Pickup Seal-In Time
The 3105 T-HOLD pickup seal-in time serves to extend pulsed pickups to the parameterized minimum duration.
Delay Times
If reverse power without emergency tripping is used, a corresponding time delay must be implemented to
bridge any short reverse power states after synchronization or power swings subsequent to system faults (e.g.
3-pole short circuit). Usually, a delay time 3103 T-SV-OPEN = approx. 10 s is set.
Under emergency tripping conditions, the reverse power protection performs a short-time delayed trip subse-
quent to the emergency tripping via an oil-pressure switch or a position switch at the emergency trip valve.
Before tripping, it must be ensured that the reverse power is only caused by the missing drive power at the
turbine side. A time delay is necessary to bridge the active power swing in case of sudden valve closing, until
a steady state active power value is achieved. A 3104 T-SV-CLOSED time delay of about 1 to 3 s is sufficient
for this purpose, whereas a time delay of about 0.5 s is recommended for gas turbine sets. The set times are
additional delay times not including the operating times (measuring time, dropout time) of the protective func-
tion.
