Supply nitrogen gas to pressurize the stator coil water tank for isolating the air. To send the alarm signals as the liquid (oil or water) leakage to inside of generator. 1.2 Gas Supply The Hydrogen Gas Supply (IOMKG08) provides the necessary valves, pressure gauges, regulators, and other equipment to permit introducing hydrogen or preventing the flow of hydrogen into the generator. It also provides means of controlling the gas pressure within the generator housing either manually by means of valves or by means of pressure regulators in hydrogen pressure control unit, which are manually adjustable to give the desired machine gas pressure. The carbon dioxide supply (OMKG02) provides a means of admitting CO; to the generator during the gas purging operation. CO» should never be permitted to flow into the stator coil water system, because of the solubility of the gas and its detrimental effect on the conductivity of water. ‘The gas, either hydrogen or carbon dioxide is distributed uniformly to the various compartments of the generator by means of perforated pipe manifolds located in the top and bottom of the generator housing. 1.3 Gas Dryer The adsorbing type Gas Dryers (IOMKG51AT001), with two towers, is fully automatic, and thus does not require operator attention to accomplish the necessary periodic reactivation of the desiccant. The towers are interconnected by two four-way valves actuated by a timer-controlled, air-operated switching mechanism, across the generator fan and one hydrogen gas blower (10MKGSOANO01) mounted in piping at inlet of gas dryer, so that gas is circulated thru the dryer in any time. Continuous operation is maintained by automatically switching back and forth between towers, enabling one tower to undergo reactivation while the other remains on-line. Two dew point meters (1OMKGS1CMO001 and 10MKGS1CM002), which are mounted at inlet and outlet of gas dryer, are used to monitor the gas humidity in the generator and adsorbent activity of dryer respectively. In normal operation the water separated from the hydrogen by the dryer is stored in a small water pot and should be mechanical drained automatically. Please refer to the Instruction Manual of the manufacturer for detail. 1.4 Liquid Detectors The Liquid Detectors (1(0MKG4ICL001, 10MKG42CL001, 10MKG43CL001, 10MKG44CL001 [Document NO.: TRIYQOA460F563 Page 4 of 22 Rasy tie Sunes SYSTEM OPERATION AND | — PROJECT 1980 MW (2x660 MW MAINTENANCE MANUAL, PHASE I + 1*660 MW Phasell) | GENERATOR GAS TIRODA THERMAL POWER and 10MKG4SCLO01) are Float-operated switch in small housings which is mounted under the generator frame and under the main lead box to indicate the presence of any liquid in the generator which might be due to leakage or condensation from the cooler or from the seal oil system. Openings are provided in each frame ring at the bottom of the frame so that any liquid collected will drain to these liquid detectors. Each detector is provided with a vent return line to the generator frame so that the drain line from the generator frame will not become gas bound, Isolating valves are provided in both the vent and drain lines so that the switches can be inspected at any time, and a drain is provided for the removal of any accumulated liquid 15 Gas Purity Analyzer ‘The purity of the gas in the generator is determined by the use of the Thermal Conductivity Purity Analyzer (1OMKG30CQ001), The gas purity analyzer is a scavenging type system. The analyzed gas sample comes from the inside of generator, then thru the purity analyzer, and finally vents out toa safe vent line. The purity analyzer with its triple-range sensor cell is capable of measuring 80 to 100 percent Hy in air, 0 to 100 percent Hp in COp and 0 to 100 percent COr in air. It continuously analyzes the generator cooling gas, displays gas purity in real time and has a corresponding 4-20mA output. In the event that the gas purity falls to a waming or alarm level, a visual indication is given and alarm contracts are switched. The purity analyzer triple-range sensor cell also monitors purge gases used during generator start-up, shutdown and maintenance. Purge gas purity is displayed and a corresponding 4-20mA. ‘output is provided for Hy in CO> or COp in Air The purity analyzer measures the concentration of a gas in a binary gas mixture by measuring the thermal conductivity of the sample gas and comparing it to the thermal conductivity of a selected reference gas, Two ultta-stable, glass-coated thetmistors are used: one in contact with the sample gas, and the other in contact with a selected reference gas. The thermistors are mounted so that they are in close proximity to the stainless steel walls of the sample chamber. The entire sensor is heated to 55 deg C, (or 70 deg C) and the thermistors are heated above the sensor temperature using a constant current source. The thermistors lose heat to the walls of the sample chamber at a rate that is proportional to the thermal conductivity of the gas surrounding them. Thus, each thermistor will reach a different equilibrium temperature. The temperature difference between the two thermistors is detected in an electrical bridge circuit. It is then amplified and converted to a 4-20mA output proportional to the concentration of one of the constituents of the binary gas mixture, Use of a sample system is mandatory. The sample system contains a pressure regulator, gas filter, ges flow meter and sensor socket. In general, a sample system must deliver a clean, representative sample to the thermal conductivity purity at a temperature, pressure and flow rate that is within acceptable limits. Two switch assemblies are provided with the gas purity which is set to produce a "Hydrogen Purity High or Low" alarm when the purity signal rise up or fall below exceeds predetermined limits Refer to Gas Purity analyzer instruction book for detail 1.6 Hydrogen Pressure Control Unit The hydrogen pressure control unit (IOMKG20) consists of valves for gas purging, pressure regulator, inlet and outlet pressure transmitters, a hydrogen flow meter and bypass valve.

