INTRODUCTION This manual deals with the emergency actions that are to be carried out when an annunciation occurs during Sootblower operation. Even though many protections are available in the sootblower control panel, sometimes it is likely mal-operation can happen. At that time the operating and maintenance engineers may be in search of correct course of action. We hope this manual will help the operating and maintenance engineers to know what safe action they can take to protect the sootblowers as well as the boiler tubes. The contents of the manual has been carefully prepared. However, it must be understood that no amount of written instructions will replace intelligent thinking and alertness on the part of the operator during an emergency to reason the causes of mal-f unctions and to take ‘immediate remedial actions demanded by the situation. Suggestions for the improvement of the manual would be welcome.

SOOT BLOWER MOTOR OVERLOAD



This annunciation will come on as soon as the motor gets overloaded the traverse motor will get stopped. The thermal overload relay is set to act normally when the current exceeds 105 percent of the rated current. The probable causes and solutions for his are given below : 2.1



Long retractable soot blower - Motor overload- Probable Causes and Solutions :



Sl. No. (i) (ii) (iii) (iv) (v) (vi)



Causes



Solutions



Lance tube fouling with boiler tubes Overtightened gland packing



Same solution as indicated under sootblower jamming. Do not overtighten the glands. A slight leakage of steam is allowed. Wrong overload relay setting Check the overload relay setting and set the relay at the correct value. Dust accumulation over the rails Clear the dust and debris. Wrong motor installation in Check the overload relay setting and powerpacks. set the relay at the correct value. Damaged power/control cables (Short circuit in any two phases in M.C.C. or Terminal box)



Check the power cables. It is likely that cables damage will result in short-circuiting. (a) Check the power cable from MCC. to blower terminal box. (b) Check the power cable from the motor to terminal box. (c) Check the terminal box of motor. Refer the motor instructions manual.



(vii) Motor winding fault 2.2 (i)



Wall deslagger: Swivel tube fouling with the boiler tubes (ii) Wrong overload relay setting (iii) Short circuit in the powerloads in M.C.C. or in terminal box (iv) Motor winding fault (v) The rack comes out of pinion



Same solution as indicated under ‘Sootblower jamming’. Do as suggested in 2. 1. (iii) Do as suggested in 2.1 (vi)



Do as suggested in 2.1 (vii) Sometimes because of loose screws of cams the rotary gear box is likely to come out of pinion. For this (a) an easy solution would be to put two rubber washers on guide rods. (b) Periodically tighten the cam screws. (vi) Improper meshing of gears Dismantle the gear box and check the meshing of gears. Overload relay should be reset in M.C.C. before operating the same blower. After ensuring the lance of the particular blower is withdrawn to the home position only, the sequential operation should be continued. Physical checking is a must.

SOOTBLOWER OVERRUN The total time for forward and reverse operation of sootblowers is supervised by elapsed timers. When the blower stays for a longer time than its normal working time the blower overrun annunciation will come and will stop automatic sequence operation and at the same time retract the blowers to its initial position. Normally the timer is set in excess by 1 or 2 minutes of blower operating time. The probable causes and suggested solutions are given below 3.1 Long Retractable Soot blower-Soot blower overrun-Probable causes and solutions



Sl. No.



Causes



Solutions



(i)



Faulty reverse limit switch



If the blower is not withdrawn auto-matically Immediate action Allow the steam flow if the blower is located in hot zone. Send one man for closing the regulating valve manually. Switch off the power, Then withdraw the lance manually. Caution Do not allow the lance inside the boiler for a longer time with blowing medium. Later Check the limit switch contacts, spring, etc. If it is in serviceable condition service and put back the switch. If it is not possible then replace the switch with a new one.



(ii)



Wrong timer setting



Normally the timer is set more than 1 minute than the operating time. Check the timer setting and set correctly. Check the forward and reverse contactor, clean the terminals and' contacts and put back in M.C.C. Immediate action : (a) Allow the steam flow not more than 5 minutes. (b) Wrap a chain or rope around the travelling carriage through a winch. If this takes too much of time, stop the steam flow. By doing so it is likely that the lance may get bent. In case of blowers located in low temperature zones, the steam flow can be cut off just after the jamming has occurred (c) And now stop the steam flow. (d) Pull out the lance tube. Later : Replace the damaged chain link, using connector link. Immediate Action : (a) Cut off power supply. (b) Allow the steam flow for not more than 5 minutes. (c) Retract the lance, using the hand crank. Later Assemble a new motor and check the direction of rotation before the blower is put into operation again.

4.



STEAM PRESSURE LOW This annunciation will come to the operator as soon as the system pressure is lower than the set value. As soon as the annunciation is received, retract the blower immediately and stop the sootblowing operation. The probable causes and suggested solutions are as follows:



S1. No. (i)



Probable Causes



Suggested Solutions



Multiple leaks in the system (a) sootblower valve passing. (b) Sootblower flange leakage. (c) Drain valve heavy leakage. Mal-functioning of pressure reducing valve



(ii)



(iii)



Hand stop valve partially closed



(c) Then proceed with SB operation. (iv) Erratic action of pressure switch or damaged pressure switch.



(v)



Broken supply line



Stop the sootblower operation. Later Identify the leakage in the system and attend the leaks. Immediate Action: Stop the sootblower operation. Later : Attend to this problem. Ref.detailed instructions for trouble shooting of pressure reducing valve. Immediate : (a) Stop the sootblower operation (b) Open the valve fully.



Immediate Action: Sootblowing can be continued by watching the pressure indicator available on the panel. Later : Attend to pressure switch or replace with a new one. CAUTION : Close the steam supply before attending the work. Immediate : Stop the sootblower operation. Later : Close the steam supply. Repair the failed steam piping. Then proceed with Sootblower operation.



‘Reset’ push button on the panel should be pressed to continue the sequential operation. Physical checking is a must wherever necessary.



9 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 2 - 13



5.



STEAM TEMPERATURE LOW This annunciation is provided so that the operator will be cautioned when the medium temperature is low. It is likely that low steam temperature will cause condensation which will lead to boiler tube wastage. This may be due to inadequate ‘warm up’ and poor insulation. The solutions will be sufficiently warm up the line and ensure sound insulation. Another cause may be choking in the drain line. The solution would be to remove the condensate properly. ‘Reset’ push button should be pressed after rectifying the fault to continue the sequential operation further.



10 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 2 - 14



6.



STEAM NO FLOW During the operation of the blower, if steam supply is interrupted for a longer time than the set time in the timer, then the annunciation will come, stop the sequence and retract the lance to the home position. ‘Steam no flow’ interlock was caused by failure to turn on the blowing medium approximately 45 secs after a signal was sent to sootblowers. The probable causes and solutions are as follows :



Sl. No. Probable causes 6.1 (i)



Solutions



Long retractable sootblower. Missing blowing adjustment bar or broken adjustment bar.



As soon as the alarm is initiated check whether the blower lance is retracted back to the home position bypass the blower and proceed with sequential operation. Later : Assemble the blowing adjustment bar. (ii) Mal-adjusted or damaged flow switch If adjustment is to be corrected, correct the switch. If (common for wall deslagger) you have found that the switch is damaged then attend to the damage. If it requires longer time proceed with the sootblower operation bypassing the inter-lock. But this can be done only if one or two men are kept near the blower. (iii) An improper setting in the timer Adjust the timer to initiate annunciation after 45 sees. (common for wall deslagger) (iv) Valve not opening due to Immediate If the blower is retracted back then bypass the blower (applicable for wall deslagger) and proceed with, sequential operation..

10. PHILOSOPHY OF JAMMING RELAY PROTECTION AND OVERLOAD RELAY PROTECTION IN SOOTBLOWER MCC. 1.



Overload protection is for all motors and for all blowers.



2.



The setting of overload relay shall be 105% for all the motors for all types of blowers. All motors in all types of blowers have 110% capacity for 30 mts.



3.



The normal loading of motors in all the blowers when the blower is working with steam is likely to be around 50%.



4.



The overloading of motor in LR blowers is expected due to hitting of tubes etc.



5.



The overload relay which is set at 105% when about 300% current (starting current) is flowing will act in about 25/30 secs. (When the relay is hot/ cold).



6.



Jamming relay protection is only for long retractable type blowers. The jamming relay shall be connected in Traverse Motor power line. Jamming relay will act instantaneously.



7.



The current setting of the jamming relay shall be 105% of traverse motor rated current.



8.



A time delay relay (0-10 secs.) is provided in Jamming relay protection circuit and is set at 2 secs. This is to avoid the nuisance which may arise due to action of Jamming relay 7during the starting of traverse motor. The starting time of traverse motor is 0.3 sec. The starting current of traverse motor is 3.0 Amps.



9.



Jamming relay with its circuitry will act when overloaded to 105% due to overload/ jamming while on forward operation and reverse the blower. Overload relay will act when overloaded to 105% while on traverse operation. The blower stops operating. However the motor is protected.



10.



Locked rotor withstand time for traverse motor is 40 secs. in hot and 75 secs. in cold conditions.

GENERAL INFORMATION 1.1



GENERAL



Where the magnitude of the installation justifies the cost, a set of record plans should be provided by the installation engineer or contractor, clearly indicating the complete layout of the installation. There is always the possibility that hair, hands or clothing may be caught in moving parts of electrical machines, which should thus be so located or guarded as to minimize the risk of such injuries to those who may come in contact. In the case of equipment subject to the provisions of the Factories Act such mechanical protection is a statutory requirement. 1.2



STORAGE



If the machine has got to be stored for some time before installation, the same has to be done in a clean, dry place. If the location is susceptible for vibrations transmitted due to working of heavy machinery, proximity to rail track, etc. it is desirable to have a resilient pad between the floor and the machine. Also keep the shaft of the motor locked so that, bearings are not damaged during storage. However, periodically rotate the shaft free and relock it. 1.3



LOCATION OF MOTORS AND CONTROL APPARATUS



Apparatus shall be so located that all current-carrying parts are adequately ventilated in relation to the losses to be dissipated in the form of heat. Note:



In no circumstances should the motor be enclosed in a box or other covering hat restricts or excludes the ventilating air to a significant extent. Such restriction may result in the burning out of the motor when a sustained load approaching the full value is reached.



The motor and control apparatus shall not be located where it is liable to exposure to water, corrosive liquid, oil, steam, carbon, copper dust, dirt or other adverse condition or to risk of mechanical damage, unless it is suitably enclosed to withstand such conditions. Adequate access shall be provided to all working parts. The possible need for facilities for removing the equipment at a later date for repairs or maintenance should be considered in relation to the accessibility of the equipment. Note:



For handling heavy equipment it is often advisable to arrange for the incorporation of a lifting beam in the structure of the building, the beam being located immediately over such parts of the equipment as may require attention and being capable of supporting the maximum weight involved.



The placing of apparatus in situations where inflammable material may be present should be decided in relation to the fire risk involved, and where it is impracticable to segregate the apparatus from such material, the use of totally enclosed or pipe ventilated apparatus should be considered. Where resistors are used which are liable to operate at high temperatures, they should be adequately spaced away from combustible materials such as wood-work, in order to combat the risk of fire. Whenever the temperature of the casing of the apparatus is liable to exceed 194 Deg. F (or 90 Deg.C) the casing should be so located or guarded as to prevent accidental contact by persons or with combustible materials. 1.4



GEAR DRIVES



With gear drives, alignment is equally important. The centre of the pinion shall be in line with the centre of the spur wheel and the two wheels perfectly parallel, the latter being checked by means of feeler gauges between the teeth of the respective wheels. The gear wheels shall be fully meshed both in depth and along their width of face and the check for meshing shall be made all the way round the driven wheel in case it is out of truth. Should the driven wheel be out of truth and the meshing adjusted correctly at the lowest point of the driven wheel, the gears would jam when the high parts engage and probably bend the motor shaft. 3 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 3 - 21



Bevel or single helical gears will impose an end thrust on the motor shaft, and are not therefore recommended unless provision is made to take the thrust. Double helical gears may also transmit an end thrust if the end-play in the bearings of the driven gear is greater than the end-play in the motor bearings. Where mechanical conditions are severe it is sometimes necessary, particularly in the case of large motors, to employ an outboard bearing for the motor shaft and in some cases to mount the driving pinion in two separate bearings and couple it to the motor through a suitable flexible coupling. A flexible coupling is invariably necessary when a motor is coupled to a selfcontained gear box. It is advisable, when any drives of the above mentioned or similar types are considered, that this be specified so that provision can be made to suit the conditions. Where motors are fitted with ball and roller bearings, care shall be taken to ensure that no axial strain is imposed on the bearings when the half-couplings are bolted together. 1.5



DRYING OUT



All motors shall be dried out before the full voltage is applied to the terminals, if the insulation resistance is below one megaohm when the machine is cold. A convenient method of doing this is to block the motor so that it can not rotate and apply a very low voltage of about 10 percent of the normal to the stator terminals. In the case of slip-ring motors, the rotor windings should be short-circuited. Close supervison is necessary during the process of drying out with this method. The heat generated in the windings is not easily dissipated and one part of the winding may be exceeedingly hot before another part has had time to expel the moisture. This may be obviated to some extent by taking every precaution to exclude draughts from the exposed parts of the windings. The motor can be placed in oven, if available, but the temperature shall not be allowed to exceed 180 Deg. F (or 82.2 Deg.C). Alternatively, hot air may be blown into the motor but the air should be clean and dry and at a temperature of not more than 180 Deg.F. If no other means are available, coke braziers or electric radiators may be placed round the machine. Carbon filament lamps placed inside the machine can be employed quite satisfactorily, but care shall be taken that the hot bulb is not in contact with any windings. If it is not possible to reach a sufficiently high temperature the ventilation may be reduced by covering the stator with a tarpaulin. Whichever of the above methods of drying out is adopted, the heating shall be continuous and shall be carefully watched to ensure that it does not attain a temperature sufficiently high to damage the insulation. The maximum safe temperature of the windings measured by thermometer is 180 Deg. F (or 82.2 Deg.C). At the same time the temperature should not be allowed to fall too low as otherwise re-absorption of moisture would take place. The insulation resistance will be found to drop considerably as the motor warms up, will reach the minimum and then remain constant for sometime depending upon the dampness of the machine and as the drying proceeds the insulation resistance will gradually rise. The drying out shall be continued as long as the insulation resistance rises, or until a sufficiently high value has been reached, i.e. not less than 1 megaohm per 1000 volts at 75 Deg.C. During the drying out period, readings of temperature and insulation resistance shall be taken atleast once an hour in order to see how the drying out is progressing. The temperature of the motor shall be kept as constant as possible, otherwise the insulation resistance readings may be misleading. NOTE: 1.6



The motor should be watched constantly whilst drying out. REVERSAL OF ROTATION



Reversal of rotation, if required shall be effected by interchanging two of the three supply leads connected to the stator switch, breaker or starter. 4 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 3 - 22

INSPECTION AND TESTING 2.1



GENERAL



All electrical equipment shall be inspected and tested by competent persons at regular intervals, the frequency of such inspection depending on the type of equipment and on the operating conditions. A record of each inspection and of the result of tests should be kept. 2.2



MECHANICAL



Machines shall be checked for alignment to ensure that undue stresses are not imposed on their bearings. Where oil-lubricated bearings are employed care should be taken to see that oil does not penetrate on to windings or other insulation. In addition clearances shall be kept to reasonably close limits as too large a clearance may affect correct alingment and may cause fouling of the stator by the rotor, whilst too small a clearance may disturb running mechanical balance. Oil should be checked to see that it is clean and up to the right level. The air gaps in sleeve bearing machines shll be checked before commissioning. This check should be repeated at periodic intervals. Mechanical operation of motors control gear and protective devices shall be checked for freedom from external material, care being taken when commissioning to see that all packing materials are removed. In the case of motors and control gear, attention should be paid to all contacts, the contact pressure and contact area being checked and verified as being proper to the operating conditions involved. If ball roller bearing motors have been kept idle for periods longer than six months whether new, spare or stand-by plant, the bearing covers should be removed for inspection of grease. If it is found that the grease has a skin over the surface, the bearings should be washed out thoroughly in kerosene, and three drops of fine oil added to the race. The bearing housings should be repacked with new grease recommended by the makers, care being taken to ensure that the balls or rollers will not churn in the grease. One of the chief functions of grease is to prevent the entry of dust to the races, very little being required for lubrication. 2.3



ELECTRICAL



All fixed connections shall be checked for tightness and where heavy currents are involved a check shall be made to see that contact adequate in area and pressure to prevent undue heating is effected between all contact surfaces. Before the equipment is put into service, it shall be tested for insulation resistance and other tests as may be necessary should be made. Continuity tests shall be carried out, particular attention being given to the secondary connections of current transformers. Before switching in for the first time, protective devices shall be set at their minimum current values and at the minimum time setting in order to minimise the consequence of any fault condition which may arise. The rating of fuses shall be checked by inspecting the marking on the cartridge-type fuses or inspecting the gauge and type of wire in the case of semi-enclosed type-fuses. Where practicable, the operation of overload, no volt and other types of protective device shall also be checked. The results of such checking should be related to the ascertained resistance of the earth-fault current path so as to determine the prospect of the protective device operating in the event of a fault to earth. Earth leakage protection should be adopted in the following cases: a.



