Special Conditions for Safe Use

This Equipment is Suitable for use in Class I, Division 2, Groups A, B, C, D or
Non Hazardous Locations Only.

This equipment is suitable for use in European Zone 2, Group IIC environments
or Non Hazardous Locations Only.

Wiring must be in accordance with North American Class I, Division 2, or
European Zone 2, Category 3 wiring methods as applicable, and in accordance
with the authority having jurisdiction.

A fixed wiring installation is required and a switch or circuit breaker shall be
included in the building installation that is in close proximity to the equipment and

device for the equipment. The switch or circuit breaker shall not interrupt the
protective earth conductor.

Protective Earth Grounding is required by the input PE terminal.

Field wiring must be rated at least 85 C for operating ambient temperatures
expected to exceed 50 C.

For European ATEX compliance on panel mount models, this equipment must be
installed in an area providing adequate protection against the entry of dust or
water. A minimum ingress protection rating of IP54 is required for the enclosure.

Personnel must discharge their electrostatic build up to the cabinet ground point
or use an ESD strap prior to touching the ProTech
interior surfaces if the

engine/turbine is operational. The unit is designed to have one of three modules
be removed during operation; however ESD to the remaining operational
modules may cause signal deviations. Signal deviations due to direct ESD may
be large enough to result in the operational module to trip, shutting down the
engine since two modules are in a tripped mode. Signal deviations were noted
when ESD testing was done to the Speed pins, the IRIG-B pins, Service Port
pins, and RS-232/RS-485 Modbus communications port pins.

Electrostatic Discharge Awareness

All electronic equipment is static-sensitive, some components more than others.
To protect these components from static damage, you must take special
precautions to minimize or eliminate electrostatic discharges.

Follow these precautions when working with or near the control.

1. Before doing maintenance on the electronic control, discharge the static
electricity on your body to ground by touching and holding a grounded metal
object (pipes, cabinets, equipment, etc.).

2. Avoid the build-up of static electricity on your body by not wearing clothing
made of synthetic materials. Wear cotton or cotton-blend materials as much
as possible because these do not store static electric charges as much as
synthetics.

3. Keep plastic, vinyl, and Styrofoam materials (such as plastic or Styrofoam
cups, cup holders, cigarette packages, cellophane wrappers, vinyl books or
folders, plastic bottles, and plastic ash trays) away from the control, the
modules, and the work area as much as possible.

4. Do not remove the printed circuit board (PCB) from the control cabinet
unless absolutely necessary. If you must remove the PCB from the control
cabinet, follow these precautions:

Do not touch any part of the PCB except the edges.

Do not touch the electrical conductors, the connectors, or the
components with conductive devices or with your hands.

When replacing a PCB, keep the new PCB in the plastic antistatic
protective bag it comes in until you are ready to install it. Immediately
after removing the old PCB from the control cabinet, place it in the
antistatic protective bag.

To prevent damage to electronic components caused by improper
handling, read and observe the precautions in Woodward manual
82715, Guide for Handling and Protection of Electronic Controls,
Printed Circuit Boards, and Modules.

Woodward 1
Chapter 1.
General Information

Description

The ProTech-GII is a device designed to safely shutdown steam, gas and hydro
turbines, as well as motors, compressors, reciprocating engines and other
equipment, upon sensing an overspeed or over-acceleration event.

The ProTech-GII consists of three independent modules whose trip outputs are
either independent or voted in a 2-out-of-3 configuration. The ProTech-GII
includes Overspeed/Overacceleration, Alarm, and Trip log functions with time-
stamping. Indication that a test was active at the time of the event is provided on
all logs and first-out indications are provided for Trip logs.

The ProTech-GII provides various pre-defined test features including automated
periodic tests.

There are several ways to interface with the ProTech-GII. The front panel allows
the user to view current values, and to perform configuration and test functions.
All of the features and most of the information available from the front panel are
also accessible via the Modbus
* interface. Finally, the Programming and

Configuration Tool (PCT) is software that is run on a PC to download log files
and manage settings files.
*Modbus is a trademark of Schneider Automation Inc.

This product is designed for critical applications and when installed correctly
meets API-670, API-612, API-611, and IEC61508 (SIL-3) standards.

Note that the trip cycle time feature is not available on the
ProTech-GII. If this function is desired, to determine the time between
when a trip command is issued and the feedback from the system
that the equipment has actually been tripped, a ProTechTPS or

Applications

The ProTech-GII is designed to be applied as an overspeed device for any size
steam, gas, or hydro turbine, reciprocating engine, or plant process equipment.
The device's fast (12 millisecond) response time, 0.5 to 32 000 rpm speed range,
and integrated overspeed and acceleration detection/protection functionality,
make it ideal for application on critical low-speed or high-speed rotating motors,
compressors, turbines or engines. This device accepts one speed (MPU or
PROX) input per module (3 total). In addition to the trip relay outputs, each
ProTech-GII module provides 1 relay output that is dedicated to an alarm
function (3 total) and 1 analog speed output (3 total).

The ProTech-GII utilizes a triple modular redundant architecture and 2-out-of-3
voting logic to accurately determine unsafe conditions and ensure that no single-
point failure will affect system reliability or availability. With this design, failures in
overspeed system components (switches, transducers, modules) are detected,
annunciated, and allowed to be repaired or replaced while the monitored system
continues to operate on-line. The ProTech-GII is designed for critical applications
where both personnel safety and unit availability (operation run time) is a concern
or necessity.

The ProTech-GII is certified as an IEC61508 SIL-3 (Safety Integrity Level 3)
safety device and can be applied as a stand-alone IEC61508-based device or
within an IEC61511-based plant safety system.

Enclosures

Module identification is always from left to right, with module A on
the left, module B in the center, and module C on the right. This
applies to either the bulkhead-mount versions with the front cover
open, or the panel-mount versions with the back cover removed.

Depending on the model purchased, the ProTech-GII has either a bulkhead-
mounted or a panel-mounted enclosure package.

The bulkhead-mounted enclosure models are designed to be mounted on a wall
or skid next to the turbine or equipment and are rated for IP56-based
environments. With these models, field wiring access is through gland plates
located on the bottom of the enclosure. Figures 2-1, 2-2, and 2-3 display the
bulkhead-mounted ProTech-GII models physical layout and mounting pattern.

The ProTech-GII panel-mounted enclosure models are designed for installation
in a control room panel or cabinet and, by itself, cannot be bulkhead-mounted.
Once installed within an IP56 rated panel or cabinet, the ProTech-GII panel-
mounted models are rated for IP56-based environments. A gasket is attached to
the rear side of the packages bezel to properly seal the ProTech-GII controls
face-plate and around the mounting studs to a panel. With these models, field
wiring access is located on the ProTech-GII controls back side, and a back cover
is included to protect wiring terminals after installation. Figures 2-4 and 2-5
display the Panel-Mount ProTech-GII models layout and mounting pattern.

Power Supply Requirements

Each ProTech-GII system consists of three separate internal modules (A, B, C),
and each of these three modules accept two input power sources. Depending on
the ProTech-GII model purchased, the internal modules will accept either two
high voltage (HV) input power sources or one HV input power source and one
low voltage (LV) input power source. For reliability purposes, each ProTech-GII
module will function normally with power sourced to either or both power supply
inputs.

Power Supply Specifications

Number of Inputs
2. Input range depends on model (see following tables):

Wiring Constraints
Each power supply input must be provided with its own
breaker. This is to facilitate both on-line-removal of a
module, and also to protect other power supplies from
tripping while connected to a common input power
circuit.

Table 2-2 Relay Output Power Supply Specifications

Each ProTech-GII module will function normally with power sourced to both or
either power supply input independently, however Woodward recommends that
both input power sources be used to improve system availability. Please refer to
Table 1-1 for available ProTech-GII models.

Since the ProTech-GII is designed to detect a failure of either power
supply input, a continuous Power Supply Fault Alarm will be
issued if power-sources are not connect for both power supply
inputs.

Each ProTech-GII module requires a power source capable of a certain output
voltage and current. In most cases, this power rating is stated in Volt-Amps (VA).
The maximum VA of a source can be calculated by taking the rated output
voltage times the maximum output current at that voltage. This value should be
greater than or equal to the VA requirement listed.

Each power source must be provided with an external disconnecting
means that is identifiable to the specific power supply (A, B, or C).


18 Woodward

A PE (Protective Earth) ground wire for each of the high voltage
power supplies must be connected to PE ground. The PE ground
connection wire must originate and be connected to PE at the power
source. The PE ground wire must follow the power wires to the
applicable power input connector PE Ground pin, so that each HV
input has a PE ground. The PE ground wire gauge must be capable
of handling the same current as the individual power wiring.

