TTS has recently installed and successfully commissioned a new TMS-1000 gas turbine control system on two MS5001 gas turbine generators at a steel mill in Monclova, Mexico. With this upgrade the original OEM gas turbine control system was replaced with a new digital PLC based control system. As part of the upgrade the hydraulic gas fuel control valves were replaced with new high-speed ElectroFlo® Electronic fuel valves thereby eliminating the need for maintenance intensive hydraulic servos resulting in better fuel scheduling to the turbines.
With these upgrades the gas turbine generators will improve the reliability of power production to the mill during peak load demands.