If the ascertained resistance is such as to restrict the fault current to a value below the operating value of the overload releases.



b.



If the margin is too small to ensure reliability in all seasons. 5 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 3 - 23



c.



If, where fuses are used, the resistance is such that sufficiently rapid operation cannot be ensured, and the earthing conditions cannot be improved.



Protective fuses shall be examined regularly, and, as far as possible tested. Where relays are used in conjunction with current transformers, the test should preferably stimulate working conditions by utilizing the injection method whereby current is passed through the relays by the application of a variable injection voltage from a transformer designed for the purpose.



3.



MAINTENANCE PROTECTION OF EXPOSED SURFACE 3.1



GENERAL



Protective paint and varnish shall be maintained in good condition by repainting or revarnishing when necessary, it being noted that in many instances, such as that of machine windings, spraying is the only effective means of application of such protection. MOTOR Cleaning of Machines Motor shall be blown out at regular intervals to keep their ventilating passage clear, it being emphasised that many types of totally enclosed motors required such attention, particularly when operating in dusty atmosphere. Moisture, oil, dirt, grease and carbon or metallic dust are the principal causes of breakdown. The motor should therefore be kept clean and dry; water dropped on the machine will soon cause trouble, unless the motor has been designed to withstand such conditions. The stator and rotor windings must be kept free from oil and grease, damp and dirt. Periodic cleaning with dry compressed air, bellows or a brush, is very necessary. All motors require to be examined and dismantled from time to time and the frequency of successive cleanings will depend upon the conditions under which the machine operates. During periodic cleanings care shall be taken to clear air passages in the stator and rotor of any accumulated dirt. Terminals and screw connections shall be kept clean and tight. If they become dirty or corroded, they shall be disconnected and all contact surfaces made clean and smooth. Bad contact leads to sparking and ultimate breakdown. After reassembly, the gaps shall be tested as a precautionary measure by means of a feeler gauge. If it is found that the air gap measurements of two diametrically opposite points differ by as much as 25% the machine shall be examined, because the brackets or bearing housings will not be correctly aligned. Gap measurements shall always follow reassembly, since rubbing between stator and rotor will cause extensive damage. 3.2



INSULATION RESISTANCE



The insulation resistance of the windings shall be tested periodically during service and where this is found to drop below 1 megaohm/KV with a minimum of 1 Megohm the motor shall be dried out and put in service. If weak insulation, resistance becomes a regular feature the windings shall be given a coat of good insulating varnish after the machine has been dried out. Where the motor is installed in locations, subject to dampness, chemical fumes, etc., the installation indicator such as a neon lamp to show the condition of the insulation of the motors is recommended. 3.3



REMOVAL AND REPLACEMENT OF BEARINGS



In small frame motors, the bearings can be removed with a bearing puller. The cartridge type bearing housing is employed in large frame motors. After cleaning, the housing should be greased with the specified grade grease and the bearing replaced by applying even pressure to the outer race. Having ensured that the bearing is square with the housing, it may be necessary to tap lightly into position. 6 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 3 - 24



Having ascertained that the outer race beds firmly against the housing shoulder, the whole may be slipped over the shaft which should be cleaned and oiled. The bearing may now be forced on to the seating by means of a tube placed over the shaft and applied to its inner race; this method ensures even pressure and the bearing may be driven home against its locating shoulder. On no account must the inner race mounted by hitting the outer race and pressure should not be applied to the outer race during the process. The blows should be equally distributed all round the inner race and care should be taken to avoid hitting or applying pressure to the lip of the inner race, in the case of a roller bearing. Otherwise the bearing along with the bearing housing can be heated in medium oil Shell Tellus – 33 Deg. at a temperature not exceeding 100 Deg. C for about one hour to enable easy mounting by push fit. 3.4



BALL AND ROLLER BEARINGS



Climatic conditions affect the lubrication and it is necessary to ensure that the bearings do not run hot. This shall be tested from time to time by placing the hand on the bearing cap. A moderate warmth to the hand is a ready indication that the bearing is running at its best. Higher or lower temperatures are not dangerous in themselves but increasing temperature or noise are sure signs that the bearing needs immediate attention. It may be that the addition of a small amount of grease will arrest and cure the trouble. When opening up bearings for inspection and cleaning, all dirt and foreign matter shall be removed from the neighbourhood of the bearing caps. The caps shall then be removed and the bearings, caps and housings washed with kerosene, all old grease also being removed in the process and the parts thoroughly cleaned. If the bearing is in good condition, fresh grease shall be pressed well between the cage, races, balls and rollers. We recommend Shell Alvania No.3 grease or it’s equivalent. After packing the bearing, any superfluous grease shall be wiped off. If the bearing appears dirty or if the grease has become hard and disintegrated the bearing shall be removed from the shaft, withdrawn from the housings and closely inspected for signs of wear. 3.5



LUBRICATION



It is often assumed that with the substitution of rolling motion for sliding motion in antifriction bearings, the sources of friction are eliminated and lubrication is of secondary importance. But this is not correct since sliding friction still occurs at the cage which separates the rolling elements or between the element themselves if they are not separated. The smooth and silent running of antifriction bearings depends to a large extent on the high degree of finish imparted to the tracks and rolling elements, and quite apart from its function of minimising wear on rubbing surfaces, the lubricant is required to protect these highly finished working parts. The rolling element bearings require a small amount of lubricant depending upon the size and type of bearing and generally the lubricating intervals are long. However, lubricant must always be present in the bearings otherwise their lift may be affected or retarded by injuries which could have easily been avoided. The main functions of lubricant in a bearing are: i.



To provide a separating film between rolling and sliding contacting surfaces, thus pre venting wear.



ii.



To act as a coolant to maintain proper bearing temperature.



iii.



To prevent the bearing from being contaminated by dirt and other foreign matter.



iv.



To prevent corrosion of bearing surfaces.



When the moving parts of a bearing come in contact with grease, a small quantity of oil adheres to the bearing surfaces. Oil is therfore removed from the grease near the rotating parts. The oil that is picked up by the bearing is gradually broken down by oxidation, or lost by centrifugal 7 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 3 - 25



TWO PART BEARING HOUSING



BALL BEARING WITHDRAWAL BALL BEARING REPLACEMENT force, and volatalisation. Bleeding of the Grease therefore takes place to continue the supply of a small quantity of oil, which is usually sufficient for satisfactory operation. Lithium based Multipurpose Grease conforming to Grade 3 of IS 1002-1956 amended upto date, is recommended for all Rotating machines fitted with antifriction bearings. The popular greases are: Shell Alvania (or Multipurpose) Grease 3 Mobilux Grease No.3 Castrol Shperol. AP3 The safe operating temperature range for the above greases is: -130F to 2480F (approx. Value) The quantity of Grease which should be applied to the inside of the bearing when relubricating is, D x B W



= —————— x 28.35 Grams 6000



Where



D = O.D. of the Bearing in mm B = Width of the Bearing in mm W = Weight of grease in gm



Running conditions, especially speed relative to the bearing size determine the permissible relubrication frequencies, provided an approved ball bearing grease is used. Over-lubrication is equally hazardous as under-lubrication. If excess grease is maintained in the race-track under-pressure, excessive friction develops often resulting in the break-down of the grease, which in turn affect the life of the bearing considerably. 3.6



CONTROLLERS, STARTERS AND RHEOSTATS



The contact and insulating parts must be kept thoroughly free from dirt and moisture and there shall be firm metallic connection between fixed and removable contacts when they come together. The covers shall be removed periodically for inspection. Fuse contacts and terminals must be examined periodically for cleanliness and tightness. When a fuse wire or strip has to be renewed, care must be taken that the new is of the correct metal and size. 8 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 3 - 26



3.7



SAFETY DEVICES



Remote tripping devices and limit switches which are provided for safety reasons but which may not be called upon to function under normal operating conditions, shall be checked for operation at regular intervals. Interlocks designed to prevent unsafe operations shall be checked periodically by a deliberate attempt being made by a competent person to perform the operations which the interlocks are designed to prevent. Where an emergency supply is provided, the source of supply and all ancillary apparatus shall be checked periodically. 3.8



CHECK CHART



A check chart should be kept for assistance in the maintenance of the motor. A recommended chart is given in Section 4. All reports and test results shall be recorded in a suitable log book.

INTRODUCTION This general instruction, sets some guidelines in preventing puffs and furnace explosions during soot blowing and outlines the procedure for setting blowing pressures. A check list for operation and a recommended procedure for start-up are given for general care and correct start-up. The section on maintenance gives a detailed glimpse into the maintenance problem. The lubrication schedule helps the maintenance man to choose the correct lubricant and carry out the lubrication plans. No Soot Blower system will operate satisfactorily if it is not properly installed, operated and maintained. It must be recognised that no amount of written instructions can replace intelligent thinking and reasoning on the part of the operators, especially when coping with unforeseen operating conditions. It is the operators’ responsibility to become thoroughly familiar not only with the equipment but also with all pertinent control equipment. The instruction contained in this manual is only an outline of the correct procedures for operation and maintenance. The contents in this manual have been compiled and checked by experts in this field. Every possible care has been taken to ensure the contents are accurate. Suggestions for the improvement of the manual are welcome. If you ever have any query about operation, maintenance or related problems, you are welcome to write to BHEL without obligation.

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS 1.1



Ordering Repair Parts



When ordering repair parts, always give the Name, Part No., Drg. No., as found on the parts lists and Model number as found on the brass name plate. In the case of bearings and elements, swivel tubes or lances refer to Element Location Drawings and give the Drawing No. for the specific piece needed. Elements may vary for different locations. If you have more than one boiler, give the type, size, rating and location of the boiler or boilers for which parts are needed, and the order number under which you purchased the Blowers for which parts are needed. 1.2



A Word of Caution



Carelessness in repairing a blowing equipment can cause serious injuries. Accidents can be prevented by taking simple precautions. Always get permission and clearance from the proper authority before starting to repair any equipment. Use proper lifting equipment for heavy equipment. Do not attempt repairs beyond your ability. Before repairing any equipment operated by steam or air, make sure all supply valves have been closed, tagged or locked and also the electrical connections are cut off. If steam or air supply lines must be energised for purpose of test, use extreme caution.



2.



PREVENTING PUFFS AND FURNACE EXPLOSIONS DURING SOOT BLOWING Explosions, puffs, or blow backs that occur during or as a result of soot blowing operations should be reported to and discussed with the boiler manufacturer. It is impossible to establish a definite procedure to prevent these difficulties because of the variation of fuels and the design and operations of Steam Generating equipment. The start-up or operating engineers working in conjunction with design engineers or boiler manufacturing firms are best qualified to recommend procedures of operation on their particular equipment. The following recommendations are presented for consideration when it is necessary to establish operational procedure to prevent these difficulties. 4 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 4 - 40



(i)



Cleaning Cycle



As a guide line we suggest a soot blowing cycle of once in a day to start with may be established. After watching the performance of the particular coal, oil or any other fuel, with reference to the deposit formation, the blowing cycle can be altered. It is essential to have a satisfactory cycle so that the heat recovery surfaces are kept free of deposits at the same time the tube surfaces are not damaged because of frequent blowing. The life of the soot blower parts will also proportionally decrease with increased frequency. The Boiler operating personnel can establish the optimum blowing cycle depending on the actual furnace conditions. It is impossible to predict the deposit formation since too many factors influence the same. (ii)



When possible, the boiler to be cleaned should be operating at or near the maximum design load.



When soot blowers are operated at low boiler loads, clouds of soot may be blown into the gas stream to form explosive mixtures which may be ignited by the heat from furnace walls or by smoldering soot fires. Soot blower operation at low boiler load, with a resulting colder furnace may also result in some of the unburned combustibles escaping from the furnace and collecting in pockets in back passes. Agitation and ignition of these gas pockets will cause puffs or explosions. All tube surfaces and gas passes, therefore, should be blown with the gas flow at or near maximum to purge the boiler of these possible explosion causes. (iii)



On oil or pulverised fuel fired boilers, soot blowers should be used with the burners operating at the highest possible burning rate, maintaining even stable combustion. Soot blowing schedules should be established to take place during the heaviest load periods, or the burner firing rates should be increased during soot blowing. Burners should be checked during soot blowing for stability.



A high burning rate assures a lower oxygen content in flue gases which eliminate the difficulty as explained in (ii) above. High and stable burning rates also prevent flames from being blown out by small puffs or agitation of the gas flow common while soot blowing. (iv)



Before operating soot blowers the furnace drafts should be increased by opening the boiler outlet damper or by making the appropriate adjustments of the induced draft fan to take care of the increased flue gas volume due to the soot blowing operation. Increased furnace draft helps to purge combustible gas pockets explained in (ii) above.



Increased furnace draft improves cleaning by moving soot particles through gas passes rather than re-depositing them on adjacent surfaces. (v)



Conditions may require the operation of soot blowing equipment with the burners out of service as when cleaning prior to outages to facilitate inspections.This procedure is dangerous. If unavoidable, soot blowing operation should not proceed while the refractory is still hot and there is any possibility of soot fires still smoldering in the setting. Be sure the boiler is cold and inspect the setting for smoldering soot before blowing.



(vi)



The normal sequence of soot blowing is to follow the gas flow through the boiler. The first soot blower to be operated should be the nearest to the burners then each unit in turn along the gas passes to complete the cleaning cycle. This method thoroughly cleans the entire unit by moving along the passes rather than blowing them loose and redepositing them on adjacent surfaces. It may be desirable to reverse this procedure when soot deposits are unusually heavy to avoid plugging and puffs or explosions in the back passes. 5 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 4 - 41



Blowers should then be operated in reverse order from rear to front to rear. This procedure may be desirable during period of low load operation, as when units are banked, or on Marine installations when ships are put out to sea after time spent in port. (vii)



3.



For operating wall deslaggers,operate the row of wall deslaggers at the highest elevation first and then follow downwards, so that, heavy slags dislodged and deposited at lower elevation will be cleared by further soot blowing operation and fall to the ash hopper due to its weight.



PROCEDURE FOR SETTING BLOWING PRESSURES FOR SOOT BLOWER SYSTEMS 3.1



Introduction



All large, high pressure boilers and many medium and small boilers today employ a pressure reducing valve in the steam supply to the soot blower system. This requirement, coupled with the fact that all individual soot blower operating head pressures can be easily adjusted externally while the units operating, permits adjustment of the blowing pressures without internal orifices and at the same time permits operation of the system on a relatively low supply pressure. The reduced supply pressure reduces packing and valve maintenance and makes the system more flexible for pressure adjustment at later dates without the necessity of installing orifices. A step by step procedure is outlined to attain this set up. Use the pressure gauge and the connected fittings issued by us for measuring the blowing pressure. Connect the pressure gauge fittings as shown in the figure. 3.2



Recommended Blowing Pressures



The suggested blowing pressures are listed out in the blowing pressure table, released in 00,076 erection drawing group separately for each contract. When these pressures are not shown on the blowing pressure Table BHEL should be contacted for this information. Request for this information should be complete with blower no. location and the existing blowing pressure. 3.3



Customer Information



It is a most important step that the customer, the operators and the maintenance personnel understand that these Recommended Blowing Pressures are based on past experience with similar fuels, boiler design and firing conditions. The pressures are recommended for trial as a starting point. Blowing pressures are those that are required to clean can only be determined after a period of operation and trial settings with adjustment later, if necessary. 3.4



Set High Pressure First



The unit marked for highest blowing pressure on the Blowing pressure table is set up first. This will usually be a retractable unit in the platen section or in front of the slag screen, (i)



The valve head is designed for high pressure. The valve opening of each blower is adjusted using the setscrew to the required blowing pressure such that the valve dis is opened fully or partially without completely compressing the spring (i.e. spring should not be solid).



(ii)



The steam supply is then turned on and the pressure recommended is set on this high pressure unit from the blowing pressure table by adjusting the supply pressure at the Pressure Reducing Valve. As an example the blowing pressure on this first unit may be 18 Kg./cm2 and the supply pressure may be as low as 21 or 25 kg/cm2 depending on line drop. 6 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 4 - 42



3.5



Set Pressures on Other Models



The next step is to set pressures on one each of the other models in the system – one wall deslagger, one rotary and one air preheater cleaner if they are employed in the particular system. In selecting the one unit of each of these models to be checked, consideration should be given to the highest blowing pressure used on that particular model as well as the unit farthest from the source of steam supply. Line drop will be the only reason for not being able to obtain the recommended pressures. Where pressure cannot be set as high as desired because of line drop on these secondary model settings, it obviously will be necessary to increase the supply pressure through the Pressure Reducing Valve and reduce the pressure on the individual high pressure unit first set up. 3.6



Setting Pressure on all Other Units



From the above procedure we have established the minimum header supply pressure to give the maximum blowing pressure on all of the various soot blower models or types of equipment used in the system. It is now only necessary to set the other pressure by restricting valve opening on other units using lesser pressures. These pressure settings must be made with pressure gauges and the units in actual operation. Measuring the valve opening or using feeler gauges is not reliable since accumulation of tolerances in the valve linkage causes a variation in pressure settings. Normally, no alteration is necessary to the safety valve setting. The seal on safety valves must not be broken or changes made to these safety settings without specific reasons. Safety valves are for the protection of the equipment and system in case of Pressure Reducing Valve failure and their setting does not coincide with this method of pressure setting in any way.

