OPERATION

PROCEDURE:

S. #. ACTION TO BE TAKEN RESPONSIBILITY

Check physical conditions of FD fan (130-C1A/B) and its motor e.g.

1 Instrument air leakage from suction damper, bearing oil level, motor Field Operator
energizing from substation, coupling guard etc.
Inform DCS controller for stroke checking (0 to 100% MV) of suction
2 damper (130-HV-241 A/B). Verify opening from the field. Report any Field Operator
abnormality (if available).
Remove Pad lock and push ON button of FD fan (130-C1A/B) by
3 Field Operator
informing DCS controller.
Increase suction damper (130-HV-241 A/B) MV of FD fan i.e. being
DCS Controller/
4 taken in service and decrease the MV of FD fan suction damper i.e.
Field Operator
being taken out of service and confirm it from the field.
Issue cold permit to MM for closing discharge flapper of FD fan
5 Shift Supervisor
taking out of service.
Stop FD fan (i.e. taken out of service) by pushing stop button and
6 Field Operator
ensure its discharge flappers are closed by MM.
Adjust the MV of suction damper as per air flow, pressure and heater
7 DCS Controller
(130-H1 A/B/C) excess O2 requirements.
Ensure FD fan conditions (e.g. any sound, rotation etc) from field and Field Operator/ DCS
