Product Specification 03365
505E (Extraction / Admission)
Digital Control for Steam Turbines Applications
The 505E controller is
designed to operate
single-extraction
and/or admission
steam turbines of all
sizes and
applications. This
steam turbine
controller includes
specifically designed
algorithms and logic
to start, stop, control,
and protect single
extraction and/or
admission steam
turbines or turboexpanders, driving generators, compressors, pumps, or industrial fans. The 505E
control’s unique PID structure makes it ideal for applications where it is required to
control steam plant parameters like turbine speed, turbine load, turbine inlet
pressure, exhaust header pressure, extraction or admission header pressure, or tie
line power.
The control’s special PID-to-PID logic allows stable control during normal turbine
operation and bumpless control mode transfers during plant upsets, minimizing
process over- or undershoot conditions. The 505E controller senses turbine speed
via passive or active speed probes and controls the steam turbine through HP and
LP actuators connected to the turbine steam valves.
03365
The 505E controller senses extraction and or admission pressure via a 4–20 mA
transducer and uses a PID through a ratio/limiter function to accurately control
extraction and/or admission header pressure, while protecting the turbine from
operating outside of its designed operating envelope. The controller uses the specific
turbine’s OEM steam map to calculate its valve-to-valve decoupling algorithms and
the turbine operating and protection limits.
Description
The 505E control is packaged in an industrial hardened enclosure designed to be
mounted within a system control panel located in a plant control room or next to the
turbine. The control’s front panel serves as both a programming station and operator
control panel (OCP). This user-friendly front panel allows engineers to access and
program the unit to the specific plant’s requirements, and plant operators to easily
start/stop the turbine and enable/disable any control mode. Password security is
used to protect all unit program mode settings. The unit’s two-line display allows
operators to view actual and setpoint values from the same screen, simplifying
turbine operation.
Turbine interface input and output wiring access is located on the controller’s lower
back panel. Unpluggable terminal blocks allow for easy system installation,
troubleshooting, and replacement.
Cost‐Effective Design
The 505E control is designed to function as the turbine control,
system sequencer, operator control panel, and first-out
indicator. This encompassing design minimizes external
system devices as well as system installation, wiring, and
troubleshooting.
This field configurable controller allows major functional changes
to be made at site, often by knowledgeable plant personnel, and
minor functional changes to be on-line as process changes
require. The 505E control’s first-out-indicator logic indicates
internal as well as external system related alarm and shutdown
conditions, greatly simplifying and reducing system
troubleshooting.
Communications
The 505E controls can communicate directly with plant
Distributed Control Systems and/or CRT-based operator
control panels, through two Modbus® * communication ports.
These ports support RS-232. RS-422. and RS-485
communications using ASCII or RTU Modbus protocols.
Communications between the 505E and a plant DCS can also
be performed through hardwired connections. Since all 505E
PID setpoints can be controlled through analog input signals,
interface resolution and control is not sacrificed.

configurations. Optionally, this service tool can also be used to
trend unit parameters, to compare differences in configuration
files, and to verify if control settings have been changed.