A PE (Protective Earth) ground wire for the enclosure must be
provided and connected to PE Ground. At least one of the
enclosures PE labeled connection points must have a wire going
from the enclosure to a building PE ground point. This wire must be
of sufficient gauge to handle the rated current of all the interposing
relay wires or 1.5 mm

Each speed input is designed to operate from its own speed probe.
Do not connect a speed probe to more than one input. This will
compromise the ability of the ProTech-GII to sense open wire
(passive mode only) and interfere with the minimum amplitude
sensitivity and accuracy.

When using open collector probes, verify that the signal is being
read properly at higher frequencies (>10 kHz). Long cable lengths
can significantly reduce the signal strength at higher frequencies. In
this case, add an external pull-up resistor of approximately 2 k
(0.25 W) from terminals 70 to 69 and verify that the signal is read
properly by the ProTech-GII.

Shielded cable is required when connecting to the speed input.

Shielded Wiring

All shielded cable must be twisted conductor pairs with either a foil or a braided
shield. A braided shield is preferred and highly recommended. All analog and
communication signal lines should be shielded to prevent picking up stray signals
from adjacent equipment. Connect the shields as shown in the control wiring
diagram (Figure 2-7). Wire exposed beyond the shield must not exceed 50 mm
(2 inches). The shield termination should be done with the shield by opening the
braid and pulling the wires through, not with an added wire. If a wire is used it
must be the largest gauge accepted by the shield lug terminal. The other end of
the shield must be left open or grounded through a capacitor and insulated from
any other conductor. Do not run shielded signal wires with other wires carrying
large currents or high voltages. See Woodward manual 50532, EMI Control in
Electronic Governing Systems, for more information.

Installations with severe electromagnetic interference (EMI) may require relay
and discrete input wiring to be shielded, conduits and/or double shielded wire
may be needed, or other precautions may have to be taken. These additional
precautions may be implemented in any installation. Contact Woodward for more
information.

Control Wiring Guidelines

Electrical Connections

EXPLOSION HAZARDDo not connect or disconnect while circuit is
live unless area is known to be non-hazardous.

Plug-in screw-type terminal blocks are used to connect field wiring to each
ProTech-GII module and to the trip (interposing) relay contacts.

The size of the field wiring to the ProTech system should be between 1.5 and 6
mm (16 and 10 AWG) for power supply wiring and between 0.3 and 4 mm (22
and 12 AWG) for all other I/O wiring. Wires for the all the pluggable I/O terminal
blocks should be stripped at 8 mm (0.3 inch). Torque and screwdriver
requirements are listed below.

The screw lug terminal blocks are designed to flatten stranded wire.
Do not tin (solder) the wires strands that terminate at the ProTech
Terminal Blocks. If the wire strands are soldered together, the solder
will cold flow and shrink over time causing the connection to become
intermittent or disconnected.

Woodward recommends the following for ProTech-GII:
Stranded bare copper wire (unless gaseous Sulfur
compounds are present) at the wire ends
Stranded copper wire with individually tin plated strands at
the wire ends
Hollow ferrules at the wire ends
Use single wire per terminal. There are enough terminals
provided for all I/O wiring

Torque range for screws of Screw
Connection Terminal Blocks:
0.220.25 Nm (1.952.21 lb-in).

Screwdriver blade:
0.4 X 2.5 mm (0.016 X 0.10 inch)
Screwdriver available as
Woodward PN 8992-005
Figure 2-6. Screw Connection Terminal Block

The ProTech-GII controls terminal blocks are designed to be removed by hand.

With circuit power and trip (interposing) relay controlled power disconnected, all
terminal blocks can be removed, one at a time by unscrewing their terminal-
locking screws and pulling them out of their sockets by hand.

Woodward 23

When removing a terminal block, never pull on the wires connected
to the terminal block.

Field wiring access for bulkhead mounted models is through gland plates located on
the bottom of the enclosure. These gland plates allow users to bore multiple and
different sized access holes for conduit entry, as required. Refer to Figure
2-3 for gland plate location and size. For EMI (electromagnetic interference) reasons,
Woodward recommends that all low-voltage field wiring be separated from all high-
voltage field wiring by using separate conduit and conduit entries into the ProTech-
GII enclosure. Woodward also recommends that power wiring be segregated in the
same manner, however LV and HV input power may be routed together.

Field wiring access for panel-mounted models is located on the back of the ProTech-
GII enclosure. To allow proper installation of the units back cover plate, Woodward
recommends that all field wiring be routed from the bottom of the package. The units
back cover must be installed. Refer to Figure 2-5 for field wiring access information.
For EMI (electromagnetic interference) reasons, Woodward recommends that all
low-voltage field wiring be separated from all high-voltage field wiring where possible.
Woodward also recommends that power wiring be segregated in the same manner,
however LV and HV input power may be routed together.

HIGH VOLTAGEWhen wiring to interposing relays, be sure to wire
both contacts with the same polarity. Failure to do so will create a
potential shock hazard, which could cause injury or death.

All input and output wiring must be in accordance with Class I
Division 2 wiring methods, and in accordance with the authority
having jurisdiction.

All peripheral equipment must be suitable for the location in which it
is being used.

Figures 2-8 and 2-9 show the control wiring diagrams for the ProTech-GII
system. Refer to Figure 2-10 for proper routing and stress relief of field wiring
entering the ProTech-GII system. Wire tie-wrap fasteners are provided on each
module to assist with I/O wire routing and installation.

When wiring to each ProTech module, in order to allow hot
replacement of a module in the event of a failure, it is important to
make connections such that any single modules terminal blocks and
power supplies can be completely disconnected without affecting the
rest of the system.

Speed Sensor Inputs

To sense speed, each ProTech-GII module (A, B, C) accepts a signal from a
speed sensor mounted on a gear connected to the turbine rotor or engine
crankshaft. Speed sensors may be any of the following:
Passive magnetic pickup unit (MPU)
Active proximity probe
Eddy current probe

A passive MPU provides a frequency output signal corresponding to turbine or
equipment speed by sensing the movement of a gears teeth past the MPUs
pole piece. The closer the MPUs pole piece is to a gears teeth and the faster
the gear turns, the higher a passive MPUs output amplitude will be (speed signal
amplitude increases with speed increase or distance decrease). The ProTech-GII
must sense an MPU voltage of 0.25 to 35 Vrms for proper operation. With the
proper MPU, gear size, and MPU-to-gear clearance, speed measurement can
range from 100 to 32 000 Hz. Standard MPU clearance is recommended to be
0.25 to 1.02 mm (0.010 to 0.040 inch) from tooth face to pole piece. For
information on selecting the correct MPU or gear size please refer to Woodward
manual 82510. Refer to Figure 2-11a of this manual for wiring information.

Proximity and eddy-current probes may be used to sense very low speeds to
high speeds (0.5 to 25 000 Hz). The speed probe input voltage must be between
16 and 28 Vdc and output signal be between 16 and 28 V peak-to-peak for
proper speed detection. The voltage for the speed probes must be from the
provided voltage port or have its common referenced (connected) to the provided
common pin for proper operation. See Figures 2-11b and 2-11c for proximity and
eddy-current probe wiring schematics.

An application may use the same or different types of speed probes (MPU,
proximity, eddy-current), between the three different inputs depending on the
specific applications requirements.

Woodward does NOT recommend that gears mounted on an auxiliary
shaft that is coupled to the turbine rotor be used to sense turbine
speed. Auxiliary shafts tend to turn slower than the turbine rotor
(reducing speed-sensing resolution) and have coupling gear back-
lash, resulting in less than optimal speed sensing. For safety
purposes, Woodward also does NOT recommend that the speed
sensing device sense speed from a gear coupled to a generator or
the mechanical drive side of a systems rotor coupling.

Dedicated Discrete Inputs

Each ProTech-GII module (A, B, C) accepts three dedicated discrete inputs. All
discrete inputs accept dry contacts. Contact wetting voltage is available through
terminals 1, 3, and 5 but an external +24 Vdc source can be used. Refer to
Figure 2-12 for wiring information. In general, a contact input signal must change
state for a minimum of 10 milliseconds for a ProTech-GII module to sense and
register a change in state. The Dedicated Discrete Inputs are Start, Reset and
Speed-Fail-Override. Refer to Chapter 3 (Functionality) of this manual for
information on each discrete inputs functionality.

