The LMA 8.5 Megawatt
Power Generation Package
The LMA-1500 (8.5MW continuous run-10MW peak power) power generation package uses a fully
refurbished LM 1500 engine as its core. Each turbine is stripped down to the
component level. Using OEM criteria, all components are completely and thoroughly cleaned,
inspected and certified.
With advanced coatings, rotor blades are balanced using American HuffmanTM balance
machines, the best in the industry, to assure better than original balance in the critical
rotor sections to eliminate vibration. The new SermaFlowTM type coatings
mean less fouling, greater time between repair and maintaining engine efficiency longer
than ever. New bearing technologies are used to supersede OEM requirements. No
surface is left unchecked; all wear parts are replaced.
Coupled to the engine through an advanced dry coupling, designed to virtually eliminate
alignment problems and minimize vibration, the power turbine connects to an epicyclical
reduction gearbox, reducing engine output from 5,500 rpm to 1,800 rpm. The gearbox is in
turn connected through a patented rigid mating surface to the generator, eliminating a
coupling, eliminating an alignment point and eliminating a vibration point.
The generator provided can be wound to your specific needs including accommodating local
requirements for voltage and frequency. The generator output quality as well as safety
functions and stop/start functions are controlled by a microprocessor based control
package provided by one of the leading industry providers.
This package provides grid synchronization as well as voltage regulation within tolerances
that exceed what is normally available in the conventional grid while maintaining
harmonics and distortion far superior to utility grade power. |

Innovative designs extend
to the auxiliaries as well as including advancements in lubricating oil skid design to
maximize throughput and minimize footprint through the use of modular components (which
also means ease of repair and maintenance.) |

The starter system provides superior
performance over conventional air starter designs. To accommodate environmentally
sensitive areas, full sound enclosures can be provided as on option which include gas
detection and fire detection/suppression systems. Air inlets can be equipped with optional
advanced filtration for high dust loaded area as well as sound suppression baffles. |

Exhaust gases can be treated with
optional selective catalytic reduction units to meet local air quality management district
regulations. You can control the final configuration of the package to suit your project
requirements. |