It displays the gas pressure from in real time and has a corresponding 4-20mA output, In the event that the gas pressure falls or rises to a warning or alarm level contracts are switched in DCS. 1.7 Hydrogen Gas Coolers ‘The hydrogen is cooled by passing it through coolers where the gas gives up its heat to the cooling water in the finned tubes of the coolers. Refer to the Generator Instruction Book under Description for detail. 1.8 Nitrogen Supply The nitrogen gas supply including gas manifold (1OMKG06), pressure regulators, pressure gauges, refer to Gas system P&ID, is used to pressurize water tank of the stator coil cooling water system. The pressure of nitrogen in water tank is maintained at 14kPa by the pressure regulator to isolate the air providing the stator coils against corrosion due to the air exists. 1.9 CO; Heater In order to prevent CO; flows into generator in liquid or in frost status when larger flow is needed, a CO; Heater (10MKG03AH001) is arranged in series with the CO: supply piping. The heater is built in electrical heater, The heater is furnished with safety valve and temperature controller, 1.10 Hydrogen Leakage Detector Hydrogen Leakage detector (10MKG35) is an automatic online monitoring equipment to detect generator hydrogen leaking points. The device can scan and check sample-gas from 8 sampling points automatically and continuously. It sends a 4~20mA DC analog signals (corresponding hydrogen purity in air is 0-4%) to indicate in the central control room and the hydrogen purity high alarm should be sent when the hydrogen purity at any sampling point is higher than 2%, Please refer to the Instruction Manual of the manufacture for detail. 111 Hi; Blower A Hz blower (IOMKGSOAN001) mounted the inlet of gas dryer is used to adding the gas flow thru gas dryer, Enhancing the drying efficient of dryer and make dryer can dry Hp gas in generator when generator is shutdown.

