The 2-cup Fuel Nozzle is a precision-engineered component used in gas turbines, specifically in the oil and gas industry. Its primary function is to inject liquid fuel into the combustion chamber in a fine, atomized spray, allowing for optimal mixing with air and efficient ignition. This ensures stable combustion, better fuel efficiency, and reduced emissions—key performance factors in industrial turbine applications.

The “2-cup” design refers to the nozzle’s dual flow passages, which help balance fuel distribution across the combustion zone. This promotes more uniform flame stability and lowers the risk of hot spots that can cause thermal stress to the turbine hardware. The nozzle is typically used on “base” engines and is suited for continuous-duty operations.

The L47197P05 variant is known for its compatibility with LM2500 turbine configurations and is built to endure harsh operating environments. It features durable materials and a design that withstands high temperatures and pressures commonly found in oil and gas turbine systems.

LM2500 Fixture, Hinge – Upper Compressor Case is a specialized tool set designed to safely raise and hinge open the upper compressor case of the LM2500 gas turbine engine. This fixture is essential during major maintenance, inspection, or overhaul activities where access to the engine’s internal compressor components is required.

The fixture allows maintenance teams to lift and securely hold the heavy upper compressor case in a hinged, open position. This provides stable and safe access to the compressor rotor and other internal parts, ensuring technicians can carry out detailed inspections or repairs without risking damage to sensitive components.

Made from strong, durable materials, the fixture set is built to support the heavy upper compressor case while keeping everything properly aligned. Its reliable locking and hinge system holds the case securely in place, helping protect the gas turbine.

Compatible with both OEM and MRO procedures, this fixture supports efficient, repeatable maintenance practices and helps reduce overall engine downtime. Whether used in the field or in a dedicated maintenance facility, the LM2500 Hinge Fixture is a critical tool for safe and effective servicing of the LM2500 engine’s compressor section.

The LM2500+G4 is an advanced variant of the LM2500+ aeroderivative gas turbine, designed to provide increased output and thermal efficiency through a set of targeted design upgrades. It retains the core architecture of the LM2500+ but introduces changes to the flow path that increase overall engine performance.

The primary difference between the LM2500+G4 and the LM2500+ is the increased flow capacity in the high-pressure (HP) compressor, HP turbine, and low-pressure turbine. These modifications raise the overall pressure ratio from 23.6 to 24.2, resulting in higher thermal efficiency and greater mass flow. The design changes are relatively limited, focusing mainly on minor geometry adjustments to blades and vanes to accommodate the increased flow.

In the high-pressure turbine, the G4 version includes improved blade cooling and upgraded materials. These changes enable the turbine to handle higher temperatures, contributing to both improved performance and component durability. To maintain proper rotor thrust balance with the updated flow path, the effective area of the compressor discharge pressure seal was also adjusted.

In terms of operational performance, the LM2500+G4 offers measurable improvements over the LM2500+ across a variety of ambient conditions. For example, it delivers approximately 11% more power in cold conditions and 12% more in hot conditions (running data to -50 deg F and start data to –40 deg F). In combined-cycle mode, the G4 variant is expected to provide a power increase of 8.5% and a heat rate improvement of 0.75% compared to the LM2500+.

The LM2500+G4 supports two power turbine configurations:

• A six-stage, low-speed power turbine, typically used for power generation applications with a nominal speed of 3600 rpm.
• A two-stage High-Speed Power Turbine (HSPT), used for mechanical drive applications, designed for a nominal speed of 6100 rpm, with an operating range from 3050 to 6400 rpm.

Both configurations support operation over a cubic load curve, which allows the turbine to match power output with varying mechanical loads — a feature especially useful in pipeline compression and similar variable-load industrial applications.

The LM2500 Wrench – Horizontal/Vertical HPT Coupling Nut is a specialized maintenance tool designed for the LM2500 gas turbine engine. This wrench is used to install and remove the High Pressure Turbine (HPT) coupling nut, a critical component that secures the HPT rotor to the turbine shaft.

Removing and installing the coupling nut is necessary during major maintenance activities like rotor inspections, repairs, or when replacing key turbine components. Proper removal allows technicians to safely separate the rotor from the shaft, while correct installation ensures the rotor is securely fastened for reliable engine operation.

What makes this wrench stand out is its ability to work with both horizontal and vertical engine positions. This means technicians can use it easily no matter how the engine is set up, making maintenance simpler and more flexible.

Built to precise standards and made from tough materials, the wrench ensures the right amount of force is applied when tightening or loosening the coupling nut. This careful control helps protect the engine’s important parts from damage.

By using this wrench, maintenance teams can complete their work faster and with confidence, reducing downtime and keeping the turbine reliable. It’s an essential tool that supports the smooth operation of the LM2500 engine.

The 6″ Butterfly Bleed Air Valve is designed to regulate the flow of compressed bleed air from the compressor section of large gas turbines, such as the LM2500. This valve uses a butterfly-shaped disc permanently attached to a robust shaft, allowing precise control over airflow to reduce pressure and temperature within the turbine system.

With an effective flow area of 19.1 square inches max, this valve accommodates higher volumes of bleed air, making it suitable for turbines with greater airflow requirements. It features a fast response time—less than 320 milliseconds for a full stroke—ensuring timely adjustments to changing operating conditions. The valve’s bearings are engineered for high cycle service, providing durability and reliability even under frequent opening and closing cycles.

The 6″ valve helps protect turbine components by managing thermal loads and maintaining optimal compressor performance, which in turn improves overall turbine efficiency and extends equipment life. It is commonly used in oil and gas applications where maintaining safe, efficient, and reliable turbine operation is critical. This valve also serves as a drop-in replacement in existing turbine systems, requiring no hydraulic or electrical modifications, simplifying installation and reducing downtime.
