Terminology
Accuracy : Closeness with which an instrument reading approaches the true value of the variable being measured.Precision : A measure of reproducibility of the measurements; i.e. given a fixed value of a variable, precision is a measure of the degree which successive measurements differ from one another.Sensitivity : The ratio of output signal or response of the instrument to a change of input or measured variable.Resolution : The smallest change in measured value to which the instrument will respond.Error : Deviation from the true value of the measured variable.


Repeatability refers to the ability of a pressure sensor to provide the same output with successive applications of the same pressure.

Hysteresis is a sensor's ability to give the same output at a given pressure while increasing and decreasing the pressure.


Pressure : Definitions

Definition: Force per unit area

Absolute pressure

Atmospheric pressure

Differential pressure

Gauge pressure

Importance : Pressure measurement is critical for safe and optimum operation of processes such as steam generation, hydraulic equipment operation, air compression, vacuum processing etc.


Zero Reference , Gauge, Absolute, Atmospheric Pressure

Any pressure above atmosphere is called gauge pressure

Any pressure below atmosphere is a vacuum (negative gauge pressure)

Absolute pressure (psia) is measured from a perfect vacuum

Differential Pressure has no reference to either absolute vacuum or atmospheric pressure


Units
The SI unit for pressure is the Pascal (Pa);1Pa= 1 Nm-2 Non-SI unit pound (Lb) per square inch (psi) and bar are commonly usedPressure is sometimes expressed in grams-force/cm2or as kgf/cm2 (KSC)
1 atm=1.03 ksc=14.696 psi=760mmHg=10000 mmWC

=101325 Pa

Standard pressure:Pressure of normal (standard) atmosphere is defined as standard pressure


Pressure Measuring devices

Manometers

using water ,mercury and other liquids of known density

For measuring low pressures.

Mechanical/Elastic Pressure Sensors

Electrical Pressure Transducers

For measuring pressure of all ranges for telemetering purposes.

Manometer:

A simple pressure standard

May be used for gauge, differential, and absolute measurements with a suitable reference.

Useful mainly for lower pressure work because the height of the column of mercury will otherwise become very high.

The difference in column heights gives the pressure reading


Elastic Pressure Sensors

The basic pressure sensing elements:

A: C-shaped Bourdon tube , B: Helical Bourdon tube , C: flat diaphragm

D: Convoluted diaphragm, E: Capsule , F: Set of bellows


Electrical Pressure Sensors

Potentiometer Sensor

Inductive
Capacitive PiezoelectricStrain GaugeUsually generate output signals in the mV range (spans of 100 mV to 250 mV). In transmitters, these are amplified to the voltage level (1to 5 V) and converted to current loops, usually 4-20 mA dc


Pressure Switches

Applications

Alarm (Status)

Shutdown (Hi/Lo Limits)

Control (ON/OFF)

High Pressure In High Temperature

* When high process temperatures are present, various methods of isolating the pressure instrument from the process are used.

* These include siphons, chemical seals with capillary tubing for remote mounting, and purging.

Snubbers & its use

Chemical Seal

Siphon


Pressure Snubbers
To filter out pressure spikes, or to average out pressure pulses, snubbers are installed between the process and the instrumentInstrument indicates avg pr.
Snubber Before use After use

when one is interested in the measurement of fast, transient pressures (such as to initiate safety interlocks on rising pressures), snubbers must not be used, as they delay the response of the safety system.


Chemical Seal or diaphragm Protector

Chemical seals are used when media can falsify the pressure measurements due to high temperature, high viscosity or their property to crystallise


Siphon

A siphon is a coiled tube. This coil provides a large cooling surface and the trap created prevents the condensate from draining away.

A siphon is required for hot condensing. fluids, such as steam, to assure a liquid trap.

It is used to prevent live steam from entering and damaging the device.

It is used to protect the instrument from hydraulic or thermal shocks.

The two most common forms of siphon tube are the 'U' and Pigtail types.

Measurement: Flow

Types of flow meters:

Orifice Flow meter

Vortex flow meter

Ultrasonics flow meter

Coriolis Mass Flow meter

Major issues for selecting flow meters

Orifice Flow-meters

Several sensors rely on the pressure drop or head occurring as a fluid flows by a

resistance. The relationship between flow

rate and pressure difference is determined

by the Bernoulli equation.

Measurement: Flow

Orifice Flow-meters

An orifice plate is a restriction with an opening smaller than the pipe diameter which is inserted in the pipe; the typical orifice plate has a concentric, sharp edged opening.

