LM_RPM_A and the filtered output of the modulated vibration input with the cosine is the de-modulated real component of the channel vibration based on the rotor shaft speed, LM_RPM_A.

The LMVibxB and LMVibxC tracking filters perform the same task as the LMVibxA filter, except the de-modulated real and imaginary components of the vibration input are based on the rotor speeds: LM_RPM_B and LM_RPM_C.

The scaling block converts the VMx where x = A, B, or C magnitude to EU. The scaling is based on the following configuration parameters:

• Scale – gain factor expressed in volts peak / EU (peak) • ScaleOffset – offset value in EU (peak)

The Tracking Filter provides two System Limit blocks. The following configuration parameters control the behavior of the System Limit block:

• SysLimxEnabl – the System Limit (x=1 or 2) Enable is set True to select the use of the block.

• SysLimxType – the System Limit (x=1 or 2) Type selects whether the limit check does a “>=” check or a “<=” check.

• SysLimitx – System Limit (x=1 or 2) is the limit value used in the “>=” or “<=” check.

• SysLimxLatch – System Limit (x=1 or 2) Latch determines whether the Boolean status flag is latched or unlatched. If the Boolean status flag is latched the flag will remain True even if the limit value is no longer exceeded.

Rated RPM If greater than 4,000 rpm, can use eight vibration channels, (others can be prox/position) If less than 4,000 rpm, can use 16 vibration channels, and other probes

Buffered outputs Amplitude accuracy is 0.1% for signal to Bently Nevada 3500 vibration analysis system

Diagnostics

Diagnostics perform a high/low (hardware) limit check on the input signal and a high/low system (software) limit check. The software limit check is adjustable in the field.

A probe fault, alarm, or trip condition occurs if either of an X or Y probe pair exceeds its limits. In addition, the application software prevents a vibration trip (the ac component) if a probe fault is detected based on the dc component.

Position inputs for thrust wear protection, differential expansion, and eccentricity are monitored similar to the vibration inputs except only the dc component is used for a position indication. A 16-bit sampling type A/D converter is used with 14-bit resolution and overall circuit accuracy of 1% of full scale.

Vibration Monitoring and Analysis

Note The Mark VI system provides vibration protection and displays the basic vibration parameters.

GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II VVIB Vibration Monitor Board • 469

Each input is actively isolated and the signals made available through four plugs for direct cabling to a Bently Nevada 3500 monitor. This configuration provides the maximum reliability by having a direct interface from the Proximitors to the turbine control for trip protection and still retaining the real-time data access to the Bently Nevada system for static and dynamic vibration monitoring.

Note The Mark VI system displays the total vibration, the 1X vibration component, and the 1X vibration phase angle, but it is not intended as a vibration analysis system.

Fourteen BNC connectors on TVIB provide buffered signals available to portable data gathering equipment for predictive maintenance purposes. Buffered outputs have unity gain, 10 kΩ internal impedance, and can drive loads up to 1500 Ω configuration.

TVIB Vibration Input

Functional Description

The Vibration Input (TVIB) terminal board accepts up to 14 vibration probes, two of which can be cabled directly to the VVIB board. VVIB processes and digitizes the displacement and velocity signals, which are then sent over the VME bus to the controller. The Mark* VI system uses Bently Nevada probes for shaft vibration monitoring. The following vibration probes are compatible with TVIB:

• Proximity • Velocity • Acceleration • Seismic • Phase

There are two types of TVIB terminal boards, H1A and H2A. The H2A type board has BNC connectors allowing portable vibration data gathering equipment to be plugged in for predictive maintenance purposes. Both types have connectors so that Bently Nevada vibration monitoring equipment can be permanently cabled to the terminal board to measure and analyze turbine vibration.

In the Mark VI system TVIB works with the VVIB processor and supports simplex and TMR applications. Two TVIBs connect to VVIB with two cables. In TMR systems, TVIB connects to three VVIB processors with three cables.

