Steam turbines are complex as they are potentially dangerous, but modern safety controls and protocols make operation simpler and safer. Current purpose-built digital safety systems and controls are more reliable, preventing overspeed events and allowing more accurate machine dynamics tuning.

These upgrades can also increase your Safety Integrity Level (SIL) rating and reduce your insurance premiums.

Handling these modernizations is no small task. You need an experienced system integrator. Someone who understands the process and application. Someone with the knowledge and experience to provide you with real, noticeable improvements.

Since 2001, Peaker Services has provided numerous steam turbine control repairs and retrofits in North America. We maintain and modernize steam turbine systems of all sizes whether generating electric power, boiler steam support, or mechanical driven power by using proven techniques and SIL (safety integrity level) guided improvements associated with API 611, 612, and 670 protocols.

We provide the following services:

• Repair and overhaul of Woodward electro-hydraulic actuators and hydraulic mechanical governors, such as TM-25LP, EHPC, VariStroke, TG, PG-PL, and PG-D

• Debug and repair steam turbine control systems

• System modernization with digital controllers such as the Peak 200, single and dual-redundant 505 Series Turbine Controls, and the triple redundant 5009XT controls

• Update steam turbine systems with modern cyber secure controls like the 5009XT and Protech TPS overspeed protection

• Installing Safety Upgrades including turbine shutdown trip blocks, QuikTrip, shut-off valve actuators, and overspeed protection

• Control room and switchgear SCADA upgrades to centralize multi-turbine controls

• Safety and control system training

We can accommodate your outage schedule. No steam turbine system is too complex for us, having provided upgrades to steam turbines in refineries, steel plants, and utilities. We are also experienced in supporting critical applications like hospitals and universities.