Because of the smaller area the fluid velocity increases, causing a corresponding decrease in pressure.

The flow rate can be calculated from the measured pressure drop across the orifice plate, P1-P3.

The orifice plate is the most commonly used flow sensor, but it creates a rather large non-recoverable pressure due to the turbulence around the plate, leading to high energy consumption.

Measurement: Flow

Venturi Tube

The change in cross-sectional area in the venturi tube causes a pressure change between the convergent section and the throat, and the flow rate can be determined from this pressure drop. Although more expensive that an orifice plate; the venturi tube introduces substantially lower non-recoverable pressure drops

Measurement: Flow

Pitot Tubes

Pitot tubes were invented by Henri Pitot in 1732 to measure the flowing velocity of fluids. Basically a differential pressure (dp) flow meter, a pitot tube measures two pressures: the static and the total impact pressure.
Pitot tubes are used to measure air flow in pipes, ducts, stacks, and liquid flow in pipes, open channels.While accuracy and rangeability are relatively low, pitot tubes are simple, reliable, inexpensive, and suited for a variety of environmental conditions, including extremely high temperatures and a wide range of pressures.

Measurement: Flow

Pitot Tubes
A single-port pitot tube can measure the flow velocity at only a single point in the cross-section of a flowing stream. The probe must be inserted to a point in the flowing stream where the flow velocity is the average of the velocities across the cross-section, and its impact port must face directly into the fluid flow.

Measurement: Flow

Pitot Tubes

The point velocity of approach (VP) can be calculated by taking the square root of the difference between the total impact pressure (PT) and the static pressure (P) and multiplying that by the C/D ratio, where C is a dimensional constant and D is density:
The pitot tube measures the static and dynamic (or impact) pressures of the fluid at one point in the pipe. The flow rate can be determined from the difference between the static and dynamic pressures which is the velocity head of the fluid flow.

Measurement: Flow

Vortex Flow-meters
This measuring principle is based on the fact that vortices are formed downstream of an obstacle in afluidflow, e.g. behind a bridge pillar. This phenomenon is commonly known as the Krmn vortex street.

Measurement: Flow

Vortex Flow-meters

This is detected by a sensor, such as capacitive sensor and fed to the electronic processor as a primary, digitized, linear signal.

Capacitive sensors with integrated temperature measurement can directly register the massflow of saturated steam as well.
Universally suitable for measuring liquids, gases and steam Largely unaffected by changes in pressure, temperature and viscosity High long-term stability (lifetime K factor), no zero-point drift No moving parts Marginal pressure loss

Measurement: Flow

Ultrasonic flow-meters

Swimming against theflow requires more power and more time than swimming with theflow. Ultrasonic flow measurement is based on this elementary transit time difference effect.
Two sensors mounted on the pipe simultaneously send and receive ultrasonic pulses. At zeroflow, both sensors receive the transmitted ultrasonic wave at the same time, i.e. without transit time delay.When thefluid is in motion, the waves of ultrasonic sound do not reach the two sensors at the same time.

Measurement: Flow

This measured "transit time difference" is directly proportional to theflow velocity and therefore toflow volume. By using the absolute transit times both the averaged fluid velocity and the speed of sound can be calculated. Ultrasonic flow meters measure the difference of the propagation time (transit time) of ultrasonic pulses propagating in (normally an inclination angle around 30 to 45 is used) flow direction and against the flow direction. This time difference is a measure for the averaged velocity of the fluid along the path of the ultrasonic beam

Measurement: Flow


Advantages:
With homogeneousfluids, the principle is independent of pressure, temperature, conductivity and viscosity Usable for a wide range of nominal diameters Direct meter installation on existing pipesNon-invasive measurement No pipe constrictions, no pressure losses No moving parts. Minimum outlay for maintenance and upkeep

Measurement: Flow

Coriolis Mass Flow-meters
If a moving mass is subjected to an oscillation perpendicular to its direction of movement, Coriolis forces occur depending on the massflow. A Coriolis massflow meter has oscillation measuring tubes to precisely achieve this effect.
Coriolis forces are generated when afluid (= mass)flows through these oscillating tubes. Sensors at the inlet and outlet ends register the resultant phase shift in the tube's oscillation geometry.

Measurement: Flow

Coriolis Mass Flow-meters

The processor analyzes this information and uses it to compute the rate of massflow.

Advantage

This principle is used in a huge range of industry sectors, including pharmaceuticals, chemicals and petrochemicals, oil and gas, food etc.