Figure 2-12a. Example Standard Discrete Input Wiring (Internal Power Option)

Figure 2-12b. Example Standard Discrete Input Wiring (External Power Option)

Analog Output

One programmable 420 mA analog output per module (A, B, C) is available to
drive a readout meter or interface with other controllers or plant DCS (distributed
control systems). This output is designed to drive into an impedance between 0
and 500 . Twisted shielded pair wiring must be used. Refer to Chapter 3

Relay Outputs

Two basic ProTech-GII model variations are available depending on the required
trip system architecture: the Independent Trip Relay model and the Voted Trip
Relay model. Either version also has 3 programmable Relay Outputs per
module. Refer to Figure 2-16a for the general locations for Trip Relay Output
wiring in the two models.

Optionally all ProTech-GII models can be configured for de-energize-
to-trip or energize-to-trip functionality based on the application
action required. However, de-energize to trip is a safer way to fail so
that a total power loss to the control will trip a shut down.

programmable relay output in an application.

Relay Outputs (Independent Trip Relay)

Each ProTech-GII Independent Trip Relay model has three independent
modules (A, B, C), and each of these modules has three solid-state relay
outputs. Each of the three solid-state relays have normally-open type contacts
and are rated for 24 Vdc @ 1 A. Two of these relay outputs are dedicated as
redundant trip signal outputs, and the third is the Alarm relay. The Independent
Trip Relay ProTech-GII models are designed so the each set of trip relays drive
one of three external independent trip solenoids, typically used in 2-o-o-3 voted
trip block assemblies. Refer to Figure 2-16a for relay terminal location and Figure
2-14b or 2-14c for wiring information.

Relay Outputs (Voted Trip Relay)

Each Voted Trip Relay ProTech-GII model has three independent modules (A,
B, C), and each of these modules has three solid-state relay outputs. Each of the
three solid-state relays have normally-open type contacts and are rated for 24
Vdc @ 1 A. Two of these relay outputs are dedicated as redundant trip signal
outputs, and the output is the alarm relay. Note that, with the Voted Trip Relay
ProTech-GII models, the two solid-state trip relays located on each module (A, B,
C) are not available for use or connection. Each modules trip signal relays are
connected internally to the ProTech-GII in a 2-o-o-3 voted fashion to drive two
redundant Form-C trip relays. These two redundant have normally-open and
normally closed output contacts rated for 220 Vac @ 8 A or 24 Vdc @ 8 A. Refer
to Figure 2-14a for relay terminal location and Figure 2-14d for wiring information.

Figure 2-14d. Example Trip Relay Wiring (Voted Trip Relay Models)

Alarm Relay Output

In both the Independent and Voted Trip Relay versions, each of the three
modules (A, B, C) has an alarm output. The alarm relay output has normally-
open type contacts and is rated for 24 Vdc @ 1 A. Refer to Figure 2-14e or 2-14f
for wiring information.

Figure 2-14e. Example Alarm Relay Wiring (Internal Supply)


34 Woodward

Figure 2-14f. Example Alarm Relay Wiring (External Supply)

Internal Power Supplies for Discrete Signals

One internal 24 V power supply is available within each ProTech-GII module for
driving external relay coils. The power supply utilizes an internal circuit shutdown
to protect the power supply from over-current conditions.

The power supply channel (+24 V_P) is capable of providing 24 Vdc 10% @
500 mA maximum output current, to power external relays. This supply is used
for relay coils driven by the Independent Trip Relay signals and the Alarm Relay.
Independent Trip Relay signal connections can be made through terminals 29
and 30 with terminal 30 as common. Coil Voltage for the Alarm Relay is on
terminals 80, 81, and 82 with terminals 81 and 82 as the commons. Refer to
Figure 2-17 for wiring information.

In the Independent Trip Relay models, if total current draw through
terminals 30 and 80 exceeds 500 mA the power supplys internal
breaker will open. Upon such a condition, all load must be removed
from the specified terminals to allow this breaker to reset.
In Voted Trip Relay models, if the total current draw through
Terminals 80 exceeds 500 mA the power supplys internal breaker
will open. Upon such a condition, all load must be removed from the
specified terminals to allow this breaker to reset.

If additional current capability is needed the Voter and Alarm relay connection
points may be used as controlled switch contact connection points with an
external power supply. An external supply may be used instead of the internal
supply only for the independent trip relays or alarm relay as shown in Figure 2-
14f. The external supply common should be referenced to terminal 80 or 81.

In the Independent Trip Relay models, if an external supply is used
for coil voltage, it must not have a reference connection to the 24 V
EXT supply or Discrete Supply. Referencing input power to
DISCRETE PWR or 24 V EXT causes the internal supplies to respond
more readily to transients on the power bus.

Functionality

The ProTech-GII includes all the functionality of the original ProTech 203
Overspeed Protection system, but adds additional communications, protection
features, and test modes.

Features

Fault Tolerant Design

Each ProTech-GII consists of three independent modules referred to as A, B and
C. Each module accepts one speed input and three dedicated-function discrete
inputs. Each module also has one alarm relay output and one analog output for
the sensed speed output.

The ProTech-GII comes in two basic models the Independent Trip Relay
models and the Voted Trip Relay models. This relates to the trip signal
configuration. The differences between these two models and their application
are discussed in detail in the Product Models section of this chapter. Each of the
three ProTech-GII modules A, B, and C are fully fault isolated from each other so
that faults in one module do not affect other modules. The modules do not share
input or output information but each module is aware of the status of the others.

Normally, each module is configured to operate with identical configuration
settings. Monitoring logic is used to confirm that all modules are running the
same exact configuration as the other modules and will issue an alarm if it
detects that one or more of the modules are not running identical configurations.
Thus if a change to configuration setting is made to one module while the
ProTech-GII is in normal operation and the turbine or equipment is on-line and
operating normally, each module will issue an alarm. Once all configuration
settings are the same again, this alarm can be reset.

In special cases that require a different configuration to be installed in each
module, the Configuration Compare alarm can be disabled.

The ProTech-GII is a SIL-3 (according to IEC-61508) triple modular design that
allows users to replace any of its modules (A, B, C) while the monitored turbine
or equipment is on-line and operating normally. This is also referred to as hot
replacement. Ease of replacement is enhanced by the units backplane plug-
and-operate structure and its module-to-module program copying function.

Configuring Overview

Each ProTech-GII module includes preset overspeed, over-acceleration, alarm
latch, and trip latch functionality and can be custom configured to meet a specific
application through a modules front panel or the provided Programming and
Configuration Tool (PCT).


38 Woodward
A software-based PCT is included with each ProTech-GII that can be loaded
onto a computer, and used to:
Change overspeed and over-acceleration functionality settings
Save configuration settings to a file
Upload configuration settings to each ProTech-GII module
Download configuration settings from a ProTech-GII module
Download and view stored logged files from a ProTech-GII module

Configuration changes are allowed while the PCT is connected (on-line) as long
as the module is in a tripped state. Configuration changes can also be made off-
line (PCT not connected) by editing a settings file that is loaded into the module
later. Normally, each ProTech-GII module is configured to operate the same
exact configuration settings. Program differences between modules are detected
and alarmed.

The overspeed and over-acceleration functionality can be programmed from
either the PCT or a modules front panel. Entry of the correct configuration level
password is required to perform any program changes or download a program
into a module.

Refer to Chapters 9 and 10 of this manual for more information on performing
program changes.

The logic unit requires that it be in the tripped state in order to
change the configuration.

Security

The ProTech-GII utilizes two password levels, a Test Level Password and a
Config Level Password. The same passwords are used by the Programming and
Configuration Tool (PCT) and Front Panel.

The Test Level Password is required to:
Initiate tests
Reset logs (except for the Peak Speed/Acceleration Log)
Change the Test Level Password

The Config Level Password provides access to any function that requires the
Test Level Password. Additionally, the Config Level Password is required to:
Change any program setting
Download configuration settings file into a module using the PCT
Reset the Peak Speed/Acceleration Log.
Change the Config Level Password

Each of these passwords meets NERC (North American Electric Reliability
Corporation) cyber security requirements.

The default password for Test and Config Level is AAAAAA.


Woodward 39
Module-to-Module Communications

An isolated communications bus is used between modules to:
Copy a configuration setting from one module to another module
Compare module configuration settings for differences
Verify the health and state of the other modules before allowing a
module test to be performed
Pass a module test token between modules when performing a
Periodic Overspeed Test routine

Product Models

Two basic ProTech-GII models are available depending on the required system
architecture and related output signal(s).
The ProTech-GII Independent Trip Relay models consist of three
independent modules. Each accepts one speed input and outputs two
redundant trip commands.
The ProTech-GII Voted Trip Relay models consist of three independent
modules. Each accepts one speed input, and the trip output commands are
then voted in a 2-out-of-3 fashion to create the 2-out-of-3 trip output
command from the entire ProTech unit.

