The LM2500 SAC Gas Turbine features a Single Annular Combustor (SAC) system—a type of combustion chamber where fuel and air are mixed and burned in a single, annular-shaped chamber. This design allows for efficient combustion with lower emissions and better fuel-air mixing. The turbine also supports dual-fuel capabilities, operating on both gas and diesel, offering greater flexibility in environments where fuel availability may vary.

Its open configuration is designed for accessibility, making maintenance tasks faster and more straightforward. This also allows for quicker engine removal or replacement, helping reduce downtime during service operations.

The LM2500 SAC is widely used across multiple industries, including electrical power generation, mechanical drive systems, and marine propulsion, due to its reliability, fuel flexibility, and proven performance in demanding conditions.

The 4″ butterfly bleed air valve plays a crucial role in controlling the flow of compressed air, called bleed air, from the compressor section of a gas turbine. This airflow regulation helps maintain safe and efficient turbine operation by managing pressure and protecting internal components.

This valve is built with a strong bearing shaft and specially designed bearings that handle frequent cycles, ensuring a longer service life and less maintenance. It includes a fail-safe feature that automatically opens the valve if a problem occurs, protecting the turbine from damage. With a quick response time—fully opening or closing in less than 320 milliseconds—it reacts fast to changing engine conditions. The valve’s electric components are also better insulated from heat, improving reliability even in harsh environments.

What makes the 4″ valve stand out is its ideal size and performance. It offers greater airflow than smaller valves, yet remains compact and easier to fit than larger ones, making it perfect for medium-duty applications where space and precise control are important.

Importantly, this valve is designed as a direct, plug-and-play replacement for existing models. It requires no changes to the hydraulic or electrical systems, allowing for quick upgrades without downtime. This seamless fit and reliable operation help ensure your gas turbine runs smoothly and efficiently, reducing costs and increasing uptime.

The LM2500+G4 SAC 50Hz Combined Cycle 2x1 is a high-performance gas turbine system designed for large-scale, high-efficiency power generation, particularly suited to the needs of oil and gas operations. This configuration links two LM2500+G4 gas turbines with a single steam turbine in a combined cycle layout—capturing waste heat from the gas turbines to produce steam and generate additional power. This approach significantly improves overall thermal efficiency while maintaining operational flexibility.

The Single Annular Combustor (SAC) with optional water injection helps the system meet emissions rules while keeping combustion stable and efficient. The LM2500+G4 improves on the previous +G4 model by increasing airflow, using better materials, and adding improved cooling. This allows it to produce about 10% more power without reducing the lifespan of critical hot parts. It can be equipped with either a two-stage or six-stage power turbine to fit different needs. Even with the higher power output, the +G4 keeps its modular, two-spool design, which makes maintenance easier and ensures reliable performance in many environments.

In the 2x1 configuration, the system delivers approximately 41% more power than a single gas turbine unit. The use of combined cycle technology ensures better fuel utilization, helping to reduce overall emissions and lower lifecycle operating costs.

The LM2500+G4 SAC 50Hz Combined Cycle 2x1 offers higher power, improved efficiency, and a flexible design, making it well-suited for large-scale oil and gas operations that demand reliable and efficient power generation. Its “50Hz” designation means the turbine is specifically optimized to supply electricity to grids operating at 50 cycles per second, ensuring seamless integration with regional power systems.

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.

The LM2500+ DLE 50Hz Combined Cycle 2x1 system combines two LM2500+ dry low emissions gas turbines, each coupled with a Heat Recovery Steam Generator (HRSG), to power a single steam turbine. This high-efficiency configuration is engineered to meet larger capacity needs, delivering reliable, low-emission power with rapid startup capability.

At the core of this system is the LM2500+, an uprated version of the LM2500, featuring a 17-stage compressor. The addition of a forward-stage blisk increases airflow by approximately 20% at full power. This enhancement boosts the compressor pressure ratio from 18:1 to 23.1:1, contributing to higher overall efficiency and output.

Downstream of the compressor, the engine incorporates a fully annular combustor with externally mounted fuel nozzles, a two-stage air-cooled high-pressure turbine driving the compressor and gearbox, and a six-stage low-pressure power turbine aerodynamically coupled to extract energy from the high-energy exhaust flow. To accommodate the increased output, key design changes were made to the power turbine, including aerodynamic blade optimizations and rotor strengthening.

The Dry Low Emissions (DLE) system plays a crucial role in minimizing environmental impact. Its triple annular combustor lowers flame temperature, reducing NOx and CO emissions without water or steam injection—improving both thermal efficiency and maintainability.

Together, this 2x1 configuration offers a scalable solution for utility and industrial operators seeking clean, efficient, and dependable power generation at higher capacities.

The 2″ Gas Metering Valve is designed to precisely control the flow of gas fuel in aero-derivative gas turbines, including the LM2500. By adjusting fuel delivery based on operating conditions, it maintains the optimal fuel-to-air ratio essential for safe, efficient, and reliable turbine operation.

Fuel metering valves act as the throttle control for gas turbines. Since turbines generate power by burning fuel mixed with compressed air, accurate regulation of this mixture directly impacts power output, efficiency, and emissions such as nitrogen oxides (NOx) and carbon monoxide (CO).

This valve delivers exceptional accuracy within ±1% of the flow point, ensuring consistent fuel delivery and optimal combustion. It is built to perform reliably in demanding environments and meets safety standards including ATEX, PED, and UL, certifying it for use in hazardous and extreme conditions.

The fuel metering valve is a two-inch right-angle style valve commonly used on aero-derivative turbines. It integrates easily into existing systems without requiring hydraulic or electrical changes.
