FLEXIBILITY FOR
GAS TURBINE POWER
During the past three decades the need
of gas turbine power plants has increased
considerably. Reason for this is the short
term built up and extreme flexibility with
possible quick start up and shut down for
on demand power availability. To increase
the flexibility of the power plants, diverter
systems enable alternative use as singleor combined cycle system with connected
heat recovery steam generator.
The damper system offers:

High flexibility
High availability
High reliability
Low thermal losses

A SMART AND
RELIABLE CONSTRUCTION
A diverter, as its name suggests, must
divert or guide large amounts of exhaust
gases emitted from a gas turbine during
operation. This exhaust gas contains
heat energy, which must be directed to a
heat recovery steam generator.
When diverted through the stack the genarator can be completely isolated from
the exhaust gases. During normal operation however, the gases are directed
through the generator. In this cases the
stack will be isolated by the diverter flap
to ensure that no heat energy is lost.

The design of Camfil Power System
incorporates high reliability components to ensure an absolute minimum of

COMPONENTS
The advantage of diverter dampers from
Camfil Power Systems is the flexible
operation possibility with multi function
hydraulic units. Ouick start of the gas
turbine via bypass, then regulated slow
heating of the heat recovery steam
generator and emergency opening to
bypass operation during full load of the
gas turbine are available.
The position of the flap itself is infinitely

controllable. Besides completely shut,
the blade can be positioned into preferred intermediate positions.
The drive system can completely open
and shut the flap within 60 seconds or
20 seconds in emergency case. It is
then possible to mechanically lock the
flap in this position.

BLANKING PLATE
SYSTEM
For inspection of the heat recovery steam generator additional
safety isolation is often requested. The Camfil Power System
blanking plate system is operated by electrical winch and
inserted through an opening cover with automatic pressure
