3500 Monitoring System for TSI Applications

Share this course

This hands-on course with a focus on Turbine Supervisory Instrumentation (TSI) is a continuation of the standard 3500 Operation and Maintenance course. Topics include configuring and verifying the monitors:  the 3500/45 with differential and case expansion, valve position, and thrust; the 3500/50 with rotor speed, zero speed, rotor acceleration; the 3500/42 with eccentricity and thrust. Workshops include practice with live data monitors and racks.

 

Duration:

Audience:
  • 3500 monitoring system users
  • Engineers who maintain and troubleshoot 3500 monitoring systems
  • Instrument technicians
Objectives:
  • Explain the operational differences between the 8mm, 25mm, 35mm, and 50mm probes.
  • Demonstrate the proper technique to install and verify the scale factor for an LVDT for Case Expansion or Valve Position while verifying at the 3500 system for accuracy.
  • Explain and show mathematically the voltages required for installing Differential Expansion probes and verify at the 3500 system.
  • Explain and show mathematically the voltages required for installing the Eccentricity probe and verify at the 3500 system.
  • Explain the proper procedure for installing Keyphasor and Rotor speed/Rotor Acceleration probe.
  • Connect field wiring for specific input signals to the 3500 Monitoring System and verify signals.
