Mark VI Training Simulator

Introduction

Improve the effectiveness of your operations and maintenance 

with GE Energy’s Mark VI Training Simulator. The training 

simulator uses your actual site-specific application software 

and operator screens to drive the turbine simulation. 

Operators can refresh their knowledge of commands and 

system responses on a replica of the actual turbine control – 

with no risk to the turbine. Training can occur on site, for any 

shift, at your convenience and be repeated days, weeks, or 

years later for new personnel.

Maintenance personnel can also train on editing and 

downloading real turbine software, trend parameters as they 

actually respond on the unit, and exercise the wide range of 

advanced analysis tools that are available to maintain the 

turbine. The training software can even be updated to reflect 

changes made on the real unit and be compared with the 

original code – it’s the real deal!

Availability

The Training Simulator is available for all Mark VI control 

systems applied to any gas or steam turbine with a generator 

or mechanical load. It is also available for power island 

applications, such as Heat Recovery Steam Generator (HRSG), 

and balance of plant applications, such as combined cycle 

plants. GE Energy can also provide an experienced instructor 

to teach a regular training course or a customized program at 

your site.

Benefits

•  Operators – Improved effectiveness in using screens, alarm 

management, and trending

•  Maintenance – Decreased time required to troubleshoot 

problems and maintain unit availability

•  Refresh Skills – Revisit basic tasks that are infrequently 

needed, but still important in the modern age of  

automated controls

•  Life Cycle Cost – A permanent, onsite, simulator to provide 

effective, ongoing training for the life of the control system
