PART 1 - PULVERIZER
DESCRIPTION

PULVERIZER DESCRIPTION

Shanghai heavy machinery plant co.ltd. (SHMP for short) has developed a series
of pulverizers which grind and dry coal in power plants through out the world. The
grinding surface in the pulverizer resembles a deep dish or bowl. Therefore the
name"Bowl Mill" has been adopted to refer to this piece of equipment.

The Pulverizer consists of the following components: (refer to figure 1-1)

1. The “gearbox”, which is driven by an electric motor, is directly connected to


the bowl hub. A planetary gear arrangement provides the proper reduction
between the motor and the bowl hub to obtain the desired bowl speed.

2. The “millside and air inlet” surround the bowl and the bowl hub and support the
separator body. Air for transporting and drying the coal enters through the air
inlet, and is directed upward around the bowl.

3. The "bowl" is the table upon which the coal is crushed. Material to be ground is
admitted to the pulverizer and deposited near the center of the rotating bowl.

4. The “vane wheel assembly”, which is attached to the bowl, manages the
coal/air mixture within the grinding zone of the pulverizer by uniformly
distributing the transport air through the bowl O.D. and inner cone/ separator
body annulus.

5. Three independent, spring loaded “journal assemblies” are suspended from


the separator body and overhang the bowl. The journal assembly rolls are free
to rotate, and do so, when the coal being pulverized fills the space between
them and bowl.

6. The “separator body and separator top” with attached deflector assemblies and
the inner cone and classifier, contain the material after it is pulverized. The
separator body and separator top direct the material and transport air up
through the deflector assemblies where larger particles of material are
separated from the transport air and returned to the bowl for further grinding

7. The multiple port outlet assembly separates the flow of material and transport
air into four separate, equal streams.

8. The pulverizer discharge valve assembly is mounted on top of the multiple


port outlet assembly. The four valves, which make up the assembly, are used
to isolate the pulverizer from an operating furnace during a unit start-up and
when the idle pulverizer contains coal. They are also used (in conjunction with
coal line valves) to isolate the pulverizer for maintenance.

The illustrations used in the pulverizer manual are included to supplement and
clarify written information, the components pictured are typical of those used on
the SHMP HP Series of pulverizers. They may not picture all of the pulverizer
parts as they actually exist on your equipment. The value of the descriptive
material, however is not affected in any way.

PART 2 - PROTECTION AND
PRESERVATION OF
PULVERIZER COMPONENTS

INTRODUCTION

The pulverizer is too large to be shipped assembled. As a result, it is broken


down into many subassemblies and loose components. If pulverizer com-
ponents will require field storage (for up to two years), the following specifi-
cations should be followed.

The coatings, oils and plugs referred to in these procedures are initially
applied in the shop. They should be checked and maintained in the field as
required.

CAUTION: USE CARE WHEN HANDLING ASSEMBLIES WHICH


CONTAIN CERAMIC LINERS. THE LINERS MAY CRACK IF AN
ASSEMBLY IS HANDLED ROUGHLY

NOTE: Antirust or grease are used in many places for preservation.


These coatings must be maintained during the storage period. When
the component is being readied for assembly, the antirust/grease must
be removed with a petroleum based solvent.

NOTE: Plastic tapered plugs, plastic tapered caps, plastic pipe thread
protectors, plastic valve flange protectors and plastic web sleeving are
used in many locations. They are made of low density polyethyiene
unless otherwise specified.

Component Storage

GEARBOX ASSEMBLY (Storage Type C)

The gear box assembly is to be placed on timbers and preserved as per


vendor's specifications. Refer to VENDOR'S MANUAL for detailed
instructions.

MILLSIDE AND SEAL AIR HEADER ASSEMBLY (Storage Type E)

Place the assembly on timbers. Coat all of the exposed machined surfaces.
including tramp iron spout flange, air inlet flange, millside access door
flanges, tapped and dowel pin holes with Cosmoline No. 1058. Plug all of the
tapped and dowel pin holes with tapered plugs.

SEPARATOR BODY ASSEMBLY (Storage Type E)

Place the assembly on timbers and orient it as if it is installed on the


pulverizer. Support must be to the lower flange, not the deflector liners which
protrudes below the lower flange. Coat all of the exposed machined surfaces,
including tapped holes and the access door flange faces with Cosmoline No.
1058. Plug all of the tapped holes with tapered plugs. Cap the pipe with a pipe
thread protector.