Note TVIBH does not support Mark VIe I/O packs.

Terminal Board TVIB Wiring

Operation

TVIB supports Proximitor®, Seismic, Accelerometer, and Velomitor® probes supplied by Bently Nevada. Power for the vibration probes comes from the VVIB boards in simplex or TMR mode. The probe signals return to VVIB where they are A/D converted and sent over the VME bus to the controller. Vibration, eccentricity, and axial position alarms and trip logic are generated in the controller.

Page 478: Geh-6421_vol_ii Mk Vi System Guide

GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II VVIB Vibration Monitor Board • 475

A -28 V dc source is supplied to the terminal board from the VME board for Proximitor power. In TMR systems, a diode high-select circuit selects the highest -28 V dc bus for redundancy. Regulators provide individual excitation sources, -23 to -26 V dc, that are short circuit protected. VVIB samples the probe inputs at high speed over discrete time periods.

Diagnostics

Diagnostic tests are performed on the terminal board components by VVIB as follows:

• Diagnostics perform a high/low (hardware) limit check on the probe input signals and a high/low system (software) limit check. These limits create faults.

• A probe fault, alarm, or trip condition will occur if either of an X or Y probe pair exceeds its limits.

• Position inputs for thrust wear protection, differential expansion, and eccentricity are monitored similar to the vibration inputs except only the dc component is used for a position indication. If a maximum limit is exceeded a fault is created.

Fourteen BNC connectors on TVIB provide buffered signals available to portable data gathering equipment for predictive maintenance purposes. Buffered outputs have unity gain, 10 Ω internal impedance, and can drive loads up to 1500 Ω.

Configuration

Jumpers JP1A through JP8A select the type of the first eight probes as follows:

• S = Seismic • V = Velocity • P = Proximity • A = Accelerometer

Refer to the Installation section for more information.

Operation

The eight vibration inputs on each DVIB can be applied as either Proximitor, accelerometer, seismic (velocity), or Velomitor® inputs. Jumpers on DVIB assign a specific vibration sensor type to each input point, with the seismic type assigned to point (S), the Velomitor type assigned to point (V), and the Proximitor and accelerometer types sharing point (P/A). The Proximitor reads a shaft keyway to generate a once per revolution Keyphasor input for phase angle reference.

On DVIB, the high frequency decoupling to ground on all signals is the same as on TVIB. An on-board ID chip identifies the board to VVIB for system diagnostic purposes.

TTPWH1A

The TTPWH1A power conditioning board provides branch circuit protection and distribution between one or more Mark VI rack mounted +28 V dc power supplies and discrete wiring to peripheral devices. The H1A has three 2-pin inputs for +28 V dc from the Mark VI power supply. It provides diode or selection between the three inputs to power the +28 V dc outputs. Outputs are rated 22 – 30 V dc, 0 – 0.25 A individually and capable of parallel operation. There is high frequency isolation between the inputs and the outputs and the voltage drop is less than +4 V dc when delivering rated current.

Typical applications power the H1A from the P28C output of the VME rack power supply. When this is done, the isolation jumper on the rack is placed in the isolated position removing all connections between the P28C output and the rack. The TTPWH1A then provides a resistive bridge to ground to center the power circuit with respect to ground. Voltage feedback monitoring signals are provided using 0.1% resistors allowing monitoring of three input voltages, output voltage, and voltage between PCOM and SCOM.

Note The TTPWH1A internal signal paths are shown in the figure. Nine current limited 0.25 A outputs are provided and may be paralleled for higher current applications.

The +28 V dc power source should have an isolated common (return), especially if the load is external to the cabinet and is grounded. The rack power supplies are wired through TTPWH1A to the trip board.

Diagnostics

The five monitored voltages are wired to an analog input terminal board, TBAI. The I/O processor board, VAIC, creates a fault if an input signal goes out of configured limits, either high or low.

