Young & Franklin Delivers Electric Fuel Control
07 June 2006 15:42
Young & Franklin adds the upgraded 3010 Series Electromechanically Actuated (EMA) Gas Fuel Control Valve to their growing product line of electric controls for industrial or aeroderivative gas turbine fuel control.
The 3010 Series is part of Y&F's complete shipset of electrically actuated products designed to replace hydraulic controls for the midsize gas turbine market. The valves are available in 1", 2" and 3" sizes. Custom profile balanced trim designs offer greater dynamic response for both industrial and aeroderivative applications. Included with each valve is a digital servodrive controller with Type 4 / IP65 ingress protection that offers precision closed-loop position control through a resolver or optional LVDT feedback. The 3010's failsafe design includes a spring to close the valve in the event of a turbine trip or signal/power loss.
"Y&F has provided fuel controls on over 10,000 turbines worldwide so we understand the requirements of industrial gas turbines," says Eric Sohne, Director, Sales and New Business Development. "Our engineers have delivered a compact unit that provides excellent control and maintenance characteristics while meeting the stringent reliability and safety requirements of the application."
Young & Franklin's EMA valves have been field tested over the past five years on controls upgrade projects. This successful performance has led the major OEM in our industry to select Y&F's electric controls suite for their new "all-electric turbine" now on the market.
Y&F's EMA products are built to the same high standards as their hydraulic versions. In addition to the 3010 Series EMA Gas Fuel Control Valves, Y&F offers electric liquid fuel control valves, IGV actuators, air bleed valves, inlet bleed heat valves, stop/ratio valves and isolation valves.