JOURNAL ASSEMBLY (Storage Type C)

Place the assembly vertically on timbers and stand on the base of the lower
journal housing. Check that each journal assembly is completely filled with the
recommended oil, see “HP PULVERIZER LUBRICANT SPECIFICATIONS”.
Check periodically for leakage at the oil seal. An oil-filled journal assembly is
permanently protected.

At three-month intervals, an oil sample should be taken from representative


journals. Run a 1/4" (6.35 mm) tube down the journal shaft until it bottoms on
the lower journal housing. Close the end of the tube to extract a column of oil.
If there is evidence of water, drain the oil and replace it with new oil. If
contamination is found in any one assembly, then all assemblies should be
inspected. After inspection, the journals should be refilled completely and
capped. At this time, all journal shafts should be turned one revolution.

Before any pulverizer is placed into service, the excess oil must be removed
from the journals (siphon or pump) and the correct level established per the
Pulverizer Lubrication Specifications in the Pulverizer Operations section of
this Instruction Manual.

IF INSTALLED AND BEING STORED IN PULVERIZER

Though it is not the supplier’s recommendation to install and then store the
journals for an extended period it can be done. If the journals were left full of
oil there is a potential that the oil could leak out past the seals as the journals
are now in their operating orientation. Thus it is recommend that some of the
oil be drained out so the journals have oil at their operating level (which
means the level is lower than the seals).

On three month intervals all journals rolls should be rotated to re-coat the
bearings and check for any oil leaks. A sample of oil should be taken on one
journal in each mill and checked for water as noted below.

Note make sure that journal stop bolt is adjusted to raise rolls off the grinding
table -thus permitting the roll to be turned as well as not putting additional
weight on the gearbox thrust bearing.

JOURNAL OPENING COVER AND SPRING ASSEMBLY (Storage Type C)

Store the assembly on timbers with the face which mates with the separator
body pointing down. Coat all of the exposed machined surfaces, including
access cover faces with Cosmoline No. 1058. Coat the exposed portions of
the hydraulic cylinder retaining studs with Cosmoline and cover them with
Web Sleeving. Do not twist assembly during storage.

CAUTION: ENSURE THAT THE WEIGHT OF THE STACK DOES


NOT CAUSE ANY OF THE JOURNAL OPENING COVER TO BEND.

SEPARATOR TOP ASSEMBLY (Storage Type E)

Place the assembly on timbers with the Separator Top Assembly/Separator


Body Assembly flange pointing down. Coat all of the exposed machined
surfaces, including tapped holes with Cosmoline No. 1058. Plug all of the
tapped holes with tapered plugs. Liberally apply a general purpose grease to
the linkage which is located on the top of the assembly. Grease the pivot
points of the Deflector Shaft Assemblies. Securely cover the assembly with a
heavy gauge clear plastic to prevent rain from washing the grease off of the
linkage.

This assembly is to be placed on timbers and oriented as if it was installed


in the pulverizer. Coat the exposed machined surfaces including tapped
holes and dowel pin holes with Cosmoline No. 1058. Plug the tapped holes
with tapered plugs.

Build a wooden crib over the top of the bowl and cover the assembly with
clear heavy gauge plastic. Secure the plastic so that it will not fall off or be
blown away by the wind. The crib should be constructed so that any rain
which falls on top of the plastic will drain off the side of the assembly and
not be caught in the bowl.

PART 3 - INSTALLATION
PROCEDURES

INTRODUCTION

Since the pulverizer described in this manual is too large to be shipped


assembled.These installation instructions provide a sequence for assembling
the normal subassemblies.

Special site conditions may allow for more or less subassembly of


components. All required fasteners, sealants and lubricants are shipped loose.

Pulverizers are frequently assembled in place early in the erection sequence,


sometimes prior to the erection of the building steel. It is recommended that
gearboxes, lubrication systems, journals and all controls be retained in
storage and be installed on the pulverizers just prior to [not more than six (6)
months before] unit commissioning.

