Main Gas Header Trip Valve Leak Test There is one light/heavy oil elevation (A) and three heavy oil elevations (B, C & D) that Upon successful completion of the Corner Trip / Riser Vent Valve Leak Test, the riser serve the unit. For Elevation “A”, THE OPERATOR MUST SELECT LIGHT OR HEAVY vent valves are opened to depressurize the gas piping downstream of the Main Gas OIL. Each oil elevation can be placed in service manually or automatically. Changeover Header Trip Valve. The riser vent valves close again when the header pressure is low. from LO to HO or back requires that all Elevation A light/heavy oil trip valves and atomizing air/steam valves be closed prior to changeover. The manner in which the oil elevation is placed in service is described in the following sections. A 60 second Main Gas Header Trip Valve Leak Test starts when the following events occur: Firing Mode / Manual Operation There are 2 modes of firing, Pair Mode and Elevation Mode. The Operator may select Main gas header pressure is low. the desired mode by activating either the Pair or Elevation pushbuttons. Main Gas Header Trip Valve is closed. All main gas riser vent valves closed. When a Pair Start pushbutton is activated, the pair or elevation will start according to the Corner Trip & Riser Vent Valve Leak Test Complete selected operating mode. An oil elevation will only be started in elevation mode when started from Auto Load Control. In either mode of operation the individual corner start sequence is the same and is detailed in the “Corner Start Sequence” section below. When the leak test expires and the main gas header pressure is low, the “Main Gas Leak Test Complete” indication will come on. This will indicate that the “Main Gas Header Trip In Elevation Mode, the eight (8) oil corners are placed in service sequentially at 15 Valve Leak Test” is successful. If the main gas header pressure is not low, the “Header second intervals.

This alarm is caused by any corner trip valve leakage or any main gas riser vent valve leakage. Activating the PAIR START push button for Corners 1,3,5,7 generates a start The “header trip valve leak test failed” alarm command and starts the oil corners according to the following sequence: ©COPYRIGHT GE Vernova May, 2024 11 Yanbu Power Station, Unit No.’s 10 – 50 a.

Following a ten second trial time, the spark transformer is de-energized. At the completion of this trial time, if the ignitor flame detector indicates “flame” and the ignitor flow is adequate, the ignitor will remain in Gas Automatic Startup Operation service. If the ten second time trial expires and if either the ignitor flame detector indicates “no flame” or if the ignitor flow is not adequate, the ignitor is tripped and the ignitor trip A gas elevation will be placed in service automatically if gas is the selected fuel for Auto valves are closed and the vent valve is opened.

The main gas corner vent valve’s close command is also removed, allowing the valve to open. The gas loading should be reduced before an elevation is shut down. After the gas loading is reduced, the gas elevation is shut down by the operator. Gas Corner Trip When the Main Gas Elevation Stop pushbutton is activated, the following takes place: When a gas burner is “in service”, the gas corner is automatically shut down if a Main Gas Elevation Trip or Sequential Trip signal is established. The eight (8) main gas corners are stopped sequentially. Each corner stop occurs in 15 second intervals using the following sequence: Any of the following conditions will trip the gas corner: a.

Oil Manual Operation Oil Corner Shutdown The oil loading should be reduced before an elevation is shut down. After the oil loading is reduced, the oil elevation is shut down by the operator. The oil corner shuts down in the following manner: Oil shutdown can be accomplished in 2 modes, Pair Mode and Elevation Mode. When the operator Elevation Stop pushbutton is pressed the elevation will stop according to the 1.

The oil trip valve “closed” indication comes on and the “open” indication goes off. In Elevation Mode, the eight (8) oil corners are stopped sequentially. Each corner stop occurs in 90 second intervals using the following sequence. 2. The HEA ignitor receives an “advance” command and when proven advanced, the “spark” signal is established for thirty (30) seconds. Simultaneously, the scavenge valve is opened. After sparking for 30 seconds, the HEA ignitor is a. Corner 1 (Stops immediately when elevation start is issued) retracted. b. Corner 5 (Stops 90 seconds after 1) c.
