5. INTRODUCTION
The Engineering Department works almost completely behind the scenes but it fulfils a tremendously responsible function. The Chief
Engineer directs the activities of this department and supervises a team of engineers, supervisors, technicians and skilled workers. The
works of Engineering department are as follows: -

1. Electrical
2. Plumbing
3. Heating, Ventilation & Air-conditioning
4. Boiler
5. Swimming Pool
6. TV-Music systems
7. Carpentry and Interiors
8. Painting and Polishing
9. Civil Construction
10. Complaint Handling
11. Preventive Maintenance
12. Calibration
13. Break- down Maintenance

This manual has been compiled to highlight the duties and responsibilities of engineering staff and to familiarise them with plant and
machinery in their organization. This manual basically gives an insight into plant and machinery and engineering related jobs. In no way
should this manual be taken as guide lines for repair of a particular machine. For that purpose the maker‟s instruction manual should be
referred to. Responsibilities and authority of each individual is defined in totality, thereby organizing the department in such a manner
to carry out the preventive maintenance and modernization, while day to day work carries on smoothly. Last but not the least; we are
committed to the technological modernization and to improve customer service.
 Radisson Blu Kaushambi Delhi NCR
Engineering Manual

1) ELECTRICAL

Electrical work takes the Engineering department to every corner of the building. An elaborate electrical system with its many
circuits means hundreds of fuses, and every blown fuse is immediately replaced. All electrical fixtures, sockets and switches are
kept in good working order. Any extra display lighting, spot lights, movie projectors or appliances used by the hotel and its guests
are handled by engineering. The Hotel utilizes a tremendous amount of electrical equipment, which is necessary for its smooth
functioning; hence they are kept in excellent working order and repaired when necessary.

All wires are marked and passed through the conduit pipes, which are embedded in the walls. Music/ Telephone wires are
isolated from the live wires.

All the covers are fitted back after completion of work on electric panels‟ earth wire should be tightened. All motors, machines
and panels are properly earthen. Insulated rubber mats are placed in front of the panels. Broken sockets, holders and switches etc.
are replaced immediately.

A logbook is being maintained by the Electrical staff where meter readings and power consumption are recorded. Monthly power
consumption or meter reading is tallied with the monthly electrical bill before payment is made. Preventive maintenance schedules
are carried out.

High-tension voltage is 11000 volts which is transformed to 440 volts through 2 transformers of 1000 KVA each. From the
transformers power is taken to the Low-Tension Distribution panel (LT panel) and from there it is distributed to various areas of
the hotel.
st
The hotel has two generator sets of 1010 KVA each, which are installed in the 1 Basement for emergency use, when the
regular source fails. The alternator supply is connected to the main bus bars of the L.T. Distribution panel.
Above activities are organized through preventive and break down maintenance as per section Introduction.
 Radisson Blu Kaushambi Delhi NCR
Engineering Manual

2) PLUMBING

Maintaining the plumbing system of a hotel is no small job. In addition to the circulating filter water in bathrooms of each
guestroom, hotel has a separate and complete hot water system. The kitchen also has a continuous hot and cold water supply.
Plumbers and engineers are ensuring a complete supply of water in these areas.
For this purpose the hotel has fire, raw water, filter soft water tanks. Cold water supply on each floor area is regularly monitored by
the pressure gauge and is recorded in the logbook. Sounding of these tanks is taken once in every shift. Faucet washers are bound to
wear out and plumbers are making it a routine to check them regularly and replace the worn out washers immediately and record it
in the logbook.

Drains may get chocked themselves, but when there are hundreds of guests in the hotel, some will discard the object in the wash
basin or the bathtubs which will cause drain block. Outlets of these drains are to be checked by plumbers once in a shift for free
flowing of water and log in the status. Another call frequently received in the Engineering concerns the toilets. Wherever these
types of complaints will be there the plumber, he himself arms with the toilet tools and plunger before proceeding to the site of
chocking/flood the idea is not to waste time coming back again to the plant room to pick up tools. In serious cases the toilets may
have to be immediately blocked to locate the source of chocking. In such cases front office and housekeeping must be informed
immediately.

Plumbers will also maintain filtration plants & RO for drinking water. Proper chemical treatment of these systems is to be carried out
everyday and test results to be logged. The chemical-dosing pump is fitted with discharge line of water softener, which keeps on
pumping chemical until desired level.
 Radisson Blu Kaushambi Delhi NCR
Engineering Manual

3) HEATING, VENTILLATION AND AIRCONDITIONING

The next area of maintenance includes Air-conditioning during summer months; heating during winter months to maintain a 78o
F temperature at all times.

Basically and AC system consists of water chilling plants and chilled water is circulated through fan coil units fitted in each room
and Air handling units for Public areas such as lobby. Restaurant, Coffee shops, Banquet halls and back offices. Maintenance and
upkeep of this centralized air conditioning system is done by technicians, supervisor and engineers under the direct supervision under
of deputy chief Engineer/ Chief Engineer.

FCU + AHU cleaning and maintenance:

AHUs coil cleaning is carried out half yearly and filters are cleaned bi-monthly. FCUs filters are cleaned regularly and coils are
thoroughly cleaned once in a year.