Safety Valve set pressure Because of the pressure fluctuations occuring in the system when each soot blower valve head is opened and closed the slow reaction of the Pressure Reducing Valve actuator the safety vave is likely to pop or chatter depending on the set pressure. The set pressure can be 7 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 4 - 43



increased if the set pressure is not already in the maximum setting. Normally a set pressure upto 42 Kg./cm2 (g) can be set with a 600 psi rated safety valve. Do not alter the set pressure if the system is stable. With the above procedure of setting pressure we have the maximum valve opening possible on any and all individual soot blower operating heads which reduces valve maintenance. We have the minimum steam pressure on packing, also reducing maintenance. We have a more flexible system in that, if loads are increased or inferior fuels are used for shorter periods where higher blowing pressures are required, one single adjustment can be made at the pressure reducing valve rather than changing and gauging all individual units. When the emergency is past, the original pressures can be restored again with one adjustment at the pressure reducing valve. If there are questions or if difficulties should arise in following this procedure, please contact us for further advice and counsel. Do not set pressure reducing valve supplied systems at 600 psi and reduce blowing pressures with orifices and individual head linkage adjustment. 3.7



Blowing Pressures



When new jobs are commissioned or started up, we can , based on past experience with the type of fuels, firing, boilers and equipment involved, recommend blowing pressures for trial or starting. An operating period then dictates if pressures and operating frequency should be changed.



Pressure Adjustment In Long Retract Observation while the boiler is in operation and inspections at outages are always necessary to see that cleaning is adequate and that tube damage does not result. In order to evaluate either cleaning problems or tube erosion and determine corrective steps to be taken, down steam blowing pressures should be gauged and tabulated along with the operating frequency of the units. Pressure, nozzle size, nozzle angle, drainage of condensate and frequency of operation items that should be reviewed and checked relative to cleaning and erosion conditions. We wish the customer to feel free to call on our service department for advice and counsel which will be based on our past experience in this type of work. 3.8



Inspections



Inspections of all tube surfaces at any scheduled outage, are essential to determine tube damage and cleaning. Wall blower inspection is difficult and costly because of the need of scaffolds or bosunchair, nonetheless inspection is necessary because of the fact that they are hard to see and check while in operation. 8 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 4 - 44



We recommend that inspection be made at every scheduled outage of sufficient length to permit installing a bosunchair or scaffold. We also recommend that inspection be made of all the tube surfaces at each blower location as soon as the boiler is cool enough to enter and before any hand cleaning is accomplished. This early inspection gives true picture of the deposits before they are disturbed and also permits repair during the scheduled outage.



4. SOOT BLOWER CHECK LIST AND RECOMMENDED START-UP PROCEDURE 4.1



Blowing Medium Supply System



(i)



Steam System



(ii)



(a)



Check expansion loops for thermal expansion provision.



(b)



Check for slope or pitch for drainage as called for on drawings.



(c)



Condensate discharge from trap should be led to atmospheric pressure.



(d)



Condensate drain should slope down and away from trap for gravity drain.



Both Air and Steam Systems (a)



Check provisions for boiler expansion Expansion loops provided on steam system Flexible couplings or expansion loops on air system.



(b)



Pipe Hangers Sufficient in number Properly located to eliminate any pipe strain on soot blower inlet flange when system is in hot operating position.



(c)



Blow down either system completely On “Candelabrum” or gradually rising header and branch line systems, it is recommended that all branch lines be blown before inlet flanges of soot blower operating heads are made up. On properly designed drain systems having a drain connected to each operating head, blowing down of construction debris and cleaning lines can be limited to blow down of drain lines and condensate reservoir immediately preceding the drain valve.



(d)



Drains All drain lines must be blown down before final welding in of the drain valve proper. The thermometer or thermocouple should be checked for goodworking conditions.



4.2



Suggested Operation Procedure



(i)



The frequency of soot blower operation depends on the operting conditions, status of the boiler and boiler cleanliness. Some things which may indicate the need for cleaning are; increase in boiler exit gas termperature, decrease in boiler gas flow (assuming constant boiler load) and visual inspection.



(ii)



It is important when starting up a boiler that the soot blowers be used frequently and soon after lighting off. Inefficient combustion in a boiler being started up may result 9 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 4 - 45



in abnormal deposits on the tubes. Unless they are removed frequently, furnace explosions or puffs may result later. It is usually also desirable to use the soot blowers just before taking a boiler out of service. (iii)



When using the soot blowers for the first time, it is advisable to increase the furnace draft as much as possible during the blowing cycle. After several blowing cycles, it will be possible to tell how much the furnace draft shoud be increased for blowing. The furnace draft can be increased by opening the boiler outlet damper wider, in creasing the induced draft fan speed, or opening the induced draft fan damper wider. No increase in forced draft is recommended.



(iv)



When the soot blowers are not being used, the main steam supply valve should always be closed tightly and the drain valves opened wide. The motor equipment for electrically driven blowers is housed in suitable enclosures. For all blowers it is necessary to make the power and control connections from the motor control centres and panel to each blower. There is usually a local starting button for each blower as well as a remote button on the control panel. These buttons are indicated on the wiring diagrams. Suggested Procedures



(v) (a)



Assure that power is available at the proper voltage and frequency as specified on the application drawings.



(b)



Increase the furnace draft as described above.



(c)



For steam blowing systems, open all drain valves wide. If traps are used, be sure isolation valves are open and the by-ass valve is closed.



(d)



Open the main steam or air supply valve slowly until it is wide open. With steam blowing cycle, do not operate any blowers until all the piping has been warmed and drained. Then, if traps are not used, close the drain valve. The hole in the valve seat will serve to keep the lines drained. Never blow with wet steam.



(e)



Operate the blowers in the numerical sequence shown on the general arrangement drawing. There is a panel “start” push button for each blower. The buttons may be included in the automatic sequential operation; they may be individual (buttons for manual operation) therefore, one button must be used to start each blower. Each button should be held in about 5 seconds and then released. The blower will start operating, complete the cycle and this will be indicated in the panel; start the next blower after this blower operation is over.

(f)



Operate each blower in sequence, each may be operated as many times as necessary to clean. (Note: Allow a cooling period of 1 hr. before subsequent operaion of the same blower) NEVER ALLOW A BLOWER TO BLOW UNLESS THE NOZZLE IS ROTATING.



(g)



When the entire blowing cycle is complete, close the main stop valve tightly. Open the drain valves wide if they are closed.



(h)



Adjust the furnace draft to Normal.



(i)



Open the power and control circuit.



(j)



Be sure all blowers have completely retracted and all heads are fully closed.



5. SOOT BLOWER MAINTENANCE 5.1.



Soot blowing, once considered a necessary evil, has become a positive necessity on modern coal and oil-fired boilers. Fuel costs are rising, and heat value per pound of fuel seems to be decreasing. Ash, sulphur and low-fusion-temperature slags cause more trouble with lower Bth. U fuels and demand dependable soot blower operation.



Many cost-conscious engineers are now setting up suitable maintenance programme on soot blowers, and since peculiarities of each boiler plant usually require a programme tailor-made for each plant, it is advisable to enlist the aid of the manufacturer’s field-service engineers in setting up a specific programme. However, the following paragraphs will help to bring light the more important things to be considered. The factors that may cause, or contribute to tube cutting are: (i)



Excessive pressure causing excessive nozzle or jet velocity.



(ii)



Abrasive dust from baffles and sheaves adjacent to blowers entrained in the blowing jet.



(iii)



Condensate in steam, or water in air, whichever is used as the blowing medium.



(iv)



In air heaters or economizers where dew points may be low or boiler gases highly corrosive tube metal may be rusted or eaten away, especially where any condensate or drops of water from blower elements may be deposited on tube surfaces. These rust scales are removed when blowers are operated, thus exposing new metal and the cycle continues until tube failure occurs.



To check tube erosion (a)



Observe, report and record any tube erosion, cutting or polishing that is evident in the slightest degree. The permanent record will help determine on future inspections whether the condition has been corrected.



(b)



Blowing pressures may be reduced on some equipment by adjusting the valve screw, on other equipment by adjustable orifices in still other equipment by a permanent orifice in the line. Manufacturer’s service instructions will indicate the proper procedure. No higher pressure should be used than that needed to clean the boiler. This decreases tube erosion and prevents excessive use of steam or air, thus aiding economy.



(c)



Follow the instructions given under individual blowers.



5.2



External Inspection



(i)



Make sure valve mountings or head supports are secure. Loose mounting permits head and element to move in and out of the wall sleeve, undoing all the careful internal alignment. 11 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 4 - 47



(ii)



Check the operating head and valve to make sure it is functioning properly, mechanically and that it can rotate without undue binding.



(iii)



See that mechanical parts are clean and free from rust. Dirt and rust act as an abrasive, causing moving parts to wear.



(iv)



Remove immediately any and all water pockets in the supply piping system. PROPER DRAINING OF PIPING IS OF PRIME IMPORTANCE. When the blowing medium is steam the supply pipe should have an independent direct connection to the boiler drum, to obtain the direct possible steam at maximum pressure. Stem supply piping should be insulated for safety, and to reduce condensate in the soot blowing system.



(v)



Make sure piping connections to soot blowers are flexible enough that no leakage to abnormal stresses will develop. Proper hangers should be provided for the pipe. Pipe risers should never depend on the soot blower head for any support. This always causes binding when the unit is operated.



(vi)



If condensate traps are used on steam systems, dis-assemble them and clean the screens during outages to make sure they operate properly.If a drain valve with 4mm hole in the seat be used instead of a trap, make sure it is in place and in operating condition.



(vii)



Make sure condensate is drained to atmosphere. If drains are led to blow-down tanks, check valves should be used. If drain systems are connected in series to two or more boilers, check valves should be used to prevent steam from backing up on unused equipment.



5.3



Maintenance



Things listed so far have been inspection points to check during boiler outages. There are other points that can be checked while the boiler is in service. (i)



Operation personnel should be instructed to report immediately to the maintenance personnel any difficulty encountered in operating.



(ii)



Competent maintenance personnel should be required to follow and observe each and every soot blower through its operating cycle on certain definite dates. These inspection periods should be bi-weekly or monthly, depending on the size and importance of the soot blower installation to proper boiler operation.



(iii)



All steam leaks should be corrected immediately.



(iv)



All valves should seat tightly to prevent wire drawing.



(v)



All packing glands should be drawn just tight enough to prevent leakage without binding or breaking down packing fibre by excessive pressure.



(vi)



All cams and moving parts should be cleaned and properly lubricated.



(vii)



Gear boxes should be filled to proper levels with correct gear oils or grease. Greases should be checked regularly to see if they have hardened or separated from their bases because of high ambient temperatures. On outdoor installations, they should be checked when temperatures drop to see if hardening or channelling occurs.



(viii)



Lubrications in air lines to air motors should be checked at least once a week to make sure oil reservoirs are full and feed is correct.



(ix)



With electric motors, insulation, brushes and commutators should be clean and free from oils. General rules for care of electrical equipment and industrial controls should be followed. 12 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 4 - 48



(x)



Where drive chains are used, the chain should be kept as dry as possible.Only enough oil to prevent rust should be applied. Excess oil picks up fly ash and grit to form a cutting abrasive between link connections.



(xi)



With any lubricants, manufacturer’s specifications for correct types, amounts and frequency of application should be closely followed.



5.4



Preparing for outages



Where boilers are subject to extended outages, as in heating plants, maintenance can be reduced by giving proper attention to the equipment before and during the down period. (i)



Moving cams, etc., should be well coated with rust-preventive lubricants.



(ii)



Mechanical units should be covered with canvas, oil cloth or paper for protection against moisture or excessive dust.



(iii)



If operating valves or pistons have rings or parts not made of rust-resistant alloys these parts should be removed. They can be protected by a rust inhibitor by a rust inhibitor or stored until the equipment is required.



(iv)



Where feed lines or telescope tubes are of carbon steel, the units should be extended and rust preventive applied to these parts.



(v)



Inspections and repairs should be made immediately when the boiler is shut down to assure proper operation when the boiler is put back into service.



Care, adjustment and maintenance of automatic control, panels for automatic-sequentital systems are properly entrusted to the instrument personnel. Such systems usually require little care after being placed in service, except to keep all parts thoroughly clean. Generally speaking, they require the same maintenance as any industrial control system except that the loads on relays, indicator lamps and switches are comparatively light, therefore, requiring less attention. Little maintenance trouble is met, if this equipment is kept clean and free from dust and oil. 5.5



Operation



Correct operating procedure will help to minimize maintenance problems. These are important check points. (i)



Drain valve should be fully open, and supply valve opened slowly, during warm-up period. Drain valve should not be closed until the steam leaving the drain is absolutely dry. Drain valves should remain open when units are not operated. These precautions prevent condensate from entering elements to warp or distort them.



(ii)



Rotation of elements should be slow, even and continuous from the time steam flow starts until it is shut off. Should the automatic valve-in-head unit fail to shut off, the entire system should be shut down immediately, and the offending unit be corrected or blanked off before proceeding with the other units in the cleaning cycle. To proceed with the other units after one operating head has failed to shut off would cause tube damage. In addition, there would be reduced blowing pressures to the other elements which would prevent proper boiler cleaning.



(iii)



All units should be kept in operating condition as far as possible. Loss of one unit could cause plugging and thus divert hot gases over an adjacent unit to destroy that element.



(iv)



Blowers should be operated in proper sequence along the gas flow lanes with dampers fully open. This moves soot out, rather than blowing it from one place to another. 13 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 4 - 49



Boiler load should be ¾ to full, if possible to prevent puffs or possible explosions. (v)



Blowers should be operated at proper intervals to reduce temperatures and prevent loss of elements and nozzles. Operating intervals should not be set for certain hours of the day or shift, unless the boiler steams vary evenly and neither soot nor slag conditions are of much concern. Blowing intervals should be adjusted to load, firing and fuel conditions. The guiding rule is that flue gas temperature should not rise more then 20 Deg. C between soot blower operating periods.



Soot blowers should also be operated after any abnormal fuel burner operation resulting in heavy smoke while burning oil. This is especially true if there is an economiser or air heater. Soot blowers are expected to clean efficiently and safely. They are intended to operate on low power and labour cost, and to give long life with minimum maintenance expense. This is possible, even if the equipment be subjected to high temperatures and adverse operating conditions. Soot blowing engineering takes these points into consideration and uses the highest possible engineering standard in design and construction. As a result, blower equipment properly installed and cared for is as trouble-free as possible. To maintain this standard of operation requires only a regular programme of inspection and preventive maintenance.

VALVE SEAT GRINDING FOR SOOT BLOWER VALVE HEADS 8.1.



Caution



DO NOT re-grind seats unless absolutely necessary. Every attempt should be made to lap seat and valve into condition without using the re-grinding tool. Only when the normal valve grinding procedure with valve grinding compounds does not remove cuts and wire drawing from the seating surfaces should be grinding tool be resorted to. DO grind very lightly. When the grinding tool is employed only sufficient grinding should be done to remove imperfections. Removing hard stellite face unnecessarily is wasteful and time consuming. DO maintain a 210 angle on the fixed seat in the main body and 19-1/20 angle on valve disc of the valve assembly. It is permissible to be off a few minutes from these angles on both seating surfaces. We endeavour to maintain full width contact for greater life expectancy. This is desirable rather than the “ring” contact which would be present with different angles on the matching seats. The “ring” contact seal cuts through and starts to leak in a relatively short time. 8.2



Disassembly of Operating Heads



All valve heads are stripped down whether removed or still in place on the unit. The valve disc and all packings are removed. The packing gland remains in place. Where packing glands show wear at the valve stem guide area or are to be replaced for any reason, the replacement should be made before re-seating is done. The packing gland is used as a guide for the pilot and the stone sleeve in the re-seating procedure. The packing gland must therefore remain in place after grinding to insure concentricity of the operating parts when the unit is re-assembled. 8.3



Test Checking Valve and Seat



Immediately after dis-assembly an examination of the parts should be made to see that they are not fractured or broken beyond repair that would require replacement. The seating surfaces are then checked. Cracked seat surface in the valve body may require re-stelliting. This is not a recommended field procedure. The valve body with packing gland and valve stem assembly should be returned to our plant for re-stelliting and grinding in the valve. The valve stem assembly may be craked or the valve stem worn or scored requiring replacement. The packing gland may be worn in the valve stem guide area and require replacing. When the body with the final packing gland in place is available the valve assembly is then lapped with fine valve grinding compound. The valve grinding compound should be the water mixed automotive type. The procedure for lapping the valve is comparable to automotive valve grinding using the screwdriver slot in the top of the valve disc to rotate the valve with compound on the seat surface. This light test lapping will indicate the extent of wire drawing, cuts or imperfections in the seating surfaces. From this test lapping, it can be determined if heavy grinding compounds and continued hand grinding with fine lapping compounds used in turn will correct the surfaces or if it will be necessary to resort to the more drastic valve re-grinding. 22 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 4 - 58



8.4



Dressing the Grinding Stone



The stone is installed on the stone sleeve by turning the threaded end of the sleeve into the threaded bushing in the stone. The stone on the sleeve is then installed on the lightly oiled upright stem of the grinder. The sleeve and stone assembly is then rotated with the driver.



