3. Motor Set Installation 3.1 Lifting Motor set

Motor assembly : Approx. 7,300 kg

Transport motor set as shown below


Prepare to lift and install motor set

Do not damage motor set !


Lift motor unit carefully Do not remove temporary covers !

Use Chain-block 10tons/2 sets for lifting up & down

3. Pump/Motor Set Installation 3.1 Lifting Motor set


Remove temporary cover before motor set installation, use 1ton Chain Block Inspect casing and heat barrier sealing faces and set spiral wound gasket on heat barrier before motor set installation

3.1 Lifting Motor set into Pump casing

Paint bolt numbers

Determine Initial Tightening Starting Position Measure dimensions B & C at 4 points using depth gauge and micrometer. Calculate starting distance between pump casing and motor flange (A) by formula Initial Tightening Starting Position A=C-B+1.6mm Record dimensions (A, B, C)

Paint bolt numbers on both pump casing and motor flange (1-16) Strip paint from a suitable part for micrometer head at 4 points on bolt pitch-circle ( shown by arrows in fig. )

3. Motor Set Installation 3.1 Lifting Motor set into Pump casing
CAUTION While Lifting Motor set Stop Lifting Motor set at the position Impeller approaches Wearing Ring . Fig1.
Measure 4 points of distance A and adjust till value of A is same at all points Lift Motor set slowly by measuring distance A for the 4 points and carefully operating 2 chain blocks at the same time till Impeller is positioned into Wearing Ring smoothly as in Fig2. Initial tightening distance A shall be followed in item 3.3.

Fig.1

Stop Lifting Motor set in case the Impeller touches Wearing Ring during lifting, then lift down Motor set and inspect Impeller & wearing ring for damage. Repeat lifting and setting by to properly.

3-2 Setting Nuts/Washers to Stud Bolts
Locate washers, and screw nuts onto stud bolts
The head of each stud bolt is to protrude approx.170mm from motor flange !
Pump casing

Stud bolt

Coat molybdenum sulfide on threads of each stud bolt and mating surface of each washer

170mm

3.3 Tightening the Stud Bolts
Measure each distance (A) by inside micrometer and confirm the

tolerance is less than or equal to 0.05mm

Mark each nut and motor flange

3. Pump/Motor Set Installation 3.4 Tightening by Bolt Heaters


Confirm that power source is off, then connect cable to switch box.

Motor flange

Stud bolt

Insert a bolt heater into each of 16 stud bolts Switch on every second bolt heater (1st group) (8 heaters : No.1,3,5,7,9,11,13,15) Confirm that every second stud bolt is heated Surface temperature of stud bolts should not exceed 300 deg.C !
Monitor temperature using a temperature crayon or surface thermometer

Be careful of burns !!

3. Motor Set Installation 3.4 Tightening by Bolt Heaters


Tighten 20 scale divisions first Bolt layout

Switch off bolt heaters and cool down stud bolts to approx.60 deg. C
Switch on bolt heaters for remaining 8 stud bolts. Tighten these 8 nuts by 34 scale divisions. (2nd group : No. 2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16) Switch off bolt heaters and cool down stud bolts to approx.60 deg. C 34 20 14 0

Switch on first set of 8 bolt heaters to heat up first 8 stud bolts, then tighten respective nuts by further 14 scale divisions for a total of 34 scale divisions. (No.1,3,5,7,9,11,13,15) After all stud bolts cool down to room temperature, measure flange to flange distance A at 4 points within 0.05mm. Record the measurements.

23 scale divisions

3. Motor Set Installation 3.5 Installation of HP Motor cooler


Clean Motor Cooler by water flushing and seal face of each welded sockets before welding work Carry proper socket welding to position: after confirming Motor cooler & HP piping position Inspect each welded HP connection by PT Clean LP cooling water piping line to Motor cooler and carry welding socket connections Confirm final tightening of bolts (mark ) for Motor cooler support. Install the instruments for each position.
In case of BHEL design, these should be welding connection