RECEIVING, HANDLING AND STORAGE. 21 General ‘The hydrogen gas system consists of a number of items such as piping, manifolds, valves, gauges, hydrogen dryer and hydrogen purity monitoring equipment. In general, these various items are shipped as individual items and are field assembled to form a complete gas system. 2.2 Receiving When the various components reach their destination, the purchaser should examine them with the deputy of the manufacturer and if damage is noted, file claim as soon as possible with the delivering carrier. 2.3. Handling When the enclosure is lifted, care should be exercised to avoid bumping or otherwise damaging the instruments or other components. 24 Storage If the various components are to be stored at the plant site, they should be adequately protected from the weather and mechanical damage. DOCUMENT NO.: TRIYQOA460F563 Page 7 of 22 ‘| Ef Ku 3.2 GENERATOR GAS TIRODA THERMAL POWER SYSTEM OPERATION AND | PROJECT 1980 MW (2*660 MW MAINTENANCE MANUAL PHASE I + 1x660 MW Phase I) : ripen) 3 ERECTION OF THE GENERATOR GAS SYSTEM General In order that the gas will be sufficiently gas tight, it is important that all gasket joints and other connections in the system be assembled properly. The section of the Generator Instruction Book under Erection of the generator gives instructions for assembling the various gasket parts of the machine. The gas piping between the generator and the various components of the gas system should be held in suitable supports or brackets to avoid vibration. All piping must have provisions for draining at all low points. If the valve end connections are of the socket weld style, care should be taken to insure that the valve is in the full open position before welding. If ball valves are used in Gas System, first spot-weld the both fittings of the ball valve, then remove the valve body from the fittings and complete the welding. Good welding practices should be followed when welding the valve in line. High weld heats should be avoided and the valve should be allowed to cool between passes. ‘Testing Generator and Gas System for Leaks As a part of the erection procedure, the generator and gas system should be tested at 0.IMPa and 0. SMPa with air pressure to prove that they are satisfactory from a leakage standpoint. This test should be made with the generator and all associated oil and gas piping completely assembled and with oil circulating thru the gland seals. The hydrogen side seal oil pump should be in operation. The allowable leakage is 0.51 m°/day at 0.1MPa and 2.4 m'/day at 0.5MPa pressure when use air asa leak test media. Dry air should be used for the pressure test. (1) Leak Detection If the leakage rate is not within the specified limits a systematic search for leaks should be made either with soap or other liquid solutions or by means of leak detectors with Freon 12. The use of odorants such as ether is not recommended, Liquid soap solutions provide a relatively quick and simple method of leak detection and evaluation. They are not suitable for in accessible parts or for very small leaks, Solutions of industrial or domestic liquid soap with the addition of glycerine as a thickening agent are satisfactory. It should not be used for insulated parts. The location of leaks may be determined by injecting Freon 12 gas into the generator at the rate of kg per 30m’ of machine volume. Very small quantities of Freon at leakage points can be detected with the aid of suitable halide detectors. To inject Freon 12 into the generator proceed as follows: a, Close the isolate valves of dew point meter sensor. b. Disconnect and blank off the hydrogen feed line if this has not been done already. €. Connect the Freon bottle into the carbon dioxide feed line by means of the carbon dioxide manifold or into the temporary air connection. The amount of Freon injected is determined by weighing the bottle before and after the injection. 4, Disconnect the airline. (2) Leakage Sources, Search Procedure and Corrective Action ‘The following remarks apply broadly to all detection methods used with air in the machine. a Generator Frame and Lead Box Page 8 of 22 [pocument NO.: TR/YQOA460F563 Brg hu? pee GENERATOR GAS [_‘TIRODA THERMAL POWER Jf BT | system OPERATION AND | PROJECT 1980 MW (2x660 MW Sranonn veces | MAINTENANCE MANUAL PHASE I + 1x660 MW Phase II) Check bearing bracket and lead box joints, lead bushings, gas cooler flexible end piping connections and RTD or thermocouple boards. Tighten bolts in sequence sueh that loads on gasket or other joints are evenly spread, This usually means that the tightening of one bolt is followed by another on an opposite diameter. The tightening of each bolt should not be completed at one time but should proceed by stages ‘When new gaskets are required, consult the gasket drawing and the specification for gasket installation in the section of the Generator Instruction Book under Erection of the generator. If segmented gaskets are cut in the field all portions of the gasket should be cut from the same sheet to obtain uniform thickness. b Rotor Leads The general area of the Rotor Leads should be searched. If a leak is detected check the lead studs, Refer to the Generator Instruction Book for detail information, c Valves and Pipelines Check all gas valves and piping associated with the Gas Supply System including Liquid Detectors and the Carbon Dioxide Manifold. Repair welded and gasket joints and replaces valve seats of packing where necessary. WARNING: Welding must not be done with hydrogen in the machine. d= Vent Valves and Vapor Extractors Leakage or losses thru vent lines from the generator or vapor extractors can be checked at the vent outlets on the powerhouse roof. When checking vent lines an activated charcoal filter should be used to cover detector sensor to remove oil vapors. There should be no leakage at generator vent line, but a little hydrogen may be detected absorbing oil from the loop seal tank vent in normal operation, Repair or replace vent valve seats as necessary. If leakage is detected at the loop seal vent investigate the bearing drains. e Bearing Drains Access to each drain is made thru a pipe plug in the drain line at or slightly below floor level. Use an activated charcoal filter and stop the vapor extractor during the search. The search should be continued for some minutes since investigations in this region tend to be erratic. Leakage into the bearing cavities is often an indication of faulty joints between gland seal and bearing brackets. It may also be due to a faulty oil seal or, perhaps, to an excess of hydrogen side seal oil pressure over airside oil pressure. ‘Tighten the gland seal bracket bolts if necessary. Check the differential pressure at the seals and, check the difference between hydrogen side and airside seal oil pressure. {Gas Dryer Check all flanges and openings in the gas dryer. g Gas Purity and hydrogen pressure control unit Search all screwed, welded or compression type joints. Do not use liquid solutions on electrical Teads. bh Seal Oil Units The differential pressure regulator in the turbine backup line should normaily be completely closed during operation. Check the temperature of the pipe by hand on the seal side of the DOCUMENT NO.: TR/YQOA460F563.

