This manual describes the installation and configuration procedures for the Woodward 2301E-HT digital speed control for Francis turbines (p/n 8237-2046). The 2301E-HT controls the speed and load of Francis hydraulic turbines with one gate analog output in generator applications. The control hardware includes: ...
Only qualified and trained personnel must prepare and install the unit. Qualified Personnel This chapter provides general information about how to install the 2301E-HT digital control for Francis turbines. For detailed information about how to perform the product installation, see Manual 26691 (2300E Hardware Manual).
Released Manual 35092 2301E-HT Hydro (Francis Turbines) Figure 2-1c. 2301E-HT Control Wiring Diagram Notes In this application the load share lines are not used. The CAN communication is also not used. Woodward...
Description of I/O The 2301E-HT digital speed control has a wide selection of functions from a fixed amount of I/O (inputs and outputs). The control can be configured in the field to use the I/O to best fit the specific application.
Page 14
Gate Limit Raise & Gate Limit Lower: When one of these discrete inputs is closed, the Gate Limit ramps up or down at a configurable rate. The 2301E-HT is designed so that Gate Limit control is not necessary, but it is available if required by the application. Gate Limit Raise and Lower can also be done through Modbus.
Modbus analog write is going to be used or not). If this discrete input is opened, the 2301E-HT controller will only accept discrete commands. If there isn’t any discrete input configured for Local/Remote function, then the commands can come either by discrete inputs or by Modbus commands.
Analog Inputs and two configurable Analog Outputs. The configuration possibilities for these I/O’s are the same of the analog inputs/outputs that are embedded on the 2301E-HT hardware. This module communicates with the 2301E-HT hardware through CAN bus. The figures below show the types of LINKnet HT modules allowed to work with this 2301E-HT:...
Start, Stop and Gate Limit When the 2301E-HT control is given a start command, the control resets itself and pauses for 4 to 5 seconds. This allows time for the alarms and shutdown conditions to clear. Once all shutdowns have...
At some point during this sequence, the turbine should reach its rated speed and the 2301E-HT will start controlling speed. If the control does not sense at least the “Start Speed” by the time the “Time to Start Speed” timer has expired, then the control issues an emergency shutdown due to an Incomplete Start.
Speed Signal Processing The 2301E-HT for Francis turbines has two speed signal inputs. The 2301E-HT accepts any sine wave or square wave provided by a speed sensor that is proportional to the speed of the turbine. This can come from magnetic pickups.
Page 21
When the generator breaker opens, the speed set point returns to the “Speed-No-Load Ref.” The 2301E-HT digital control has two sets of PID gains, off-line and on-line. The only difference between off-line control and isochronous control is that the off-line gains are used during off-line control and the on-line gains are used during isochronous control.
Released Manual 35092 2301E-HT Hydro (Francis Turbines) a +0.1% speed change (60.00 Hz to 60.06 Hz) will result in a gate position change of 2.0%. At 3% droop, the same speed fluctuation would result in a gate position change of 3.3%.
Page 23
Remote Speed Reference Control Mode The Remote Speed Reference control mode provides a way of directly controlling the 2301E-HT set point remotely. The Remote Speed Reference can be the 4 to 20 mA from one of the analog inputs or it can be a value from Modbus.
Page 24
The rate at which the manual position moves the gates is the same rate that the Gate Limit ramps up and down. If the 2301E-HT control is in Manual mode and a Stop command is issued, the unit will stop at the “Unit Stop Rate.”...
Page 25
Accuracy” must be configured. This desired control accuracy has the same units as the elevation levels discussed above. If the desired control accuracy is 1 foot, the 2301E-HT will control the level, but there may be some error (less than one foot) remaining during steady state.
4 mA for 0% gate position, 12 mA for 50% gate position, and 20 mA for 100% gate position. No gain or offset adjustments are available in the 2301E-HT when a proportional signal is supplied due to the nature of the signal.
Page 27
Mismatch” Shutdown. Brake Permissive One of the 2301E-HT relay outputs can be configured to act as a Brake Permissive. If this function is configured, the relay output will close when five conditions are met: 1. the control has to receive a “Stop” command 2.
Page 28
TEST” [TRUE *FALSE] back to FALSE. When this test is performed, there is NO internal overspeed protection in the 2301E-HT control. If the mechanical overspeed device does NOT trip the unit, the speed reference will have to be manually lowered or the unit can be tripped manually.
Page 29
Released Manual 35092 2301E-HT Hydro (Francis Turbines) When the gate switch is configured as an increasing switch, the High set point is the trigger point and the Low set point is the switch’s reset point. The trigger will be triggered if the gate keeps above the High set point for the High Delay Time and it will be reset if the gate keeps below the Low set point for Low Delay Time.
Page 30
Unload and Generator Breaker Open Commands The 2301E-HT has a configurable input that can be used as an unload command. It has also a configurable output that can be used as a generator breaker open command. When the unit is in parallel with the grid in Baseload mode and an unload command is set the baseload reference starts lowering slowly (configurable rate) in order to unload the unit.
Page 31
Step Test During the initial calibration of the control system, the 2301E-HT must be calibrated for optimum performance. Step test logic is built into the 2301E-HT to aid in the tuning of the off-line PID gains and the intermediate valve gains.
Page 32
The intermediate valve gain can also be adjusted using this step test. This gain should only be adjusted when the unit is de-watered and it is safe to operate the gates. If the 2301E-HT is in Manual or Maintenance Mode of operation, the step test introduces a step change, in percent gate position, to the manual gate position.
Control Assistant PC Interface The connection of a computer is only required for calibration and setup of the 2301E-HT control on a prime mover. The computer and Control Assistant software is not required and not necessary for normal operation of the prime mover, unless Modbus is being used for monitoring.
2301E-HT when a similar system is being set up, select the Save Application Settings icon. All the tunable values presently set in the control will be saved to a file and can be loaded into this 2301E-HT control to reprogram it to the saved values or into another 2301E-HT at a later time.
