Description

WOODWARD 9907-164 Digital Turbine Governor Control Module Documentation

1. Product Overview

The WOODWARD 9907-164 is a CE/UL-certified digital microprocessor controller module designed for steam turbines, turbogenerators, and turboexpanders. As part of the Woodward 505/505E series, it offers precise control over turbine speed, load, and critical operations like startup and shutdown. The 9907-164 supports single extraction or admission configurations, leveraging split-stage actuators to manage steam inlet valves efficiently. Its rugged design and EMI/RFI shielding ensure reliability in harsh industrial environments.

3. Advantages and Features

  • Precision Control:
    • Critical speed avoidance and auto-start sequence optimize turbine performance.
    • Valve limiters prevent overloading during operation.
  • Flexibility:
    • Programmable I/O configuration adapts to diverse turbine setups.
    • Supports both isochronous (fixed speed) and droop (variable speed) modes.
  • Reliability:
    • Self-diagnostic capabilities and first-out shutdown indicators reduce downtime.
    • CE/UL certification ensures compliance with global safety standards.

4. Application Areas and Use Cases

  • Energy: Power plants, combined cycle systems.
  • Manufacturing: Industrial steam turbines for process control.
  • Oil & Gas: Turboexpanders in cryogenic applications.
Case Study: A North American power plant integrated the 9907-164 to manage a steam turbine fleet, achieving 98.5% uptime and a 15% reduction in maintenance costs through predictive diagnostics.

5. Competitive Comparison

The 9907-164 distinguishes itself with:
  • Dual Communication Options: Native Modbus RTU and RS-232/422 compatibility for seamless integration with DCS systems.
  • Field Configurability: Front-panel keypad and LCD allow on-site adjustments without external tools.
  • Redundancy Support: Expandable I/O for dual-actuator setups, enhancing system resilience.

6. Selection Recommendations

  • Application Type: Choose the 9907-164 for single-extraction turbines; opt for higher models (e.g., 9907-167) for multi-stage configurations.
  • Environment: Ensure compatibility with operating temperatures (-40°C to +60°C) and humidity (95% RH for 48 hours).
  • Software: Pair with Woodward’s 505 View or OP View™ for advanced monitoring and troubleshooting.

7. Precautions

  • Installation: Use shielded cables for analog inputs to minimize noise interference.
  • Load Management: Avoid exceeding 20mA output to prevent actuator damage.
  • Calibration: Schedule annual checks to verify sensor accuracy and software updates.
