II (per IEC 60664-1) Power Supply Requirements Each ProTech-GII system consists of three separate internal modules (A, B, C), and each of these three modules accept two input power sources. Depending on the ProTech-GII model purchased, the internal modules will accept either two high voltage (HV) input power sources or one HV input power source and one low voltage (LV) input power source.
Page 24
Input #2: Low Voltage Power Supply (18–32 Vdc) @ 90 W (30 W per module) o Nominally 24 Vdc Each ProTech-GII module will function normally with power sourced to both or either power supply input independently, however Woodward recommends that both input power sources be used to improve system availability. Please refer to Table 1-1 for available ProTech-GII models.
Do not run shielded signal wires with other wires carrying large currents or high voltages. See Woodward manual 50532, EMI Control in Electronic Governing Systems, for more information.
EXPLOSION HAZARD—Do not connect or disconnect while circuit is live unless area is known to be non-hazardous. Figures 2-8 and 2-9 show the control wiring diagrams for the ProTech-GII system. Refer to Figure 2-10 for proper routing and stress relief of field wiring entering the ProTech-GII system.

Manual 26545 Speed Sensor Inputs To sense speed, each ProTech-GII module (A, B, C) accepts a signal from a speed sensor mounted reading off of a gear connected or coupled to the turbine’s rotor or engine’s crank shaft. Speed sensors may be any of the following: ...
Refer to Figure 2-12 for wiring information. In general, an input contact signal must change state for a minimum of 10 milliseconds for a ProTech-GII module to sense and register a change in state. The Dedicated Discrete Inputs are Start, Reset and Speed-Fail-Override.
Figure 2-13. Example Analog Output Wiring Relay Outputs Two basic ProTech-GII model variations are available depending on the required trip system architecture: the “Independent Trip Relay” model and the “Voted Trip Relay” model. Either version also has 3 programmable Relay Outputs per module.
24 Vdc @ 1 A. Two of these relay outputs are dedicated as redundant trip signal outputs, and the third is the Alarm relay. The Independent Trip Relay ProTech-GII models are designed so the each set of trip relays drive one of three external independent trip solenoids, typically used in 2-o-o-3 voted trip block assemblies.
Note that with the “Voted Trip Relay” ProTech-GII models, the two solid-state trip relays located on each module (A, B, C) are not available for use or connection. Each module’s trip signal relays are connected internally to the ProTech-GII in a 2-o-o-3 voted fashion to drive two redundant Form-C trip relays.
Figure 2-14f. Example Alarm Relay Wiring (External Supply) Internal Power Supplies for Discrete Signals One internal 24 V power supply is available within each ProTech-GII module for driving external relay coils. The power supply utilizes an internal circuit shutdown to protect the power supply from over-current conditions.
ProTech-GII Overspeed Protection Device Manual 26545 If additional current capability is needed the Voter & Alarm relay connection points may be used as controlled switch contact connection points with an external power supply. An external supply may be used instead of the internal supply only for the independent trip relays or alarm relay as shown in Figure 2- 14f.
Figure 2-16a. Serial Port Interface Diagram—RS-232 Optional termination resistors for RS-485 communication networks are included within the ProTech-GII control’s internal circuitry, and only require terminal block wire jumper(s) for connection to a network, for applications requiring these termination resistors. Refer to Figure 2-18b for jumper connections.
ProTech-GII Overspeed Protection Device Manual 26545 Service Port Communications One 9-pin Sub-D based service port per module (A, B, C) is available to interface with a computer for loading program settings into the ProTech and for reading stored log files from the ProTech using the Programming and Configuration Tool (PCT).
Product Models section of this chapter. Each of the three ProTech-GII modules A, B, and C are fully fault isolated from each other, so that faults in one module do not affect other modules. The modules do not share input or output information but each module is aware of the status of the others.

ProTech-GII Overspeed Protection Device Manual 26545 Internally Generated Limited Power Supply Relay Output Power Supply (24V_P) 24 Vdc ±10% Output Voltage 500 mA Current Limit Inputs and Outputs Speed Sensor Inputs Each module has one speed input which can be programmed to accept a passive MPU (magnetic pickup unit), or an active speed sensor (proximity probe signal or an eddy current probe signal).
Page 53
Each speed input is designed to operate from its own speed probe. Do not connect a speed probe to more than one input. This will compromise the ability of the ProTech-GII to sense open wire (passive mode only) and interfere with the minimum amplitude sensitivity and accuracy.