Valve Seat Grinding Tool set 1.Drive RPM of Drive Shaft = 12000 4. Stone Sleeve 2.valve Body



5. Stone (Norton ME 105420 or Equivalent)



3.Pilot The cutting angle of the diamond point “dresser” should be set on the angle indicator to 210. The dressing of the stone should be with very slow feeds of the micrometer adjustment in the diamond feed screw to avoid waste and damage to the stone. 8.5



The Pilot



The pilot is then installed in the soot blower head from the stuffing box side. Pilot “plug” should enter and fit snugly in the packing box of the packing gland in order to insure concentricity of the newly made seat with the guide of the packing gland. 8.6



The Stone Sleeve and Stone Assembly



The sleeve and stone assembly is then inserted in the operating head from the opposite side of the packing gland. The stem on the pilot entering into the sleeve should be lightly oiled. A minimum amount of oil should be used to avoid oil loading of the grinding stone. 8.7



The Driver



The driving head is then fitted into the sleeve. The stone should be off the seat and ride on the pilot stem only as driver is started. The driver with sleeve and stone assembly is advanced slowly until the seat surface is contacted only very lightly. The driver is then withdrawn very slowly. Cutting on these seats is extremely rapid because of the angle, therefore, we repeat, proceed slowly in removing metal. A slight check after the first touch will indicate if additional grinding is required. 8.8



Valve Stem Assembly



The valve disc of the valve stem assembly may be cut or wire drawn with marks too deep to remove by compounds and hand work. These assemblies can be dressed to the 20 Deg. with a grinder in a lathe or a regular automotive valve grinder. Extreme care should be exercised where the disc seating surface of the valve stem assembly is ground or refinished that excessive metal is not removed. 23 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 4 - 59



Never more than a total of 0.25mm should be removed from the face of the disc on the valve stem assembly as it is received from the factory. Removing excessive metal by this grinding of the disc on the valve stem assembly will reduce the diameter and thin the seating wall of the valve disc permitting it to be driven through the fixed seat. This is not dangerous to personnel but does impose a more expensive maintenance problem. We recommend replacement of the valve stem assembly when the seat surface is damaged. 8.9



Check for Mating Seat Angle



When both seating surfaces have been regrouped the mating angles can be checked by the use of Prussian Blue. With blue applied to the seating surface a light turn of the valve assembly will indicate not only imperfections but will determine if the angles of both seat and valve are identical in the lapped area. The fixed seat in the body should show full width contact on the valve disc rather than “ring” contact. If “ring” contact is apparent the angle on the grinding stone may require a slight correction in the “dressing” angle. 8.10



Re-dressing the Grinding Stone



The grinding stone should not be permitted to develop a ring or groove between ‘dressing. The side angle of the stone should remain straight and flat. “Dressing” is also essential to prevent oil carbon loading. 8.11



Lapping after Grinding



When seats have been reground the valve should be hand lapped with very fine lapping compound. This procedure again is very very light. Only sufficient pressure is applied with a very few turns so that a fine “frosted” surface appears on the newly polished ground parts. Actually this lapping procedure should be more of a check to see that surfaces properly made on both parts. Figures show a hand tool suggested for this purpose. 8.12



Re-Assembly



The re-assembly of the operating head is of course in the reverse order of dis-assembly. Where the operating heads are rotary soot blower, heads, care should be exercised when the head is reinstalled that element flange is registered properly on the operating head. If some marks or care is exercised in this respect it will save resetting the blowing cams in order to correct the blowing arc. Blowing arcs should be double checked on all rotaries after replacement to avoid cutting tube destroying baffles or inducing improper cleaning that would be encountered if the blowing arc were established in the improper segment or if the element is improperly moved end ways. Note: We recommend that the SB valve assembly to be sent to the factory for re-conditioning rather than the customer trying to recondition the valve since special care should be taken in repairing this valve.



9.



RECOMMENDED PROCEDURE FOR PACKING INSTALLATION The useful life of packing is dependent on the method of installation. Poor installation can cause the best packing to fail prematurely. The methods in this procedure, if followed, will lead to better sealing and longer life. These packing method apply both to installing packing in new equipment and replacing packing in equipment that is in service.



24 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 4 - 60



9.1



Installation method



Clean out the old packing. Flexible packing hooks are available for removing the packing. Inspect the feed pipe stem for wear or damage. Remove any raised metal that projects above the normal surface. Do not try to file out depressions or scratches. Raised metal will tear packing. Any reworking of scratches will only worsen the condition. Keep the new packing clean during installation. Grit or other hard foreign matter that is installed with the packing may score the feed pipe causing an early failure of the packing. Install all packing rings so that the joints are staggered and kept approximately 90 Deg. apart. Spot the joints in clockwise direction to facilitate locating them when removing the packing. 9.2



Install the rings one at a time



Each ring must be set firmly into place with either the gland or a tamping tool as shown in figure. After each ring is installed, the ring must be compressed with approximately the same force that it will have with the final gland force. Each ring should be equally compressed when the entire set is installed. If this is not done, only the last ring will do the sealing and will wear quickly.



Install each ring as per the figure. Bevelled packing is to be installed with the bevel lip on the shaft pointing toward the pressure. One end of the tamping tool is angled for bevelled packing. Fit the bevel on the packing to the bevel on the tool see figure. Oil or grease may be applied to the outside of braided asbestor packing to help in installing it in the stuffing box. Tighten the gland follower, sufficiently tight, after the packing has been installed to insure final seating of the packing. The nuts should be backed off two or three turns to relieve excessive pressure. Adjust packing to operating conditions. Allow packing to leak a small amount, if possible, when starting newly packed equipment. Tighten the gland slowly as the packing seats. Do not be afraid to let packing leak a small amount. It is good assurance that packing is not too tight and the liquid usually has some lubricating qualities. When renewing packing, use all new clean packing. Worn packings are dry, highly compressed, have high friction and may develop scoring. Remember packing is relatively cheap. Labour and materials necessary to replace worn feed pipes are expensive and critical commodities. The most expensive seal is a seal that fails. Light gland pressure should be maintained at all times. Too much pressure will cause binding, scoring of the shaft and force the lubricant out the packing. Too little gland pressure will allow excessive leakage and washing out of the packing. When the packing has been compressed to less than ¾ of its original height, it should be replaced. The loss of height in packing may indicate a loss of essential lubricant.

Packing



Keep packing glands just tight enough to prevent leakage : Do not overtighten them. Replace packing that leaks excessively. Refer to instruction ‘Recommended Procedure for Packing Installation’.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR STORAGE All the Soot Blowers, though designed for outdoor applications, require special care during storage before erection and commissioning. These instructions may please be taken seriously to avoid costly replacements or breakdowns at a later date. (i)



On receipt of the Soot Blowers, carefully check for any damage of the components. List out the damaged components with reference to the item no. in the concerned assembly drawings to BHEL, Tiruchirapalli for further action.



(ii)



See the Soot Blower assemblies are shipped completely covered with waterproof coverings. Unless the blowers are taken for immediate erection please do not disturb the coverings. Coverings are to be replaced wherever damaged.



(iii) Some assemblies like Wall Deslaggers and Rotary heads are shipped with temporary wooden platforms to prevent parts getting damaged during erection. These need not be removed till the blowers are erected. 26 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 4 - 62



(iv) All the electrical items are to be covered with waterproof and dust proof coverings. Nozzle and valve openings are shipped covered. This may be checked and covered wherever necessary. (v)



Normally storage under covered roof is not necessary for Soot Blowers when the waterproof covers are not removed. Wall Deslaggers and Rotary Soot Blower heads can be stored under covered roof if the interval between Soot Blower erection and receipt is more than two months.



(vi) Always use the lifting lugs or hooks provided to avoid damage to the connected parts. Similarly avoid hitting the assembly against structures or other boiler components while the Soot Blowers are being lifted. (vii) The above instructions are for guidelines only and the concerned persons may use their own discretion’s knowing well that these are electro-mechanical components.

INTRODUCTION The coal fired boilers demand the maximum in effective Furnace wall slag control. Effective deslagging entails- high striking power combined with barest minimum “dead time” between blowings. WBIE Wall Deslagger is designed to efficiently meet these needs. No soot blower system will operate satisfactorily if it is not properly installed, operated and maintained. It must be recognised that no amount of written instructions can replace intelligent thinking and reasoning on the part of the operators, especially when coping with unforeseen operating conditions. It is the operator’s responsibility to become thoroughly familiar not only with the equipment but also with all pertinent control equipment. The instruction gives the general description of the wall deslagger and its installation procedures. Details of the, adjustments of blowing speed, valve stroke and nozzle are outlined. The operation, maintenance and lubrication details are also given. The contents in the manual have been compiled and checked by experts in the field. Every possible care has been taken to ensure the contents are accurate. However, it must be understood that the manual is not a contract document. If you ever have any query about operation, maintenance or related problems, you are welcome to write to us without obligation. BHARAT HEAVY ELECTRICALS LTD. BOILER PLANT - TIRUCHIRAPPALLI.

DESCRIPTION 1.1



Wall Deslagger Basic Assy. (Ref. DRg. 0-00-073-60026)



The deslagger consists of a stationary body (item 10) and rack gear housing (item 2) and a rotary gear box assy. (item 3) to which the swivel tube assy. (item 5) is attached. The swivel tube assy, is supported by Bushing (item 17) at each end of the body casting. The horizontal guide rods (item No. 09 of Drg. No. 1- 00-073-60109) are used to assure proper alignment of the relay gear box assy. A stationary electric motor (item 59) is situated on the right side of the. blower. This motor, through a Rack gear housing Assy. operates a pinion which drives a horizontal rack assembly, (item 11) the outer end of which is fastened to the rotary gear box Assy. (item 3). When the Rotary gear box approaches the fully extended position a ramp cam (item 2) attached to the free end of the rack (item No. 01, 3-00-073-60106) contacts a bearing surface, which is a part of the clevis bracket Assy. (item 6) and pushes the valve stem assy. (item No.02 of drg. No. 1-00-073-60003), admitting the steam to the swivel tube. When the blower is started the rack pinion moves the rack (item 11) and rotary gear box towards the boiler. Operation of the Rack gear housing causes rotation of a shaft extending out -from the rack gear housing into a switch box Refer Drg. No. 0-00-073-60027. Located in this switch box are two cam actuated limit switches. One cam holds limit switch LSTE in the open position when the blower is fully retracted. Extending of the blower moves the cam allowing LSTE to close. The blower is then under its own control. Near the fully - extended position, the ramp cam strikes the lever that open the SBV head valve. The second limit switch cam strikes the LSTS limit switch, which opens the circuit to the traverse motor (item No. 59) and closes the circuit to the rotary motor (item 60). The rotary motor is attached to the rotary gear box assy. When LSTS closes, the motor rotates the swivel tube through a gear train. When the blowing sweep is finished the cam assy. (item 7) on the swivel tube contacts and rotates the arm on the limit switch LSTR. The traverse motor begins to retract the blower. Near the fully retracted position the cam again opens the switch LSTE to haet the blower. 6 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 5 - 69



CAUTION : Care should be exercised when operating the WB-IE with its guard assy. (item 9)and its holding nuts (item 30) removed. If, for any reason, the stop limit switch. (LSTE) is not actuated during the retract portion of the operating cycle, it is possible for the rotary gear box to overtravel and drop off the end of the guide rods. If the rack should come free of the gear rack pinion drive, the cams for the limit switches will require resetting. The end of the worm shaft (item 7 Drg.No. 1-00-073-60109) is slotted so that a hand crank can be inserted to allow manual operation of the blower. Be sure the power circuits are deenergized before using this crank. 1.2



INSTALLATION



i.



Wall Deslagger Sleeves A wall blower is supported by four studs attached to the flange of a sleeve or wall box inserted in the boiler wall.



ii.



For steel - cased wall: Install sleeve as shown on application drawing. Be sure elevation and vertical location are exactly as shown in the relevant contract drawing.



Sleeves are usual ly attached to waterwall tubes to maintain proper distance between the fully extended nozzles and the tube surfaces. Application drawings show how to allow for movement of a sleeve relative to the boiler wall. Cut the proper size hole in the casing panel or plate. With sleeve and panel or plate positioned, build wall around it as shown in the drawing. If the sleeve flange is shown welded to the panel or plate, tack welds will be sufficient if they are one inch apart on each of the four sides iii.



Erecting the Soot Blower



With sleeve properly installed, lift the blower into position. Make sure there are no obstructions in the path of the rotary gear box. Slide blower forward, so that the four M20 studs on the sleeve flange fit into the four holes on the boiler end of the blower body. Screw one jam nut tightly against each side of each hole to give the blower firm’ support. Unless otherwise specified on the job drawings, no other support is needed. iv.



Adjusting the Blower Position



The blower must be positioned so the relationship between the fully extended nozzle and the boiler wall (or the waterwall tubes) is correct. In the absence of a specific dimension on the drawings, set the centre line of the back nozzle 38 mm from the face of the wall tubes. Adjust the blower in or out of the boiler by turning the stud nuts on the sleeve plate. To check the location of the nozzle, the swivel tube and nozzle should be extended fully into the boiler. The blower is completely assembled and if clear, is ready to operate once the power has been connected properly. For directions on making the electrical connections and setting switches, see the instructions below. Before extending the swivel tube and nozzle, make sure there are no obstructions in the path of the rotary gear box. V.



Erection of Piping



When the piping is erected, great care should be taken to make up the inlet flanged joint properly. No piping should be supported by the blower. 7 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 5 - 70



Proper piping supports and guides should be used to prevent piping strain. When the companion flange is attached to the pipe correctly and the gasket is intalled, the flange should match property. Then add the flanges, studs and nuts. When the nuts and studs are removed, the flanges should not spring apart or to either side, nor should the pipe exert an upward force on the head. Whenver wall boxes are attached to waterwall tubes (as is usually the case) the blower will move with the tubes when the boiler expands and contracts. All piping and electrical connections should be sufficiently flexible and have expansion loops, etc., to allow for this movement and prevent severe strains from being exerted on the blower. Refer to the application drawings for the amount and direction of any movement of the blower. CAUTION : Switch Box Assy. Refer Drg. 0-00-073-60027 When adjusting limit switches, power to the unit must be turned off to avoid injury of the operator. Operation of the unit should be by means of the hand crank (item 11) provided. The operation of the deslagger is controlled by three limit switches. Two of these (LSTE & LSTS) are located inside the switch Box enclosure, mounted on the right side of the blower. The thi rd switch (LSTR) is situated below the swivel tube and is operated by a split cam (item 9) on the tube. The setting of switches LSTE and LSTS are shown in the drawing referred above. The cams operating the switches are set at the factory. Minor adjustment may be necessary. The inner cam operates the LSTS switch, which starts the rotary motor. Ensure the Rotary gear box stops 3 to 8 mm before the guide bar bush ( without ramming against the boss). The outer cam operates stop switch LSTE and must be set to trip LSTE, and hold it open when the gear box is 8 to 10 mm from the fully retracted or park position. When first operating the blower, check this carefully. It must be so set to allow for drift after motor is shut off. The inner switch cam for LSTS, must be set to trip the switch when the travelling gear box is in between 3-6 mm from the fully extended position. This also should be checked when running the blower for the first time. Since packing friction affects the amount of drift, care must be taken to avoid ramming the rotary gear box against the stops in either directions. vi.



Electric Connections WIRING DIAGRAMS: Refer Drg. 3-00-073-60006



The electrical connections can now be made as shown on the application drawings. For Blowers with integral terminal box, all wiring connections are made to the terminal box. For blowers without integral terminal boxes all connections are still made to one point - the small cast box on the top of the blower. The number of connections to be made are shown on the wiring diagrams. Before operating any blower, make sure the drain holes in the motor frames point downward and are open. Add the proper quantity of oil to the two gear boxes (rotary and traversing) and assure that the vents point up and are open.

