19. Summary and Lesson Learnt
• Operational Problem – Time consuming, delay in
commissioning
Leakages in superheater: Torque spanner
Receiver tube and window glass: Spot Welding, Continuous
power
Water Entry in IA line: NRV
Dry run of the BFP: Level Switches
• Equipment problems – Good engineering practise
NRV Selection: Horizontal & Vertical line
Instrument Stub: No threaded parts
Compressed air line: No threaded joints
Communication failure: Preconsidered
Steam Valves: Control, Manual handle, Station
20. Summary and Lesson Learnt
• System Problem
HTF Freezing: Unfreezes only in summer.
UPS and Tracker failure: Continuous Power
supply
23. Project Objectives

Interruption in power supply to the tracking motors, focus shifted partially
26. Water entry in instrumentation air line
•Compressed air required in the Demineralisation plant (DM) in
mixed bed unit
• No NRV in IA line
• DM water entered into the airline
•4 control valve damaged
Dry run of the boiler feed pump
• Malfunction of Level transmitter on the Deaerator led to dry of
pump
27. NRV at BFP exit Failure
Process flow from Deaerator to Steam generator
30. Steam System valves
•Problem in complete closing of the valve
• Manual closing of Valve – Not possible
• Control Valve in the Steam Line – Regulate pressure
Control Valve without Handle
