Special Pressure Transmitting Controllers for Hydropower Stations

Governor system problems in hydropower stations:

In old hydropower stations, the governor of water turbines is a mechanical hydraulic type. Such an oil-hydraulic system is a source of power for automatically adjusting the speed of the water turbine assembly and its on-off service operation. Due to the weakness in automatic control and the existence of long service, the governor system repeatedly fails in effectively regulating rotate speed of hydro turbines generating set and the power output. 

As the operating system of the governor system, the oil-hydraulic system impacts the adjustment of the hydro turbines directly according to its normality and reliability of its operating pressure.

The governor makes the unit unsafe due to its simple design automatic system, frequent operation, low protection and high oil pressure displacement. Some of the problems of these governors are as following:

Inefficient protection, no use of proper equipment, no proper man-machine interface for transmitting signals and low contact capacity of the electric contact pressure.

Special Pressure Transmitting Controllers for Hydropower Stations

To solve the failure problems in the old governors, special pressure transmitting controllers have been designed that improve the automatic control system of the governor oil hydraulic device.

New pressure transmitting controllers are very reliable:

These controllers are very reliable due to being equipped with relays (which recognize high load capacity), the ability to regulate the action point of the controller and prevent action shifts, and the ability to control the pressure and the automatic air make-up of the oil hydraulic system.
New pressure transmitting controllers have the ability of real-time display and monitor:

These controllers have the ability of real-time display and monitor due to different standard and stable analog outputs. Another reason for being capable of real-time display and monitor is that the Pressure transmitting controllers output analog and switch signals that can be input to the respective PLC, offering an essential basis for "automatic system controls governor system" and parameters for automatic and manual adjustment of LCU system.
New pressure transmitting controllers bring complete systematic protection:

These controllers provide complete protection due to having alarm point of accident oil pressure and precise and stable output.
New pressure transmitting controllers have optimal installation.
