Operational exibility
Back pressure or condensing turbines, where the steam path is adapted to the needs of the individual customer, provide an optimal solution when medium pressure and temperature conditions are available. The blading is of highly standardized design, which is robust and proven. The single body turbine is designed for high thermo-exibility, permitting short start-up times and rapid load changes. The rotor is made of solid forging or with forged discs shrink-mounted on the turbine shaft and keyed. It is short and rigid, resulting in operation well below rst critical speed, using babbittlined sliding type bearings to assure smooth and well-damped operation. The reduction gears are taken from the existing range of world class gear manufacturers and have proven high reliability and performance.

Design features
The SST-100 single casing package module is pre-designed for high standardization and short delivery times. It is a compact solution and utilization of selected proven components assures high reliability and easy maintenance. The turbine skid and gearbox / oil unit are fully assembled in the workshop before shipping to site. The pre-designed turboset enables early planning of turbine building layout, saving time for the customer.
Power Generation
SST-100 turbine variations are achieved by selecting from a number of pre-dened stages for incorporation into the standard design.
Easy maintenance
Our proven installation and maintenance concept lowers maintenance costs by enabling easy access to the installed components.
Condensing application
The condensing turbine design is derived from the back pressure version. However, there are some design differences, for example: There are up to seven impulse stages, including condensing stages The exhaust casing is oriented downwards through the base frame or upwards, depending on the application Diaphragm carrier for the last three stages Steam turbine SST-100 mounted on base frame

SST-100 steam turbines are part of a modern range of Siemens steam turbines developed to meet the most demanding customer requirements for cost-efficient power generation and mechanical drive applications in power plants and industrial environments. This is achieved by using a highly modularized system of state-of-the-art components with well proven design features. Its development is based on experience accumulated during a century of steam turbine design, manufacturing and operation.
The SST range of our turbines cover the complete spectrum from 2 to 180 MW and are available in back pressure, condensing and extraction design. The table above shows the Siemens full range of industrial steam turbines and their most important parameters. Whether you need a generator drive for power generation or a mechanical drive for compressors, blowers and pumps just tell us your needs and together we can select the optimum turbine or turboset which is most suited to respond to them.
