LM6000PC uprate
GE’s LM6000PC upgrade gives more power without the need for gearbox changes—all within the same package and engine footprint of the LM6000PC gas turbine.
Benefits of the LM6000PC uprate
More power, better life, more flexibility
GE’s LM6000PC uprate will produce the same higher firing temperatures, higher torque, and rad-rad swirlers of the LM6000PG. By upgrading a PC turbine to a PG turbine that operates at 3,600 RPM instead of the normal 3,930 RPM of the PG, customers can benefit from some PG improvements.
What can upgrading do for you?
- More power: Operate LM6000PC uprate with SPRINT* and increase output nominally 6% more than current LM6000PC SPRINT levels—54.5 MW output—simple cycle (T2 = 50 oF)
- Water savings: Eliminate SPRINT water and continue to exceed existing PC SPRINT output
- Extended life: Expected increase in the maintenance intervals of the combustor, hot section, and major overhaul compared to current LM6000PC
- Convert an LM6000PC engine to an LM6000PG engine, either by exchanging the existing engine or modifying selected components
- No reduction gearbox needed in 60Hz segment: LP speed = 3,600 RPM instead of the 3,930 RPM on standard LM6000PG packages
- Conversion kit configured to maintain same engine and package footprint
- Same NOx and CO emissions