Configuration

There are no switches or jumpers on the power conditioning boards. On the VME rack power supply, place the P28C isolation jumper in the isolated position.

Alarms

The alarms associated with this board depend on system use of the feedback signals.

* Newer design power supplies

With the exception of the number of remote 28 V outputs, the RKPSG2 and LVPSG2 are designed to be direct replacements for the RKPSG1 and LVPSG1 respectively. These two supplies have been replaced with the newer designs (marked with asterisk in the table above).

Installation

The power supply is mounted to the right-hand side of the VME rack on a sheet metal bracket. The dc input, 28 V dc output, and 335 V dc output connections are at the bottom. The newer design also has a status connector on the bottom. Two connectors, PSA and PSB, at the top of the assembly mate with a cable harness carrying power to the VME rack.

Each of the five 28 V dc power modules supplies a section of the VME rack. These sections are labeled A, B, C, D, E, and F. The P28C output or PS28 at the bottom of the power supply can be used to power an external peripheral device. To do this the jumper plug shown on the bracket to the left of the rack must be moved from the Normal position to the Isolated position below.

The fan is only used when the controller is mounted in the rack. It is powered from the top connector on the same bracket, located on the left side of the rack.

GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II VME Rack Power Supply • 495

To prevent electric shock, turn off power to the RPSM to be replaced, then test to verify that no power exists on the module before touching it or any connected circuits.

To prevent equipment damage, do not remove, insert, or adjust any connections while power is applied to the equipment.

GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II VME Rack Power Supply • 499

Operation

The VME Rack power supply has only one user control, the power switch, and three status LED indicators. The power switch provides front-panel control of the power supply output voltages and when toggled serves as a fault reset. The yellow, red and green LEDs indicate the status of the input power, fault presence, and normal operation.

Note Newer supply designs also have a status output that mimics the status of the green LED and an ID output that uniquely identifies the supply back to the system.

Power Switch

The front panel power switch is a locking type that must be pulled out to change position. This switch is a low voltage control to enable or disable the output voltages. If the red LED is ON indicating a fault condition the power switch can be toggled OFF and then back ON again to clear the fault. The fault will only be cleared if the condition that caused it no longer exists.

Yellow LED

When the power switch is OFF the yellow LED will indicate the status of the input power. If this LED is ON there is power present on the supply input connector. For the newer design, the yellow LED will only turn ON if the input voltage is above the input under-voltage fault threshold.

Red LED

This LED will only be ON if there is input power, the power switch is ON, and a fault has been detected.

Green LED/Status Output

If there is input power, the power switch is ON, and there are no detectable faults, the Green LED will be ON. The newer designs also have a status output that mimics the status of this LED. The status output is a NO solid-state relay contact that will be CLOSED when the green LED is ON.

Fault Conditions

There are three classes of power supply faults:

• Those that transiently shutdown an output • Those that require some reset action to clear • Permanent failures that require the replacement of the supply.

This section describes the first two fault classes and assumes the cause of the fault is external. For a detailed fault diagnostics, refer to the section, Diagnostics and Troubleshooting.

Note When the external condition causing the current limit condition is corrected, the output voltage will return to normal.

Page 503: Geh-6421_vol_ii Mk Vi System Guide

500 • VME Rack Power Supply GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II

If an overcurrent condition exists on an output, the voltage on that output will fold back as required to maintain the constant current limit output. For every output other than the 5 V supply, this condition is not detectable at the supply and the green LED will remain ON. Detection of a low output voltage due to excessive output current has to be detected at the system level through the power supply voltage monitoring. The newer design also has an over temperature monitor of the output modules and a current limit detector on the optional 335V supply. These additional fault detectors may cause the red LED to come on when an output is in current limit but the red LED will also go out when the output voltage returns to normal.

The 5 V current limit is a special case due to the 5 V under-voltage detector. If the current limit causes the 5 V output voltage to fold back below the UV threshold, all of the other outputs will be disabled until the 5 V output voltage returns to a voltage above the UV threshold.

