2301D-ST
Digital Load Sharing and Speed Control
DESCRIPTION
The Woodward 2301D-ST is a microprocessor
based control with integral application software
designed for single-valve steam turbine
applications. Like Woodwards 2301A line of
controls, this control is housed in a sheet-metal
chassis and consists of a single printed circuit
board. To facilitate unit retrofits, the
2301D-STs I/O terminals are located in the
same general location as Woodwards 2301A
line of controls.
This control is designed to perform the core
control functions of a small steam turbine
package. The application software is field
configurable, allowing it to be configured and
modified to meet site-specific requirements.
With more I/O than its predecessor (the 2301A
LSSC), the 2301D-ST control also has serial
communications, allowing it to easily interface
with the package PLC or plant DCS.
The 2301D-ST is configured and serviced
(dynamic adjustments made) via a laptop
computer connected to the controls
RS-232 communications port. These
configuration and dynamic settings are set,
changed, tuned, and saved via a laptop
computer and Woodwards user-friendly Watch
Window software program. This Windows
based PC program allows users to set and
adjust all application-based parameters, plus
upload and download configurations to and
from the control.
APPLICATIONS
The 2301D-ST is a field-configurable control
designed for single-valve steam turbine
applications. This control is configurable to
allow it to be easily applied in a diverse range
of turbine applications.
The control can be configured as a

replacement for Woodward 2301A or 2301A
LSSC controls, or for use within new turbine
applications.
The 2301D-ST includes the following basic
turbine control functions:
Speed Control
Start Valve Ramp
Overspeed Protection
Shutdown Logic
Alarm Logic
Platform Diagnostics
Manual Start, Semi-Automatic Start,
Automatic Start option
Self Powered Actuator option
Alternatively, the following functions can be

configured, depending on application
requirements (I/O limitations may prohibit
selecting all listed functions at once):
Process control
Critical Speed Avoidance logic
Remote Speed/Load setpoint
Droop/Isoch Control
KW/Actuator Droop
Load Sharing (with soft load/unload
transfer)
SPM-A (Synchronizer) Input
Power Sensor Input (PTs & CTs)
ServLink (DDE)/Modbus *
Communications
An integral RS-232 communications port

allows users to interface with the
2301D-ST through industry-standard Dynamic
Data Exchange (DDE) or Modbus based
protocols. Alternatively a contact can be
programmed to allow users to switch between
protocols as desired.
A hazardous location version is available.

CONTROL FUNCTIONS
The Woodward 2301D-ST controls a wide variety of single-valve steam turbines used in electrical generator, compressor drive, or
pump applications.
Turbine Start-up/Shutdown
The 2301D-ST provides configurable turbine start-up
scheduling via a Valve Ramp. On start-up, the turbine
accelerates according to the Valve Ramp schedule until the
speed control loop takes control of the turbine. The valve
ramp can also be used to shutdown the turbine.
Isoch/Droop Operation
When configured for generator drive applications, the
2301D-ST can operate in either an isochronous or droop load
mode. In the "Isoch" mode, the 2301D-ST controls plant/unit
frequency control by maintaining turbine speed. In the
"Droop" mode the 2301D-ST controls generator load. If the
generator is connected to the utility bus while in droop mode,
the unit speed will be determined entirely by the bus
frequency. If the generator is disconnected from the utility
bus, the unit speed will droop as the load increases.
KW Droop Operation
If KW droop is configured, the control uses the output from its
integral power sensor to sense and control unit load. The
controls power sensor output can be monitored via serial
communications or through the controls analog readout. If
required, any of the controls four relay outputs can be
configured as a power level switch to drive auxiliary devices
or indicators.
Isochronous Load Sharing
The 2301D-ST includes an analog load sharing network
input, which is compatible with Woodwards 2301A line of
controls. The controls soft load/unload transfer function can
also be configured to rate limit unit loading and unloading.
SPM-A Input
Optionally the 2301D-ST can be configured to accept a 3
Vdc synchronizing signal. This input is compatible with and
intended to be used in conjunction with Woodwards SPM-A

synchronizers.
Critical Speed Avoidance
The 2301D-ST can be configured to provide one speed range
to be avoided for turbine protection. Under normal
circumstances, the turbine speed setpoint will rapidly ramp
through the critical speed range.
Remote Speed Setpoint
One of the analog inputs can be configured to remotely
control the speed setpoint. The maximum rate at which the
speed setpoint can be changed by the remote input is
configurable by the user. The remote speed setpoint is
enabled and disabled from a contact input or Modbus
communications.
Process Control
A process control can be configured to receive a remote
process input. That process input is compared to a process
setpoint to maintain the desired process operating point. The
process setpoint is adjustable by raise/lower contact inputs,
Modbus communications or a configurable remote 420 mA
setpoint signal.
Communications
The 2301D-STs RS-232 port serves two purposes: to
configure and service the control, and to interface with the
control through Modbus communications. A Windows based
PC program used on a control-connected laptop is used to
set and adjust all application-based parameters, plus upload
and download configurations to and from the control. Once
the control has been configured, an optional switch can be
used to select ports Modbus protocol. Through Modbus
communications, a user can monitor all turbine-specific
parameters as well as control the unit (start, stop, etc.) as
desired.