During winter months when the ambient temperature falls below 18 C, the chilling plants are shut down and a centralized heating
system is put in use (if required). Basically the system operation remains the same except the circulating water is heated up
through hot water generator. This heated water circulates through the fan coil units and Air-handling units. Annual and preventive
maintenance of chillers plants is carried out during these winter months.
Ventilation and Exhausting systems such as kitchen fresh air and exhaust. Public toilet exhausts plant room and boiler room
ventilation / exhaust H.T. / L.T. exhaust etc. is maintained throughout the year.

Refrigeration:
The hotel has cold rooms and deep freezers. These refrigerating systems are maintained throughout the year and their annual
and preventive maintenance is carried out regularly.

Above activities are organized through preventive and break down maintenance as per section Introduction.

Procedure for recording Public Area’s Temperature

Public are consists of lobby and restaurants for which temperature have to be recorded. A separate logbook is maintained
for recording temperature. A.C. technician on duty has to take round of this area and log temperature every four hours.

This logbook gives status of AHU‟s either “ON” or “OFF” and temperature of that area if it is “ON”.
 Radisson Blu Kaushambi Delhi NCR

4) BOILER

There are two steam boiler of 500-kg/hr capacity. Steam produced from the boilers is used for laundry only. There are two hot water
generators of 2 lac Kcal/hr capacity each. Hot water produced from these boilers is used for guest kitchen and guest and staff
lockers. A softener plant is provided which keeps the water soft tank filled up all the time. Only soft water is to be used for boilers
and a.c. plant. Regular tests are carried out and according to the reading, a certain amount of chemical dosing is done. Boilers are
cleaned and de-carbonised once a year.

5) SWIMMING POOL

Swimming pool is maintained and cleaned of pool water is carried out on daily basis by engineering department. This is to be carried
out early in the morning. Filtration plant cleaning includes back flushing, chemical dosing and chlorination. Water tests are carried
out daily and entries are made in the logbook. Tests are as follows: -

a) Free chlorination as cl2:

Measure 5 ml of the reagent chlorotex in a glass cylinder, to this adds rapidly 50 ml of water, under test. Mix thoroughly; allow
standing for one minute and then comparing the colour with the chart.

PH: range 7.2 to 7.6

Total dissolved solids (TDS): Using digital TDS meter, by dipping in the sample of water. Range max 1500 Mg/ltr.

The object of chemical dosing is two folds:

a) To create a „floc‟ to assist filters in removing suspended and colloidal matter.
b) To ensure that the PH value of the water is maintained between 7.2 and 7.6 so that the water is alkaline in reaction.

The water must be filtered and continuously chlorinated so that the minimum free chlorine residual of (I ppm) is maintained in the
pool. For dealing with algae growth above the water line and on paving a through brushing with copper sulphate solution or
bleaching powder will be effective.

6) TV- MUSIC SYSTEMS

The object is to have channels music system in Lobby and restaurants.

There are 60 channels T.V. programmes for 24-hr. Shift in-charge will monitor the quality of Audio Videocassettes from time
to time.
th
AMC will be signed for manning the SMATV room at 6 floor.

7) CARPENTRY AND INTERIORS

Carpenter work under the supervision of supervisor. When a new carpentry job comes up, the Supervisor along with a carpenter asses
the replacement of the wood before making an order for the same, carpenters do the day to day maintenance of furniture/doors.

8) PAINTING AND POLISHING

Wall surfaces are made with properly mixed putting before applying a cost of paint. Similarly wood surfaces are also
furnished before applying spirit or melamine polish. While carrying out painting and polishing keep the room air-conditioning
off. Paint brushes and rollers should be washed with paint thinner.

9) CIVIL CONSTRUCTION

All the civil construction works which include repair of false ceiling, POP work, roads, passages and new construction are carried out
by mason. No R.C.C., slabs, beams and columns are to be broken or punctured without consulting the architect. It must be made sure
before re-plastering floors etc. that the water proofing underneath is not to be damaged in any way.

 Then he repairs the part if possible.
 If any spare parts are required the same is issued from the store.
 After changing spare parts, he starts the machine, checks it thoroughly and informs the concern department again that the machine
is okay now.
 The record is updated.
 At a frequency of two months break down data is analyzed to find out repetitive failures and the equipment where failure
are taking place.
 Based on the analysis necessary actions are initiated to reduce occurrence of break down and wherever require
preventive maintenance schedule and/ or check list is modified.
 Based on the previous history and experience spare parts have been identified for key equipment. This is given to stores
for maintaining the minimum inventory. Based on the break down analysis the list is updated as required.

6.2 SCREW CHILLER PLANT

Starting
 Check the supply voltage, if less than 390 V increase transformer tapping.

 Start cooling tower fan.

 Open the valve of condenser live and start condenser water pump and check pressure with pressure gauge.

 Start chilled water pump and check pressure with pressure gauge. The input pressure should be 65-75 psi.