Both of these models can be purchased with different mounting options
(bulkhead mount or panel mount) and different input power supply options (two
high-voltage power supply inputs or one high-voltage and one low-voltage power
supply input). Each ProTech-GII model can be configured to function for
energize-to-trip and de-energize-to-trip applications. The de-energize-to-trip
functionality is implemented such that a complete loss of power to the module
results in a trip of that module. The energize-to-trip functionality is implemented
such that a complete loss of power to the module does not result in a trip of that
module.

Optionally all ProTech-GII models can be configured for de-energize-
to-trip or energize-to-trip functionality based on the application
action required. However, de-energize to trip is a safer way to fail so
that a total power loss to the control will trip a shut down.

ProTech-GII with Independent Trip Relay Outputs

ProTech-GII Independent Trip Relay models consist of three independent
modules. Each accepts one speed input and outputs two redundant trip
commands. The trip command outputs are electrically separated, allowing each
module to actuate a separate external relay or trip solenoid. These models are
typically used with special 2-out-of-3 voted trip block assemblies or 2-out-of-3
voted trip string relay logic.

ProTech-GII Voted Trip Relay models consist of three independent modules
that each accept one speed input whose trip output commands are then voted in
a 2-out-of-3 (2oo3) fashion to create the 2oo3 trip output command. Two
redundant Form-C 2oo3 voted relays are used in these models providing four
isolated relay output signals with normally open and normally closed contacts.

Inputs and Outputs

Speed Sensor Inputs

Each module has one speed input which can be programmed to accept a
passive MPU (magnetic pickup unit) or an active speed sensor (proximity probe
signal or an eddy current probe signal).

When configured as an MPU signal input, special MPU open-wire detection
circuitry is used to validate that the MPU is properly connected, and special loss-
of-speed detection logic is used to validate speed sensor functionality during
equipment operation. Depending on the modules program settings, a loss of
speed signal or open-wire detection will result in a trip or alarm condition.

MPU open-wire detection logic and associated trip/alarm action is
only utilized when the speed input is configured a passive probe.

When configured as an MPU signal input, the speed sensor circuitry will sense
MPU signals within the voltage range of 0.2535 Vrms. This level of voltage
sensing enables the module to be compatible with special intrinsically safe MPU
probes that have a maximum output voltage of 0.7 Vp-p.

When configured as an (active) probe input, a 24 V power supply is provided to
power the probe, but an isolated external supply may be used instead, if it is
referenced correctly.

The Number of Gear Teeth and Gear Ratio are configured to convert the
frequency input from the speed probe to the unit speed.

The Number of Gear Teeth and Gear Ratio must match the actual unit
hardware or speed sensing and all association protection and
functionality will not work correctly.


Each ProTech-GII module (A, B, C) accepts three dedicated discrete inputs. The
Dedicated Discrete Inputs are Start, Reset and Speed-Fail-Override.

Start
This contact input is used as part of the Start Logic Speed Fail Timeout Trip
function. When this function is enabled, closing the Start contact will start the
Speed Fail Timeout timer. This is an edge triggered signal and re-selecting Start
will re-start this timer. Refer to the Start Logic section below for additional details.

Reset
This contact is used to clear module trips and alarms.

Speed-Fail-Override
This is used as part of the Start Logic Speed Fail Trip function. When this
function is enabled, closing the Speed-Fail-Override contact overrides the Speed
Fail Trip. This is a level sensitive trigger so the contact must remain closed to
prevent the Speed Fail Trip until speed is greater than the speed fail setpoint.
Refer to the Start Logic section below for additional details.


Woodward 45
Alarm Relay Output

Each module has 1 alarm relay output. This output is a normally open contact.
When an alarm is present the contacts are open.

Analog Output

A single 420 mA output is provided on each module to indicate the speed
sensed by that module. The 420 mA range can be configured to any speed
range desired. The accuracy of the analog output is better than 0.5% of 20 mA
over the temperature range of the product.

Shielded twisted pair cable is required when connecting to the analog outputs.

Overspeed and Over-Acceleration Detection and Trip

Each ProTech-GII includes overspeed and over-acceleration functionality and
can be configured to meet specific application overspeed and over-acceleration
requirements.

The ProTech-GII senses speed and then compares the sensed speed to its
programmed overspeed trip setpoint to detect an overspeed condition and
generate a trip command.

The ProTech-GII derives acceleration from the sensed speed and then compares
this to its programmed over-acceleration trip setpoint to detect an over-
acceleration condition and generate a trip command. The ProTech-GIIs
acceleration detection function can be configured as enabled, disabled, or only
enabled above a certain speed setpoint. The over-acceleration trip range is
configurable from 0 to 25 000 RPM/s.

Peak speed and peak acceleration are tracked and logged for every overspeed
and over-acceleration occurrence. The last 20 occurrences are logged and can
be viewed from a front panel or loaded to a computer via the ProTech-GII
Programming and Configuration Tool (PCT).

Start Logic

The start signal is generated by selecting the START button on the module front
panel or by closing the dedicated Start contact input. The start signal is edge
triggered and re-selecting Start will reset the timer.

The ProTech-GII controls failed speed signal detection logic is used to sense
no/zero speed and issue a trip command. However, before a prime mover is
started and as its speed gear begins to turn, magnetic speed probes output a
zero rpm signal until the speed exceeds the probes minimum frequency. Two
different start logic functions are available to use within the ProTech-GII to
override failed speed signal detection logic and allow the prime mover to be
started. There is also an alarm that can be enabled to indicate any time the
Speed is below the Speed Fail Setpoint.

Speed Fail Trip

If Speed Fail Trip is enabled, the Speed-Fail-Override contact input is used to
override the speed fail trip logic. When the contact is open, the sensed speed
must exceed the Speed Fail Setpoint, otherwise a Speed Fail Trip occurs.

Figure 3-9. Speed Fail Trip Diagram

Speed Fail Timeout Trip

If Speed Fail Timeout Trip is enabled, the sensed speed must exceed the
Speed Fail Setpoint within the Speed Fail Timeout Time after a Start command,
otherwise a Speed Fail Timeout Trip occurs.

The Speed Fail Timeout trip is cleared by the reset function (the trip
and alarm reset function, not the reset input to the timer in the
diagram below), even if speed is still below the Speed Fail Setpoint.

Figure 3-10. Speed Fail Timeout Trip Diagram

Start Example with Speed Fail Timeout Trip
First, any trips or alarms are cleared by issuing a reset command either by
pressing the reset key, momentarily closing the reset contact, or issuing the
Reset command via Modbus.


Woodward 47
When the turbine or equipment is ready to be started, the Speed fail timer is
started by pressing the start key or by momentarily closing the start discrete
input. The timer expires when it reaches the Speed fail timeout value. If speed
does not exceed the Speed fail set point before the timer expires, the unit trips.

If the unit is being restarted after a normal rolldown where there was no trip, the
unit does not require a reset. The Speed fail trip is overridden because the
Speed fail timer is cleared whenever speed exceeds the Speed fail set point. The
Speed fail timer should be started by the operator when the turbine or equipment
is ready to be started again.

For the speed fail timeout trip function to provide the intended fault
detection, 'Start' must be selected when the turbine or equipment is
to be started.

The timer can only be started when speed is below the Speed Fail
Setpoint. Selecting 'Start' has no effect if speed is above the Speed
Fail Setpoint.

Test Routines

Each ProTech-GII module provides a variety of test routines to support common
test requirements.

In general, a test may not be started if any other module is tripped or in test or if
the current module is tripped or in test. Also, tests will be aborted if another
module trips. One exception to these rules is the Temporary Overspeed Trip
Setpoint which can be applied to multiple modules or if another module is tripped.
The other is the Lamp Test which can be applied to any module at any time
without a password. If a test is not permitted, or aborted, messages displayed on
the front panel explain the cause. This Test Mode Interlock can be disabled in
the configuration settings.

Any test may be initiated (or cancelled) from the ProTech-GII Front Panel.
Modbus provides commands to initiate the Auto Speed Test. Finally, there is a
Periodic Overspeed Test function that will automatically run tests at a user-
defined interval.

For Modbus commands, a start confirmation is required and an abort
is also provided.

Temporary Overspeed Setpoint

This feature temporarily replaces the Overspeed Trip setpoint with a different
value for testing. This test mode can be applied to all three modules
simultaneously. The Temporary Overspeed Setpoint can be higher or lower than
the normal overspeed trip setting.

