3. Trail check auxiliary oil pump. Control oil pump .emergency oil pump .oil vapour
exhaust fan turning gear motor. Condensate water pump .gland steam exhaust fan .over
head tank oil fill up
4. Check before start all safety inter locks of turbine (steam temp .bearing temp&
vibration .vacuum .lube oil. control oil pressure, Exhaust Temp., Rotor Differential
Expansion, Axial Shift, Hot Well Level , TCP Panel Lamp Test Hotter Check.)
5.Check All Control valve (Hot Well Level , And Recirculation c/v HP Heater And LP
Heater And 25 Ata c/v )
6. Check All Mortised Valve Open and Closed.
7. Check Cooling tower Level Start ACW Pump , CW Pump charge The Condenser And
Oil cooler And Generator Cooler And BFP Bearing Cooling Line I/L and O/L Valve
Open. (Ensure The Air vent Valve Open Before Charge condenser Generator And oil
Cooler.)
8. Start The AOP Pump Fill up Over Head tank (Start MOT heater As per Required)
9. Start Mot Vapour Extraction fan.
10. Start Bearing Gear Motor (Ensure Before Start The Motor to Engagement of Bearing
Gear At Local)
11. Start Control Oil Pump And 2nd Pump Auxiliary Mode.
12. Ensure Hot Well Recirculation Control Valve in Auto Mode And Set Point 34 TPH
13. Ensure Hot Well Control Valve in Auto Mode And Set Point 50%.
14. Ensure Hot Well Level 50% Than Start CEP Pump And 2nd Pump in Sequence Mode.
15. Ensure Steam Start UP Vent Valve Open And All Steam Drain Valve Open,
16 Charge The Main Steam Line And 25 Ata Line for Ejector.
17. Start Vacuum Puling (Through Hogger) And Vacuum Rich -0.70 Kg/Cm2 After Main
Ejector Take in Service Close The Hoggar.
18. Gland Sealing Charge Sealing Temp. More Than 150 C And Vacuum More Than -0.2
Kg/Cm2

19. After Healthy Vacuum And steam Temp, More Than 300 C Turbine Reset Form TCP
Panel.
20. Before Start Turbine Ensure Casing Expansion Minimum 1.5 MM.
21. Turbine Start Steam Temp. More Than 300 C Pressure 62Kg/Cm2 And Parallel
Check Vibration, Bearing Temp, Axial Shift, Rotor Differential Expansion, Exhaust
Temp.
22. Cold Start up 750 RPM 30 Minutes.
23. Worm Start up 750 RPM 20 Minutes.
24. Hot Start up 750 RPM 10 Minutes.
25. Take The Turbine Rated Speed (Automatic Speed Increased to Rated Speed.)
Push The Rated Button on TCP Panel.
26. Critical Speed Min. 2680 RPM to 3300 Maxi. RPM.

(ROUTINE SUT DOWN)

1. Out 1,2,3, Extraction.
2. Reduce The Generator Load (By The Speed Switch) Minimum Load 1.5MW to
1.0MW.
3. Open Generator Breaker.
4. Manually Shut Down The Turbine ( By Pressing Stop Button on TCP Panel)
5. Auxiliary Oil Pump Start Automatically When Lube Oil Pressure Decrease to The set
Pressure.
6. Break The Vacuum (Stop Ejector and Gland Sealing System.
7. Closed The Main Steam Valve.
8. Stop The Gland Steam Condenser Fan.
9. Stop The Control Oil Pump.
10. Turbine Speed Comes Down 500 RPM Start Baring Gear Motor Automatically And
Turbine Speed Come Down 60 to 52 RPM Engage Baring Gear Clutch Automatically.
11. Turbine Baring Gear Rotate Approx 10 to 12 Hrs. to Cool Down The Turbine Rotor
And Casing And Bearing
Baring Gear Engagement Procedure And Interlocks
1. Turbine Speed Comes Down 500 RPM Start Baring Gear Motor Automatically And
Turbine Speed Come Down 60 to 52 RPM Engage Baring Gear Clutch Automatically.
2. Before Start Baring Gear Ensure in Field Engage Clutch And Than After Start Baring
Gear.
3. Start AOP Pump and Insure In field its running and the person is to be away from the
barring gear during its starting.
4. If AOP is in stopped condition the barring gear motor will not take the start command,
and if AOP tripped then the Barring Gear will also tripped (Interlock).
INTERLOCKS
If Bearing Gear pump is not in standby mode, it will not start automatically.
If motor operation switch is not in TCP mode than also bearing gear pump will
not start
automatically.
3.
If AOP is in stop condition and bearing gear pump is in stand by mode and
bearing gear
clutch is in engaged position, in this condition as soon as AOP start then Bearing gear
pump will start automatically (Due to oil pressure switch healthy).
4.
If AOP is not in running bearing gear pump will not run.