All of the other faults will shut down one or all of the outputs until the external cause of the fault condition is removed and the supply is reset. A reset can be initiated through the front panel power switch or by removing and reapplying input power to the supply. Output over-voltage faults on the newer design require the removal of input power for a minimum of one minute to reset the fault once the source of the fault has been removed. Below is a power supply fault summary.

• Input under-voltage (Latched) • Input over-voltage (Newer Design Only) • P5 output under-voltage • Output over-voltage (Latched) • Over temperature (Newer Design Only)

Diagnostics

Incoming and outgoing voltages and currents are monitored for control and protection purposes. If the red LED is ON, this is not a direct indication that the power supply has failed and has to be replaced. The LED ON could indicate that something is wrong in the system and the fault LED is latched on. The following is a description of the power supply parameters that are monitored and the conditions that can cause faults.

Input Under-voltage (below the minimum operating voltage)

The input voltage has to be above the under-voltage threshold or operation of the supply will be inhibited. For the newer design this is indicated by no LEDs ON. The red LED will come ON and remain on until the input voltage is above the under-voltage threshold and the power switch is toggled. If an under-voltage fault occurs during normal operation, the outputs will be disabled and the red LED will come ON and remain ON until the input voltage is above the under-voltage threshold and the power switch is toggled.

Note If the supply power switch is turned on in this condition there will be no output voltages.

Input Over-voltage (newer design above maximum operating voltage)

If the supply power switch is turned on in this condition there, will be no output voltages and the red LED will come ON and remain on until the input voltage is below the over-voltage threshold and the power switch is toggled. If an over-voltage fault occurs during normal operation, the outputs will be disabled and the red LED will come ON and remain ON until the input voltage is below the over voltage threshold and the power switch is toggled.

Note The input voltage has to be below the over-voltage threshold or operation of the supply will be inhibited and the yellow LED will be ON.

5 V Output Under-voltage (typically below 4.7 V)

The P5 output voltage has to be above the under-voltage threshold or operation of the supply will be inhibited, all supply outputs will be turned off, and the red LED will be ON. If an under-voltage fault occurs during normal operation, the outputs will be disabled and the red LED will come ON and remain ON until the output voltage is above the under-voltage threshold.

5 V Output Over-voltage (typically above 6 V)

The P5 output voltage has to be below the over-voltage threshold or operation of the supply will be inhibited. All supply outputs will be latched OFF and the red LED will be ON until the power switch is toggled. For the newer design, this fault must be reset by removing input power to the supply (wait for one minute and re-apply input power).

Output Over-voltage other than P5 (typically above 120%)

The output voltage has to be below the over-voltage threshold or operation of the supply output that is above the threshold will be inhibited (latched OFF) until the power switch is toggled. The red LED will be ON during this fault. For the newer design, this fault must be reset by removing input power to the supply (wait for one minute and re-apply input power).

Page 507: Geh-6421_vol_ii Mk Vi System Guide

504 • VME Rack Power Supply GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II

Output Over-temperature (newer design typically above 100 degrees C)

The modules that supply the output voltage have to be operated below the over-temperature threshold. A specific supply output module operated above the threshold will be inhibited until the temperature is lowered below the threshold. The red LED will be ON during this fault. An over-temperature of the 5 V module will cause a 5 V under-voltage fault.

Troubleshooting

The supply has no field serviceable components. If a supply is found to be defective it must be replaced. The power supply cover should not be removed in the field.

There are only two indications of a problem on the power supply itself. A problem is indicated when there are no LEDs ON or the red LED is ON. Both conditions will be annunciated on the newer designs through the status output.

No LEDs ON is a good indication of an input voltage problem or a defective supply. If the red LED is ON, the cause could be any of the fault conditions listed above or a defective supply. Below is a list of troubleshooting hints.