When the Temporary Overspeed Setpoint is set above the normal
overspeed trip, it should not be set above the maximum speed
allowed for the unit.


48 Woodward
The Temporary Overspeed Setpoint is designed to allow users to test the
modules overspeed function at level lower than the normal overspeed setting. It
also allows users to test the overspeed function of a mechanical bolt or other
overspeed protection system that may be at a higher speed that the electronic
overspeed trip setting.

An alarm is generated when this test is enabled. Also, there is a Temporary
Overspeed Trip Timeout feature that prevents an operator from forgetting to
disable this test. The timeout can be configured from 0 to 30 minutes. When the
test is enabled the timer starts, if it reaches the timeout value, the test is
automatically aborted.

Once the module is in its tripped state, this test is disabled and the modules
overspeed setpoint is returned to its normal setting.

Simulated Speed Tests

There are three tests that use an internally generated speed signal to test a
module's overspeed trip setpoint and trip output function. The ProTech-GII is
defaulted to use the Test Mode Interlock so that a module cannot be placed in
test while any other unit is tripped or in test. If it is desired to test a unit trip by
tripping multiple modules through these simulated speed tests, the Test Mode
Interlock can be disabled.

Manual Simulated Speed Test
This allows the user to manually increase/decrease a modules internal
frequency generator to perform a test of the overspeed trip function of that
module. This test can only be performed from the front panel of the ProTech-GII.

When the test is initiated, the frequency generator automatically starts at 100 rpm
below the overspeed setpoint. Then the operator can adjust the simulated speed
up or down from the front panel of the ProTech-GII.

When the overspeed trip occurs, it is logged in the module's trip log and noted as a test.

An alarm is generated while this test is enabled. Also, there is a Simulated Speed
Timeout feature that prevents an operator from forgetting to disable this test.
The timeout can be configured from 0 to 30 minutes. When the test is enabled
the timer starts, if it reaches the timeout value, the test is automatically aborted.
The operator can abort the test at any time.

Auto Simulated Speed Test
This test allows users to easily test the modules overspeed trip function by
having the modules internal frequency generator automatically ramp up to and
above the modules overspeed set point. This can be initiated from the front
panel or via Modbus. The auto test starts at 100 rpm below setpoint. Then the
frequency generator ramps up at approximately 10 rpm/s until the overspeed trip
occurs.

When the overspeed trip occurs, it is logged in the modules trip log and noted as a test.

To initiate the Auto Simulated Speed Test via Modbus, the Initiate Auto Speed
Test command (Modbus address 0:0102) must be followed by the Confirm Auto
Speed Test (Modbus address 0:0101) within 10 seconds. The intent of the
confirmation is to prevent an erroneous signal from initiating a test. The test can
be aborted from either the front panel or via Modbus.


Woodward 49
Periodic Overspeed Test
This test is similar to the Auto Simulated Speed Test but allows the ProTech-GII
to perform the test automatically on each module on a regular basis. The Test
Interval can be configured from 1 to 999 days. The test can be manually initiated
from the front panel, and then the test will be automatically repeated at the
specified test interval.

This test will automatically be applied to all three modules. First, the test will be
performed on the A module, and when the overspeed trip occurs, it is logged in
the modules trip log and noted as a test. Then, the A module is automatically
reset and the B module is tested. When the B module test is completed, the C
module is tested. In this way periodic testing can automatically be performed on
a regular basis with no operator intervention.

The operator can disable the periodic test from the front panel of the module.
When the Periodic test is disabled, or if any module is in trip or test, the Time
Remaining Until Next Test will be prevented from counting below 1 hour. If the
timer is already below 1 hour it will be increased to 1 hour. When Enable Periodic
Test is selected and no modules are tripped or in test, this limit on the timer will
no longer be in effect.

Configuration and Management of the Periodic Overspeed Test can only be done
through module A.

Alarm and Trip Latches

Reset Function

The Reset Function is associated with both the alarm and trip latches. A Reset
can be generated by pressing the reset key on the front panel, from the pre-
defined reset contact input, or via Modbus.

Alarm Latch

An "alarm" refers to an action of the ProTech-GII module to bring some condition
to the attention to the user. When any of the Alarm Latch inputs becomes true,
the output of the alarm latch is set TRUE and the yellow ALARM light is
illuminated on the front panel. The Alarm Latch output is connected to the Alarm
Relay. Each Alarm Input is individually latched, and those latched outputs are
available on Modbus. The individual latches can be reset by the trip reset
function if the input is false. The alarm latch output remains TRUE until the reset
function occurs and all inputs are false.

Here is the complete list of possible Alarm Latch inputs:

Trip Latch

In almost every case, the ProTech-GII and associated trip system will be
designed such that two modules must be issuing a trip command before the unit
will be tripped. This is referred to a 2-out-of-3 (2-o-o-3) trip scheme. In the
Independent Trip Relay version of the ProTech-GII, the trip action of each
module may put part of the trip system into a tripped state and at least two
modules must be tripped to trip the unit. In the Voted Trip Relay version of the
ProTech-GII, at least two modules would have to be in the tripped state for the
voter relay to go to its tripped state.

A "trip" of the module refers to the action of the ProTech-GII module changing the
state of its Trip output. When any of the Trip Latch inputs becomes true, the output
of the trip latch is set TRUE. The red TRIPPED light is illuminated on the front
panel. The module trip relays are put in the trip state (which could be configured as
energized or de-energized). Each Trip Input is individually latched, and those
latched outputs are available on Modbus. The individual latches are reset by the
reset function if the input is false. The first input to set the Trip latch, or First Out
(FO), is also latched. This first out indication is available in the trip log and on the
Modbus. The Trip latch output remains TRUE and the First Out indication remains
unchanged until the reset function occurs and all inputs are false.

When configured as de-energize-to-trip, the modules power up in the
tripped state. When configured as energize-to-trip, the modules
power up such that they do not enter the tripped state unless a trip
condition is present.

The user can reset a trip by pressing a button on the unit's front panel, or by
activating a discrete input that is dedicated to the reset function.

Here is the complete list of possible trips:
Power Up Trip
Configuration Trip
Parameter Error Trip
Internal Fault Trip
Overspeed Trip
Over-Acceleration Trip (if configured)
Speed Probe Open Wire (if configured)
Speed Lost Trip (if configured)
Speed Fail Trip (if configured)
Speed Fail Timeout Trip (if configured)

System Logs

Each module in the ProTech-GII logs (saves to memory) all trips, alarms,
overspeed, and over-acceleration events. Peak speed and peak acceleration are
also logged. The logs can be viewed from the front panel of the ProTech-GII or
from the PCT tool. With the PCT tool, the Configuration Error Log can also be
viewed. Also, the logs can be exported using the PCT tool.


Woodward 51
The logs, except the Configuration Error Log, are stored in non-volatile memory
so loss of power to the ProTech-GII will not affect this information. The log
functions use scrolling buffers that keep the most recent data. The individual log
sizes are described in the descriptions below. Logs can be cleared from the front
panel with the appropriate password. The Test Level Password is needed to
Reset All Logs except of the Peak Speed/Acceleration Log. The Config Level
Password is required to Reset the Peak Speed/Acceleration Log.

Overspeed/Acceleration Log

Any time an overspeed or over-acceleration event occurs, the date and time of
the trip, the speed and acceleration values at the trip time, and the maximum
speed and acceleration will be recorded. If the trip occurred during testing, this
will also be noted in the log. The log will save the last 20 overspeed or over-
acceleration events.

Trip Log

The module logs the last 50 trips. The log holds the trip description, the date and
time of the trip, whether it was the first out trip, and whether the module was
performing a test when the trip occurred.

Alarm Log

The Alarm Log stores the last 50 alarms. The log holds the alarm description, the
date and time of the alarm, and whether the module was performing a test when
the alarm occurred.

Peak Speed/Acceleration Log

The maximum speed and acceleration detected by the module will be logged.
This includes values generated by internal simulation testing. As this is intended
to be a maximum value capture, no date or time information is associated with
these values. This can be reset from the front panel with the Config Level
Password.

Response Time Performance

Independent Trip Relay

The response time is less than 12 ms (Note 1) measured from detection of
overspeed or out-of-range process to assertion of the trip relays.

Voted Trip Relay

The response time is less than 20 ms (Note 1) measured from detection of
overspeed or out-of-range process to assertion of the trip relays.

No operator intervention via the operator interface is required for the logic unit to
perform the safety functions.