Adjustment of Blowing Sweep



The sweep of some wall blowers is restricted because of their proximity to corners or burners. Refer to the application drawings to determine sweep. It is important that the sweep be set as closely as possible to that shown on the application drawings, otherwise damage to the boiler may result. The nozzle opening position is indicated by a mark on the swivel tube or by the key slot in the swivel tube which can be seen by, removing the guard and the nut and washer at the end of the swivel tube. To adjust the sweep, remove the sheet metal guard. If it is convenient to operate the blower with electrical power use the “local start” push button station. The swivel tube and rotary gear box extend rapidly; be sure there are no obstructions in the path of the rotary gear box. To stop the swivel tube rotation and retract the tube and gear box, rotate the lever on the reverse limit switch operated by the split cam on the swivel tube. This will retract the blower rapidly. Make sure there are no obstructions in the path of the rotary gear box On standard wall blowers there is one stop collar or split cam on the swivel tube, (item 7) adjacent to the rotary gear box (item 3). This collar contacts the lever of the reverse limit switch to retract the blower at the end of its sweep. On wall blowers with restricted sweeps there are two cams. One cam contacts the limit switch to reverse the swivel tube at the end of the sweep, while the other retracts the swivel tube and rotary gear box at the end of the blowing sweep. Loosen the set screws in these cams and assure that they are loose on the swivel tube before adjusting the sweep. To adjust the sweep, start the blower and allow the swivel tube to rotate until it is in the proper position for the end of the blowing sweep. Retract the swivel tube, using the reverse limit switch. Set the reverse limit switch stop collar so that the side of the collar will just contact the side of the reverse limit switch lever. Tighten the setscrew. With all adjustments completed, operate the blower and check the sweep for correctness, preferably from inside the boiler. Replace the guard (item 9). 9 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 5 - 72

Valve Stroke Adjustment



SBV HEAD ASSY: Refer Drg. 1-00-073-60003 The SBV head allows the blowing pressure of the blower to be adjusted by limiting the stroke of the head valve. Where it is necessary to reduce pressure greatly, a fixed orifice may be installed in the head inlet flanges. The stroke of the head valve is governed by adjustment of the drive screw which contacts the head valve stem. In the closed position, a minimum clearance of 1 mm must be maintained between adjusting screw and valve stem, to assure tight valve seating. In general, slag removal will necessitate blowing pressure of 10-14 kg/sq cm. Soot and fly ash will need 10-18 kg/sq cm and dust removal pressure may be as low as 7 kg/sq cm. Always consult the General Arrangement Drawing for recommended blowing pressure. The stroke of the head valve is governed by adjustment of the drive screw which contacts the head valve stem. Maximum stroke of the valve is 14.5 mm. If this maximum stroke is desired adjust the valve drive screw so the screw begins to depress the valve stem when the pad on the rotary gear box is 38 mm from the rack housing pad. When these two pads touch, the rotary gear box is fully extended. Extending the screw through the lever increase valve opening and blowing pressure. In the closed position, a minimum clearance of 0.8 mm must be maintained between the drive screw and the valve stem, to assure tight valve seating. When proper pressure has been established, by gauge reading, lock the drive screw in place with lock nut. iii.



Nozzle Adjustment



Nozzle alignment should be made from inside the furnace, referencing the centreline of the nozzle and wall tube surface, with the nozzle opening parallel to the wall tubes. If the units are set from outside the boiler, they should be checked inside at the first opportunity. After the unit is installed, it should be checked to make sure that it is perpendicular with the boiler wall, to insure cleaning through the full blowing arc. The sweep should then be set, if possible, so that the nozzle is pointing down or in the 6 O’clock position, when the head opens. This helps to prevent tube cutting from condensate since the nozzle blows parallel with the tube when the head first opens and condensate is blown off before the jet sweeps across tubes.



3.



START UP CHECKS For detailed Start up checks



4.



a.



Check the blower numbers and their location.



b.



Check the perpendicularity of the wall sleeve with reference to water wall



c.



Check the mounting of the blower for perpendicularity to the water wall.



d.



Ensure the nozzle projection inside the boiler. (Normally the nozzle centre line should be 38 mm from water tube).



e.



Check the free manual movement.



f.



Check whether all the blowers are in the initial position.



OPERATION When just putting the blower into service, start it locally so that the operation of all parts can be observed. It is advisable to check the blowing pressure, using an auxiliary gauge. Start the 10 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 5 - 73



unit and observe to confirm that the blowing steam comes on at the proper time. If not, hand operate the blower reversing switch LSTR. If the boiler is in operation do not allow the blower extended for any length of time as the swivel tube may get damaged. If the valve head has failed to open, retract the blower before examining the head. There is a panel start push button for each blower. Each button should be held in about three seconds, then released. The blower then extends, open the head, completes a blowing cycle, closes the head and retracts. Operate each Push button once for each blowing cycle.

MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION 1.



General



Soot blowers, nozzles and swivel tubes are continuously subjected to high temperatures and dirty atmosphere. Therefore, proper maintenance is necessary to keep this equipment as trouble - free as possible. To assure efficient operation and long life, attention must be given to the item below a.



Cleanliness



To assure long life and good performance of soot blowers, the outer surfaces should be cleaned of dirt and rust periodically. If allowed to accumulate, dirt and rust will enter the operating mechanism, prevent proper operation and cause excessive wear on moving parts. If a blower is not to be used for appreciable time, coat all exposed surfaces with a good grade of grease. b.



Equipment Inspection



A regular check, at least every six months should be made for wall deslaggers while the boiler is on service to ensure that the wall blowers remain perpendicular to the boiler wall. Pipe strain and boiler movement can after the position of these units in such a manner that, the swivel tube is not perpendicular to the surfaces of the wall being cleaned. This check is necessary to prevent tube erosion and it can be made visually or by placing a spirit level on the rack of swivel tube. Correction is accomplished by adjusting the nuts on the studs of the wall box adaptor where the stud passes through wall deslagger steam chest mounting flange. Check the distance from the centre line nozzle to the surfaces to be cleaned. This distance should be given in arrangement drawing issued for the relevant contract. Normally the distance will be 38 mm. Mounting : Check the soot blower mounting periodically to make sure the blower is securely mounted and properly adjusted. The mounting position is adjusted by means of the stud nuts on the sleeve. Be sure each nut on each side, of the blower body flange is tight. Loose mounting 12 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 5 - 75



or improper adjustment may result in misdirection of the blowing medium and possible poor cleaning or boiler damage. Piping : Check the external piping periodically for leaks. Tighten fittings to stop leaks or replace faulty fittings and connections. Be sure the piping places no strain on any blower. Swivel Tube Nozzle : At every boiler outage an inspection should be made of each swivel tube nozzle. If a nozzle is split or cracked, it should be replaced. Blowing Sweep : Any blower with a sweep of less than 360 deg. should be checked periodically for adjustment. The sweep should be kept the same as that on the application drawings. It is also advisable to check adjacent boiler tubes and walls for any possible damage. ii.



Lubrication



a.



Rack Gear Box : Every six months remove the inspection plug and make an inspection for sufficient lubrication of the gears. Apply the lubricant directly to the gear box. Use 0.6 lit. of Servomesh 60 or equivalent poured through the inspection opening. The oil level plug is small brass pipe plug on the front of the box about 50 mm from the bottom.



b.



Rotary Gear Box : Every six months make an inspection for sufficient lubrication of the gears at the combination inspection and filler fitting. The lubricant is Servomesh 60 added through the combination filler and level elbow on the side of the box. For detailed lubrication instruction refer to “Lubrication Chart and “Recommended quantity of Lubricants per annum” in the publication No. 7501 : Soot Blower General Instructions.



iii.



Packing



See Recommended Procedure for Packing Installation in the Publication No. 7501 Soot Blower: General Instructions. iv.



Swivel Tube Removal



Removal of swivel tube will be necessary because of: a.



Cracked or damaged nozzle.



b.



Persistent steam leakage even with new packing set due to swivel tube surface defects.



In order to remove the swivel tube, the main guard (item 9 of Drg. 0-00-073-60026) and the rotary gear box are the only part that have to be removed. These two parts can be dismantled without distrubing the Wall Deslagger assembly or any other pressure parts. To dismantle the rotary gear box, the lock huts (item Nos.30,35 of Drg. No. 0-00-073-60026) fixing the rack and ~the swivel tube to the rotary gear box should be removed and then the gear box can be dismantled. After removing the rotary gear box the swivel tube assembly can be pulled out of the Wall Deslagger body. The limit switch cam assembly shall be removed so that it can be reused in the swivel tube assembly. The procedure has to be followed in the reverse order for the assembly of new swivel tube. For the Wall Deslagger with long extended swivel tube, the full assembly itself should be removed from the mounting sleeve. V.

INTRODUCTION The Furnace temperature probe installed in various power station installations is manufactured by BHEL with its Engineering know-how and the sum of the experience gained on many new installations in India. The BHEL Furnace probe gives the reach needed for a constant check on gas temperatures in critical boiler start-up phases and provide an extra measure of protection during periods when boiler equipment is subject to the most hazard. The temperature measurement system will function satisfactorily with a little attention to installation, operation and maintenance. It must be recognised that no amount of written instructions can replace intelligent thinking and reasoning on the part of the operators, especially when coping with unforeseen operating conditions. It is the operators responsibility to become thoroughly familiar not only with the equipment but also with all pertinent control equipment. The instruction contained in this manual is only an outline of the correct procedures for installation, operation and maintenance. The contents in the manual have been compiled and checked by experts in the field. Every possible care has been taken to ensure the contents are accurate. However, it must be understood that the manual is not a contract document. If you ever have any query about operation, maintenance or related problems you are welcome to write to us without obligation.



5 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 6 - 96



GENERAL This standard BHEL furnace probe is equipped with chromel alumel thermocouple installed in a lance tube. Air cooling for the lance tube is also available for special applications. Model FTP-IE for travels from 1.5 metre to 7.3 metre, has a 76mm O.D. lance. Model FTP-IIE for travels from 7.4 metre to 12.2 metre has a 108mm O.D. lance. In both the models, probes are available with or without air cooling. The probe may be operated in furnace gas temperature upto 537°C (100°F) and for very short period of time in gas temperature as high as 565° C (1050°F) without air cooling. The temperature probe can be used to measure furnace gas temperature upto max. 815°C (1500°F) with the lance cooled by air. This standard equipment will be limited to monitoring furnace temperatures upto, but not exceeding 815°C (1500°F) during boiler start-up. While using for temperature above 565°C (1050°F), air cooling of the lance probe must be used. Cooling air requirement for the temperature probe is determined by the diameter of the lance, length of travel and the temperature of the area in which the probe is expected to operate. Operators are requested to observe four important limiting factors in the operation of standard furnace temperature probes. i.



Never exceed 537°C (1000°F) without cooling air for continuous operation.



ii.



Never exceed 565°C (1050°F) for short intermittent periods without cooling air.



iii.



Never exceed 815°C (1500°F) with arrangement for cooling air.



iv.



Ensure availability of sufficient cooling air.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION 2.1



GENERAL



The BHEL Furnace temperature probe is an electro-mechanical equipment for positioning a thermocouple element in the furnace gas stream for temperature measurement. The thermocouple is fixed to the tip of a lance tube which travels into and out of the gas passage. The lance travels approximately two metres per minute while extending and retracting. The thermocouple can be retracted manually in case of emergency. Gas temperatures in the area just before the superheater elements at the exit of the furnace, can be critical during boiler start- up, before steam circulation for the cooling of the superheater/reheater tube material is sufficiently established. The furnace temperature probe, by permitting continuous measurement of the gas temperatures, helps to reduce the danger of heat damage to the tubes. For this reason, such probes are also known as basic start-up probes. The furnace temperature probe can also be used to obtain gas temperatures during the low load operation of the boiler. 2.2

The housing of the temperature probe is a pressed steel section and it covers all the moving parts. The lips are cut off from the outboard end to a distance of approximately 750 mm to facilitate removal of travelling carriage. Angle tracks are welding on either side of the casing to guide the travelling carriage. The rods are provided at the bottom to hold the open ends of the housing. At the front end a wall plate is welded on to the casing, to which the lance bearing assembly is fixed. The lance bearing assembly carries an hour glass shapped roller for supporting the lance tube and a plain cylindrical roller on top for guiding the lance. The mechanical stop for the carriage is also welded to the housing top in the front. The stop at the outboard end is adjustable and is provided in the side of the housing. The jack shaft bearing assembly which is fixed to the housing provides for the adjustment of the tension in the traversing chain.4 A cable carrier drag chain (Item No. 42/36 of Drg.No. 0-00-073- 60028 & 0-00-07360029 respectively) is attached with travelling carriage, by the driving end and the fixed end of the drag chain is connected with a mounting bracket assembly on the middle bottom of the housing. This drag chain is supported by the track covers hanging from the housing on both right and left side and guided by two angle plates on the bottom cover. The thermocouple lead wire is taken through the drag chain support plates and connected to the terminal head near the mounting bracket assembly. When provision for air cooling of the lance tube is made, an air hose is also taken through the support plates of drag chain from the mounting bracket assembly to the travelling carriage housing and it is connected with connectors at the both ends. A ball valve with pneumatic actuator and a solenoid valve is mounted near the mounting bracket assembly with a pressure switch. The hose pipe is connected to the outlet side of ball valve and inlet side is the customer air connection (7 Kg/Cm²(g)). Lifting eyes for sling attachment are welded to the side of the housing at convenient places, to facilitate lifting. The probe is supported at two places. The boiler end is supported in the wall box through two shoulder bolts which allow the probe to move when the wall moves. The outboard end again is hinged support and is fixed to the boiler structures.

POWER PACK ASSEMBLY (01 of assembly Drawing No. 0-00-073- 60004)



The main prime mover for the probe is a fractional horse power motor. A reduction gear box attached to the motor has an output speed of 9.2 rpm. The motor with the reducer is fixed on top of the housing at the front end. The reducer output shaft drives the jack shaft through a set of sprockets and an endless chain. The jack shaft transmits the rotary motion to a long chain for the entire length of the probe, the ends of which anchored to the travelling carriage, through another jack shaft and idler sprocket at the other end of the housing. The idler jack shaft is provided with adjusting screws for keeping the chain in the right tension. iii.



The Travelling Carriage. (Drg.No. 2-00-073-60092 and 2-00- 073-60098)



The travelling carriage of the probe is a cast iron housing to which the lance tube is bolted. The carriage assembly has two wheels which are guided by the inner side of the housing and the top of guide angles. Two rollers on the sides of the travelling carriage prevent the sideways movements. The travelling carriage guide rollers at the side also operate the arms of the terminal limit switches of the heavy duty type which are fixed to the sides of the housing. Removal of the travelling carriage assembly is achieved by unscrewing the removable portion of the angle guide track at the outboard end and slipping the assembly down carefully without causing damage to the thermocouple at the lance head. In case of air cooled temperature probe, the travelling carriage is made, up cast steel/Ductile iron in order to maintain pressurised chamber and a hose connector is screwed on the carriage to couple the hose with it. (Ref.Drg.No. 1, 2-00-073-60098) iv.



Lance Assembly (Drg.No. 3-00-073-60107 & 2-00-073-60097)



The lance tube Assembly is bolted to the travelling carriage and the lance is a alloy steel tube. The lance tube is not normally air cooled, when the probe is used for gas temperatures upto 537°C (1000°F). If air cooling is provided, the air house is connected to a coupling at the travelling carriage end of the lance tube. The thermocouple is normally of the grounded chromel alumel type enclosed in a stainless steel sheath. It is fixed to the end of the lance tube, by means of a threaded coupling. The thermocouple extends through the lance tube to the terminal coupling at the carriage end where a female connector for the lead wires is provided. The corresponding male connector is connected to the thermocouple lead wire which terminates at the thermocouple terminal head, fixed on the housing, through cable drag chain. The probe has to be connected to a suitable temperature indicator which will show the gas temperature. For preventing any damage to the thermocouple head a cage type protective shield is provided, and this will allow free access of flue gases to the tip of thermo couple during operation. In case of air cooled probe, an inner S.S.tube called lance liner tube is supported by equidistant lugs as shown in the drawing 2-00-073- 60097 at various intervals inside the lance tube and two straight bore nozzles are provided to expand the entering air pressure to furnace pressure. The air enters through the annular space between liner tube and lance tube and enter the liner tube through the gap provided at the front end to reach the nozzles thereby it maintains the cooling effect on the surface of the lance. V.



Position Indicator (see assembly drawing)



In order to know the position of the lance tube, corresponding the gas temperature, a position indicator is normally provided with the temperature probe. The position indicator is a voltmeter calibrated to continuously indicate the position of the thermocouple in. The voltmeter is connected in parallel with a linear, ten turn helipot potentiometer (variable resistor) which is driven by a no slip belt drive on the jack shaft. The mechanical arrangement of the potentiometer drive is illustrated in Drg. 3-00-073-60109 and 3-00-073-60110. 8 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 6 - 99



The details of the electrical wiring for the probe without air cooling are illustrated in the Drg. 2-00-073-60006 and for the probe with air cooling refer drawing 2-00073-60099 and 3-00-07360127. A 0-10 voltmeter calibrated in percentage of travel and at toroidal type 12k ohm. 50 watts variable resistor are supplied loose, as position indicating instruments along with the probe. The voltmeter and the variable resistor are to be mounted in the control cubicles and wired to the helipot poten tiometer by the customer. The variable resistor is to be used for calibrating the travel indicated by the voltmeter. The calibration of the position indicator is to be done during commissioning of the temperature probe. 110V single phase 50 cycle is recommended for this circuit. Vi.



Control Circuitry



The control circuitry on the temperature probe is designed as per the requirement. All electrical hardwares for control and indication are subject to the customer’s option. For this reason, control arrangements are presented in detail by specific contract circuit descriptions and contract drawings.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLATIONS 3.1



Inspection check list



i.



Check the thermocouple tip for any damage from handling or shipment, after removing the shield for the thermocouple.



ii.



Check all control and power wiring for loose terminals, proper connections etc.,



iii.



Check connection of motor for proper direction of rotation.



iv.



Check all thermocouple junctions for tight terminal connections.



V.



Check the limit switch actuating arms to see that they are in correct operating positions.



vi.



Check alignment of frame structure, track and sheave wheel track, particularly for any bend, twist or other distortions.



vii.



Check roller chain sprockets for correct engagement with the chains.



viii.



Check alignment of the roller bearing for the lance tube and adjust only, if required.



ix.



Check lubrication of roller chains, sprockets bearings, wheels, rollers, etc., and fill in oil for the reduction gear of the power pack.



x.



Check for pressure tightness of the air hose reel, if the probe is provided with air cooling arrangement.