Note Over-voltage faults on the newer design must be reset by removing input power to the supply, waiting for one minute, and re-applying input power.

No LEDs ON

Verify that the input connector and voltage to the supply are correct. If they are, then replace the supply. Use caution when powering on the replacement supply because the failure could have been caused by a problem in the system.

Red LED ON and system up

This condition indicates that the 5 V power is OK. Use the system diagnostics and or testpoints on the left bottom of the control rack or at the supply connectors to find the faulted outputs. Try and clear the fault with the input power or switch reset. If the green LED comes ON, the fault was a transient one and may come back. If the red LED is still ON, remove the connector supplying the faulted output and reset the supply. If the red LED is still ON, then a defective supply is the most probable cause. If the green LED comes ON, then the problem is most likely in the system.

Red LED ON and system down

This condition indicates that the 5 V power is not OK. In this case, all of the supply outputs should be off. Try and reset the fault with the input power. If the green LED comes on the fault was a transient one and may come back. If the red LED is still ON, remove the PSA/PSB output connector at the top of the supply and reset the supply. If the red LED is still ON, then a defective supply is the most probable cause. If the green LED comes ON, then the problem is most likely in the system.

Green LED ON and system up but one or more of the voltages out of specification

This condition indicates that the 5 V power is OK. Each supply output has a current limit and short circuit protection. This condition could be caused by a short or failed component in the system. Remove the connector supplying the failed output voltage. If the voltage returns to normal this is an indication of a system problem. If the voltage does not return to normal then the most probable cause is a defective supply.

GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II VME Rack Power Supply • 505

Thermal over-temperature faults (new design only)

Even in the worst case ambient conditions, a thermal fault should not occur if the outputs are not overloaded. A sustained current limit on a supply output will be the most likely cause of a thermal fault.

Configuration

The P28C output or PS28 at the bottom of the power supply can be used to power an external peripheral device. To do this the jumper plug on the bracket to the left of the rack must be moved from the Normal position to the Isolated position below.

Redundant Power Supply

Functional Description

The redundant power supply module (RPSM) parallels two independent power supplies to provide ten output voltages with improved reliability. ORing diodes are used to OR the outputs of one supply with the outputs from the second redundant supply. Nine of the paralleling circuits have an additional current limit function. All output circuits have an LED status indicator.

The following figure shows the power and signal flow for two paralleled power supplies that provide power to a Mark* VI control rack. To provide redundancy, the outputs of each supply are passed into the RPSM, ORed and the redundant voltages are passed out the RPSM outputs. The RPSM module mounts on the side of the control rack in place of the power supply. The two power supplies that feed the RPSM are remotely mounted.

Output Voltage ORing

The ten outputs of two supplies are ORed together using low forward drop Schottky diodes. If an output of one of the supplies fails, the corresponding output on the other supply will pick up the full load through the diode. It is not intended that the two supplies equally share the load current, but if a short occurs on a RPSM output, it is possible to supply twice the normal short circuit current to the load. To prevent this, all of the outputs of the ORing diodes, with the exception of the 5 V, have an additional current limit circuit.

Note These circuits will hold the short circuit current to an acceptable level.

Refer to the Specifications section for expected RPSM output voltages accounting for the voltage losses introduced by passing the supply outputs through the ORing circuits. Due to the wiring impedance between the supply outputs and the RPSM, the supplies will tend to share the load. The sharing will reduce the diode and conductor losses so the expected losses for normal operations will be less than with one supply faulted.

Current Limit ECB

Nine of the outputs have electronic circuit breakers (ECBs) to limit the short circuit current. These circuit breakers are of the auto-reset type. Once the supplied output current exceeds the over-current threshold the output will be turned OFF and the reset timer started. Once the reset timer has expired the output will be turned back ON. If the over-current condition still exists, the output will be turned OFF and the reset timer started again. This cycle will continue until the short is removed. The output will then return to normal operation.