52 Woodward
Note: See the following charts for measured response time. The response time
specifications are valid for measured frequencies of 2 kHz and higher. For this
reason, it is highly recommended that the user use speed wheel gearing that
provides the ProTech with a frequency of at least 3 kHz for the normal operating
speed. The internal frequency is calculated from rpm and number of gear teeth:

Frequency = (rpm) * (number of teeth) / 60

Figure 3-11. Response Time Definition

Analog Output

The response time of the analog output is less than 10 ms measured from a
change in speed to a change in the output current.

Modbus Communications

Modbus Communications

The ProTech-GII can communicate with plant distributed control systems and/or
CRT based operator control panels through three Modbus communication ports
(one port per module). Each of the three modules (A, B, & C) has a serial port for
Modbus communications. These ports support RS-232 or RS-485
communications using a standard Remote Terminal Unit (RTU) Modbus
transmission protocol. Modbus utilizes a master/slave protocol. This protocol
determines how a communication networks master and slave devices establish
and break contact, how a sender is identified, how messages are exchanged,
and how errors are detected.

Since each module has its own Modbus port and is fully isolated from the other
modules, each Modbus port provides that modules sensed information only
(speed, acceleration, etc.).

Monitor Only

Each of the three Modbus communication ports is designed to continually output
all Boolean and analog read information and can be configured to accept or
ignore write commands. This allows the ProTech-GII to be monitored but not
controlled from any external device.

If a Modbus ports Enable Write Commands setting is configured No, the
respective ProTech-GII module will not accept write commands from an
external master device (DCS, etc.). For security purposes, the option to ignore
write commands can only be enabled or disabled with a configuration-level
password.

Monitor and Control

If a Modbus ports Enable Write Commands setting is configured Yes, the
respective ProTech-GII module will accept write commands from an external
master device (DCS, etc.). This allows a Modbus compatible device to monitor all
read registers and issue Reset and Start/Abort Test Routines commands only.
Modbus ports are independent of each other, and can be used simultaneously.

To ensure that a Modbus-based command to trigger a module test is valid, both
Initiate Test and Confirm Test commands must be received to initiate a test
routine. A Confirm must be received within 10 seconds of the Initiate command;
otherwise, the sequence must be re-initiated. The ProTech-GII is designed to
allow only one module to be tested at a time. Thus a module will only accept an
Initiate Test command and perform the requested test if all three modules are
healthy, not tripped, and not in a test mode.


Woodward 55
Modbus Communication

Each ProTech-GII Modbus communications port is designed to function as a
slave device on a Modbus network using the industry-standard Modbus RTU
(remote terminal unit) transmission protocol. For more information on Modbus
networks and the RTU transmission protocol, refer to Modbus Protocol
Reference Guide PIMBUS300 Rev. J.

A Modbus function code tells the addressed slaves what function to perform. The
following table lists the function codes supported by the ProTech-GII:

Code Definition Reference Address
02 Boolean Read Registers 1XXXX
(Status of Alarms/Shutdowns, Discrete input/outputs)
04 Analog Read Registers 3XXXX
(Speed, Acceleration, etc)
05 Boolean Write Registers 0XXXX
(Reset and Test Initiate Commands)

Table 4-1. Supported Modbus Function Codes

As a slave Modbus device, the ProTech-GII is not responsible to sense or
annunciate Modbus link communication errors. However, for troubleshooting
purposes, the ProTech-GII will display a Link Error message in its Monitor
Modbus screen if a Modbus transaction request is not received within its five-
second time-out period. This error message is automatically cleared when
Modbus communications are re-established.

Port Adjustments

Before the ProTech-GII can communicate with the master device, the
communication parameters must be verified to match the master devices
protocol settings. For security purposes, these parameters can only be set in the
modules Configuration mode.

Modbus Communication Port Settings
Parameter Range
Mode: RS-232 or RS-485
Baud Rate: 19200 to 115200
Comm Parity: NONE, ODD or EVEN
Slave Address: 1 - 247
Enable Write Commands: Yes or No

Table 4-2. Modbus Serial Communication Port Settings

ProTech-GII Parameter Addresses

Each available read or write parameter has a unique Modbus address. A
complete list of the available parameters and their addresses is located at the
end of this chapter. This list consists of Boolean Write, Boolean Read, and
Analog Read parameters. Analog write parameters are not used with this device.


56 Woodward
All values that can be addressed by Modbus are considered to be discrete and
numeric. The discrete values are a 1 bit binary on or off value, and the numeric
values are 16 bit values. Discrete values are sometimes referred to as coils or
digitals, and numeric values are referred to as registers or analogs. All registers
are interpreted by the ProTech-GII as signed 16 bit integer values.

Since Modbus can only handle integers, values that require a decimal point in the
Modbus Master Device are multiplied by a scaling constant before being sent by
ProTech-GII. See the Modbus list for the scaling used on each analog parameter.

Boolean Writes (Code 05)

Boolean Write registers are used by an external master device (plant DCS, etc.)
to issue Boolean commands to a ProTech-GII module. The available write
commands are listed in Table 4-2.

Once a Modbus ports Enable Write Commands setting is configured Yes, the
respective ProTech-GII module will accept write commands from an external
master device (DCS, etc.).

NOTEAll write commands are edge-triggered.

Initiating a test mode
Only one test mode can be active at a time. Attempts to start a test are ignored
when another test mode is active, another module is tripped, or another module
is in a test mode.

Speed/user tests must be requested by first setting the Initiate bit, followed by a
setting the confirm bit. If the Confirm bit is not set within 10 seconds after the
initiate bit is set, then the test will not be requested.

Note that the confirm-initiate addresses are in reverse order so that an initiate
followed by a confirm cannot be executed by a single write command. Both bits
must be set to 0 before starting the initiate -confirm sequence.

If an Abort command is set to 1, an initiate-confirm sequence shall be ignored.

Boolean Reads (Code 02)

Boolean Read registers are used by an external master device (plant DCS, etc.)
to read the status of internal ProTech-GII module signals (hardware inputs, logic
blocks, hardware outputs, etc.). A Boolean read register will have the value 1 if
the status of the monitored signal is true and a 0 if false. The available Boolean
read registers are listed in Table 4-4.

Analog Reads (Code 04)

Analog Read registers are used by an external master device (plant DCS, etc.) to
read the value of internal ProTech-GII module signals (hardware inputs, logic
blocks, hardware outputs, etc.). An example of an analog read value would be
actual speed.


Woodward 57
With the Modbus protocol, analog values are transmitted as 16-bit integer values
ranging from 32767 to +32767 (if signed) or 0 to 65535 (if unsigned). Since
Modbus can only handle integers, values that have a decimal point are multiplied
by a constant before being sent by Modbus. For example, these input registers
may be listed as the Modbus value `x100 within the listed parameter table. Some
values, like the Timer values, are sent using more than one register. The
available Analog read registers, units (scaling), and range are listed in Table 4-3.

Heartbeat indication (1:1300)
The Heartbeat indication provides an indication that toggles every 1 second
between logic 1 and logic 0.

Last Trip time and date indication (3:0701 - 707)
Last Trip Date/Time represents the Date/Time of the most recent first out trip.

Unit Health indication (3:0801)
The unit health status indicates the state of the internal fault trip (if known) as
follows:
0 = internal fault trip is TRUE (Unit Health LED is green)
1 = internal fault trip is FALSE (Unit Health LED is amber)
2 = state of the internal fault trip is unknown because of a communication
fault (Unit Health LED is off)

Troubleshooting

Many troubleshooting features are available from the front panel of each module.
In general, the following high level approach can be used to troubleshoot the
ProTech-GII control.

1. Check the front panel LEDs
2. View the trip and alarm logs by pressing the corresponding view buttons on
the front panel
3. Use the messages in the trip and alarm logs to assist in troubleshooting.
The messages are summarized in the tables below.
4. Use the Monitor Menu from the front panel to trace and branch to potential
I/O, configuration, and programming problems.
5. For more in depth help, use the Programming and Configuration Tool
provided with the ProTech-GII.

The entry point for troubleshooting the ProTech-GII is the state of the three LEDs
on lower part of the front panel. The Trip Log and the Alarm Log can also be
viewed from the front panel. The Programming and Configuration Tool also
provides more detailed information in the log pages.

de-energize or energize to trip. De-energize to trip will place trip relays into their
unpowered, normally open state.

The de-energize-to-trip functionality is implemented such that a complete loss of
power to the module results in a trip of that module. The energize-to-trip
functionality is implemented such that a complete loss of power to the module
does not result in a trip of that module.

When configured as de-energize-to-trip, the modules power up in the tripped
state. When configured as energize-to-trip, the modules power up such that they
do not enter the tripped state unless a trip condition is present.

