Taurus 60 Gas Turbine Mechanical Drive
2.1 General
Description
The
Taurus
60 gas turbine mechanical drive package is completely integrated and fully
operational, equipped with the accessories and auxiliary systems required for operation.
In addition to the standard package features, a wide array of optional equipment is
available to meet customers’ installation and operation requirements. The driver package
can be combined with one or more
Solar
centrifugal gas compressors to form a complete
compressor set (see section 4) or it can be used to drive other manufacturers’ gas
compressors or pumps (see section 5). Designed specifically for industrial service,
Taurus
60 packages are compact, lightweight units requiring minimal floor space for
installation. Proven packaging designs greatly reduce installation costs, time, materials,
and labor. Figure 1 shows a side view of a typical
Taurus
60 Mechanical Drive package.

2.2 Package
Description
The
Taurus
60 gas turbine package is installed on a steel base frame referred to as the
skid. The skid is a structural steel assembly with beam sections and cross members
welded together to form a rigid foundation. Drip pans are included to collect any potential
liquid leakage. Package connection points for fuel, lube oil, air, and water are located on
the outer edge of the skid. Electrical connections are made in on-skid junction boxes.
Machined mounting surfaces on the base frame facilitate component alignment. Major