 Start the compressor and observe the following two hourly and log-in in the logbook.
o Chilled water inlet and outlet temperature 55/44 F
o Chilled water inlet and outlet pressure 65 –75 psi / 55 – 60 psi
o Condensers water inlet and outlet temperature 79 – 85 F/ 83 – 92 F.
o Condensers water inlet and outlet pressure 28- 40 psi / 20 – 28 psi.

 Shut off – when required chilled water temperature i.e. 44 F is achieved the machine is shut off.
o Switch off the condenser pump.
o Switch of the cooling Tower Fan. Chilled water pump remained on to circulate the chilled water.

BOILER OPERATION
 Fill the feed water in the coil with the help of feed water pump till the time water comes out of the by-pass line.
 Then boiler can be fired by putting the rotary switch in fire position.
 A sequence will be followed, as given below, firing will take place. A signal is given to sequence controller from ON/OFF pressure
switch. After that blower and fuel pump are started. Then after the pre- purging time is over, ignition and burner are energised to
produce a spark and spray fuel in the combustion chamber.
 Steaming will start, steam pressure will start rising and when it crosses 3-4 Kg/cm close the by-pass valve and let the boiler develop
pressure to the maximum set pressure i.e. 10 Kg/cm
 Boiler will automatically stop set pressure on high steam pressure switch.
 Slowly min valve should be opened so that pressure does not drop below 5 Kg/cm because it is low-pressure safety.
 Then as per the demand of steam boiler will work ON –OFF.
 If the boiler is running continuously for 8 hrs. It is necessary that it give a blow-down so that if any scales have settled at bottom of
coil they will come out so that the possibilities of sudden coil chocking will be eliminated and monitoring over the quantum of scale
formation can be done.

In order to count blow – down tune the following be noted:

o Let boiler go at a high (set temperature) preferably to be noted
o Close main stream stop valve and open blow down valve.
o Let pressure drop to 6 Kg/cm pressure drop count time, which will be a blow down time.

 Again blow down valve shall be closed and by-pass valve should be open and coil should be filled up with water. For cooling let
the temperature is brought down to 100 deg. C.

6.3 WATER TREATMENT PLANT

It consists of the following things-

 Raw water filter,
 Softener Plant
 Activated carbon filter
 Hydro pneumatic system.

RAW WATER FILTERS

It is used to remove the particular impurities or the suspended impurities from the untreated (hard water) i.e. raw water. The
raw water filter requires back wash process to maintain efficient flow of water. With required quantity and pressure.

BACK WASH
It is the reverse process of normal supply through the filter. Back washing of the filter required when the filter bed gets chock by
determining the water pressure falling across the filter inlet and outlet. It should not exceed above 5 psi in the bed by installed
pressure gauges.

BACK WASH PROCEDURES

In normal course the water enters the top of the filter bed and comes out from the bottom of the filter bed.

WATER SOFTENING PLANT

It is used to reduce the temporary hardness in the water. The soft water is being used to avoid any damages in equipment used in
various places to smoothly running of boilers and other equipment where hot/cold water is used.

The softener in the hotel is a cataion base. It is a geolite process softener where resins are used. Where chemical change takes place
and softens the water by removing calcium and magnesium salts, which is temporary hardness of the water? It is a cold process
basically known as Ion Exchange.

The softener requires regeneration time to time to have good quality of soft water through out the system
Before doing regeneration, ensure that the raw water and domestic water tanks are also full.
When to do regeneration? - When the water hardness exceeds 80 ppm. We do regeneration of softener.

6.4 SOFTENER
Regeneration of
softener

a) Back-wash:
It is reverse flow in the softener bed by closing normal flow inlet and outlet valve and opening the back wash inlet and outlet valve. The
outlet during backwash, the dirty water is drained out. This process is done to clean the resin bed and also obtain free flow during normal
process.
The backwash time depends upon the watercolour. When clear water is draining backwash system is closed and salt charging starts.

b) Salt charge or brine charge

It is done by introducing common salt solutions of 1.8 specific gravity, by the ejecting system. Salt solution is kept prepared in salt tank
where ejector suction pipe is placed. During salt charging when the entire solution in the tanks empties, close the drain valve of the
softener, close salt charging inlet valve. Keeps the softener bed for 10 – 20 minutes by the brine solution to recharging the resins inside
the bed. Then start rinsing.

c) Rinsing of the softener

Open the normal flow inlet valve, close normal outlet valve, and open the drain valve. Start raw water pump; drain the water till the taste
of the water is sweet. After you feel the water is sweet. Test with the reagents for hardness of the soft water. When the sample of soft
water is 10ppm as CaCo3. The water is ready to be put into the process/ consumption.

The quantity of the salt used in one regeneration is 300 Kgs.

Procedure for hardness test

 Take 50 ml of water to be tested in a beaker.
 Add one pinch of reagent “A”. The sample water colour turns pink/ red
 Add reagent “B”, 10 to 15 drops.
 Now start-adding reagent “S” drop by drop and stir the solution simultaneously count the number of drops. When the sample
colour turns pink to blue count the no. of reagent “S” and multiply by 2
o Hardness is no. of reagent drops  2 = hardness of water in ppm as
CaCo3 o 10 drop  2 = 20 ppm(e.g.)