3.2



Instrumentation wiring



The thermocouple lead wires are internally connected to the fixed terminal head on the probe during manufacture. The extension wire should be taken from the terminal head. Ensure the use of the correct compensating cable corresponding to chromel/Alumel thermocouple, the leads connecting to the indicating instrument should be connected to the junction head according to the polarity indicated by the marking of the terminals and the code markings on the leads. Ensure that all connections are tight and firm. A potentiometer type instrument is recommended as the temperature indicating device. NOTE : Check connections of measuring instrument, position transmitter etc., for proper polarity.



4.



OPERATION Refer to the contract circuit diagram for the correct operating description. 4.1



Three push button operation (local and remote)



This push button station has ‘Extend’, ‘Retract’ and ‘Stop’ push buttons. By operating the ‘Extend’ push button the forward contacts of the drive motor will be energised and the probe will move 9 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 6 - 100



forward. Normally, approximately 35 seconds lag is expected between the thermocouple position and the corresponding thermocouple temperature. If multipoint recorder is used, the lag will increase. If the temperature registered by the probe is below 538°C it is expected to be within approximately 50C to the actual temperature measured at the location. The position transmitter will indicate to the operator the travel of the probe in percentage of full travel. At the end of the travel, the travelling carriage side thrust roller will actuate the reverse limit switch and then the ‘reverse’ contactor will be energised to reverse the drive motor and retract the probe. An indicating ‘red’ light may be connected in the panel which will momentarily indicate when the reverse limit switch is actuated. If required with a change in the circuit the probe may be stopped at the full extended position when the reverse limit switch is actuated. Indicating light can be suitably connected to indicate full extended position as red light in the panel. When the ‘reverse’ push button is operated the probe reverses from any position and when the stop limit switch is actuated the probe stops at the fully retracted position and a green light will come on the panel. In the intermediate position both lights will be off. By utilizing the ‘STOP’ push button, the probe lance can be stopped at any desired location. This will enable the operator to check and concentrate on any hot spots in the furnace. A remote contact on the temperature recorder which will close when the temperature measured is +300C more than the maximum 538°C is necessary to give an alarm; and the same time the probe can be retracted. A parallel push button station in the panel will be necessary for remote operation. 4.2



Please refer to application and wiring diagrams (Drg.No. 3-00-073-60127)



This BHEL Furnace Temperature Probe is equipped with a duplex Chromel-Alumel Thermocouple either duplex or simplex. The equipment is limited to monitoring furnace temperatures upto, but not exceeding 1000°F without cooling air; and up to, but not exceeding 1500°F with cooling air. Confirm that sufficient cooling air is available. Operators must observe the temperature limitations to avoid damage to, or loss of, the lance. Contacts (RC) on the customer’s recorder are to close when the temperature reaches 1500°F, energizing the RA relay which will cause the probe to retract to its AT REST position and bring in the customer’s alarm. The temperature probe controls include PARK, EXTEND, RETRACT and STOP push buttons, a solenoid valve SV, pressure switch PS (opens on flow), timer T, alarm relay RA and relay P. (Please note the following are not by PS 20 Group; Alarm relay RA, and Relay P). Solenoid Valve SV and timer T will be energized when the blower moves away from its PARK position and actuate Limit Switch LS-4. SV, PS and timer T form the cooling air supply interlock. If cooling air is not sensed within the time relay period (10 seconds), relay RA will be energized to bring in the alarm. The probe will be caused to retract to its PARK position. Loss of cooling air during operation will also energize the alarm relay. The control push button function as follows: EXTEND -



Depress this push button to cause the probe to extend into the boiler.As the probe moves away from its AT REST position, it will trip LS-3 and LS-4 limit switches. When the probe reaches its fully extended position, it will momentarily trip limit switch LS-1 causing the probe to retract. This circuit will be through closed RET and LS 3 contacts to the RET motor starter.



RETRACT Depress this pushbutton to cause the probe to retract to its fully retracted position. The probe will not remain in its fully retracted position, but will be caused to extend as it momentarily 10 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 6 - 101



trips limit switch LS-2, creating a circuit to the EXT motor starter. STOP



PARK



4.3



-



Depress this pushbutton to stop the probe, at any position, on the EXTEND or RETRACT cycle, to take a reading to continue the EXTEND or RETRACT cycle, depress the desired pushbutton to reinstate the circuit. -



Depress the pushbutton to cause the probe to return to the fully retracted position and stop. The probe will also be caused to PARK if the RA alarm is brought in.



Emergency Retraction



Using a hand crank, the lance can be retracted manually in case of emergency. Before using the hand crank the power supply to the drive motor should be disconnected and the drive should be declutched. For declutching pull out the coupling item 05 of Drg. 3-00-073- 60108 and turn about 900 clockwise thereby the spring lock provided will lock the coupling in the declutched position. For clutching just turn the coupling lock 900 anticlockwise which will keep the coupling engaged with sprocket. A slight adjustment of the sprocket may be necessary in some cases to align the clutch jaws with the sprocket. 4.4



Remote Position Indicator



Setting and Installation Instructions for the slidewire Type position Indicator. CAUTION: The voltmeter indicator is built to accept a maximum of ten (10) volts only. Therefore, it will be necessary to use a separate test voltmeter with a scale suitable for the maximum incoming control voltage. i.



Refer to BHEL Wiring Diagram.



ii.



Mount the adjustable resistor as near as possible to the voltmeter indicator.



iii.



WITH POWER OFF connect all wires as shown on the W/D except the two on the voltmeter indicator; connect these two to the test meter, (see caution above).



iv.



Move the slider of the adjustable resistor to the extreme opposite end of the resistor from the power connection.



v.



Position Probe to a fully Retracted position. Turn the zero screw on the indicator face to zero meter.



vi.



Rotate helipot shaft to the zero degree position and recouple shaft.



vii.



Turn POWER ON. Test meter should now read ‘zero’ or almost zero.



viii.



Run or crank the unit to the fully extended position.



ix.



Move the adjustable resistor slider towards the power connected end until the test meter reads ten (10) volts.



x.



TURN POWER OFF - Disconnect the test meter and connect the leaders to the voltmeter indicator.



xi.



TURN POWER ON - Indicator should now read 100%.



xii.



Final adjustment may be necessary. If indicator reads less than full open move the adjustable resistor slider ahead slightly being careful not to exceed full 100% on the scale. If meter reads more than zero, when unit is fully closed repeat setting starting with step 6.



xiii.



After setting indicator, lock adjustable resistor slider in place. 11 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 6 - 102



5.



MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS 5.1



Lubrication



Refer to the lubrication chart. The drive chains are prelubricated in the manufacturing stage itself and normally we do not recommend any lubrication. Any grease if applied will only attract fly ash accumulation and will result in the loss of articulation of the chain links. Periodically inspect the chain for any rusting or loss of articulation. If severe damage is noticed degrease the chains and apply a thin coat of oil equivalent to Grade SAE 30 with a brush so that all the parts will be covered. 5.2



Replacement



A. Thermocouple Replacement i.



Before replacing the thermocouple, the following checks are recommended to insure that the replacement is necessary: a.



Check all the wiring for breaks and insure that all electrical connections are tight.



b.



With the boiler operating run the probe tube forward approximately 300 mm to place the tip in the higher gas temperature. The temperature read out device should indicate an increase in temperature if the thermocouple is operating satisfactorily.



c.



An alternate method will be to apply heat to the thermocouple and observe the thermocouple output using a portable potentiometer.



d.



If no change in temperature is indicated from the above check, disconnect the read out device and monitor the thermocouple signal with a suitable test device to insure that the read out device is operating satisfactorily. Before proceeding further, disconnect the motor and control power supply.



ii.



Remove the housing cover in the out board end and the travelling carriage cover to have an access to the thermocouple disconnecting plugs. Disconnect the thermocouple extension wire from the compensating cable.



iii.



Pull back the travelling carriage to the extreme out board end and support the lance tube at two places so that it will not damage to compensating cables. Disconnect the lance flange from the travelling carriage.



iv.



Push the lance inside to some distance so that the thermocouple extension wire is out of the travelling carriage and remove the lance by tilting and pulling back from the boiler.



v.



Loosen the S.S. compression fitting which fixes the thermocouple to the lance and the thermocouple guide. Pull out the thermocouple from the flange side after attaching a wire or string to the thermocouple.



vi. B.



Follow the above procedure in reverse for assembling the new thermocouple. Use high temperature antiseize thread compound in all the threads for easy removal. Potentiometer Replacement:



The variable potentiometer used in the position transmitters assembly is limited mechanically to a maximum of 10 revolutions of the input drive shaft. Eventhough the maximum possible travel of the probe utilizes only about 8 revolutions, in order to safeguard the potentiometer at either end of the 10 turn range, proper care should be taken during installation. When replacing the potentiometer, turn the potentiometer shaft clockwise to the full 10 turn and then turn counter clockwise half turn before mounting the unit. The position is corresponding to the fully retracted position of the probe.

GENERAL INFORMATION The Long Retractable Soot Blowers are designed and manufactured with a view to keep the boiler operating efficiently. Because of their exclusive dual motor drive, they assure optimum cleaning of all heating surfaces. BHEL’s Soot Blowers are installed in various power stations in India and abroad and the sum of the experience gained on many new installations goes long way in continuous perfection of the equipment.

LONG RETRACTABLE SOOT BLOWER MODEL LRD-IIE 1.1



General Description (Refer Drg. No. 0-00-073-60024)



The LRD-IIE model Soot Blower is a boiler cleaning device in which a rotating lance extends into and retracts from the boiler to make sure that the cleaning medium-steam air-directed through the nozzles, removes the deposits from tube or wall surfaces. The lance (item 07) is attached to a carriage housing (item 5) which runs on tracks inside the blower housing. The carriage and lance are moved by means of a traversing chain (item 15) operated by a 0.56 kW electric power pack (item 2). Rotary motion is applied to the lance through the travelling carriage by a second chain (item 16) driven by a separate 0.75 kW electric power pack (item 3). Control movement is by a stop limit switch and a reverse limit switch (items 11 and 12). The unit can be supplied with different traversing and rotating speeds. Standard traversing speeds are available in various increments from 1.25 to 3.65 m. per minute. Standard rotating speeds are available in various increments from 4.25 rpm to 7.75 rpm. These speed variations are accomplished by changing the power pack and jack shaft drive sprockets. Other speeds are possible for special application by the use of special sprockets. Normally the blowers will be supplied with 1.65 m/min and 5.92 rpm. Flow of blowing medium through the retractable soot blower is controlled by the valve (item 4 detailed description is given under the head “ SBV head -) mounted at the rear end of the blower. The feed pipe item no. 08 is attached to the outlet of this valve head. This feed pipe passes through packing gland in the traveling carriage and lies inside the lance tube (item 07) extending to almost the entire length of the blower. The wheels on the travelling carriage run on tracks welded to the inside of the blower housing (item 1). Sideways motion is limited by a roller on each side of the carriage which use the housing sides as guides. 8 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 7 - 139



The ends of traversing chain are connected to each end of the carriage (3-00-073-60095). The rotary chain is continuous (3-00-073-60096). It passes over sprockets on the carriage and causes rotation through a gear train. The lance is flanged to the carriage and supported on the boiler end by bearing and yoke plate. (item 6) The electric gear box on the right side is for traversing and the electric gear box on the left side is for rotation when viewed from the rear end of the blower. Motion is transmitted from the gear boxes to jack shafts on each side of the blower. Tension on the internal chains are adjusted by adjusting the screws on chain tighteners which hold the idler sprockets on the outboard end of the unit. The housing completely covers the blower except the traversing and rotating gear boxes. The housing is open at the bottom except for tie bars at intervals. A section of the top of the housing near the rear end of the blower is cut away to, allow access to the travelling carriage. The access areas have removable cover. A short section of the track at the rear is removable to permit removing the travelling carriage for major maintenance. The soot blower valve head item No. 04 is operated by a trip pin (item No. 18 of (0-00-073-60021) on the top of the travelling carriage which engage a trip cam item No. 27 and through the trip rod item No. 30 linkage and valve lever item No. 25 causes the head valve to open or close. The stroke of the head valve is governed by the length of the trip rod. To change the valve stroke, loosen the jam nuts where it screws into the rod connection and turn the rod. One end of the rod has a right hand thread, the other end in left hand. When the desired length is attained tighten the join nuts. The spring on the trip rod should be adjusted to eliminate all looseness in the assembly. 1.2



SBV Head (Drg. No. 1-00-073-60003)



The Soot Blower Valve head allows the blowing pressure of the blower to beadjusted by limiting the stroke of the valve. Where it is necessary to reduce the pressure greatly, a fixed orifice may be installed in the head inlet flange. The stroke of the head valve is governed by adjustment of the drive screw which contacts the head valve stem. In the closed position, a minimum clearance of 1mm must be maintained between adjusting screw and valve stem, to assure tight valve seating. In general, slag removal will necessitate blowing pressure of 10-16 kg./cm². Soot and fly ash will need 8-15 kg/cm² and for dust removal, pressure may be as low as 7 kg/cm². In locations of high gas temperatures, the flow from the lance is determined by cooling requirements of the lance and may exceed 75 cubic metres per min. of air or 4,500 kg per hour of steam. This cooling requirement is determined by the furnace gas temperature in which the blower is operating and the number of square inches of lance surface exposed to these furnace temperatures. Obviously a 6 metre lance requires a higher flow of blowing medium to keep it cool than a 3 metre lance. Likewise a 3 metre lance of 76.1 O.D. requires less cooling than a 3 metre lance of 108 O.D. Always refer to the general arrangement drawing (refer General Instructions) for a recommended blowing pressure. CAUTION : DO NOT ADJUST THE VALVE ADJUSTMENT SCREW SO THAT EVEN IN COMPLETELY RETRACTED POSITION THE VALVE IS KEPT IN OPEN CONDITION. 9 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 7 - 140

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 2.1



GENERAL



A wall sleeve and lance scraper plate are provided with each soot blower. The scraper plate usually just floats on the lance. In cases where tube and wall movement are identical the sleeve is Welded to both and the retractable unit is hinged to the sleeve. The outboard mounting is from auxiliary., steel. via a -hinge hanger arrangement which allows the boiler end to move with the walls. For particular information regarding any installation, refer to job drawings. For either type installation, support members must be installed to avoid interfering with travelling carriage operation. All supports should be securely made to prevent vibration, which could subject the supply piping to fatigue strain. 2.2



PIPING



A companion flange, complete with gaskets and fasteners is supplied with each unit. This flange is to be attached to the blowing medium supply piping. The piping must be free of strain and have flexibility to allow the blower to move. 2.3

5.2



OPERATION



i)



General



As the start button is pressed the unit begins to extend and rotate. As the nozzles clear the boiler Wall the carriage strikes the cam, opening the head and blowing commences. At the fully extended position the travelling carriage strikes the reverse limit switch, (item No. 12 of main assembly) which closes. momentarily to reverse the unit. As the carriage retracts, it again strikes the cam closing the - SBV head. The travelling carriage continues its rearward travel until the cleaning nozzle is retracted into the protection of the wall box at which time the stop limit switch (item No. 11 in the main assembly) is struck to stop the unit. (ii)



Frequency



The frequency of Soot Blower operation depends on the operating conditions of the boiler and boiler cleanliness. Some events which may indicate the need for cleaning are, increase in boiler exit gas temperature, increase in gas pressure loss across the boiler (assuming constant boiler load) and visual inspection. It is important when starting up a boiler that the soot blowers be used frequently, and soon after lighting off. Inefficient combustion in a boiler during start up may result in abnormal deposits on the tubes. Unless these are removed frequently, furnace explosions or puffs may result later. It is usually also desirable to use the soot blowers just before taking a boiler out of service. Care must be taken to avoid extending the lance into the boiler without flow of blowing medium, or in subjecting the lance to temperatures in excess of 550°C. If the lance becomes stalled when partially extended, allow blowing to continue in order to cool the lance until manual emergency retract Procedure is taken up. When first placing the 12 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 7 - 143



blower in service make sure it is in good mechanical condition and that flow of blowing medium is established properly. When the soot blowers are not being used, the main blowing medium valve should be closed tightly. 5.3



EMERGENCY OPERATION OF SOOT BLOWER



(i)



To put the soot blower on manual operation.



(ii)



(a)



Switch off power and control supply.



(b)



Close the main stop valve of soot blower system to shut off steam/air supply.



(c)



Insert the handcrank on the worm shaft and rotate until the blower reaches starting position.



Warning (a)



No soot blower should be operated for a second time within one hour interval to avoid damage to motor windings.



(b)



No soot blower should be operated without blowing medium when the boiler is ‘on‘.



(c)



Soot blower should never be manually operated with steam. At the time of any failure of power or control supply during operation of soot blower, the blower should be immediately brought to its starting position to avoid any possible damage to heating surfaces or lance tube. At the end of the traversing gear box, a slotted stub shaft is provided for hand cranking. After removing the cap, a hand crank can be engaged to move the lance manually. One hand crank is normally furnished with each blower. It is also possible to move the gear box with a portable air motor. (SPEC: ½” Pneumatic drill suitable adopter for stubbed shaft; SPEED 275 to 300 rpm)



6.



(d)



No soot blower lance should be left with blowing medium inside the boiler for a long time. Failure of bringing the lance to the start position will lead to damage boiler tubes and the lance.



