Woodward SIL-3 Safety Systems

The new API670 standards require a total systems approach to meet the safety levels required in the industry. Woodward is a leader in delivering steam turbine safety systems to meet these new standards. Woodward’s SIL-3 enabled safety systems with integrated package of ProTech, QuickTrip, and certified sensors reduce installation costs and allow you to meet the safety requirements for small, medium, or large steam turbine applications.

Woodward turbine safety systems precisely and reliably scan rotor speed and other key turbine operating parameters over 40 times per second.

Sensors

These speed sensors are designed for use in SIL-3, SIL-2, or SIL-1 (safety integrity level) rated turbine or engine safety systems. When applied with a SIL rated logic solver and final element, users can easily create an overspeed safety instrumented function (SIF) which meets the required safety integrity level for the specific application.

Systems

Woodward’s new SIL-3 certified ProTech safety and machinery protection platform leverages decades of pedigree and is designed to meet API specifications.

The platform ranges from the simplex version to a full TMR based control that also monitors up to 10 different machinery sensors/devices (ProTech TPS) to provide a full blanket of protection for your equipment.

In addition to the Protech range, Woodward’s QuickTrip fault tolerant trip block design makes it ideal for critical steam turbine applications, where turbine up-time and availability are essential. This trip block assembly’s 2-out-of-3 voting design provides users with a very high level of system reliability as well as compliance with industry standard API-670.
