Advanced Gas Turbine Control Systems
Advanced gas turbine control systems were designed specifically for the retrofit of heavy duty gas turbine controls; in particular, the Speedtronic and LA families of turbine controllers.
It is a competitive alternative solution for the replacement of older control technology. The turbine control philosophy of the original system is maintained and it is easily adapted to site-specific requirements.