Note No current limiting is provided on the RPSM module for the 5 V output.

Indicator LEDs

All the RPSM supply outputs have green status LEDs to indicate that power is being supplied to the load. The LEDs are located on the front panel of the module. For normal operations these LEDs will be ON solid. If the RPSM is not supplying the correct power to the load, one or more of these LEDs are OFF or flashing.

Note A flashing LED indicates that the output ECB is tripped

Diagnostics

Below is a list of fault indications and the possible causes.

All RPSM green LEDs OFF - This is an indication of a problem back at the power supplies and not an RPSM failure.

One or more RPSM green LEDs OFF (but not all) - An RPSM LED OFF condition is an indication that there is no output voltage due to a short in the control rack or an RPSM failure.

5 V output problems - The 5 V output is unique from all of the other outputs. This RPSM output does not have current limit protection and has remote voltage sensing from the power supplies to the RPSM module. With a 5 V transient short or problem in the system, the most likely failure mode will be a 5 V output over-voltage fault back at the power supplies. Under high currents the losses will become high enough to cause the voltage at the power supplies to exceed the over-voltage threshold. Refer to the 5 V paragraph in GEI-100567 VME Power Supply for details. Any time the RPSM P5 green LED is on, the RPSM 5 V output voltage is above 4.55 V.

Redundant power supply replacement - As long as one of the power supplies is fully operational, the RPSM green LEDs will be ON and the correct power will be supplied to the system. When one of the power supplies fails, replacement can be postponed until it is convenient to do so. Before replacing the supply, refer to the troubleshooting guidelines outlined in GEI-100567 VME Power Supply to rule out a transient fault that can be reset such as an input power under-voltage. If the supply is found to be defective, follow removal and installation procedure outlined in the Power Supply section.

Parallel Status/ID

Each status connector from the power supplies has a status and ID signal. The ID signals from the two supplies are wired together along with the ID signal from the RPSM and passed out through the PSSTAT connector. The ID signal output is a single wire LAN line with three DALLAS 2502 ID ICs connected on it. The NO SSR contact status signals from the both supplies are passed through the RPSM and out the PSSTAT connector.

Power Supply 1 and 2 Status SSR NO Contacts

Parameter Conditions Min. Max. Units

V dc rating 55 V dc

V ac rating 55 V peak

Current rating 500 mA

ON resistance 1.0 Ohm

Isolation 1500 V dc

There are no field serviceable components in the RPSM module. If one or more of the green front panel LEDs are OFF, this is not a direct indication that the RPSM module has failed and has to be replaced. An LED OFF could indicate that something is wrong in the system and the fault is not due to the RPSM module.

Configuration

There are no jumpers or hardware settings on the board.

The PDM in the control cabinet (IS2020CCPD) does not supply power to any terminal boards except the TRLY boards. Values for the fuses in the control cabinet PDM are similar to those in the I/O cabinet PDM, except the rating for fuses FU1-FU6 is 5 A instead of 15 A.

Operation

The customer's 125 V dc and 115/230 V ac power is brought into the PDM through power filters. The ac power is cabled out to one or two ac/dc converters which produce 125 V dc. This dc voltage is then cabled back into the PDM and diode coupled to the main dc power, forming a redundant power source. This power is distributed to the VME racks and terminal boards.

Either 115 V ac or 230 V ac can be handled by the ac/dc converters. The transformer cable must be plugged into either JTX1 for 115 V ac, or JTX2 for 230 V ac operation.

Diagnostic information is collected in the PDM and wired out to a DIN rail mounted terminal board. A cable then runs to the VCMI in rack <R> through J301.

Ac feeders, J17-20, are fused and cabled out to the relay terminal boards. 125 V dc feeders are fused and cabled to the interface (I/O) cabinets, protection modules, TRPG, TREG, and TRLY. To ensure a noise free supply to the boards, the PDM is supplied through a control power filter (CPF), which suppresses EMI noise. The CPF rack holds either two or three Corcom 30 A filter modules as shown in the following figure.

