With an accuracy of ±3% of flow point and a full-stroke response time of 175 milliseconds, it supports precise adjustments to the fuel-to-air ratio, even under fluctuating load conditions. This level of performance is critical for maintaining turbine efficiency, lowering NOx and CO emissions, and supporting regulatory compliance.

The globe-style design allows for smooth fuel flow control, making it ideal for high-capacity, high-pressure turbine applications, such as those found in the oil and gas industry. Built to withstand extreme temperatures and pressures, the valve is available with certifications such as ATEX Zone 1 and 2, PED, UL, and NEC Class 1, ensuring safe operation in hazardous environments.

This metering valve supports modern turbine control systems and is part of a generation of components that prioritize long-term reliability, reduced maintenance needs, and consistent field performance.

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.

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 LM2500 DLE Gas Turbine is an advanced power generation unit designed to deliver high efficiency while significantly reducing emissions. Utilizing cutting-edge Dry Low Emissions (DLE) technology, it precisely controls fuel and air mixing to minimize nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions.

The LM2500 DLE utilizes a single-rotor gas generator with a 16-stage compressor and a two-stage high-pressure turbine, coupled with cutting-edge DLE combustion technology to reduce nitrogen oxide emissions. It supports dual-fuel operation on a wide variety of fuels, including natural gas, diesel, aviation fuel, LPG, and even hydrogen blends with concentrations ranging from 5% to 95%. The turbine’s open configuration allows for faster maintenance and quicker engine replacement, minimizing downtime.

Its key benefit is utilizing advanced aeroderivative gas turbine technology with dual-fuel Dry Low Emissions (DLE) capability, achieving ultra-low emissions of just 15 ppm NOx on gas fuel, combined with broad fuel flexibility—making it ideal for meeting strict environmental regulations while providing fast, reliable power for dynamic grid demands.

The Single Annular Combustor (SAC) version of the LM2500+G4 is designed for oil and gas applications that prioritize consistent performance, fuel flexibility, and emissions control—such as LNG facilities, gas processing plants, and pipeline compression, both onshore and offshore.

What makes the SAC version different is its simpler combustor design compared to dual annular or premix types. The SAC uses a through-flow, venturi swirler to ensure an even temperature profile at the turbine inlet, helping extend hot section life. It features individually replaceable fuel nozzles, a durable machined-ring liner, and a thermal barrier coating for better resistance to high temperatures and corrosion. This design supports both dry operation (with higher emissions) and water or steam injection to reduce NOx when needed—making it adaptable to site-specific emission regulations.

The LM2500+G4 SAC builds on the proven LM2500+ design, with approximately 10% more power. This gain comes from increased airflow, improved internal cooling, and material upgrades—while keeping the same number of compressor and turbine stages. The 17-stage high-pressure axial compressor and the basic engine layout remain unchanged, making it easy to maintain and service.

The engine can run on a wide range of liquid and gas fuels, allowing flexibility in remote or supply-constrained locations. It achieves up to 40% thermal efficiency in simple cycle mode. Water-injected operation enables NOx emissions as low as 25 ppm (gas) and 42 ppm (liquid).

In short, the LM2500+G4 SAC is well-suited for high-power mechanical drive and power generation in harsh or remote oil and gas environments, offering a balance of power output, fuel versatility, and emissions control.