THE RESISTANCE OF A CONDUCTOR CHANGES WHEN ITS TEMPERATURE IS CHANGED .THIS PROPERTY IS UTILISED TO MEASURE THE TEMPERATURE.

Rt = Ro (1+dT)

THERMISTORS

THERMISTORS ARE GENERALLY COMPOSED OF SEMICONDUCTOR MATERIALS.THEY HAVE A NEGATIVE COEFFICIENT OF TEMPERATURE SO RESISTANCE DECREASES WITH INCREASE IN TEMP.

Making use of Negative Temperature Coefficient characteristics, thermistor and can be applied in temperature compensation, inrush current limit, precision temp. control (temp. coefficient very large compared to RTC & T/C) etc.

WHY AT ALL A PROTECTIVE SYSTEM IS REQUIRED FOR THE BOILER?

THE BOILERS FURNACE IS CONTINUOUSLY FED WITH HIGH CALORIFIC VALUE ATOMISED FUEL WHICH IS IN THE PROCESS OF CONTINUOUS BUT CONTROLLED COMBUSTION.

COMBUSTION-THE PROCESS

COMBUSTION IS A RAPID BURNING OF OXYGEN WITH FUEL RESULTING IN RELEASE OF HEAT. AIR IS ABOUT 21% OXYGEN AND 78% NITROGEN BY VOLUME. MOST FUELS CONTAIN CARBON, HYDROGEN AND SULPHUR. A SIMPLIFIED COMBUSTION PROCESS COULD BE

CARBON+OXYGEN=CARBONDIOXIDE+ HEAT

HYDROGEN+DO =WATER VAPOUR + HEAT

SULPHUR +DO =SULPHURDIOXIDE+ HEAT

WHICH MEANS THAT THE FINAL DESIRED PRODUCT OF THE PROCESS IS HEAT WHICH WE REQUIRE TO BOIL THE WATER


FSSS

COMBUSTION-THE PROBLEM : WHEN THIS CONTROLLED BURNING GOES OUT OF CONTROL DUE TO AN IMBALANCE IN THE FUEL/AIR RATIO, THERE IS EITHER A FUEL RICH MIXTURE OR A FUEL LEAN MIXTURE. IN BOTH CASES THE FLAME QUALITY BECOMES POOR. THERE IS A CHANCE OF FUEL ACCUMULATION WHICH CAN LATER ON IGNITE SUDDENLY AND CAUSE EXPLOSIONS.

SO FSSS IS USED FOR SAFE AND ORDERLY STARTUP AND SHUTDOWN OF BOILER THROUGH VARIOUS INTERLOCKS AND PROTECTIONS

THE PROTECTIVE SYSTEM IN THE BOILER IS DESIGNED BASICALLY TO PREVENT OCCURRENCE OF SUCH SITUATIONS BY TAKING ADVANCE ACTIONS.


N.F.P.A Guide line & Boiler Protection

N.F.P.A- National Furnace Protection Association, USA

Deals with protection for various types of furnace

Protection of Pulverized fuel fired boiler is governed by Section-85c

Different categories of protection:

a) Mandatory, b)Mandatory & automatically generated, c) Optional but alarm has to be there


BOILER FLAME & FLAME SCANNERS

It looks rather static, but in reality the fire energy fluctuates rapidly. The Fuel and Oxygen in the uncontrolled fire constantly burn as in small explosions and then sucks new Fuel & Oxygen to the flames. This process causes the flame flicker.

Flicker frequency for oil

flame is more than that of coal flame.

AUTOMATIC CONTROL SYSTEM & POWER PLANT CONTROL LOOP

PROCESS: Process refers to the method of changing or refining raw materials to create the desired end product. The raw materials may undergo physical, chemical, or thermal state changes during the Process.
Process is of Two Types :
A) Continuous and B) Batch

Continuous Process is one where the change of state of Input into Output occurs continuously.

Ex.: Power Plant Process, Petroleum Industry etc.

Batch Process is one where a Batch of the Product is produced and the Process stops till production of next Batch is started.

Ex.: Automobile Production



PROCESS CONTROL: Process control techniques are developed over the years to have
Quality of the end productEconomy of productionAbility to cater to emergencies and bring the process to safe shutdown.
CONTROLLED CONDITION: The physical quantity or condition of a process or machine which is to be controlled

CONTROL SYSTEM: An arrangement of elements interconnected and interacting in such a way that it can maintain some condition of a process or machine in a prescribed manner



OPEN AND CLOSED LOOP CONTROL:

A Closed Loop Control (CLCS) is one where a Process Variable is measured, compared to a Set Value and action is taken to correct any Deviation or Error from Set Value. The continuous Measurement of PV and its comparison to Set Point closes the Loop.