Failure Rate Data

The Mean Time to Failure (MTTF) is a measure of time between failures that
cause a complete process shutdown. In determining this number, IEC61508
evaluation takes into account safe failure and dangerous detected failures that
cause a module trip.

MTTF
> 54 000 years

Table 6-3. Failure Rate

Because of the nature of the 2-o-o-3 voting structure, a single module trip does
not shut down the process.

Response Time Data

The response time for a safety system must be less than the process safety time.
The system integrator must determine the process safety time and the response
time of all elements (sensors, ProTech-GII, actuators, etc.) that make up the total
process safety time. For this purpose, the ProTech-GII response time is given
below.

Response Time

Table 6-4. Response Time


Woodward 69
The response time of the ProTech-GII is the time from when a signal is received
at the ProTech-GII terminal blocks that is out of a range as defined by the
programming (i.e. speed, analog input), to the point where the trip relays have
changed state.

Figure 6-1. Response Time

Limitations

When proper installation, maintenance, proof testing, and environmental
limitations are observed, the product life of the ProTech-GII is 20 years.

Management of Functional Safety

The ProTech-GII is intended for use according to the requirements of a safety
lifecycle management process such as IEC61508 or IEC61511. The safety
performance numbers in this chapter can be used for the evaluation of the overall
safety lifecycle.

Restrictions

The user must complete a full functional check of the ProTech-GII after initial
installation, and after any modification of the programming or configuration of the
device. This functional check should include as much of the safety system as
possible, such as sensors, transmitters, actuators and trip blocks. The ProTech-
GII has programming capability to facilitate the automatic checkout and periodic
maintenance of the safety system. For help on programming, see the chapters
on functionality, configuration and the example applications.

The ProTech-GII must be used within the published specification in this manual.

Competence of Personnel

All persons involved in the initial design or modification of the programmable
software, installation and maintenance must have appropriate training. Training
and guidance materials include this manual, the ProTech-GII Programming and
Configuration Tool, and training programs available at Woodward. See Chapter 8
(Service Options) for more information.


70 Woodward
Operation and Maintenance Practice

A periodic proof (functional) test of the ProTech-GII is required to verify that no
dangerous faults not detected by internal run-time diagnostics remain undetected.
More information is in the Proof Test section of this chapter. The frequency of the
proof test is determined by the overall safety system design, of which the ProTech-
GII is part of the safety system. The safety numbers are given in the following
sections to help the system integrator determine the appropriate test interval. This
will require password access to the front panel menus.

Installation and Site Acceptance Testing

Installation and use of the ProTech-GII must conform to the guidelines and
restrictions included in this manual. No other information is needed for
installation, programming, and maintenance. This will require password access to
the front panel menus.

Functional Testing after Initial Installation

A functional test of the ProTech-GII is required prior to use as a safety system.
This should be done as part of the overall safety system installation check and
should include all I/O interfaces to and from the ProTech-GII that are part of the
safety system. For guidance on the functional test, see the proof test procedure
below. This will require password access to the front panel menus.

Functional Testing after Changes

A functional test of the ProTech-GII is required after making any changes that
affect the safety system. Although there are functions in the ProTech-GII that are
not directly safety related, it is recommended that a functional test is performed
after any change. This will require password access to the front panel menus.

Proof Testing (Functional Test)

The ProTech-GII must be periodically proof tested to ensure there are no
dangerous faults present that are not detected by on-line diagnostics. Because of
the 2-o-o-3 configuration of the ProTech-GII, it is possible to perform the proof
test while the ProTech-GII is on-line. Many built-in test modes are included. The
test procedure will set the trip outputs on the module under test into a trip state. It
is possible to automate several steps of the proof test procedure shown below
using the programmability and test mode configurability of the ProTech-GII, but
the intent of the steps below must be met.

With the procedure below, the user can expect 99% test coverage of the
dangerous failures that are not tested by online diagnostics.


Woodward 71
Functional Verification (Proof) Test Procedure (module level):
This procedure requires a digital multimeter for resistance and voltage
measurement. This will require password access to the front panel menus.

1. Cycle Power on the module and verify there are no internal faults
on the Alarm Latch page of the monitor menu.
2. Remove power from one power supply input (power supply input 1
or 2) at a time and verify the correct fault is read on the Alarm
Latch page of the monitor menu.
3. Measure external 24 V EXT (terminals 80 81; 23 1 V).
4. Verify proper Discrete Input voltage (terminals 37 38; 23 1 V).
5. Measure SPEED PWR (terminals 69 71). Insure active probe
mode is selected in Speed Configuration Menu, make the
measurement, and insure probe type is in original configuration
(23 1 V).
6. Test Speed input by using one of the internal speed test modes in
the Test Menu. Resistance measurement of each of the voter
outputs is required. Verify as follows:
a. With module not tripped, resistance measurement from 1A 1B,
or
2A 2B must be less than 100 .
b. With module tripped, resistance measurement from 1A 1B, or
2A 2B must be greater than 1 M.
7. Cycle dedicated inputs and verify the proper signal by monitoring
the respective input on the Monitor Menu/Dedicated Discrete Input
page of the front panel.
8. If possible, compare external speed with measured speed reading
on the ProTech-GII display.
9. If used as part of the safety system, verify the analog output.
Measure this output by performing an automated overspeed trip
test as described in
step 6.
10. Chassis isolation checks using resistance measurement.
Measure from terminals 39, 66, 67 to a point on the ProTech-GII
chassis (the grounding braid is a good place for this
measurement): < 1 .
11. Perform a lamp test from front panel Test Menu.

Test Modes Menu

The Test Modes Menu provides access to all of the ProTech-GII tests. The user
can initiate any configured test the front panel. The Test or Config Level
password must be entered to start any of these tests except for the Lamp Test.

The system is equipped with several internal test routines to verify configurable
logic and that parameters are working correctly. The test menu of the ProTech-
GII keypad contains following tests:
Temporary overspeed setpoint
This is an overspeed test with adjusted test speed setpoint executed with
the real hardware speed signal from the rotating machine. The speed of the
rotating machine must be raised within the allowed test time span in order
to test trip action. If the overspeed setpoint is not exceeded within this time
span, the overspeed test is aborted.
Manual simulated speed test
This is an overspeed test with the speed setpoint that is valid for the
machine executed with a simulated speed signal from an internal frequency
generator that initiates at the overspeed setpoint minus 100 rpm and must
be manually raised within the allowed time span to above the overspeed
setpoint in order to test the trip action. If the overspeed setpoint is not
exceeded within this time span, the overspeed test is aborted.
Auto simulated speed test
generator that initiates at the overspeed setpoint minus 100 rpm and is
automatically raised to above the overspeed setpoint in order to test the trip
action. If the overspeed setpoint is not exceeded within the requested time
Periodic overspeed test
The periodic overspeed test provides an auto simulated speed test at the
configured test interval. Since module A initiates the test sequence, the
periodic overspeed test can only be configured in module A.

Figure 8-40. Test Modes Menu

In general, a test may not be started if any other module is tripped/in test or if the
current module is tripped/in test. One exception to these rules is the Temporary
Overspeed Trip Setpoint which can be applied to multiple modules or if another
module is tripped. The other is the Lamp Test which can be applied to any
module at any time without a password. If a test is not permitted, or aborted, the
following messages explain the cause:

100 Woodward
Module Already Tripped! Test Aborted Indicates that the test cannot be
started because the module is already tripped.

Test in Progress - Indicates that the test cannot be started because the
module is already in the test mode.

Other Module Tripped! Test Aborted Indicates that the test cannot be
started or that a running test was aborted because another module is
tripped.
NOTE: This test mode interlock can be disabled in the Test Modes
Configuration of the PCT.

Other Module In Test Mode! Test Aborted. Indicates that the test cannot
be started because either of the other modules are in a test mode.

The Test Mode Interlock can be disabled in the configuration,
preventing a module from checking if any other module is tripped or
in test before starting a test.

Programming and Configuration Tool

General

Each ProTech-GII module includes preset overspeed, over-acceleration, alarm
latch, and trip latch functionality. It can be custom configured to meet a specific
application through a modules front panel or the provided Programming and
Configuration Tool (PCT).

The ProTech-GII includes a software-based PCT that can be loaded onto a
computer and used to:
Change overspeed and over-acceleration functionality settings
Save configuration settings to a file
Download configuration settings to each ProTech-GII module
Upload configuration settings from a ProTech-GII module
Upload and view stored logged files from a ProTech-GII module

An unsafe condition could occur with improper use of these software
tools. Only trained personnel should have access to these tools.

