Speedtronic Mark VIe Gas Turbine Control Systems
GE’s Mark VIe Distributed Control System (DCS) provides total plant control at a single level, combining the gas turbine, steam turbine, generator, boiler or HRSG, as well as balance-of plant equipment control in a single distributed architecture.
Built on our years of experience of providing superior turbine controls, GE’s Mark VIe control system is a flexible solution for today’s industry needs. The Mark VIe supports the most advanced turbine technology enabled by modern model-based control, providing a reliable, high-performance control system and the support to reduce plant lifecycle cost.
MARK VIE CONTROLLER
At the heart of the Mark VIe system is thecontroller that includes the main processor and triplicated Ethernet drivers to communicate with networked I/O, and additional Ethernet drivers for the control network. A set of two or three controllers can be used to providedual or TMR control.
- Single, dual or TMR Redundant System Configuration (power supplies, CPU’s, IO, & protection modules) to provide high availability with appropriate flexibility.
- Synchronized Memory – assures that both CPUs use the same operating information in all situations.
- Real-time true dual redundancy without failover time delays.
