The LM2500+ DLE gas turbine is designed to provide reliable, efficient while meeting strict environmental rules. Ideal for power plants where emissions limits and water availability are critical concerns, the LM2500+ DLE provides clean, flexible, and high-performance power generation.

Using advanced Dry Low Emissions (DLE) technology, it reduces nitrogen oxide (NOx) and carbon monoxide (CO) emissions without requiring water or steam injection. This makes it especially valuable for facilities aiming to minimize environmental impact and avoid the operational complexity and maintenance costs associated with water-based emissions control systems.

The turbine’s ability to maintain NOx emissions below 25 ppm on natural gas—and as low as 15 ppm under certain conditions—ensures compliance with tough air quality standards.

With a power output exceeding 31 megawatts and thermal efficiency above 40%, the LM2500+ DLE suits a broad range of applications, from utility-scale electricity generation to industrial cogeneration and offshore power. Its fast start capability and robust cycling performance enable it to respond quickly to fluctuating grid demands, making it an excellent partner for integrating renewable energy sources.

Fuel flexibility extends the LM2500+ DLE’s usability across different operational contexts. It runs smoothly on natural gas, diesel, aviation fuels, and even hydrogen blends—offering operators confidence and versatility regardless of fuel availability or market conditions.

Maintenance is simplified thanks to the turbine’s modular design, allowing rapid access and part replacement. This reduces downtime and keeps plants running efficiently, enhancing overall productivity.

Combining power, efficiency, emissions control, and fuel flexibility, the LM2500+ DLE supports effective and compliant power generation in a variety of operational settings.

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.
