　　8516-043  Mechanical-Hydraulic Turbine Governor

　　Product Positioning and Series Affiliation

　　Core Series Characteristics:

　　UG Series: Suitable for diesel/gas/dual-fuel engines and steam turbines, speed range 375-1500 RPM, supports clockwise/counterclockwise drive, output torque 5.2-11.7 ft-lbs (UG5.7/8/10), oil pressure 120-150 PSI, temperature range -40°F~220°F.

　　TG Series: Such as TG-13E/17E, which are electro-hydraulic actuators, output torque 16.5/23.7 N·m, built-in independent oil source, compatible with 20-160mA control signals, suitable for steam turbines, generators, compressors, etc., and compliant with UL safety standards.

　　Rotation Direction: The drive shaft rotation direction is clearly marked "Clockwise (CW)" and must be consistent with the rotation direction of the turbine/engine shaft (observed from the top of the governor). Otherwise, the oil pump will not be able to build up oil pressure, potentially leading to equipment malfunction.

　　Output Capacity: The TG-17 model has a maximum output torque of 23.7 N·m (17.5 ft-lb) and a maximum output shaft rotation angle of 40°. The recommended stroke from no-load to full-load is 2/3 of the full stroke (approximately 26.7°).

　　Speed Range: The typical speed range is 2400-4000 rpm (must be specified when ordering). Higher speed models (e.g., 4000-6000 rpm) may require heat exchanger cooling.

　　Droop Adjustment: Supports droop adjustment via screw or lever mechanism. Factory preset but internally adjustable to suit different load characteristics.

　　Hydraulic System: Features an independent oil source (TG-13E: 1034 kPa, TG-17E: 1379 kPa), approximately 1.7 L of oil, requiring petroleum-based or synthetic hydraulic oil (SAE 10-50, viscosity 100-300 SUS). Externally supplied oil types require a pressure of 1034-1172 kPa and a particle size ≤25 microns.

　　Structural Features: The output shaft uses a 0.625-36 serrated spline. The drive shaft rotation direction must be consistent with the turbine drive direction (clockwise/counterclockwise indicated on the nameplate). Incorrect rotation will lead to hydraulic pressure failure and component jamming.

　　Working Principle:

　　Centrifugal Sensing: Speed changes are sensed via a flyweight/centrifugal pendulum. The centrifugal force balances with the speed regulating spring force, driving the control valve to move.

　　Hydraulic Amplification: The valve controls the oil circuit, driving the servo piston or output shaft to adjust the fuel/steam valve opening, achieving stable speed.

　　Feedback Mechanism: Closed-loop control is achieved through a flexible feedback system (such as a feedback plunger or needle valve) to ensure adjustment accuracy and stability.

　　Installation and Maintenance Points

　　Installation Requirements

　　Vertical installation is the standard configuration. For horizontal installation, the vent valve cover and output shaft position need to be adjusted (approximately 5°-6° drift). The drive shaft speed must match the oil pump specifications.

　　Transmission Mechanism Inspection: Check the gear/worm gear meshing (contact area ≥65%), measure the tooth flank/tooth tip clearance, and conduct regular flaw detection.

　　Maintenance Cycle

　　Regularly check the oil quality (SAE10-50 oil), filter particle size ≤25 microns; the oil filter needs to be cleaned or replaced. For external oil supply types, monitor the flow rate (4-15L/min).

　　Commissioning Content: Measure the working oil pressure, adjust the needle valve, set the speed range, adjust the speed variation rate, and test the lag rate.

　　Drive Direction Verification: During installation, strictly verify the drive shaft rotation direction (clockwise/counterclockwise) to match the equipment nameplate markings to prevent insufficient oil pressure build-up.

　　Overspeed Protection: An overspeed stop device independent of the control system (such as mechanical overspeed protection or the ProTech203 electronic system) must be configured to prevent runaway accidents.

　　Lubrication and Cooling: The internal oil pump pressure needs to be checked regularly (approximately 1034 kPa for TG-13, approximately 1379 kPa for TG-17). For high-speed models, ensure the heat exchanger is functioning properly.

　　Troubleshooting: Common problems include speed fluctuations (check the oil circuit, springs, and feedback system), jamming (poor lubrication or foreign objects), and insufficient oil pressure (oil pump failure or oil circuit leaks). Troubleshooting should be performed step-by-step according to the manual.

　　Technical Parameters and Functions

　　Drive and Steering: Supports clockwise/counterclockwise rotation. The drive shaft speed range varies depending on the model (e.g., UG series 375-1500 RPM, TG series with built-in oil pump adaptable 1100-6000 RPM). Steering can be adjusted by rotating the pump body 180°.

　　Control Characteristics:

　　Linearity<0.5%, hysteresis <3% of maximum stroke, temperature drift ±2°/100°C.

　　Supports zero-error/error-error adjustment (permanent slip coefficient adjustable from 0-6%), achieving stable adjustment through a damper and residual imbalance mechanism.

　　Application Scenarios: Widely used in power generation (generator sets), marine power, industrial machinery (pumps, compressors), oil and gas equipment, transportation (locomotives/ship main engines), etc., ensuring stable speed control of equipment under different loads/operating conditions.

　　Industrial Applications

　　Suitable for small steam turbines, generator sets, ships, oil and gas, and manufacturing industries (e.g., pumps, fans, compressors, papermaking machinery). For example, the TG-13 (8516-038) achieves speed regulation in steam turbines by controlling steam flow, supporting zero-delay speed control or load sharing.

　　Special Design: A rigid feedback system ensures stable speed under load changes; the damper can be adjusted to elastic feedback to reduce speed fluctuations; ATEX-certified models support explosion-proof environments.

　　Digital Controller Expansion

　　505/505E Series: Used in industrial steam turbines and small grid turbine generators, supporting speed regulation, load sharing, cascade PID control, and overspeed protection.

　　2301A/2301D Series: Applied to generator sets driven by diesel engines, gasoline engines, and steam turbines, supporting speed and load sharing control, compatible with harsh environments.

　　Series Differences

　　TG Series: Mechanical-hydraulic differential speed governor, suitable for small steam turbines that do not require synchronous operation; TG-13E/TG-17E are electro-hydraulic actuators, supporting zero-delay speed control and load sharing, compatible with electronic controllers.

　　505/505E Series: Digital controller, supporting multi-parameter adjustment (such as steam pressure, power limiting) and communication interface, suitable for generator set or isolated grid control.

　　2301A/2301D Series: Microprocessor control, supporting load sharing and speed control, wiring ports are compatible with older models, facilitating upgrades.