An Open Loop Control(OLCS) is one where the PV is not compared with Set Value and action taken, but action is taken without regard to conditions of PV.



OPEN LOOP CONTROL:

Open Loop Control is accomplished by the following means:
Group ControlSub-Group ControlSub-Loop ControlDrive Level ControlProgrammable Logic Control(PLC)Group Control : Start and Stoppage of a Group of equipment is accomplished by Group Control(GC).
Ex. :CEP GC, Equipment Cooling GC etc.



OPEN LOOP CONTROL:

Sub-Group Control : Start and Stoppage of an equipment with its associated auxiliaries in Step-Sequence manner is done by Sub-Group Control. Operator intervention is not required in Sub-Group Control(SGC).

Sub-Loop Control: Start and Stoppage of auxiliaries of an equipment is carried out by Sub-Loop Control(SLC)

Drive Level Control : Start and Stop or Opening and Closure of a Drive is carried out by Drive Control. The Drive logic shall have Protection, release ,auto and manual commands and these are executed as per pre-determined logic.



CLCS TERMINOLOGY:

Desired Value or Set Point : The value of the variable/parameter which needs to be controlled at the required condition.

Process Variable(PV) : The present value of the Parameter of Process at that particular instant. This is sometimes referred as Measured Value.

Error/Deviation : It is the Difference between Set Point and Process Variable, and can be +ve or ve. It has three components: a) Magnitude b) Duration and c) Rate of change.

Controller : A Controller is a device that receives data from a Measurement Instrument, compares the data with the Set Point and if necessary, signals a Control element to take Corrective action. This Corrective action ensures that the PV shall always be maintained at the Set Value.

The Controller can be a) Electronic, b) Pneumatic and c) Hydraulic type.


Controller types: Functionally, Controllers can be
a) Continuous and b) Step Controllers.

Depending on the control loop; controller action can be adjusted as (i) Direct acting:-Increase of process value increases controller output

(ii) Reverse acting:- Increase of process value decreases controller output
Control Element : The Control or Correcting Element is the part of the Control System that acts to physically change the Manipulated Variable.
Ex. : Control Valves, Louvers or Dampers, Solenoids, Pump Motors etc.


Bump less Transfer : The arrangement where the transfer from auto to manual mode does not affect the process.Proportional Control : The Proportional (P) action responds only to a change in the magnitude of Error(e) i.e. controller output changes by an amount which is proportional to error.
Output change of Controller in % = (Error change in %)(Gain), where Gain is called the Controller gain. The reciprocal of Gain is termed as Proportional Band(PB) and is expressed in %.

Proportional Band(PB): The change in deviation required to cause the output of the controller to change from one extreme to the other.
Integral Control : In Integral Control, the Controller output is a function of the Duration of Error(e).



Hence, the Controller output is the time Integral of Error and the time set is Integral Action Time(IAT) i.e. IAT can be defined as time taken for the integral action to change output by the same amount as the proportion action .

Usually, both P and I Controls are combined and the Controllers are tuned to minimize Error(e) and controller is termed as PI controller.

Derivative Control : Derivative or Rate Controllers output is Proportional to the rate of change of Error(e). The Control action is termed as D. The action is to apply an immediate response that is equal to the P+I action that would have occurred some time in the future.



Important Closed Loop Controls in a Thermal Power Plant:

a) Furnace Draft Control

b) Boiler Drum Level Control

c) HOT well & D/A level control

d) Main Steam Temperature Control

e) Air and Fuel Flow to Boiler Control

f) SH & RH spray control

g) Coordinated Master Control(CMC)

h) Turbine Speed, Pressure and Load Control



Coordinated Master Control

This is an integrated automatic control of unit operation. There is a continuous co ordination between boiler and turbine control to maintain a balance between steam generation and steam consumption.

Boiler Follow Mode (BFM)

Turbine Follow Mode (TFM)

Co-ordinated Master Control (CMC)

Runback Mode



Boiler Follow Mode (BFM)

Unit load control from turbine local load set point

Change in turbine load set point will modulate turbine CVs

Boiler master output gets corrected to maintain throttle pr dev.

