Control solutions to the Oil & Gas, Chemical and Petrochemical industries world wideThe turbine governor control or Steam Turbine Control Application (STCA-GP) developed by Control-Care enables fully automated speed control during normal operation as well as start-up/shutdown speed control including critical speed avoidance. It provides a versatile and economical way to regulate your steam turbine’s speed, protects the turbine against overspeed damage and automatically sequences startups and shutdowns. The STCA is fully configurable to API611 general purpose steam turbines and is typically integrated into the train control system. This integration results in improved train control system availability and reliability as well as in reduced system cost.