Make certain that the pressure equalizing valves are maintaining a differential pressure of less than +Sem of water column, It is sometimes possible, when leakage is substantial, to find the approximate location of the source by isolating the various components or pipelines in tum and observing the effect upon the generator or line gas pressure. All feed valves should be closed for this test. (3) Leakage Test with a Micro-Manometer After leak check with soap liquid or Freon detector and be sure there is no obvious Ieakage found in the generator, the leakage test with a micro-manometer can be performed. This test determines the how amount gas is leaked from the generator, or determines the leakage of the generator whether within the leakage limit, a Test Rig Description The test rig, refers to Fig. 2 Leak Testing with Manometer, consists of a manometer, a small gas cylinder, a three-valve assembly and associated piping. Sometimes a precise pressure gauge is furnished with the test rig to indicate the generator pressure. The manometer is a micro-manometer due to its slope-and-straight bottom tube instead of a U-shape bottom of a common manometer. The whole scale of the manometer indicates the pressure of 50mm-H,O. Every 25mm-H,O is marked in 100 graduations, so a 0.25mm-H,O can be read from the manometer. That is about 1/40,000 of atmospheric pressure. The tube is filled with special red oil, supplied from the manometer manufacturer, to indicate the differential pressure. A zero-adjuster knob is provided to adjust the red oil at zero position when test begins. ‘The manometer also furnished with a level gauge to assist the manometer in a level position ‘The small gas cylinder is installed inside the generator; a special flange connection on the generator frame is designed for this purpose, so that the atmospheric temperature and pressure changes during the leakage test can be omitted. b_ Leak Test with Manometer b1_ Install the test rig as show in Fig.2. The manometer should be in a horizontal position. b2 Open the all valves in three-valve assembly, b3_ Fill the generator with dried air to the pressure prescribed. b4_ Check the leakage of the test rig. b5_ Keep the pressure for stability of one hour. b6. Set the red oil at zero point by the zero-adjust knob, ‘7 Close the balance valve in the three-valve assembly and begin the test. b8 Record the time the test begins. b9 When the air leaks from the generator, the pressure in the small gas cylinder will force the red oi to go downward. If the red oil almost goes away in the scale tube, first record the time and the graduations escaped, then open the balance valve to restore the red oil to zero point. 10 Close the balance valve to continue the test. b1I Repeat the testing b8 to b10 At least, the testing should be performed in 4 hours. A 24-hours test is recommended, so that the influence of the atmospheric temperature and pressure changes can be reduced to a minimum.

Be sure open the all three valves in the valve assembly if the testing is over, otherwise the red oil will be blowed off by venting of the generator. ¢ Calculating the leakage The calculation of the leakage is as follows AV =0.0023-V-AP /t Where: AV~ Leakage of the generator (m*/day) V~ Generator volume (m*) AP— Pressure changes summed during testing (mm-H;0) t— testing time summed during testing (i) When the testing pressure is 0.5MPa, the leakage of the generator, including auxiliaries, is limited at 2.4m*/day. _— GAS CYLINDER, _] GENERATOR PRESSURE (SMALLHOLE) _-y RUBBER HOSE (OXYGEN HOSE) _ BALANCE VALVE, ZERO ADJUSTER mrcevalveassemery — / | aR PRESSURE GAUGE | a Ge ee a —— L / fee sad erat FLUNG ENTRANCE Fig.2 Leak Testing with Manometer [Document NO.: TR/YQUA460F563 Pave 11 0f 22 | Bra BoP GENERATOR GAS.

