(REF: OTSMKVI001)

Course Objectives

To obtain an understanding of the operations of a MK VI Control System.

Course Description

This course covers the operations of a Gas Turbine as controlled by a MK VI

Speedtronic Control System. The course will introduce the student to the Major

Components of a Gas Turbine and associated systems. Operational sequences

will be discussed for the major varieties of GE Gas Turbines and Gas Turbine

applications. The use of a Gas Turbine Speedtronic simulator will allow

students to view various operational problems and introduce the concepts of

basic troubleshooting and fault finding.

Who Should Attend

This is an excellent course for plant operators/technicians responsible for the

day-to-day operations of a Gas Turbine. The course will also benefit maintenance

personnel who are involved in the troubleshooting of operational problems. Shift

supervisors and Team Leaders will also find the course beneficial.

Pre-Requisites

All Attendees should have a sound power generation background and have used a

MK VI Control system.

Course Outcome

At the end of this course you will be able to manage the operations of a Gas Turbine

using MK VI.