A straight-through serial cable is used to allow the designated computer (with the
PCT program loaded on it) to communicate with a ProTech-GII. Refer to Figure
2-18 for cable-specific information.

The PCT consists of a combination of Woodwards ToolKit HMI (Human
Machine Interface) software program and a special ProTech-GII application file.
Although the PCT is provided with each ProTech-GII on an included software
installation CD, it can also be loaded from Woodwards Internet website
(www.woodward.com/software).

The PCT is designed to allow off-line (while not connected to the ProTech-GII)
program and configuration settings to be generated, saved, and then downloaded
into a ProTech-GII. On-Line (while connected to the ProTech-GII) configuration
settings can be manipulated. This is an example of a typical process to follow to
program and/or make changes to the ProTech-GII via the PCT:
1. Open ToolKit and connect the computer to the desired modules RS-232
service port.
2. On the toolbar, click Connect and connect to the ProTech-GII via the PCT
connection wizard.
3. Select the appropriate security level and enter the password, then click Log
In.
4. Under the Settings menu, choose the desired task.
5. Select a .wset file to modify/edit or create a new one from default values.
6. Save the .wset file to a directory on the computer.
7. Under the settings menu, click Load Settings File to Device to download the
saved .wset file to the ProTech-GII module (module must be in tripped
state).
8. Using the Config Menus Configuration Management function, if desired,
copy the downloaded program to the other two ProTech-GII modules.


Woodward 107

in a ProTech-GII, an error window is displayed if data entered is invalid,
incomplete, or out-of-range (as shown in the example below).

View Trip and Alarm Log

After selecting View Trip and Alarm Log, a list of all recent trips and/or alarms
that have been detected and logged in the ProTech-GII are displayed. Each log
can contain up to 50 events. Logs can be cleared from the View Trip and Alarm
Log screen or from the front panel user interface, with Test Level permissions or
higher.


Woodward 113
The log contains a description, the time stamp, first-out and/or test-mode
indicators. The first-out indicator contains an asterisk (*) for the first detected fault
condition(s) after the latch was cleared of all active faults. The test mode
indication contains an asterisk (*) if the ProTech-GII was in any of the test modes
when the fault condition(s) occurred. The logs can be saved to an html file using
the Export button.

Selecting the Reset All Logs button will clear the Trip, Alarm and Overspeed/
Acceleration logs. The Reset All Logs button is only visible when logged in with
Test Level permissions or higher. If desired, the logs can be cleared from the
front panel user interface (see Logs Menu). The logs can be saved to an html file
using the Export button.

Woodward 115
Configuration Overview

The Configuration Overview screen shows CRC codes associated with the
overall configuration and with individual (sub-component) configurations. The
CRC is a value calculated from the configuration data, so that if the data
changes, the CRC will change. CRC codes that do not match represent
dissimilar configurations and matching CRC codes represent identical
configurations.

Comparing CRCs between modules or before and after a software change can
provide confirmation of where configurations are the same and to facilitate
isolation of configuration changes. The log can be saved to an html file using the
Export button.

The CRC values are also displayed on the front panel user interface (see
Configuration Management Menu/Configuration Overview screens).

NOTE: Although some functions are not available (as noted below) on ProTech-
GII, the Parameter Block CRCs are still available.

Configuration of the ProTech-GII

Changing the configuration settings in the ProTech-GII is permissible
only in a trip condition. If the unit is not in trip condition,
configuration changes are inhibited. If no trip condition is present, a
power-up trip condition can be generated by a power supply cycle.

There are two options for changing the configuration settings in ProTech-GII:
Using the ProTech-GII front panel
Using the Programming and Configuration Tool (PCT)

The changes that can be done via the front panel are limited to the following
functions:
Speed Probe Type

These buttons are only available if a serial communications link is established.

After selecting one of the buttons, a pop-up screen is displayed in which
particular parameters for the selected function can be checked and modified if
necessary.

For executing this configuration, see Configuration Settings in this chapter.

The right bottom corner of each sub-screen has three buttons and an information
bar.

The information bar shows the minimum and maximum values that can be
selected on the input field where the cursor is located.

In the example below (in the speed pop-up screen), if the cursor is located at the
overspeed setting, the valid range of values is between 100 and 32000.

If a serial communication link is active, and Config level is active, and there are
no configuration errors, then:
After the OK or Apply button is pressed, the new configuration setting will
immediately be uploaded to the ProTech-GII.

If the new configuration setting is not immediately uploaded, there are three
possibilities:

Test Modes

The system is equipped with several internal test routines to verify configurable
logic and that parameters are working correctly. The test menu of the ProTech-
GII keypad contains following tests:

Temporary overspeed setpoint
This is an overspeed test with adjusted test speed setpoint executed with
the real hardware speed signal from the rotating machine. The speed of the
rotating machine must be raised within the allowed test time span in order to
test trip action. If the overspeed setpoint is not exceeded within this time
Manual simulated speed test
generator that initiates at the overspeed setpoint minus 100 rpm and must
be manually raised within the allowed time span to above the overspeed
setpoint in order to test the trip action. If the overspeed setpoint is not
exceeded within this time span, the overspeed test is aborted.
Auto simulated speed test
generator that initiates at the overspeed setpoint minus 100 rpm and is
automatically raised to above the overspeed setpoint in order to test the trip
action. If the overspeed setpoint is not exceeded within the requested time
Periodic overspeed test
The periodic overspeed test provides an auto simulated speed test at the
configured test interval. Since module A initiates the test sequence, the
periodic overspeed test can only be configured in module A.
Lamp test
The lamp test verifies the front panel LED functionality by cycling through
the color combinations. When the test is started, the following sequence is
followed.
1. Tripped, Unit Health, and Alarm LEDs are turned off for 1 second.
2. Tripped LED is on and red, Unit Health LED is on and red, and
Alarm LED is on and yellow for 1 second.
3. Unit Health LED turns green for one second.
4. Tripped, Unit Health, and Alarm LEDs are turned off for 1 second.
5. LEDs return to displaying their active state based on operating
conditions.
The test can be repeated as needed. A cancel option is also provided to
cancel the test or to return to the previous test modes screen.

that are questionable and should be verified. A Configuration Error indicates a
problem in the settings file that needs correcting. If a configuration error is
detected during a settings file load, the file load is aborted and the values are
discarded. Detection of configuration warnings will not preclude a settings file
load operation.


Woodward 139
Configuration Check Message Summary

1. Error <block identifier> is set to an invalid or out-of-range value.
2. Error - Proposed configuration contains data that is invalid (out-of-range).

Error Messages and Solutions

Configuration Error

If a configuration error exists, the Configuration Error Log must be reviewed. See
View Configuration Error Log section in this chapter.

NOTE: The configuration check is performed by the ProTech-GII after a settings

Woodward Factory Servicing Options

The following factory options for servicing Woodward products are available
through your local Full-Service Distributor or the OEM or Packager of the
equipment system, based on the standard Woodward Product and Service
Warranty (5-01-1205) that is in effect at the time the product is originally shipped
from Woodward or a service is performed:
Replacement/Exchange (24-hour service)
Flat Rate Repair
Flat Rate Remanufacture

Replacement/Exchange: Replacement/Exchange is a premium program
designed for the user who is in need of immediate service. It allows you to
request and receive a like-new replacement unit in minimum time (usually within
24 hours of the request), providing a suitable unit is available at the time of the
request, thereby minimizing costly downtime. This is a flat-rate program and
includes the full standard Woodward product warranty (Woodward Product and
Service Warranty 5-01-1205).

This option allows you to call your Full-Service Distributor in the event of an
unexpected outage, or in advance of a scheduled outage, to request a
replacement control unit. If the unit is available at the time of the call, it can
usually be shipped out within 24 hours. You replace your field control unit with
the like-new replacement and return the field unit to the Full-Service Distributor.

Charges for the Replacement/Exchange service are based on a flat rate plus
shipping expenses. You are invoiced the flat rate replacement/exchange charge
plus a core charge at the time the replacement unit is shipped. If the core (field
unit) is returned within 60 days, a credit for the core charge will be issued.

Flat Rate Repair: Flat Rate Repair is available for the majority of standard
products in the field. This program offers you repair service for your products with
the advantage of knowing in advance what the cost will be. All repair work carries
the standard Woodward service warranty (Woodward Product and Service
Warranty 5-01-1205) on replaced parts and labor.

Flat Rate Remanufacture: Flat Rate Remanufacture is very similar to the Flat
Rate Repair option with the exception that the unit will be returned to you in like-
new condition and carry with it the full standard Woodward product warranty
(Woodward Product and Service Warranty 5-01-1205). This option is applicable
to mechanical products only.