In case of emergency these operations can be performed while the machine is decelerating, but it is not recommended that the generator be allowed to operate at normal operating speed in carbon dioxide. (2) Removing Air from the Generator Housing Atmospheric ait contains approximately 21% oxygen by volume. At the upper end of the explosive range (i.e. 70% hydrogen and 30% air) the oxygen content of the hydrogen and air mixture is 21%%30% = 6.3% oxygen. Therefore, in scavenging the air from the generator housing by driving it out with an inert gas, the oxygen content should be reduced to less than 6.3% before introducing hydrogen. With this procedure an explosive mixture will not exist in the generator housing. Fig.3 Amount of Gas to fill generator, shows the chart that amount of gas required to fil the generator to a predetermined purity, assuming perfect diffusion of the gases. For example, when gas volume filled is 2 times of the generator volume, the purity in generator will reach to 86%. Referring to Fig. 3 Amount of iat T Gas to Fill Generator, it can be seen that the air content will be reduced to 14% having an equivalent oxygen content of 21%*14% 3% oxygen by introducing two volumes of gas. When carbon dioxide is introduced at the bottom of a frame with the rotor at standstill or on turing gear, about 1.5 volumes will be sufficient to remove the air since there is not much mixing of the air and carbon dioxide under these conditions.

GENERATOR VOLUMES OF GAS RECUIRED FOR DESIRED PURTY During the addition of carbon dioxide the gas sample should be Fig. 3 Amount of Gas to Fill Generator taken from the top of the machine, as this will be the last location reached by the heavier carbon dioxide gas. After 1.5 vohimes of carbon dioxide are put in the generator, the purity should read about 95% carbon dioxide when sampling from the top. NOTE: The carbon dioxide must be in a gascous state when being added to the Generator. In water cooled stators, care should be taken to prevent carbon dioxide from coming into contact with water, since its presence will drastically increase the stator coil water conductivity.

Referring to Fig. 3, Amount of Gas to Fill Generator, it can be seen that if 3.5 volumes are introduced into the generator when it is running, the resulting mixtare will be 95% hydrogen, However, hydrogen is ordinarily introduced at the top of the machine with the rotor at standstill, and under these conditions it is necessary to add only 2.5 volumes to bring the purity up to 95%, as there is little mixing of the hydrogen and carbon dioxide with the machine at standstill or on turing gear. Purity of the hydrogen should be checked by connecting the purity blower sampling lines to the bottom of the frame, since this is the last location reached by the lighter gas. (4) Addition of Hydrogen when Generator Is Running During normal operation of hydrogen cooled generator the hydrogen purity is usually maintained at 95% or higher when the hydrogen side seal oil pump is operating and 90% ot higher when the hydrogen side seal oil pump is shut down, Gas must be added for two reasons: Leakage makes it necessary to add hydrogen to maintain the pressure, and Infiltration of air, which requires addition of hydrogen to maintain the gas purity. With the double flow gland seal system, the oil pressure on the hydrogen side and the air side of the seals is maintained at the same value. Theoretically there will be no interchange of oil between the air side and the hydrogen side of the seals, but due to minor variations in pressure between the two oil supplies some interchange will occur over long periods of time, Any hydrogen that gets in the air side drain is removed by means of the vapor extractor on the drain line loop seal. Any air that gets into the hydrogen side seal oil drain is more than compensated for by the addition of hydrogen necessary to maintain the correct hydrogen purity within the generator.

