LUBE OIL SYSTEM/ 01
OBJECTIVE: For Safe & Smooth Operation of Turbine-generator lube oil system.
SCOPE: This SOP is applicable for Lube oil system for the steam turbine& generator Make DEC
China,Type. N600-16.7/538/538, of subcritical three cylinder/four flow, single shaft/single intermediate
reheat, condensing type.This procedure covers all the standard operating procedures related with lube
oil system of T.G.
INTRODUCTION: The lubricating oil system is provided to supply the lubricating oil for the
pedestal and thrust bearings of turbine-generator and for the turning gear. It also supplies the reserve
oil for the hydrogen seal oil system and the pressure oil for the mechanical overspeed trip device and
sufficient oil to the jacking oil pump
The lubricating oil system contains Main oil tank, MOP, BOP coupled with OIL TURBINE, TOP, EOP,
MSP, jacking oil pump(JOP), oil cooler and oil overflow valve etc. During the normal operation of the
unit, the inlet(suction) oil of MOP and the lubricating oil of the unit are supplied by the Booster oil
pump(BOP) which is installed inside the main oil tank. The pressure oil from the outlet of the main oil
pump is fed back to the BOP as its suction oil & this oil fed to oil-turbine mounted on the BOP shaft
which rotates the BOP. oil turbine on one hand utilizes the pressure of MOP discharge pressure for
rotating the booster oil pump(BOP) & after utilizing the pressure oil the oil gets depressurized & sent to
bearings as lube oil.When the unit is started and speeding up, or shut down, it is the TOP that feeds the
lubricating oil system. In the event of failure of the TOP, the EOP will take its place to maintain the
pressure of lubricating oil. The MSP supplies oil to the inlet of the main oil pump when the speed of the
turbine rotor is below 2850r/min. The jacking oil system is equipped with three pumps, comprising two
ACJOP and one DCJOP, which are started before the unit is turned by the turning gear to reduce the
start torque of the turning gear and prevent the shaft from rubbing against the bearing pad.

OPERATING PROCEDURES FOR MAIN START UP PUMP (MSP)
INTRODUCTION: Main startup pump(MSP) supplies oil to Main Oil pump (MOP) for suction head. At the
time of Turbine costing down, when turbine speed reduces to about 95%of rated speed(2850 RPM), the
discharge pressure of main oil pump is not high enough to drive booster pump, resulting in the shortage
of oil at main oil pump inlet. For safety sake MSP shall be started to feed oil to main oil pump inlet. There
is one AC motor driven MSP for supplying oil to MOP. During turbine rolling ,After TG attains a speed of
>2850 rpm, the shaft mounted Main Oil Pump (MOP) takes over and MSP is to be stopped. MSP is to be
kept select in ‘AUTO’ whenever the turbine is running. MSP is interlocked to start when the MOP suction
pressure falls below 0.07mpa.This is realized by electric interlock via pressure switch.

OPERATING PROCEDURES FOR JACKING OIL PUMP(JOP)

INTRODUCTION When turbine units are in stationary state, jacking oil is supplied to rotor journal
bearings to jack or lift the rotor so that barring gear can smoothly turn rotor. The oil source of jacking oil
pump is the lubricating oil coming out of oil cooler with a pressure of about 0.176MPa, which can
effectively prevent JOP from cavitations corrosion due to air suction. Sucked oil is filtered through a
25µm duplex filter before flowing into jacking oil pump. After oil pressure boosted by jacking oil pump, oil
pressure at pump outlet is 16MPa.The pressure oil passes through discharge filter and finally flows into
each bearing through one way valve and throttle valves.There is Two AC motor driven jack oil
pump(JOP) and one DC driven jacking oil pump for the turbo generator. The jacking oil pump supplies
high pressure oil to each of turbo generator bearings(Bearings 3,4,5,6,7,8,)to jack up the rotor, thus
reducing the shaft to bearing metal frictional resistance during barring operation.
Normally the Two AC driven JOP runs for barring gear. In the event of TG tripping due to total plant AC
failure or outage of Both AC JOP due to any reason, the DC driven JOP is to be run.

start the AC JOP.
EMERGENCY SHUT DOWN
1 If JOP trips in emergency,barring gear will stop. √ √
2 Turn the turbine rotor by manual barring gear. √ √
1 Allow start jacking oil pump: Jacking oil pump inlet oil pressure not
low
2 jacking oil pump auto start:
1)Rotor rotate speed <2500rpm

2)Running pump A tripped (3-second pulse) and standby pump

interlock start .
3)Running pump outlet header pressure ”L”

3 When the running pump is tripped, the standby pump interlock start
failed, interlock start jacking oil pump C(DC JOP)
4 jacking oil pump auto stop:
Jacking oil pump inlet oil pressure is low and delay 5s.
Turbine rotor speed >2500rpm(3-second pulse)
OPERATING PROCEDURES FOR VAPOR EXHAUST FAN -2 nos.
INTRODUCTION During normal running of turbine , the lube oil supplied to various bearings comes
in to contact with condensate steam/water particles due to leakage through steam sealing rings& oil
catcher rings of journal & thrust bearings causing contamination of return oil. Further due to friction &
temperature rise in the system oil vapor will produce in the system.
Hence it is necessary to safely discharge the above oil & vapor fumes in to atmosphere for maintaining
the supply oil quality . for this purpose vapor exhaust fan (2 nos. )installed at the top of main oil tank

Sr. RESPONSIBILITY
Description
No. UCE DE FE EE
PRE- START CHECKS:
2 Power and control supplies are available. √ √
3 Ensure free rotation of fan motor √
4 Insure inlet v/v of vapor exhaust fan is open √ √
5 When starting the one fan the outlet v/v of second fan must be closed √
START PERMISSIVE :
1 Power control supply is normal √
START UP SEQUENCE :
1 Start the Fan by giving Start command from DCS √
2 Check the normal current of mootor √ √
3 check for any abnormal sound or vibration. √ √
4 Check for MOT tank vacuum - it should be around 100-200 kpa. √ √
SHUTDOWN SEQUENCE:
PLANNED SHUTDOWN :
1 If all the pumps of lubricating oil system has stopped & temperature √
of return oil is below 40 Deg C. then vapor exhaust fan can be √
stopped

2 Close the suction & discharge v/v (dampers) of Fan √
TRIPPING OF Fan :If suddenly vapor exhaust fan trips

1 When the fan is at standby status, if the running fan stops, the √
standby fan will start. √ √
