STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURE FOR TURBINE DRAINS SYSTEM

OBJECTIVE : For Smooth Operation of Turbine under low load and Abnormal
Operation Condition .
SCOPE : This SOP is applicable for Turbine Proper and Pipe drains
INTRODUCTION : The main function of drain system is used to drain the condensate
in the steam turbine proper and the piping during the unit starting, shutdown,
Operating at low load or under abnormal Operation conditions , so as to prevent
serious accidents like the steam turbine Rotor bending , the internal parts damaged
due to the steam turbine water induction
RESPONSIBILITY: Unit Control Engineer, Field Engineer and Desk Engineer.
SAFTEY PRECAUTIONS:
Ensure no permit to work is pending on regarding this system by checking with
EE/MRSE.
SAFTEY PPE’s: Ear Plugs, Safety Goggles, Hand Gloves, etc.
SPECIAL TOOLS/ EQUIPMENTS : NIL
