The Safe Choice for Reliable Turbine Operation

Emerson offers low-risk,  full-scope solutions that combine powerful Ovation™ automation

technology with high-performance controlstrategies, field-proven retrofit packages,

experienced project execution and comprehensive lifecycle services.

We provide turbine controls that improve unit operations, streamline maintenance

and enhance operator performance.

Platform

Emerson’s turbine solutions are based on the Ovation platform featuring redundant controllers,

fast Ethernet networks, integrated SIL3 safety system and a full range of native

turbine-specific I/O for speed, overspeed, servo positioner, vibration and generator excitation.

Ovation’s advanced diagnostics, pre-programmed governor control, high-speed data logging

and best-in-class cybersecurity protection are ideally suited for turbine control.

Applications

To deliver maximum operating efficiency and flexibility,Emerson’s turbine control experts

have developed advanced applications for automated tuning and improved starting

reliability for gas turbines; optimized startup for steam turbines; and enhanced antisurge

for compressors. We have alliances with leading turbine providers to offer full turbine

service and uprate packages.

Project Capabilities

Emerson understands that downtime is critical, so we provideturnkey, fully-engineered

and field-proven ‘drop-in’ retrofits to reduce outage time and commissioning risk.

A complete range of turbine upgrades and services are available for hydraulic

systems, instrumentation and valves, integrated compressor controls and

optimization technologies.

Lifecycle Services

Emerson’s support continues well after commissioning with maintenance,

reliability and performance services for continued safe and reliable turbine operation.

We offer an array of  field, educational, system and cybersecurity services that can

be combined to form a customized lifecycle strategy.

The Turbine Control Experts

For over half a century, Emerson has been an industry leader in delivering proven control

and protection systems for critical turbines in both the commercial utility and industrial

process industries. Through years of experience, we understand the impact of efficient

control to achieving the highest levels of reliability and availability.

Our systems are specifically designed to meet demanding requirements for safe and

reliable operation of units ranging from small industrial gas turbines to large

utility-grade steam turbines.

Gas Turbines

Emerson provides control systems for new-build gas turbines and aftermarket retrofits.

Our portfolio includes work on major gas turbine models from small aeroderivatives

to the latest advanced F- and G-class units  manufactured by General Electric, Siemens,

ABB/Alstom, Ansaldo, Pratt & Whitney, Rolls Royce and others.

Steam Turbines

Emerson has a long history as a trusted global supplier of steam turbine controls,

delivering solutions for both new-build installations and retrofits to all the major

OEM steam turbine types. We also offer a complete range of upgrades for older

hydraulic governors.
