Dedicated Compressor Controllers or Process Automation Systems with SurgeGard

Better operational efficiency and increased safety through Advanced Surge Control and Incipient Surge Protection/Override is important to profitability and uptime, in order to meet your customers' expectations and stay ahead of the competition in centrifugal/axial compressor operation. SurgeGard enables a wider compressor operation window, energy savings and trip prevention.

By merging ICS Triplex or PAS/PLC-based anti-surge controls with SurgeGard, the patented incipient surge monitoring and override control signal conditioner from ICS Triplex, you can, not only enhance established compressor control, but offer exciting new benefits by combining traditional head-based surge control with incipient surge detection and control.

SurgeGard, an incipient surge condition module monitors SurgeGard includes special signal filtering and signal oscillations of flow, pressure or current (if compressor is output conditioning to distinguish between impending surge and other unusual operating conditions. motor driven) that occur as a precursor to surge. The incipient surge detection is independent of the compressor performance map. High-Speed and Fault-Tolerant Systems with SurgeGard

The ICS Triplex Turbomachinery Control Commitment

For advanced anti-surge systems it is very important to use incipient surge detection/override since it provides not only a method of ensuring that incipient or surgespike conditions are detected but it also increases the speed of response of the anti-surge control loop by eliminating internal surge spike function and by facilitating back-up control requirements. With external incipient surge & surge spike conditioning SurgeGard - anti surge control systems (dedicated or PAS/PLC-type) can provide very high anti-surge response and operation efficiency.

Today's competitive environment demands that you get the maximum out of your rotating equipment. This calls for a planned program of automation which involves the reduction of energy consumption, the minimisation of machine maintenance and the optimisation of production. ICS Triplex is committed to providing solutions to successfully automate your turbomachinery. We have the products and system personnel to give you the competitive edge you need.
