TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS
Seal Air System
(a) 2x100% centrifugal seal air fans common for all the mills of one Steam Generator unit
shall be provided.
(b) The sealing system shall prevent ingress of any dust into the bearings and leakage of
coal-air mixture to atmosphere.
(c) Following margins shall be provided for each fan over and above the calculated values
under maximum duty conditions as per specification requirements:
Margin on flow :
25%
Margin on pressure : 30%
Above margins shall be based on an ambient temperature of 50 degree Celsius, relative
humidity of 65 % and system leakages with mill operation at maximum duty.
(d) The seal air fan speed shall not exceed 1500 rpm under test block condition.
(e) Seal air connections shall be provided at all locations including bearing, journals,
feeders etc.
(f) The seal air fans shall preferably be located at ground floor.
Damper Gas Tightness
The dampers at mentioned at Clause No. 15.02.04 (i) above shall have a guaranteed gas
tightness efficiency (on flow) of not less than 99.95% along the duct as well as from the
duct
to atmosphere or from atmosphere to the duct, depending on the pressure in both the
damper open and damper closed condition without the use of seal air fans of the damper.
Outlet dampers of seal air fans, shall be pneumatically operated, suitable for remote
manual operation.
All pneumatically operated interlocked dampers actuators shall be provided with solenoid
valves. For open and close feed back of hot air gates, Proximity (i.e noncontact) type
limit
switches(2NO+2NC) shall be provided. These shall be suitable for working hot & dust
environment.
Quality assurance
Fans : Seal air Fan , Scanner air fans
(a) Rotor components i.e. shaft and hub shall be subjected to ultrasonic test at mill and
magnetic particle examination after rough machining.
(b) 10% of Butt and fillet welds both in rotor and static components of the fan shall
be subjected to MPI / DPT after stress relieving.
(c) Fan impeller shall be balanced dynamically to quality grade 2.5 of ISO 1940.