Boiler control will follow turbine control

BLI signal as feed forward signal for boiler firing rate control

Result - Boiler acts as throttle pr controller where turbine is in load controller mode



Turbine Follow Mode (TFM)

Unit target load set point goes to boiler master

Change in BLI will modulate turbine CVs

Boiler master output gets corrected to maintain Unit load dev.

Turbine control will follow boiler control

Load deviation as feed orward signal for boiler firing rate control

Result - Boiler acts as load controller where turbine is in pressure controller mode



Coordinated Master Control

Unit load is set from unit master.

Unit master demand is limited by unit capability , TSE margins and unit max/min load set points.

Unit target load is derived from unit master after the limitations.

Unit target load is used as feed forward signal to the boiler firing rate control.

Turbine control utilises the unit load as turbine load set point after adapting the same by steam generation delay.

In TG throttle pressure is maintained by correcting the BMD output depending on the throttle pr dev.

Result: Balance is achieved between steam generation and steam consumption PROPER COORDINATION BETWEEN BOILER CONTROL AND TURBINE CONTROL

BOP-C&I SYSTEM

CONSISTS OF OPEN LOOP CONTROL SYSTEM (OLCS) AND CLOSED LOOP CONTROL SYSTEM (CLCS)
OLCS - THE SEQUENCE CONTROL, INTERLOCK OF ALL THE PLANT SYSTEMS WHICH ARE NOT COVERED IN THE SG-C&I AND TG-C&I. THIS INCLUDES MAJOR AUXILIARIES LIKE FD/ID/PA FANS, AIR-PREHEATER, BFP/CEP/CWP/ BCWP , DMCWP/CLCWP AND ELECTRICAL BREAKERS.CLCS - THE MODULATING CONTROL FOR VARIOUS IMPORTANT PLANT PARAMETERS, LIKE FW FLOW (DRUM LEVEL), FURNACE DRAFT, COMBUSTION CONTROL (FUEL FLOW AND AIR FLOW), PA HDR PRESSURE CONTROL, DEAERATOR/HOTWELL/HEATER LEVEL CONTROLS ETC.


DDCMIS

WHY DDCMIS ?
VERY HIGH FLEXIBILITY FOR MODIFICATION IN CONTROL STRATEGY VERY HIGH SELF-DIAGNOSTIC VERY LOW DRIFT (ONLY IN I/O CARDS) , HENCE NO NEED OF FREQUENT RE-CALIBRATIONMUCH HIGHER RELIABILITY (BASED ON MTBF)BETTER LONG TERM SUPPORT DUE TO CHANGING TECHNOLOGYMUCH BETTER OPERATOR INTERFACE


DDCMIS

SALIENT FEATURES OF DDCMIS
INTEGRATED PLANT CONTROL FOR SG, TG AND BALANCE OF PLANT CONTROL
IT MAY BE REMEMBERED THAT HISTORICALLY THE TERM DDCMIS USED REFER TO THE SO-CALLED BOP-C&I . THE SG-C&I, i.e. FSSS etc. TG-C&I i.e. ATRS, TURBINE PROTECTION etc. ORIGINALLY WERE NOT CONSIDERED UNDER DDCMIS OR DCS AS PER MANY SUPPLIERS. ONLY RECENTLY THE TYPE OF SYSTEMS FOR ALL THE SYSTEMS HAVE BECOME SIMILAR (WITH SOME DIFFERENCE WHICH WILL BE DISCUSSED LATER), WE TEND TO CONSIDER THESE SYSTEMS UNDER DDCMIS.

INFERENCE : 2009-10 C&I OUTAGE ANALYSIS

Major factors contributing to C&I outage in 2009-10:
Control System related failure
2. Field Device Failure

3. Soft ware/Card Failure

4. Power Supply/Relay failure

5. Human error

BEST PRACTICES COMPILED/ADOPTED IN NTPC C&I
All unit protections are provided with 2/3 logic and audio visual alarm is provided on 1/3 to operator on actuation of any one sensor wherever possible with proper approval. Use of headless RTD in tripping circuit of ID/PA/FD fans & BFPs.Resistance mapping of critical solenoids including cable during overhauls and monitoring trend to identify any defects.Marking of trip related devices and Junction Boxes marked in RED color. Regular calibration of all important instruments which have a bearing on unit safety, reliability and efficiency. Instruments are calibrated against standard instruments with traceability to NABL.

