Api 612

API 612 allows combining turbine overspeed protection with shutdown systems if performance requirements are met, with separate controls. A new annex provides equations for calculating overspeed excursions. The minimum requirement for trip oil system dump solenoids is two parallel de-energize to trip valves, though a two-out-of-three or two-out-of-four arrangement is recommended to improve availability.

API 612:

Combining the turbine overspeed protection with the turbine shutdown system is allowed
as long as the
performance requirements can be met controls must still be separate from the shutdown
system and
overspeed system.
A new annex (Annex D) is included that provides the equations and method for
calculating overspeed excursions
(based on ASME PTC 20.2)
The minimum requirement for trip oil system dump solenoids is two parallel, deenergize- to-trip valves. The
standard recommends using a two-out-of-three or two-out-of-four arrangement to
improve availability.
