The start up compartment should be fluidized separately, so that, other compartment materials may not mix with start up compartment. Check min and max fluidization. After fluidization, check and ensure the bed height of 280-300 in start up compartment and others are to be 340-360.During fluidization check and ensure the particular compartment PA Lines are free from any jam. 6.