Then hydrogen supply needed to increase purity to 95% is: 0.98%23.5=23.03m’, On the other hand it shows that an inflow of 1m’ of air will require the addition of 24m? of hydrogen to maintain the purity at 95%, and 10m’ of hydrogen to maintain the purity at 90%, (5) Removing Hydrogen from the Generator Housing DOCUMENT NO.: TR/YQOA460F 563 Page 13 of 22 ‘| Bia RiP GENERATOR GAS TIRODA THERMAL POWER SYSTEM OPERATION AND | PROJECT 1980 MW (2x660 MW MAINTENANCE MANUAL. PHASE I+1x660MWPhasell) | tines For this operation carbon dioxide is introduced at the bottom of the housing as a scavenging gas and hydrogen is driven out at the top. Sufficient carbon dioxide should be introduced to reduce the hydrogen content of the gas mixture in the housing to 5%. Carbon dioxide should be added with the unit at standstill or on turning gear, two volumes being required for scavenging, When adding carbon dioxide the purity blower should be connected with the top of the generator housing and purity should read approximately 95% carbon dioxide after the carbon dioxide has reached the required concentration. After the hydrogen has been driven out of the generator housing, it may be opened, and the seal oil pressure may be tuned off. Hand holes in each end of the generator frame should be opened and a fan directed into the opening at one end to drive out the carbon dioxide. This precaution is suggested to prevent the breathing of carbon dioxide, which might occur if an immediate visual inspection were made thru a hand hole. WARNING: It is not recommend that permanent air connections for purposes of purging the carbon dioxide or hydrogen should ever be used, because of the danger of careless admission of air into hydrogen and the possibility of creating an explosive mixture. 4.2 Detailed Purging Procedure Instructions 4.2.1 Replacing Air with CO; In the following discussions, refer to Gas System P & ID. Before purging is begun, the following items should be carefully checked, 1) Make certain that normal seal oil pressure is established at the gland seals. 2) Be sure that the purity monitoring system is operating correctly. 3) Be sure close the isolate valves of dew point meter valves. 4) Check to see that a sufficient quantity of hydrogen and carbon dioxide is available. 5) Connect the purity sampling lines to the top manifold opening vale 1DMKG30A.A202 and closing valve 1OMKG30AA201 6) Connect the purity vent line to the atmosphere by opening valve 1OMKG30AA203. 7) Isolate the hydrogen supply by closing valve 1OMKG26AA205 and 10MKG24AA202, 10MKG24A A203. Disconnect removable link in hydrogen supply piping, 8) Connect the COz supply fo the bottom manifold by opening valve 1OMKG26AA201, and, closing valve 10MKG26AA202, 10MKG10AA601. Connect the gas vent to the top manifold by opening valve 1OMKG26AA203, 1OMKG26AA204. 9) Be sure the safety valve of the COz heater is already set to the request points. Turn on the CO; heater and regulating CO, output temperature to set value. 10) Admit CO, to the generator thru valves IOMKGO2AA211. Regulating the CO, output pressure is between 5 to 20kPa during purging. The valves in the line of CO; supply should be opened wide to prevent the valves from freezing. Observe the purity meter indication during purging. When 1.5 machine volumes have been put into the generator, the purity meter should read approximately 93% CO>. Continue to admit CO until the purity meter indicates 95% CQ, 11) If the COz heater is not used observe the frost line on the CO; feed line to see that it disappears at least 3 meters from the point at which the CO feed line enters the generator. This assures that the CO is in a gaseous state when entering the generator. 12) Close valves in the CO, supply and then close manifold outlet valve 1OMKG02AA211, Close vent valve 1OMKG26AA204 DOCUMENT NO.: TR/YQOA460F 563.