Power to the contact inputs first passes through resistors R3 and R4, through TB2, before being fused and cabled to the TBCI boards. Contact inputs operate with 125 V dc excitation.

Page 523: Geh-6421_vol_ii Mk Vi System Guide

520 • Power Distribution Modules GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II

Control Cabinet PDM

Power requirements for the control cabinet are less than for the interface cabinet. The PDM has the same layout but different fuse ratings, since only the control racks and relay output boards require power. For additional noise filtering for the controllers, Corcom power filters are included with the PDM.

Ground Fault Detection Sensitivity

Note Ground fault detection is performed by the VCMI using signals from the PDM.

Ground fault detection on the floating 125 V dc power bus is based upon monitoring the voltage between the bus and the ground. The bus voltages with respect to ground are normally balanced (in magnitude), that is the positive bus to ground is equal to the negative bus to ground. The bus is forced to the balanced condition by the bridging resistors, Rb (refer to the figure). Bus leakage (or ground fault) from one side will cause the bus voltages with respect to ground to be unbalanced.

Ground Fault on Floating 125 Vdc Power Bus

There is a relationship between the bridge resistors, the fault resistance, the bus voltage, and the bus to ground voltage (Vout) as follows:

Vout = Vbus*Rf / [2*(Rf + Rb/2)]

Therefore the threshold sensitivity to ground fault resistance is as follows:

Rf = Vout*Rb / (Vbus – 2*Vout).

The ground fault threshold voltage is typically set at 30 V, that is Vout = 30 V. The bridging resistors are 82 K each. Therefore, from the formula above, the sensitivity of the control panel to ground faults, assuming it is on one side only, is as shown in the following table.

Note On Mark V systems, the bridging resistors are 33 K each so different Vout values result.

Results

On Mark VI, when the voltage threshold is configured to 30 V and the voltage bus is 125 V dc, the fault threshold is 38 Ω. When the voltage threshold is configured to 17 V and the voltage bus is 125 V dc, the fault threshold is 15 Ω.

The sensitivity of the ground fault detection is configurable. Balanced bus leakage decreases the sensitivity of the detector.

PPDA Power Distribution System Feedback

Functional Description

The Power Distribution System Feedback (PPDA) pack accepts inputs from up to six different power distribution boards. It conditions the board feedback signals and provides a dual redundant Ethernet interface to the controllers. PPDA feedback is structured to be plug and play uses electronic IDs to determine the power distribution boards wired into it. This information is then used to populate the IONet output providing correct feedback from connected boards.

Compatibility

The PPDA I/O pack is hosted by the JPDS or JPDM 28 V dc Control Power boards on the Mark* VIe Modular Power Distribution (PDM) system. It is compatible with the feedback signals created by JPDB, JPDE, and JPDF.

Installation

The PPDA I/O pack mounts on either a JPDS or JPDM 28 V dc control power terminal board.

To install the PPDA pack

1 Securely mount the desired terminal board.

2 Directly plug one PPDA I/O pack for simplex or three PPDA I/O packs for TMR into the terminal board connectors.

3 Mechanically secure the packs using the threaded studs adjacent to the Ethernet ports. The studs slide into a mounting bracket specific to the terminal board type. The bracket location should be adjusted such that there is no right-angle force applied to the DC-62 pin connector between the pack and the terminal board. The adjustment should only be required once in the life of the product.

4 Plug in one or two Ethernet cables depending on the system configuration. The pack will operate over either port. If dual connections are used, the standard practice is to connect ENET1 to the network associated with the R controller.

5 Apply power to the pack by plugging in the connector on the side of the pack. It is not necessary to insert this connector with the power removed from the cable as the I/O pack has inherent soft-start capability that controls current inrush on power application.