The Dedicated Discrete Inputs are Start, Reset and Speed-Fail-Override. Start This contact input is used as part of the Start Logic “Speed Fail Timeout Trip”...
No custom application program is required to be loaded for this functionality to operate normally. The ProTech-GII senses speed and then compares the sensed speed to its programmed overspeed trip setpoint to detect an overspeed condition and generate a trip command.
Peak speed and peak acceleration are tracked and logged for every overspeed and over-acceleration occurrence, the last 20 occurrences logged and can be viewed from a front panel or loaded to a computer via the ProTech-GII Programming and Configuration Tool (PCT).
Manual 26545 ProTech-GII Overspeed Protection Device Figure 3-9. Speed Fail Trip Diagram Speed Fail Timeout Trip If the “Speed Fail Timeout Trip” is Enabled, the sensed speed must exceed the Speed Fail Setpoint within the Speed Fail Timeout Time after a Start signal occurs, otherwise a Speed Fail Timeout Trip occurs.
ProTech-GII Overspeed Protection Device Manual 26545 Test Routines Each ProTech-GII module provides a variety of test routines to support common test requirements. In general, a test may not be started if any other module is tripped or in test or if the current module is tripped or in test.
Page 59
This test can only be performed from the front panel of the ProTech-GII. When the test is initiated, the frequency generator automatically starts at 100 rpm below the overspeed setpoint.
In the “Voted Trip Relay” version of the ProTech-GII, at least two modules would have to be in the tripped state for the voter relay to go to its tripped state.
Page 61
Manual 26545 ProTech-GII Overspeed Protection Device A "trip" of the module refers to the action of the ProTech-GII module changing the state of its Trip output. When any of the Trip Latch inputs becomes true, the output of the trip latch is set TRUE. The red TRIPPED light is illuminated on the front panel.
Each module in the ProTech-GII logs (saves to memory) all trips, alarms, and overspeed or over-acceleration events. Peak speed and peak acceleration are also logged. The logs can be viewed from the front panel of the ProTech-GII or from the PCT tool. With PCT tool, the Configuration Error Log can also be viewed.

10 seconds or the sequence must be re-initiated. The ProTech-GII is designed to allow only one module to be tested at a time. Thus a module will only accept an Initiate Test command and perform the requested test if all three modules are healthy, not tripped, and not in a test mode.
Since Modbus can only handle integers, values that require a decimal point in the Modbus Master Device are multiplied by a scaling constant before being sent by ProTech-GII. See the Modbus list for the scaling used on each analog parameter. Boolean Writes (Code 05) Boolean Write registers are used by an external master device (plant DCS, etc.)
Analog Reads (Code 04) Analog Read registers are used by an external master device (plant DCS, etc.) to read the value of internal ProTech-GII module signals (hardware inputs, logic blocks, hardware outputs, etc.). An example of an analog read value would be actual speed.
For more in depth help, use the Programming and Configuration Tool provided with the ProTech-GII. The entry point for troubleshooting the ProTech-GII is the state of the three LEDs on lower part of the front panel. The Trip Log and the Alarm Log can also be viewed from the front panel.

These products are certified for use in applications up to SIL3 according to IEC61508. Safe State The ProTech-GII is designed so that the safe state can be configured for either de-energize or energize to trip. De-energize to trip will place trip relays into their unpowered, normally open state.
< 20 ms Versions The response time of the ProTech-GII is the time from when a signal is received at the ProTech-GII terminal blocks that is out of a range as defined by the programming (i.e. speed, analog input) to the point where the trip relays have changed state.
Immunity: EN61000-6-2 Management of Functional Safety The ProTech-GII is intended for use according to the requirements of a safety lifecycle management process such as IEC61508 or IEC61511. The safety performance numbers in this chapter can be used for the evaluation of the overall safety lifecycle.
Functional Testing after Initial Installation A functional test of the ProTech-GII is required prior to use as a safety system. This should be done as part of the overall safety system installation check and should include all I/O interfaces to and from the ProTech-GII that are part of the safety system.