When the purity indicates 95% CO: purity, it should first close valve 10MKGO2AA2i1 to shut off the CO, supply, then closing valve 10MKG26AA201 Approximately two volumes of CO, are required to give 95% purity at CO> 8) If the CO; heater is not used observe the frost line on the CO> feed line to see that it disappears at least 3 meters from the point at which the CO2 feed line enters the generator. ‘This assures that the CO, is in a gaseous state when entering the enclosure. 4.24 Replacing CO2 with Air 1) The seal oil pressure may be turned off providing the shaft is not turing, 2) Remove the manhole covers at each end of the generator. As soon as the covers have been removed, take a gas sample with a gas analyzer. After the covers are removed, wait at least one hour before placing 2 NON-SPARKING FAN at one end of the generator to drive out the carbon dioxide. Open all liquid detector drains 3) Ventilate for several hours after removing manhole covers before crawling into the generator. 4) When replacing the manhole covers, do not forget to close the liquid detector drains. 5) When a temporary air is used to purge the CO2, do not forget to remove the air supply after the working is done. 4,3. Determination of Gas Purity 4.3.1 From the Purity analyzer Machine gas purity is determined in normal circumstances by direct reading of the purity indicator. Valves in the purity sampling lines permit sampling gas from the top or bottom of the generator housing as required. During normal operation the sample should be taken from the bottom. In the thermal conductivity gas purity monitor the sample gas from top of generator house to measure CO> percent purity in Air and from bottom of generator house to measure H percent purity in CO>, The entire analysis program is at constant pressure near atmospheric maintained by pressure regulator. As the pressure is constant near atmospheric in the purge and operation, the purity is not need to pressure compensating at any pressure in generator house, allows calibration of the indicator scale directly in terms of machine gas purity. ‘The purity analyzer measures the concentration of a gas in a binary gas mixture by measuring the thermal conductivity of the sample gas and comparing it to the thermal conductivity of a selected reference gas and converts to a 4-20mA output proportional to the concentration of one of the constituents of the binary gas mixture. 4.3.2 Using Portable Equipment Gas purity may be checked with portable instruments. Oxygen and carbon dioxide content may also be determined by means of the standard Orsat apparatus. 44 Normal Operating Purity During normal operation of the generator with both the air side and the hydrogen side seal oil pumps in operation, the hydrogen purity should be maintained at 95% or greater. If the unit is DOCUMENT NO.: TR/YQOA460F563 Page 16 of 22 ‘| Fea BaP [GENERATOR GAS TIRODA THERMAL POWER ‘ fines SYSTEM OPERATION AND | PROJECT 1980 MW (2660 MW Shanouatetectee | MAINTENANCE MANUAL | PHASE I+ 1*660 MW Phase Il) being operated with the hydrogen side seal oil pump shut down, the hydrogen purity should be maintained at 90% to avoid excessive use of hydrogen 4.5 Possible Causes of Low Purity If itis difficult to maintain the purity at 95% or lower during normal operation, the probable cause is one of the following. 1) Incorrect setting of the pressure equalizing valves. 2) Malfunctioning of the hydrogen side drain regulator The Pressure Equalizing Valves, MKW3SAA101 and MKW36AA101, should maintain the hydrogen side seal oil pressure to the air side seal oil pressure within +5cmHzO (4490Pa). If one or both of these valves are not operating correctly, air may be introduced into the generator thru the air side seal oil. To correct the trouble, the valves should be adjusted as described in the section of the Instruction Book, Inspection and Maintenance of the Seal Oil System, Float feed valves MKWOGAA102 and drain valve MKWO6AA101 maintain the oil level in the hydrogen side drain regulator within certain limits. However, if feed valves MKWOGAA102 does not seal off tight when the oil level rises, air side oil is forced into the tank. The level is maintained since drain valve MKWO6AA101 opens when the oil level is too high and allows the extra oil 10 be forced into the loop seal. The operation of these valves may be checked as outlined in the section of the Instruction Book under Inspection and Maintenance of the Seal Oil System. 4.6 Hydrogen Pressure ‘Two pressure transmitters mounted on hydrogen pressure control unit is used to measure gas pressure in real time, The outlet one is for generator in any operation range from 0 to 0.7MPa and 4-20mA send. The inlet one is for hydrogen supply pressure from 0 to 1,6MPa and 4-20mA send At same time indication is showed on each transmitter in local. 4.7 Gas Dryer The gas dryer is connected across a high and low pressure zone in the ventilating circuit of the generator. This causes gas to be circulated thru the dryer when the unit is running. As enhancing the dry effect a hydrogen blower is installed in dryer piping line at inlet of dryer. The action of the dryer provides an effective control of the relative humidity within the generator and the humidity is monitored by Dew point meter. Refer to the manufacturer's instruction manual of gas dryer for detail information. 48 Dew Point Meter ‘Dew point meter consists of two parts, one is sensor and one is transmitter. The sensor of the dew point meter is a high-molecule element, which is sensitive to the water vapor content. Cate should be taken to keep the sensor from dirty, oil and alike, The transmitter is furnished with LED panel and keyboard. The display of the LED is in dew point. The signal of the dew point is sent to control room. See manufacturer's instruction book of the dew point meter for detail operation. In normal operation the dew point in the generator is less than -5 deg C. The alarm point is set at degC. 4,9 Hydrogen Gas System Alarms All of alarm signals of hydrogen gas system alert the operator to abnormal operating conditions.

