The QuickTrip’s robust design (corrosion resistant materials, three independent moving rotary valves, and
self-cleaning port design) makes it optimal for challenging applications where dirty or contaminated oil
may be present.
The QuickTrip is certified for use in IEC61508 based turbine safety systems, and when paired with the
Woodward ProTechTPS, can be applied into systems that require a “Safety Integrity Level – 3” rating or below.
Designed for use in new or retrofit turbine packages, the QuickTrip’s compact package size allows it to be
located near the turbine and trip & throttle valve, minimizing trip header piping and related system delays.
Each trip leg includes bright position indication LEDs (run & trip), allowing turbine operators to quickly
verify system status locally near the turbine, as well as integrated limit switches for safety system and
plant DCS status and health validation.
The QuickTrip is an IEC61508 safety certified electro-hydraulic trip block assembly designed for use in
gas or steam turbine shutdown systems for quick and reliable dumping of the turbine’s trip oil header.
This trip block assembly’s 2-out of-3 voting design provides users with a high level of system reliability as
well as compliance with industry standards like API-670. API-612. and API-611.
This trip block assembly is housed in a fully integrated package, which includes three patented dirt
tolerant rotary trip valves. These valves are connected to provide redundant two-out-of-three based voting
to ensure that a failure of any one component (electronics module, valve, wiring, connector, etc.) does not
result in a nuisance trip condition. The QuickTrip’s modular design also allows users to replace critical
components (electrical module, solenoid, wiring, etc.) while the turbine is operating on-line.
