Aop & Eop Sop

The document provides start up and operating procedures for an Auxiliary Oil Pump (AOP) and Emergency Oil Pump (EOP) used in a turbine system. It outlines steps to ensure the pumps are ready, start them up, monitor their operation, and shut them down. Interlocks are described that automatically start and stop the AOP based on lube oil pressure and turbine speed. The EOP is started by low lube oil pressure and operated manually for emergency backup of lubrication when the AOP fails or during power outages.

Start up Procedure for Auxiliary Oil Pump (AOP):

Ensure the following


 AOP is ready from Mechanical, Electrical and Instrumentation sides and NO Line
Clearance is pending on AOP, governing and oil systems.
 Power supply and control supply are available.
 Pressure switches and interlocks are properly checked and incorporated.
 Discharge valve is opened.
 Level of oil in MOT is normal.
 Valves in oil system supply mains are properly lined up.
 Ensure oil vapor fan is in service (at least one).
 Start the pump by pressing the start button on DCS.
 Check the discharge pressure of pump and motor current.
 Keep the pump in auto, in order to come in to service in auto as per the interlock.
 Observe the lube oil filter DP (< than0.8) from local gauge.
 If necessary change the filter.

 NOTE:
Before changing the filter, open air vent & Equalizing valve and ensure that both the filters are
equalized with oil. After change over, close the air vent.

Interlocks on AOP:
Auto Start:
Lube oil header pressure low alarm and pump is selected in AUTO, AOP comes in to service in
AUTO.
Auto Stop:
When Turbine speed is greater than 95% of rated speed, AOP will be switched off in AUTO.
EMERGENCY OIL PUMP
The EOP comes into service in the event of an Emergency. A DC motor drives this. It has rated
capacity of 40 m3/hr against a1.5Kg/Sq.cm head and is driven by 7.5 KW, 3000 rpm110V DC
motor. In the event of total power  failure or if AOP fails to start on its interlock due to any
reason, EOP comes into operation when lube oil header pressure drops to 0.62Kg/Sq.cm to
supply the lube oil to the TG bearings for its safe coasting down. EOP supplies oil only to the
bearings. The discharge of this pump will not go through oil coolers.

Startup sequence:
Ensure the following.
 EOP is ready from Mechanical, Electrical and Instrumentation sides and NO Line
Clearance is pending on EOP, governing and oil systems.
 DC Power supply and control supply are available.
 Pressure switches and interlocks are properly checked and incorporated.
 Discharge valve is opened.
 Level of oil in MOT is normal
 Valves in oil system supply mains are properly lined up.
 When the above are satisfied, the DC EOP will start by inter lock, if lube oil header
pressure drops to0.62Kg/Sq.Cm3. If the interlock does not work, the pump can be started
by pressing the start push button on Turbine governor panel (TGP)
 After starting the pump check the discharge pressure, motor current.

Shutdown sequence:
 The DC EOP can be stopped from TGP when it is no longer required to run, say, when
AC power is restored and AOP has taken into service.
 To stop the pump, press stop button on TGP.
 The pump can only be stopped whenever lube oil header pressure is >0.62Kg/Sq.Cm,
otherwise EOP will come into service in auto.

 Important Note:
During normal running of turbine, EOP should be ready in all respects to come into service
without fail. Trail run may be taken in every shift to check the availability of EOP. While TG is
in service or in TGM operation, EOP should be in ‘Auto Standby’ mode on TGP.

 
Procedure to take trail run on EOP
 Check the Healthiness of DC supply.
 Change the selector switch from USUAL to TEST mode in Governor Control Panel.
 EOP will start automatically.
 Observe the lube oil pressure.
 Check the current.
 Ensure AOP is in auto.
 Change the Selector switch from TEST to USUAL mode.
 Stop the EOP. If lube oil pressure drops to0.87+/-0.2kg/sq.cm, AOP will start in auto.
 EOP should be kept in Standby mode.
 Observe the lube oil pressure to bearing.
 After ensuring the lube oil pressure to bearings, Stop AOP.
 Observe the lube oil pressure.
Inter locks on EOP:
Auto Start:
Lube oil header pressure low low and EOP auto selected on TGP then EOP come into service in
AUTO.
Auto Stop:
Auto stop isn’t incorporated. Manual start and manual stop can be done at any time from TGP.