6 Configure the I/O pack as necessary.

7 Connect ribbon cables from connector J2 on JPDS or JPDM to daisy chain other core boards feeding information to PPDA.

Note Additional PDM feedback signals may be brought into the PPDA I/O pack through the P2 connector on the host board. The P1 connector is never used on a board that hosts the PPDA I/O pack, PPDA must always be at the end of the feedback cable daisy chain.

528 • Power Distribution Modules GEH-6421M Mark VI Turbine Control System Guide Volume II

Diagnostics

The PPDA performs the following self-diagnostic tests:

• A power-up self-test including checks of RAM, flash memory, Ethernet ports, and most of the processor board hardware

• Continuous monitoring of the internal power supplies for correct operation • A check of the electronic ID information from the terminal board, acquisition

card, and processor card confirming the hardware set matches, followed by a check confirming the application code loaded from flash memory is correct for the hardware set

• The analog input hardware includes precision reference voltages in each scan. Measured values are compared against expected values and are used to confirm health of the A/D converter circuits.

• Details of the individual diagnostics are available from the ToolboxST* application. The diagnostic signals are individually latched, and then reset with the RESET_DIA signal if they go healthy.

DS2020DACAG2 ac-dc Power Conversion

Functional Description

The DS2020DACAG2 is a drop in replacement for the DS2020DACAG1. It is backward compatible in systems that used the previous version and it should be used as a replacement part for the previous model. The DACA converts 115/230 V ac input power into 125 V dc output power, and the output power rating is approximately 1000 W.

A DACA is used when the primary power source for a control system is 125 V dc with or without a battery. In addition to power conversion, DACA provides additional local energy storage to extend the ride-through time whenever the Mark VIe Control has a complete loss of control power.

The DS2020DACAG2 model has a higher power rating than the previous module. Also, this new model can be paralleled for greater output current, whereas paralleling was not recommended for the previous model. The DS2020DACAG2 is recommended for all new panel designs.

Installation

The DACA module has four mounting holes in its base. Ac power input and dc output is through a single 12-position connector JZ that is wired into connector JZ2 or JZ3 of the PDM. Selection of 115 V ac or 230 V ac input is made by plugging the DACA internal cable into connector JTX1 for 115 V or JTX2 for 230 V.

Ensure the proper voltage is selected before power is applied to the equipment.

To replace a DACA power conversion module

1 Remove power from the DACA module. Allow 1 minute for the output voltage to discharge.

2 Remove the power input/output cable (JZ) on the right side of the module top.

3 Remove the four bolts securing the DACA module to the floor of the cabinet.

4 Remove the DACA module.

5 Make note of which receptacle the capacitor power plug is in. This is on the left side of the module top. JTX1 is for 115 V ac and JTX2 is for 230 V ac.

6 Ensure the capacitor power plug is in the same position as the one removed. JTX1 is for 115 V ac and JTX2 is for 230 V ac.

7 Place the new DACA module in the same position as the one removed.

8 Secure the DACA module to the cabinet floor with the four bolts removed from the previous module.

9 Install the power input/output plug (JZ) on the right side of the module top.

10 Restore power to the DACA module.

Operation

DACA receives ac power through the cable harness that is plugged into connector JZ. DACA uses a full wave bridge rectifier and an output filter capacitor. If needed, the user must provide an input filter to attenuate harmonic currents injected into the incoming line.

The DACAG2 can be paralleled for greater output current. In parallel operation, current sharing between the two DACAs is critical. Uneven current sharing can cause one of the DACAs to operate beyond its output current rating.

* The two paralleled DACAs must be connected to one ac voltage source for even output current sharing.

For proper implementation of parallel DACAs, the following must be observed:

• The DACAs must be connected to the same ac source to ensure equal input voltages to the DACAs.

• The maximum output current per DACA is derated for parallel operation. This derating accounts for variance in DACA open circuit voltages and variance in DACA output impedances. The following curve should be used. The maximum recommended total panel current is 16.5 A dc.