This contact should be set to operate at 90% hydrogen purity. ‘hes and alarms mentioned in the following paragraphs, refer to This signal indicates low hydrogen purity, which may be a result of improper operation of the pressure equalizing valves or the hydrogen side drain regulator. 6.3 Hydrogen Pressure-High or Low ‘The Hydrogen Pressure signal is given by a transmitter mounted at outlet of hydrogen pressure control unit and set high or low pressure alarm signal in DCS. The high alarm can be set at 35kPa above the rated pressure. It indicates the pressure of the hydrogen in the generator is higher than that pressure which is desired. If the high-pressure alarm is given, the gas feed system should be checked thoroughly. The low alarm should be set to give a signal when the pressure drops 7kPa below the rated pressure. A cause of low hydrogen pressure may be leakage of hydrogen. The alarm may also be given if there is a sudden large drop in load and the water supply to the coolers is not decreased. The resultant rapid drop in temperature will cause the hydrogen to contact and reduce the pressure in the machine. If this low pressure alarm actuates the gas supply system should be checked. 6.4 Hydrogen Supply Pressure-Low The Hydrogen Supply Pressure analog signal is given by a transmitter mounted at inlet of hydrogen pressure control unit and set hydrogen supply pressure low alarm signal in DCS. It indicates that the supply of hydrogen is getting low. It is normally set to give an alarm when the pressure at this point decreases to approximately 0.1MPa greater than the rating pressure (Refer to the Gas System P&ID.). If this alarm actuates the hydrogen supply system should be checked and the cause of low pressure should be corrected. 65 Liquid Detector High The Liquid Detector-High signal indicates that one of the four liquid detectors on the bottom of the generator has become filled with water or oil. The signal is given by a float-operated switch located on the detector. Each liquid detector high alarm is sent to DCS. If this alarm actuates it alerts the operator to check all four detectors immediately. Opening the valve at the bottom and draining each detector will show whether the liquid is water, oil, or a mixture. The two detectors at the hydrogen coolers would be the first to be filled if water were leaking from the coolers or from the stator coil water system. A secondary cause here would be an overflow of oil from the gland seal oil system. At the exciter end of the generator, the liquid detector-high alarm would probably indicate that the DOCUMENT NO.: TR/YQOA460F 563 Page 21 of 22 Bah = ___GENERATOR GAS TIRODA THERMAL POWER Hf BF | system OPERATION AND | PROJECT 1980 MW (2*660 MW SHANGHAI ELECTRIC | MAINTENANCE MANUAL, PHASE I + 1*660 MW Phase I) detector at the bottom of the main lead box was full of oil, which overflowed from the gland seal. At the center of the generator, a detector-high alarm would indicate that an overflow of liquid from either end of the generator had reached that point. Corrective action depends upon the speed with which the liquid detectors become filled. If it takes several days before enough liquid accumulates to actuate an alarm, the leakage or overflow is minor and does not require emergency action. If the leakage or overflow is severe enough that the detectors fill up again immediately, an emergency shutdown may be necessary to investigate the cause of the trouble. The generator should not be operated if the frame is becoming flooded with oil, or ifa sizeable leak has developed in one of the hydrogen coolers. 6.6 Dew Point-High The Dew Point-High signal at gas dryer inlet is sent when dew point in the generator reaches to 8 deg C. When this alarm actuates, check the gas dryer outlet dew point whether is higher than -10 deg C or the hydrogen should be purged. The Dew Point-High signal at gas dryer outlet is sent when dryer downstream dew point reaches to -10 deg C. When this alarm actuates, the adsorbent in the dryer is failure and it should be replaced, ] 22 | DOCUMENT NO.: TR/YQOA460F 563 Page 22 of 22 aasaai Eee } Bea vhup
