ProTech®-GII Overspeed Protection Device

Woodward’s ProTech®-GII is an overspeed safety device designed to safely shut down steam, gas, and hydro turbines upon sensing an overspeed or over acceleration event. This device accurately monitors turbine rotor speed and acceleration via active or passive MPUs (magnetic pickups) and issues a shutdown command to the turbine’s trip valve(s) or corresponding trip system.

The ProTech-GII is IEC61508 SIL-3 Certified and API670 & API612 Compliant.