(e)



In compliance with transportation codes, blowers must be shipped with dry gear boxes. Before operating the blowers fill the power packs with recommended lubricants.



TROUBLE SHOOTING AND MAINTENANCE Unless soot blowers are properly operated and maintained, there can be lengthy and costly outages, and need for more expensive replacement of boiler equipments. Preventive Maintenance Check List The following is a suggested maintenance schedule. Establish a regular maintenance programme compatible with conditions at installation. 6.1



At one week intervals



Check for steam leakage in the travelling carriage gland packing. Aslightamount of leakage is required and permitted. If leakage is excessive change the packing. The entire packing set should be changed at one time. Follow the instructions for changing the packing. Check for scoring marks on the feed tube.



13 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 7 - 144



6.2



At one month intervals



(a)



Check the travelling carriage and valve for steam leakage. If steam leakage is noticed tighten the glands and watch the performance during the next Operation.



(b)



Check for the steam leak through valve seat. A HOT lance tube (when the line is charged with steam) is the indication of steam leak through seat, if it is supported by the hissing noise of steam leakage.



(c)



Check the presence of ‘Stop pin‘ on the cam bracket.



(d)



Check the angle tracks and chain. If ash building is noticed, clean them.



6.3



At 6 month intervals



(a)



Check chain tension of both rotary drive and traversing drive chain. These chains should be adjusted to ride on the upper angle iron track and on the lower turned edge of the main housing. The chain should be supported and carried free from either the driver or the idler end sprockets, or both, for a minimum distance of 750 mm and a maximum distance of 1 metre. Refer Drg. 4-20-001-00523.



(b)



Check chain tension of both jack shaft drive chain. The jack shaft drive chains should be tightened so that normal hand pressure will depress either side of the chain at the mid point approximately 25 mm.



(c)



Chains subjected to caustic or corrosive atmosphere or extremely high temperatures may require re-lubrication. Lubricate chains as soon as they show signs of rust on any of the external parts. Replace any chain that is badly rusted or corroded and has lost articulation. Refer to LUBRICATION SECTION of General Instructions for recommended lubricants and lubrication procedure. (Pub. No. 7501-79)



(d)



Check both “ Stop “ and “ Reverse “ limit switches. The actuating arms should be tight and secure on the switch pivots. The pivots should be free of paints or oil so that no hinderance or binding of movement occurs. The actuating arm should be correctly adjusted so as to pass freely through the slots in the housing and be properly engaged by the travelling carriage slide roller.



6.4



At one year intervals



(a)



Check gaskets at travelling and rotary gear box covers. (Gaskets may have. dried and shrunk permitting oil seepage). Cap screws on covers should be. tightened. Replace gaskets if seepage is excessive.



(b)



Check oil level in travelling carriage gear boxes. Add recommended lubricant, if necessary. Refer to LUBRICATION SECTION of General Instructions. (Pub. No. 7501)



(c)



Check oil in the reduction gear boxes on the traversing and rotary power packs. Add recommended lubricant, if necessary. Refer to Lubrication Section of General Instructions.



(d)



Check complete assembly. Tighten loose bolts, nuts and cap screws. Replace missing cotter pins and springs.



(e)



Change motor bearings, if required.



(f)



Coat the threaded components with Molyka or antiseize compound so that the rusting will be prevented.



(g)



Check the valve stem assembly for pitting and if pitting is severe replace the stem with a new one. Apply Molyka on the stem while assembly. 14 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 7 - 145



(h)



Check the mountings and hanger supports of blower. The hinge pin should be secured by cotter pins. Lock clamp washers are required to secure mounting shoulder bolts.



(i)



Test, Operate each individual blower



Using the local start button with the blowing medium of the unit under normal operating conditions, test, operate each individual blower. Along with the mechanical operation of each blower the blowing pressure also should be checked by using pressure gauge, in the SBV operating head. The recommended blowing pressure is shown on the general arrangement drawings Blowing pressure chart. This manual check is essential to assure that excessive blowing pressures are not incurred what would cause boiler tube wastage. 6.5



Shut-down checks



In addition to the annual checks as in 6.4 the following checks are to be carried out : (a)



Check whether the boiler tubes have eroded. If thickness is reduced to a very low value provide of shielding.



(b)



Check the gap between the lance tube and the boiler tube. The gap should be kept min. of 100 mm. For the blowers located in the second pass, the gap between the lance tube, (at the extended condition) and the coil edge is to be checked. The minimum distance of 100 mm is to be maintained.



(c)



Paint the blowers once in two years.



6.6



Periodical check determined by installation conditions



(a)



Check motor starter cabinets. Cabinets should be kept securely closed and gaskets should be in place to prevent contamination. If cabinets have been opened for servicing, carefully blow surfaces free of dust or foreign material with tight air pressure from a dry, clean air supply. Position gasketand secure cover.



(b)



Packing on the feed tube in the travelling carriage and the valve stem in the SBV operating head should be tightened. When packing glands are fully down and leakage is still present, the units should be marked for repacking after the blowing medium is turned off and the header secured and tagged.



(c)



Scraper plates should be inspected for wear as a regular maintenance procedure. Immediately following start-up, routine examination should begin and should be scheduled for two month intervals. After completing several bimonthly checks, the frequency of these inspections may be altered by increasing or decreasing the time interval between checks (to be determined by the wear pattern)



(d)



Internal Inspections



(i)



Check to see that nozzles are not worn, cracked or split. Examine inner wall sleeve edges to make sleeves are not breaking down under heat and thus failing to protect nozzle heads when they are retracted. See that nozzles are properly retracted for protection.



(ii)



Examine thoroughly all tubes cleaned by these units by rubbing the hands over them to determine if there are any grooves or flat spots indicating erosion or cutting. Tube 15 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 7 - 146



erosion or cutting with Retractable Units is invariably due to excessive blowing pressure. This pressure should be controlled to avoid the damage. On Long Retract able Units be careful not to reduce pressure to a point where the volume of steam.passing through the lance will be insufficient for cooling the lance when fully extended. (iii)



Space between Water wall tubes where these lances enter is sometimes limited by boiler construction. Check to see that lances enter the centre of the operating without striking the boiler tube which could thus be damaged.



(iv)



Lances should be straight and true. Straightening procedures as outlined for Rotary Equipment can be followed.



(e) External Inspection-Long Retract (i)



For general instructions refer Section 5.2-EXTERNAL INSPECTION of Publication No. 7501.



(ii)



Take care when mounting long retractables. Where outboard bearing or boiler end of the unit is supported and attached to the boiler, the other point should be attached to structural steel. The boiler will move under heat and load. Thus if more than one point is attached to steel structures, twisting and bending of the unit will occur with boiler load changes.



(iii)



All units of this type have some sort of the telescoping tube or feed tube running through a packing gland. Surfaces passing through these glands should be clean, smooth and free from burrs, cuts of scoring. If they cannot be cleaned, they should be replaced to prevent excessive packing replacement or damage to mating parts.



(iv)



It is sometimes necessary to relocate soot blower units or add additional equipment to relieve troubles or reduce maintenance. This, as well as a question of change in design should be deferred until all possible sources of trouble have been eliminated.



6.7



Lubrication



The capacity of the travelling carriage is 1 litre of gear oil. We recommend SERVOMESH 28 for air blowing and 0.6 kg of SERVOGEM HTXX for steam blowing. Where SERVOGEM HTXX or equivalent is used in the travelling carriage, the grease, after it has been run through a few operations will find its own level. The volume of this grease should be approximately half-way on the hollow spindle as a maximum, minimum should be upto the oil level plug. (if temperatures of blowing steam exceeds 427°C use Almasol 1250). The reduction gear boxes on the motor power packs have a capacity of 0.75 litre each. Also the recommended lubricant is SERVOMESH 28. Replace the pipe plugs in the highest opening in the box with air vents provided loose. Should the chains be subject to caustic or corrosive atmosphere or extremely high humidity conditions they may require lubrication. Failure to properly tighten and constantly maintain packing in the travelling carriage of steam blowing installations will rapidly deplete lubrication on the drive chains. Chains should be lubricated as soon as they show signs of rust or any of the external parts. Should chains be badly rusted and corroded in the pins and rollers and the movement (or articulation) lost, no amount of penetrating oil or lubrication will free those parts which have seized up. Two-fold lubrication is recommended, when required: For the first step of the chain lubrication procedure, a light body penetrating fluid should be applied not only to wash out rust, fly ash, and debris but also to act as a carrier to help the heavier, lasting lubricant enter the close clearances between pins and rollers. 16 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 7 - 147



We recommend for the first coat Trichloroethylene. Since this penetrating spray must be thin, it will volatilize and evaporate rather quickly. The application of a heavier more permanent lube must follow immediately while the penetrating oil is still present, to carry the heavy lube to the working parts. We recommend for the second coat, Light oil to the grade of SAE-30. The second coat, should be applied as a thin coat with brush so as to cover and penetrate the bearing areas. Too much of the lubricant will trap the flyash and will make the chain stiff and loose the articulation. The Indian Oil grade of SAE-30 will be SERVOLINE-140. 6.8



Procedure for Lance and Feed Tube Removal



The lance tube and feed tube can be removed from the bottom of the blower. For their removal proceed as follows : (i)



Remove M20 nuts attaching the SBV valve head to the blower and remove the head.



(ii)



Loosen the packings on the travelling carriage.



(iii)



Slide the feed tube out of several centimeters and remove two feed pipe retainer ring halves.



(iv)



Disconnect the lance flange from the travelling carriage. Slide the feed tube into the lance several centimeters. The lance should be supported by a sling through the housing.



(v)



Remove tie bars from the bottom of housing at the head end to allow the lance to be dropped.



(vi)



Lower the end of the lance and feed pipe and pull the lance out of the roller bearing at the boiler end of the blower and slide it out of the blower housing.



(vii)



To reassemble the lance and feed pipe, follow the steps in reverse order.



6.9



Packing Installation



(i)



The travelling carriage utilizes a formed packing set. The packing gland nuts should be drawn up tight enough to effect a seal but not excessive enough to restrict the travel of the carriage.



(ii)



Recommended procedure for Packing Installation



(a)



The useful life of packing is dependent on the method of installation. Poor installation can cause the best packing tofail prematurely. The methods in this procedure, if followed, will lead to better sealing and longer life. These packing methods apply both to installing packing in new equipment and replacing packing in equipment that is in service.



(b)



Installation Method (Travelling Carriage Assembly) Clean out the old packing. Flexible packing hooks are available for removing the packing. Inspect the feed pipe for wear or damage. Remove any raised metal that projects above the normal surface. Do not try to file out depressions or scratches. Raised metal will tear packing. Any reworking of scratches will only worsen the condition. Keep the new packing clean during installation. Grit or other hard foreign matter that is installed with the packing may score the feed pipe causing an early failure of the packing. Install all packing rings so that the joints are staggered and kept approximately 90° 17 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 7 - 148



apart. Spot the joints in clockwise direction to facilitate locating them when removing and packing. Install the rings one at a time. Each ring must be set firmly into place with either the gland or a tamping tool as shown in Drg. 4-20-996-01241. After each ring is installed, the ring must be compressed with approximately the same force that it will have with the final gland force. Each ring should be equally compressed when the entire set is installed. If this is not done, only the last ring will do the sealing and will wear quickly. Bevelled packing is to be installed with the bevel lip on the shaft pointing toward the pressure. One end of the tamping tool is angled for bevelled packing. Fit the bevel on the packing to the bevel on the tool. Oil or grease may be applied to the outside of braided asbestos packing to help in installing it in the stuffing box. Tighten the gland follower, sufficiently tight, after the packing has been installed to insure final seating of the packing. The nuts should be backed off two or three turns to relieve excessive pressure. Adjust packing to operating conditions. Allow packing to leak a small amount, if possible, when starting newly packed equipment. Tighten the gland slowly as the packing seats. Do not be afraid to let packing leak a small amount. It is good assurance that packing is not too tight and the liquid usually has some lubricating qualities. (c)



Installation Method (SBV Head Assembly)



The new packings on the soot blower valve head assembly can be easily assembled removing the valve from the soot blower. If packings are installed with the valve mounted on the blower, care should be taken to see the valve stem assembly does not fall in the soot blower pipe line. Install the rings one at a time. Each ring must be set firmly into place using the gland bushing. Follow the Installation procedwe as suggested in 6.7 (b). For assembling the spring retainer of the valve (item 08 of 1-00-073-60003), use the spring tool as suggested in the drawing 4-00-073-60158. When renewing packing, use all new clean packing. Worn packings are dry, highly compressed, have high friction and may develop scoring. Remember packing is relatively cheap. Labour and materials necessary to replace worn valve stems are expensive and critical commodities. The most expensive seal is a seal that fails. Light gland pressure should be maintained at all times. Too much pressure will cause binding, scoring of the shaft and force the lubricant out the packing. Too little gland pressure will allow excessive leakage and washing out of the packing. When the packing has been compressed to less than 3/4 of its original height, it should be replaced. The loss of height in packing may indicate a loss of essential lubricant. 6.10 Chain Tension Adjustment (Drg. No. 4-20-001-00523) The chain must ride on the upper angle iron track and on the lower turned edge of the main housing. Under no circumstances can the chain be so tight that it will be supported only by the drive and idler sheave sprockets. When the chain is being adjusted, the chain should be supported and carried free from either or both end sprockets, that is either the driver or the idler for a minimum distance of 750 mm and a maximum of 1000 mm from the sprocket to the track. 18 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 7 - 149



The mid-point of the chain from 750to 1000 mm of the driver and 750 to 1000 mm of the idler must ride on the lower rail. 6.11 Spares In the enclosed drawings spares that are recommended for stock by the user, are marked by ’S’. While ordering spares the item number and drawing number as found in the Bill of material and details furnished in the soot blower name plate must be indicated for quick supply of these items. Section 10 gives the recommended list of standard spares.

S. COMBINATION LONG RETRACT AND WALL BLOWER Please refer to. the T 30 MK II-E Installation Instructions for general installation and maintenance information. The specific assembly drawings for this combination retract-wall blower follow this description of the blower operation. The Assembly drawing and description of the ‘ DA ‘head furnished on this blower are also included. Description of Operation (Refer Drg. 0-00-073-60025 and 2-00-073-70083) Blower operation is initiated by depressing the “ Panel start - or the “ Local start push button. This creates the circuit to energize the “ CRO - relay and thus starts the rotary motor, causing the lance to rotate. This “ EXT - relay will be energized through closed centrifugal contacts on the rotary motor or through ‘ CRO ‘ contact and the limit switch LS1 thus causing the traverse motor starts, causing the lance to extend from initial position. The circuit will be locked by limit switch LS2 is tripped. After a pre-determined travel, limit switch LS3 will be tripped energizing the latching solenoid valve SV that -controls the DA head, permitting the blowing medium to be admitted to the lance. The blower will continue to rotate and. extend until the limit switch LS1 is momentarily tripped, breaking the circuit to “ EXT” and bringing in “ RET “ to cause the lance to retract. The circuit will be locked by 101 R contacts. The lance will retract until limit switch LS3 is tripped energizing the timer T and R2 through closed R1 contacts. This causes the blower to stop, rotate and blow in position until timer ‘T’times out. When timer ‘T’ times out, 101 R2 will be do-energized. The circuit will be created through closed R1 and R2 contacts to permit the blower to continue toretract. When timer T times out. energizing releasing solenoid valve SV to close the DA head and blowing will Stop. Limit switch LS2 will be stroked causing the blower to atop at its “.REST “ position. diaphragm Operated ‘ DA’ Head Assembly Drawing 1-00-073-60100. The ‘DA’ Head is a diaphragm operated valve which controls the flow of blowing medium to the blower. This head has a poppet type valve, which is stroked by the interaction of the diaphragm plate, spindle and a lever. The 40 square inch operator requires air loading pressure in the range of 40 to 80 psi. When air is supplied to diaphragm it moves up racking lever No. 21 causing adjusting screw No.* 26 to stroke the head poppet valve. There must be a back lash of at least 1- 16" between adjusting screw No. 26 and poppet valve stem. Increasing. this backlash reduces blowing pressure. A number 60 drill blood hole is required in the tubing fitting in stalled in the diaphragm chamber while the vent port is open to atmosphere.

