Up date 7EA Combustion system. Dual fuel Dry Low NOx nozzles
Up date 7EA Combustion system. Dual fuel Dry Low NOx nozzles
(OP)
Our company bought two 7001EA Combustion Turbines. These units have conventional natural gas only fuel nozzles and we need to up date the combustion system to Dual fuel (natural gas and fuel oil #2) Dry Low NOx (DLN) fuel nozzles.
According to the company in charge to do the job is necessary change completely the Mark V GE control system for new one from another manufacturer (For example: Schneider, Woodward or Allen Bradley).
When we try to contact GE to configurate the Mark V control system to running the units using dual fuel DLN burners they refuse the job saying that they not take the responsability about the "hardware" job because it will do for another non GE company.
Really is necessary to change the Mark V Ge Control system ?
Is possible found others companies (Non GE)to do the "Software" job for change the combustion system to DLN Dual fuel burners ?
We appreciate any advice or recommendations.
Thanks

If we learn from our mistakes I'm getting a great education!

DLN combustion hardware from one company + control software (and hardware) from another = recipe for disaster and no party taking responsibility.
GE will never reprogram a MK5 to run with a 3rd party combustion hardware
Seems like the company supplying the combustion hardware cannot reprogram the MK5: that is why they recommend changing the control system.
