The T5.4 thermocouple is a temperature-sensing probe used in LM2500 gas turbines to measure exhaust gas temperature (EGT). The label T5.4 refers to its specific position in the turbine\'s exhaust thermocouple array—zone T5 (turbine exhaust), sensor 4. These sensors are part of a system that monitors thermal conditions at multiple points in the exhaust stream.

This thermocouple operates in high-temperature environments, withstanding continuous exposure up to approximately 1100°C. It is built to maintain accuracy and reliability under the thermal stress and vibration typical in gas turbine applications.

T5.4 thermocouples are often used with flexible

harness systems. This allows operators to replace individual probes without removing the entire harness, improving maintenance efficiency and reducing downtime.

By providing real-time exhaust temperature data, the T5.4 thermocouple supports engine control, performance optimization, and safety monitoring in industrial gas turbine operations.

The Blowoff Valve is a 3-inch sleeve-style gas blowoff valve designed for use in aero-derivative industrial gas turbines. Its primary function is to isolate gas fuel during turbine shutdowns or emergency events, helping prevent overspeed conditions and damage caused by uncontrolled combustion.

This valve features a solenoid-pilot actuation system and operates with either 24 VDC or 95–140 VDC electrical input. It is designed with a 3-inch outlet flange and built entirely from stainless steel materials to ensure durability and compliance with NACE standards for sour gas environments.

Performance characteristics include a 110 millisecond full-stroke opening time and 1 second full-stroke closing time, meeting the rapid response requirements necessary for turbine protection. The valve is capable of withstanding heat soak temperatures up to 400°F, allowing it to function reliably in high-temperature turbine enclosures.

For safety in hazardous environments, the blowoff valve is certified to CE-ATEX Group IIA, Category 3, Zone 2, T3, supporting its use in oil and gas facilities with potentially explosive atmospheres.

This valve is often used in redundant pairs to provide dual isolation capability, increasing system reliability. Its application is critical to turbine safety systems, ensuring that fuel flow can be quickly and reliably shut off when required.

The Gas Check Valve is a unidirectional valve used in LM2500 gas turbine systems to prevent the reverse flow of combustion gases into critical fuel and oil lines. Its primary function is to maintain the correct flow direction, ensuring that gases only travel toward the combustion chamber and not back into upstream components, where reverse flow could cause damage, safety risks, or system inefficiencies.

This check valve is engineered to operate under the high-pressure and high-temperature conditions typical of industrial gas turbine environments. It serves as a passive safety component, requiring no external power to function, and contributes to the overall reliability and integrity of the turbine system.

Commonly found in aero-derivative gas turbines used in oil and gas applications, the check valve is essential for maintaining proper system performance. Its inclusion in the turbine’s gas path helps ensure safe operation by minimizing the risk of combustion gas contamination in auxiliary systems.
