Gas Turbine Air Controls
Air control is becoming more and more necessary to meet the emission requirements for operational GTs. It improves the starting reliability and load flexibility of gas turbines. The tighter demands of necessary emission control call for highly accurate and responsive air control VGV or VIGV control is vital, with OEMs adding multiple independent drives. Air bleed for compressor control and anti icing is vital.
In the last ten years HEINZMANN has supplied hundreds of electric guide vane servo systems to a gas turbine OEM in Europe for machines from 4 through 20 MW shaft power. HEINZMANN now offers electric bleed air control valves for the same range of turbines based on its high-performance electric actuation technology.