ASPIRATING AND SEALING AIR FOR LONG RETRACTABLE BLOWERS WITH SINGLE SCRAPER PLATE (Applicable for Pressurised Furnace) Single Scraper Plate Air Seal When soot blowers are used on boilers with positive furnace pressures, it is necessary to use air seal aspirators with the soot blower sleeves. The air seal sleeve is used to prevent escape of furnace gases from around the lance. The use of an aspirator, while not mandatory with air seal sleeves, permits removal of a lance with the boiler in operation, without danger of escape of furnace gases. The air seal and aspirator are attached to the soot blower sleeve. Aspirator The aspirator consists of a cylindrical annular air chamber, into which high pressure air is admitted. The lance passes through the central portion of the aspirator. In the cylinder forming the inner wall of the aspirator chamber, there are a series of nozzles drilled on an angle so that discharge of air through them forms a cone with the base at the aspirator and the apex several inches forward of the lance tip. When air is admitted to the aspirator the cone of air prevents flow of furnace gases back through the aspirator and allows removal of the lance or scraper plate. Air Seal The air seal is located directly behind the aspirator. The lance scraper plate forms the rear wall of this chamber. Low pressure air is introduced into the chamber at a pressure greater than furnace, and due to small clearance between outside diameter of lance and inside diameter of the scraper plate, an effective seal is formed against furnace pressure. Scraper Plate The scraper plate is held in position by a horizontal spring through which the lance passes. The scraper plate is hardened, and in addition to sealing, will remove deposits on the lance. When air is admitted to the air seal, an effective seal is made at the lance outside diameter so furnace gas cannot escape from the boiler. The lance is positioned so that both nozzles lie behind the air seal in the fully retracted position, thus the nozzles.are outside the seal, away from furnace gas, which prevents damage from corrosion caused by boiler gases in the lance. Air at some pressure (see contract drawings) above furnace pressure must be provided at the inlet to the air seal chamber to effect a proper seal, seal air should be ON whenever the boiler is in service, with the lance in place. If the lance is removed, the opening must be covered and the seal air shut off. Aspirating air must be ON when removing or installing the lance or scraper plate. Aspirator air pressure is determined by lance size (see contract drawings). Permanent air connections for aspirating air are not required. Quick disconnect fittings for air hook up are desirable to speed hook up for maintenance. The manifold valve must be in “seal” - position when the boiler is in operation. Aspirating air is supplied (only for short periods) when repairs or replacements are being made with the boiler in operation. Before attempting scraper plate maintenance, make sure the aspirating air is ‘ ON’ by placing the manifold in the ‘aspirate ‘ position. If the seal is to be opened for an extended time, cover the open end of the aspirator and reduce the aspirator air flow to that necessary to keep the sleeve cool. 28 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 7 - 159



Never allow the aspirator or air seal to be open ended when the boiler is in service without having aspirating air ‘ ON’. The air seal should be reassembled by reversing the above procedure. Determine, that the nozzle head is in the proper position. When the air seal chamber is secured the aspirating air should be turned OFF and the seal air should be ON. NOTE:



NOZZLES ARE TO BE ON THE OUTBOARD SIDE OF THE SCRAPER PLATE WHEN THE BLOWER IS FULLY RETRACTED AND IN THE ‘AT REST’ POSITION.



The proper location of these soot blower nozzles should be checked prior to start-up and at every outage. Should nozzle openings straddle the scraper plate or be on the inboard side, the seal will be lost and furnace gas will escape which will destroy the lance tip. Where design dictates that the blower lance be extra, long, so as to extend any blowing nozzle beyond this air seal (or where half tract blowers are employed) with nozzles on the furnace side of the scraper plate, while the blower is ‘at rest‘ special provisions are made to seal or purge furnace gases from the blower. Forced Pressure Air Valve For those installations where nozzles are on furnace side of seal air chamber, a forced pressure air valve is located on the soot blower valve. Seal air is supplied to the forced pressure air valve, by tubing connected to the seal air header. The forced pressure air valve acts as a check valve to retain high pressure steam in the operating head valve while blowing. After blowing has been completed, a small spring opens the check to admit seal air to the blower lance and drive out furnace gases. Check contract drawings and specifications to determine aspirator and seal air volume required. This will vary, depending on furnace pressure; there of, specifications on contract drawings should be checked and followed. Seal air pressure differential can be checked by extending the retracted soot blower nozzles to the furnace side of the seal air chamber and through the wall sleeve into the furnace cavity several inches. The blower is extended as far as possible without actuating the blowing valve linkage. This will place the blowing nozzles in the furnace area, which will allow furnace pressure into the lanceand back to the soot blower valve. CAUTION:



SECURE BOTH BLOWING MEDIUM AND ELECTRIC DRIVE CIRCUITS BEFORE EXTENDING THE LANCE FOR THESE READINGS TO AVOID INJURY TO PERSONS TAKING THE READINGS.



The furnace pressure reading can then be obtained on this individual soot blower by installing a manometer in the 3/8 inch tap on the soot blower valve normally used to measure blowing pressures. The seal air pressure should be measured as close as possible to the inlet to the’air seal downstream of all air hose fittings and branch line connections. This usually requires a tap in the last fitting to the air seal manifold valve. The tap can be 1/8 or 1/4 inch pipe thread and a standard pipe plug used to close the opening when readings have been completed. With the lance extended and one leg of a “ U “ tube manometer connected to the soot blower valve tap and the other leg of the manometer to the seal air supply (as described above) the differential pressure between seal air supply and furnace presssure may be read directly on the “ U “ tube. 29 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 7 - 160



At least two readings should be taken under two or more boiler load conditions. Readings are desirable at nominal or high boiler loads and at relatively low boiler loads. These readings should be checked against contract data to insure adequate seal air pressure and flow are available. Cover Along with the air seal and aspirator assembly a cover is supplied separately for covering the furnace opening, in case the seal is to be kept opened for extended period.

Plan for tools, tackles, rigging and handling facilities required for the installation of the Blowers.



(v)



Ensure that all documents like Erection Manuals, Erection Drawings and other relevant documents are available before commencement of the erection. If not contact BHEL, Tiruchy for complete documents.



(vi)



Programme a sequence of erection in relation to the type of the blowers being erected. Economics and safety are equally important while erecting the blowers.



(i)



Transport



The soot blower assemblies are shipped completely covered with water proof coverings. UNLESS THE BLOWERS ARE TAKEN FOR IMMEDIATE ERECTION, DO NOT DISTURB THE 10 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 8 - 203



COVERINGS. Replace the damaged covers wherever required. Some assemblies like wall deslaggers; and rotary blowers are shipped with temporary wooden platforms to prevent parts getting damaged during erection. THESE ARE NOT TO BE REMOVED TILL THE BLOWERS ARE ERECTED. This will ensure that the parts are not damaged during handling. Cover all the electrical items with water proof and dust proof coverings. Nozzle and valve openings are shipped covered. If any damages are noticed to the covering take necessary actions to rectify it. (ii)



Storage



Normally storage under covered roof is not necessary for soot blowers. When the water proof covers are removed, wall deslaggers; and rotary blowers must be stored under covered roof if the interval between soot blower erection and receipt is more than one month. Always use the lifting lugs or hooks provided to avoid damage to the connected parts Similarly avoid hitting the assembly against the structures or other boiler components while the soot blowers are being lifted. Ensure that the air vent plug in the gear boxes are in place. Avoid leaving open holes in the gear boxes. IF THE STORAGE PERIOD IS LIKELY TO EXCEED 2 MONTHS FILL THE GEAR BOXES WITH OIL FOR PROTECTION. Support the blowers properly during storage. Avoid stacking the blower or placing heavy weights on the blowers. (iii)



Weight



(a)



LongRetract: The weight varies with the travel. For actual values refer 4-00-073-60088.



(b)

ERECTION INSTRUCTIONS : LONG RECTRACTABLE SOOT BLOWER (i )



Supports



The long retractable soot blowers are to be supported at both boiler and rear ends. Unless otherwise indicated in the drawing, the boiler end shall not be supported in the platforms. (Refer Drg. 4-00-073-60016). Long retracts are normally slopped towards the boiler when the unit is working. To achieve this, while erecting due consideration shall be given to the boiler expansion so that at boiler hot conditions the blower will be slopping towards the boiler. This is to aid condensate drainage into the boiler after the blowing operation is over. (Refer Drgs. 3-00-073-60045, 3-00-073-60046 & 4-00-073-60063). The retractable soot blowers are also to be erected inclined considering the horizontal expansion, so that when the boiler is working the blower will be perpendicular to the wall in the horizontal plane. The expansion values at different soot blower points are given in the soot blower piping drawings. NOTE: THIS SLOPE WILL NOT BE APPLICABLE TO HALF RETRACTS AND TUBULAR AIR HEATER CLEANERS. (ii)



Lifting



While lifting the long retractable soot blower take care to see that no damage is caused to the wiring and other components by hitting with other structures. Use only the lifting lugs. It is suggested to have wooden blocks on the sides of the housing so that the slings will not damage the electrical wiring while lifting. 11 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 8 - 204



CAUTION: DO NOT REMOVE THE WOODEN GUARDS (Refer Drg. 4-00-073-60058). (iii) (a) (b)



General Ensure adequate clearance for the lance removal. Weld the wall boxes with the seal box in such away that the wall box centre line is perpendicular to the water wall and concentric to the opening (Refer Drgs. 3-00-073-60045 & 3-00-073-60046).



If the lance does not travel perpendicular to the water wall, at the end of forward travel, the gap between the lance and the nearby tube will be very small. This may lead to erosion and damage to boiler tubes. (c)



The mounting lugs should be kept horizontal (Refer Drg. 3-00-073-60049) while welding the wall sleeve assembly.



(d)



IMPORTANT: Ensure that the correct blower is erected at the correct location. (Refer Drg. 3-00-073-60039). The blower number on the name plate should correspond to the location number in the drawing. All the long retractable blowers are not identical. For example the size, shape, and position of the nozzle, the material composition of the lance etc., will be different. Interchanging of the blower will result in damage of the lance tube. Record the blower Number in 13A Check Sheet Blower Number.



(e)



After erecting the long retracts, move the lance forward and backward to check whether the gap between the lance edge and the boiler tubes is uniform after considering the allowance kept for horizontal vertical expansion.



(f )



After the electrical connections have been completed, close the terminal box with the terminal box cover. The cover should be tightened with all screws and gaskets to make the terminal box weather proof. The incoming cables should be flexible to take up blower movements and the connections should be properly sealed.



(g)



Check whether the scraper plate in the blower assembly rides on the lance loosely. There should not be any binding.



(h)



In the case of pressurised boiler ensure that the nozzle does not lie in the seal chamber (Refer Drg. 1-00-073-60059).



(i)



Do not remove the flange protection plate and the wooden block attached to the blower near the boiler end, till, the blower is installed. These will protect the blower parts and the sealing face of the flange.



(j)



While erecting the blower ensure that the minimum access is available for maintenanc.Refer Drg. 4-00-073-60072. It is not possible to alter the soot blower locations, since these are linked up with the boiler tubes inside. Modification can be only on the structures and platforms wherever required.



(k)



Do not place any heavy objects on the blowers. They are not designed for taking such heavy loads.



(l)



For Air Operated Long Retracts, install the lubricator and filter very close to the blower (Refer Drg. 3-00-073-60044).



(m)



Do not use the blower as the welding platform



IMPORTANT: THE AIR INLET CONNECTIONS SHALL BE KEPT COVERED TILL THE AIR PIPING IS CONNECTED. 12 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 8 - 205



ERECTION INSTRUCTIONS : WALL DESLAGGER (i)



Supports



The wall deslaggers are not to be separately supported unles otherwise specified. The wall deslagger along with its wall box should be welded with the seal box (Refer Drg. 3-00-073-60041). (ii)



Lifting



Use the eye bolt provided for lifting the wall deslagger see Fig. Since some of the components like gear housing etc., are made of aluminium, care should be taken while lifting the blowers so that these parts will not get damaged. IMPORTANT: Careless handling will break the casting connecting the switch box. DO NOT REMOVE THE WOODEN PLATFORMS TILL THE BLOWER IS ERECTED. (Refer Drg. 3-00-073-60047) (iii)



General



(a)



Ensure adequate clearance for access to the.switch box and hand cranking (Refer Drg. 4-00-073-60073).



(b)



IMPORTANT: WELD THE WALL BOX WITH THE SEAL BOX IN SOCH A WAY THAT THE WALL BOX CENTRE LINE IS PERPENDICULAR TO THE WATER WALL. IF THIS IS KEPT UP, THE NOZZLE CENTRE LINE WILL AUTOMATICALLY BE PARALLEL TO THEWATERWALL. WALL BOX SLEEVE ALSO SHOULD BE CONCENTRIC TO THE SLEEVE BOX OTHERWISE INTERFERENCE OF THE SWIVEL TUBE WITH THE WATER WALL WILL RESULT (Refer Drgs. 3-00-073-60041 & 4-00-073-60062).



(c)



Check all wall daslaggers for the following :



-



Axis of swivel tube is to be perpendicular to plane of boiler wall tubes. NO DEVIA. TION CAN BE ALLOWED!



-



Distance of centre line of clearing nozzle to face the boiler tubes to be cleaned must be 38 mm. (Refer Drg. 4-00-073-60057). This should be set from inside the furnace only. After this is set by mounting studs and nuts, punch mark the setting on the alignment plate, taking the wall box flange as the reference. This will be helpful for quick adjustment for setting, if blowers are dismantled and re-erected for detailed instructions see (iv) “Nozzle adjustment”.



(d)



Ensure the incoming cables to the switch box are flexible and supported externally. Connections shall be sealed water tight.



(e)



The piping for wall blower should always be supported on the buckstays, furnace guides etc., and never on the supporting structures of platform (Refer Drg. 4-00-073-60017).



(f )



Never allow anybody to stand on the wall deslaggers. This will damage the components and also whatever adjustment done earlier will be lost. See Fig. 8. NEGLIGENCE OF THIS WILL RESULT IN TUBE FAILURE.



(g)



Ensure the blower with the correct blower number is erected at the correct location. Some wall deslaggers may have limited angle blowing arrangement.



(h)



Do not place any heavy load on the blower especially on the switch box. If this is NOT FOLLOWED THE SWITCH MOUNT CONNECTOR WILL BREAK.



(i)



Before erection, verify whether the nozzle is pointing downwards. If not mark up those units for adjustments during start up. 13 1610 - 1611 VOL - C1 TAB - 8 - 206



(iv)



Nozzle adjustment



Nozzle alignment should be made from inside the furnace, referencing the centre line of the nozzle and wall tube surface, with the nozzle opening parallel to the wall tubes. If the units are set from outside the boiler through expediency, they should be checked from inside at the first opportunity. A tool (gauge) for checking the 38 mm nozzle position is supplied in PGMA 20-998 and this could be used for setting the nozzle position properly thig method of checking from inside is preferred. Since it is not always possible or practical to check and adjust the location of the wall blower nozzle from inside the boiler, the following procedure can be used for determining the nozzle location from outside the boiler, with blower removed. Care must be taken to make sure the proper ‘A’ dimension is established between the centre line of the nozzle and the face of the tube (usually 38 mm). Refer to job drawings for the proper dimensions. The swivel tube should be fully extended with the hand crank and a measurement taken from the centreline of the nozzle to the face to steam chest flange. This is shown as dimension ‘B’ on Drg. 4-00-073-60057. A rod of sufficient length to reach through the boiler wall, with 76 mm hook bend at 900 to its longitudinal axis is used, as shown in the drawing, to establish the location of the inside adjustment nuts on the mounting studs in relation to the tube. This is shown as dimension ‘C’. (This is to be carried out before mounting the blower.) Dimension ‘C’is equal to dimension ‘B’minus dimension ‘A’. The length ‘Co should then be marked on the rod and the adjusting nuts set to this dimension.Otten the unit is installed, it should be checked to make sure that it is prependicular with the boiler wall, to ensure cleaning through the full blowing arc. The sweep should then be set, if possible, so that the nozzle is pointing down, or in the 6 O’clock position, when the head opens. This helps to prevent tube cutting from condensate since the nozzle blows parallel with the tube when the head first opens and condensate is blown of before the jet sweeps across tubes (Refer Drg. 4-00-073-60057).



5.

11.



START-UP CHECKS - PIPING (i)



Soot Blower Piping (Steam)



(a)



Check expansion loops for thermal expansion provision.



(b)



Check for slope drainage.



(c)



Condensate drainage shall be from trap to atmospheric pressure.



(d)



Condensate drainage through permanent leak off valve shall be to blowdown tank.



(e)



Check whether the piping is supported with sufficient pipe hangers.



(f )



Check whether the piping at the wall blower locations are supported at the buck stays or furnace guides etc.



(g)



Carry out the hydraulic test at the pressure of 70 Kg/cm2 g in the piping. While doing so check whether all the flanges are blanked with blank flange supplied in P.G. 21. The soot blower valve heads are not to be included. DO NOT PRESSURIZE THE VALVE MORE THAN THE T.C. VALVE



(h)



Blow off the piping with steam as suggested below:



The practice of steam blowing the main line (main vertical header) through the drain valve will result in incomplete cleaning of the branch line, which may lead to valve failure and Scoring of the finely ground feed tube and swivel tube. TO AVOID THIS, BLOW THE INDIVIDUAL LINES TO SOOT BLOWER SEPARATELY. During steam blowing protect the valve internals. Use a flat sheet to cover the valve flange and tie it with the flange, as shown in Drg. 4-00-073-60064. The pressure of steam blowing should be minimum 15 Kg/cm2g. At this time keep the control valve, full open and drain valve closed. Repeat the blow 3 or 4 times for each branch. (i)



Check and record the warming up time required for the piping. Identify the branches where water hammer is present. Additional drain connections may be required in these lines, since the slope is not sufficient for draining the condensate (Refer Drg. 4-00-073-60071).



(j)



Check the function of the control valve. Control valve shall be in operation before commencing the soot blower operation. Check control valve function when the soot blower is in operation. Safety valves will not open if the control valves are acting fast enough.



(k)



Check for leakages and binding in the aspirating and seal air lines.



(l)



Check the differential pressure of seal air when the seal air is on. This check will ensure adequate seal air pressure for each opening (Refer Drg. 1-00-073-60059). Check whether the measured pressure is correct as given in 4-00-073-60090 (for Retracts and Probe).



(m)
