We've had units that were at or near a temperature or pressure limit(er) and a faulty sensor, thermocouple, etc was causing the PID control and subsequently the fuel valve to start hunting.

Our 13.8kV, 30MVA generator has a neutral HRG (single phase transformer w/ resistor on secondary) that is designed to allow 5A (primary) on the generator neutral during the first phase-ground fault. Our end user on a new install is advising that their system has a nominal continuous value of...

Accuracy isn't too critical. 0.5% - 1.0% or better preferred. The 0-200 microamp signal is just for monitoring, not precise control.

I have an old turbine control system that uses black boxes for temperature and speed control. I'm trying to get the speed (passive Mag pick-up) and temperature signals (Type K Thermocouple) in to a PLC for monitoring. I think piggy backing off the Mag pick and taking the signal into a high...

I am looking for a direct replacement of an older EM Bemac II synchronous generator. Anyone know where I might find such an animal, aside from OEM: 4160V, Wye-connected 750-800kW 60Hz, 1800rpm Frame 732 Two-bearing Thank you in advance...

Correction, T4, T5 & T6 for neutral connection leads from generator stator.

Anyone know what the clearance requirements are for a 15kV (13.8kV nom) generator neutral bar? This is the neutral bar within the generator terminal box and would typically have leads T2, T4, T6 landed on it. Is there any code requirement or industry standard I could refer to? Live phase...

I have the opportunity to install qty (3) 333kVA single phase transformers (pole-mount, oil filled) or qty (1) 1000kVA 3-phase transformer (pad-mount, oil filled). Not considering any other factors (installation, space, etc.) which set up would be most electrically efficient at full load? Is...

I've inherited a project with an existing standby generator, 2.5MW, 480V, wye connected which feeds an existing 480/11kV Wye-Delta GSU transformer. In this case the wye connected generator is connected to the wye windings on the primary of the transformer. Wye's are solidly grounded. Service...

Anybody have an idea what the current cost is for a GE LMS100PA genset package is? Just looking for an idea of the package, and GE-supplied auxiliaries, not necessarily install or other EPC costs. David www.mavenpower.com

Prior to the login requirement, there's a message that states, "The current security connection is no longer valid". David www.mavenpower.com

I have RSLogix500 running for months on my PC and now I get an error message and it's asking me for Security Login username and password. Never had to do this before. Strange thing is, I can see my proper activation in the Factory Talk Activation Manager. I have no idea what this username...

Anyone with experience working the natural gas plants in Saudi Arabia? I need to know the sales gas composition/specs for natural gas supplied to their power plants. Thank you David www.mavenpower.com

Well formulated Scotty. Thanks. Had forgotten about the limited interrupting ability of these VFDs... David www.mavenpower.com

I have an application where my existing power control room runs about 250kVA of load at 480V, 3P3W, 60Hz. This PCR will be shipped to a 400V, 50Hz country. My initial solution was to use a motor-generator set (50Hz motor turning a 60Hz Generator) due to its simplicity, few parts, and pure...

I have an application where a generating station is providing power to a regional load via two power transformers. Generation is at 400V, steps to 24kV at Trafo1, and then 600m later steps down to 400V at Trafo2. Both transformers are 2000kVA w/ impedance of 6.43%. Assuming no cold load...

I have a small automation project we're working on which will use an AB Micrologix1200 processor. I need a low cost HMI and am considering the AB PanelView Component family, which I have never used before. I know there were some serious issues with programming speed/latency, validation, etc...

Spar, yes this is similar to a wind power application (actually tidal power), but on a small scale, and running in island mode (no grid tie). I am looking for a converter of this "wild" AC power to a constant frequency supply. What would you suggest for the lack of utility reactive power...

I have an application in which an induction motor (island mode w/ capacitors for reactive power) supplies a variable rotational speed/frequency input and I need a constant speed/frequency output. In other words, I have an input, single phase voltage signal which will vary from 0-60Hz, and I...

Unfortunately, gas station metering has nothing to do with my application. The fuel is not even gasoline. I intentionally kept the functional specification generic to get a more comprehensive response. David www.mavenpower.com
