1. Purpose & scope:

This Document is prepared to provide proper guidance and instructions for carrying out the LRSB operation
During Boiler Running.

2. Responsibility:
All the personnel involved in carrying out /supervising the above activities are required to ensure
implementation of this procedure (Boiler operator, Desk Engineer, Shift In charge.)

3. System description:
(a) The function of Long Retractable soot Blower is to remove the Soot from furnace zone and for proper heat
transfer at furnace tubes zone during boiler normal running Condition.

03.1. Equipment description:

NUMBER OF SOOT MAKE MOTOR
BLOWER
18 BHEL 1 Rotary and
4. 1 Transverse Pre
Start-
up Check:-
1. Ensure lance of all soot blowers is in retract condition or at home position. Also inlet & outlet flange
of soot blower in proper tighten condition.
2. Ensure spring position of the poppet valve & nut (link) in proper tighten condition.
3. Rotary motor & transverse motor oil level in the gear box to be maintained normal.
4. Motor earthling strip to be properly fitted with ground.

5. Conditions For LRSB Operation:

1. Boiler in Running Condition.
2. MS and RH temp not maintaining.

3. Temp difference in flue gas path.

4. APH Flue Gas outlet Temperature on higher side.

6. Startup procedure:
1. Before starting of soot blowing, open drain valves (from DCS) by coordination with field
engineer (bypass to be opened of drain valve if control valve not working properly).Soot
blowing valve auto open logic < 260 degree & auto closing > 300 degree centigrade.
2. Ensure all drains & manual drains are properly open to warm up the line. Ensure wall blowing
side manual isolation valve in open condition and other soot blower side manual isolation in
closed condition.
3. Open the soot blowing motorized valve S-118 and then open the control valve (SB-PCV) to
maintain the pressure of around 30 kg/cm2.
4. Soot blowing can be started at drain temperature around 240-270 degree centigrade.
5. Pressure before poppet valve to be maintained around 15 kg/cm2 & after to be maintained
around 13 kg/cm2 for soot blowing.
7. Checks for Soot Blower in normal Operation:
1. Ensure safety hand gloves, safety mask, safety helmet, safety goggles & earplug during starting of wall
blowing operation by operator & in coordination with Desk Engineer.
2. During blowing starting keep away from the peep holes.
3. During any jamming ensure proper isolation of the soot blower motor & the retract by using soot
blower handle.
4. Ensure proper rotation of the lance & no jamming movement should be found.
5. Total timing should be properly monitored by Desk Engineer and should be around 9.93 min.

8. LRSB not Retracting:

(a) Likely cause:
1. Mechanical jamming

2. Motor tripped on overload.

3. LRSB power cable failure.
4. Power supply failure.

(b) Plant Response:

1. soot blower may damage
2. Damage super heater coil due to steam erosion.

(c) Parameters of concern:

1. Specific zone metal temperature.

(d) Expected Operator Action:

1. Reduce soot blowing steam pressure and switch off LRSB power supply.
2 Retract Manually.
3 Inform to maintenance

10. Records:
Boiler Desk operator Log book/ Boiler “0” mtr Field Operator Log book