For handling of electrostatic sensitive electronic hardware, electrostatic bags, wrist straps and other ESD handling devices are employed in control panels and lab. All Laboratories are provided with ESD proof workstations. Disable removable drives of servers and workstations.Single source responsibility for software backup of DCS and storage in fire proof cabinets in two different locations.Detailed work instruction are prepared and followed for working on all trip related devices.

A single source responsibility is fixed for the generation and maintenance of system passwords so as to maintain system securityInternal quality inspection for critical checks during overhauls to ensure quality in overhaul worksNear miss situations are monitored and analyzed. The learning from this area used to formulate strategies to avoid spurious outages.All power supply voltages are monitored with a fixed periodicity and maintained within /- 10% of the rated value.

Fuses used in UPS and protection circuits are replaced with new fuses of same rating and type during every overhaul Earth voltages in control panels are monitored on a predetermined frequency and the values are recorded for trendingAll bus terminators are checked during every overhaul for ensuring integrity of bus communication in DDCMIS systemsLoad testing of power supplies for critical applications and replacement of power supply modules or electrolytic capacitor and power transistors used in power supply if found deteriorated.

Other important actions taken for forced outage reduction
Rerouting of control & power cables in hot zonesPanel power supply monitoring in regular intervals.CER/UCB temperature and humidity monitoring online. Insisting for performance of the A/C systemChecking and tightening power supply cables during overhaulEnsuring healthiness of cabinet cooling fans.

Other important actions taken for forced outage reduction
Panel cooling fans supply segregation from system supply with MCB / fuse.Cleaning of air filters on panels periodicallyServo valve replacement/ servicing in hydraulic drives.Individual fuse protection in 220VDC MFT for HOTV, LOTV, HORV, Scanner emergency air damper solenoids

Commissioning of non commissioned systemsSoot blowing Steam Pr. Control valve:
Status- Actuator damaged while commissioning. BHEL has placed PO on OEM M/s MIL for procurement of damaged parts

b) Commissioning of SWAS analyzers:

Status-Procurement of Reagents for reagent based measurement (i.e. Silica etc.) is in process.

Suggested to take up with OEM (Forbes Marshall) through BHEL for commissioning of electrode based measurements (i.e. conductivity etc.)

Looking from WBPDCL Santaldih Perspective

KEY THRUST AREAS


c) Electromatic Relief Valve (ERV):

Status- Solenoid Installed and cabling done

d) APH Rotor stop alarm:

Status- Issue pending with BHEL for longtime. Alternative scheme through DDCMIS suggested by fixing proximity switch on APH rotor shaft at support brg. end.
APH fire detection alarm:
Status- Issue pending with BHEL for longtime. Alternative scheme by measuring APH metal temp. using thermocouples in Air & Gas path may be thought of.


f) Commissioning/testing of Back up (Back up of MAX DNA system work stations)Push Button console for unit control:

Suggested to test the operation of various push buttons at the time of Start up/ Shutdown of unit jointly with operation.

2. Rectification of long pending problems:

a) Problem of SADC systems

Status: Operation of some of the dampers erratic and needed frequent adjustment due to unreliable performance of actuator/positioner

Suggested to procure 04 nos. actuator with positioner of reputed manufacturer for replacement in one elevation on trial basis


b) High PA flow to Mills:

In auto PA flow of all mills are about 30% more than characteristic flow. PA flow curve for sliding set point may be set as per mill design.

Also provision of manual set point may be explored to cater poor coal quality

3. Setting up of C&I Lab with requisite facilities

4.Enhancing reliability of Field Instruments
Proper glanding/ sealing of field instruments, control valves, routing & dressing of cables, ensuring cleanliness & closure of all LIEs etc.


5. Sealing & Cable dressing in MAX DNA panels during unit Shutdown

6. Disabling various ports for removable drives of MAX DNA work stations for system reliability

7. Installation of ON Line printers of MAX DNA system for daily LOGs. Daily LOGs are essential for analysis of different plant parameters by O&E dept.
Replacement of unreliable instruments by quality instruments
c) Marking of protection related JBs to avoid human error

Regular walk down check in various areas to ensure the healthiness of field instruments.

9.Implementation of regular cleaning schedule & preventive mtc. Schedule for Boiler, Turbine and common systems

10.Prepartion of detail job list for unit overhauling

11. Review of spares status and timely action for procurement for breakdown(corrective), preventive and overhauling maintenance.


8. Cleanliness of NETWORK ROOM & EWS room to be ensured. Monitoring of Temp. & Humidity of CER, UCB , NETWORK & EWS rooms.