CAUTION: TO PREVENT POSSIBLE EQUIPMENT FAILURES,


ENSURE THAT THE CORRECT BOLTS (LENGTH AND GRADE)
ARE USED IN PROPER LOCATIONS DURING THE ASSEMBLY
PROCEDURES. TORQUE ALL FASTENERS TO THE VALUES
INDICATED IN TEXT, ON DRAWINGS OR ON DRAWING B-GP-2175
LOCATED WITH THE TOOL DRAWINGS. BE SURE THAT THE
PROPER TYPE OF THREAD LUBRICANT, FOR EXAMPLE ANTI-
SEIZE COMPOUND OR LOCTITE, IS USED ON EACH FASTENER.
INFORMATION ON THE TYPE OF LUBRICANT TO BE USED IS
FOUND ON THE DRAWING WHERE THE FASTENER IS CALLED
OUT.

NOTE: As components are brought to the site for assembly the mating
machined surfaces must be cleaned and prepared for welding. Bolted
joints should be cleaned and greased or a light film of oil should be
applied.

WARNING: The application of rigging is the responsibility of the


erector or user. Exercise care when handling components to prevent
injury to personnel or damage to equipment. Lifting equipment, jacks,
cranes, chain falls, come-alongs, chain, and wire rope slings, etc. Must
be adequately sized to support the loads being lifted. The weight of
each component, which will be lifted, can be found in the Bill of
Materials on the contract drawings.

PART1-PRINCIPLES OF
OPERATION

GENERNAL

SHMP HP pulverizers are used in central power stations to reduce the size of
the incoming raw coal to a fineness that will efficiently burn in a furnace.

The maximum capacity of a pulverizer is dependent on the following:

1. Pulverizer size

2. Raw coal properties - Hardgrove index and moisture level

3. Pulverized coal fineness - % thru 200 mesh.

The raw coal (≤1-1/2″dia.) is fed Into a rotating bowl via a center feed pipe
(ref er to Figure 1-1 ). The rate of coal feed is normally determined
automatically by a combustion control system, taking into account the MW
demand on the unit, coal quality, and the number of pulverizers in service.
Centrifugal force causes the coal in the bowl to move radially outward,
building up a bed of coal on the grinding ring.

The bed of coal passes under pivoted grinding assemblies called journals.
Here, spring produced loads are imparted to the coal by the rotating rolls. Size
reduction takes place in the localized area between the grinding ring (called
the bullring) and journal roll through a process know as attrition or friction
grinding. The radial and circumferential movement of the coal carries the
crushed coal up over the edge of the bowl into the path of a transport medium.

The transport medium, typically hot air, has three primary functions:

1. It supplies the dynamics necessary within the pulverizer to classify the


coal (control coal fineness).

2. The heated air aids the grinding process by partially drying the coal as it
is reduced in size.

3. It is responsible for transporting the pulverized coal from the pulverizer to


the furnace.

As the coal is continuously reduced in size, the smaller/lighter particles are


swept from the bowl by the gaseous transport medium, hot air.

Transport air is normally supplied by primary air (P.A.) fans located up stream
of the pulverizers. However, In some cases it is provided by individual
exhausters located downstream of the pulverizers. In both systems, the air
is admitted below the pulverizer bowl into an area known as the millside.
The millside is at a positive gauge pressure if the transport air is supplied
by a P.A. fan or at a negative gauge pressure if the transport air is supplied
by an exhauster.

________________________________________________________
From the millside, the air flows upward around the outside diameter of the
rotating bowl. Vanes attached to the bowl (called the vane wheel) change the
air flow to a vertical direction. The smaller/lighter particles of coal at the edge
of the bowl are carried upwards in the air steam, dense, difficult to grind
foreign material falls through the air stream into the millside.

Above the bowl, the lighter airborne coal particles undergo a two-stage
classification process (refer to Figure 1-2).

1. The first stage of classification takes place just above bowl level.
Stationary air deflectors mounted on the separator body cause the
heaviest coal particles to abruptly change direction, they loose
momentum and are returned directly to the bowl for further size reduction.

2. The lighter particles are carried by the transport medium to the separator
top where the second stage of classification occurs. Here curved
adjustable vanes (deflector blades) impart a cyclonic motion to the
coal/air mixture again causing the heavier particles to lose momentum
and fall out of the air stream, and the desired fineness level is achieved.

The heavier coal particles separated by the deflector blades return to the mill
bowl grinding zone by sliding down the inside of the inner cone.The cone
separates the pulverizer's “turbulent” flow area from the classified particles.
The absence of turbulence in this area allows gravity to return these particles
to the bowl.

An inverted cone is positioned inside of the inner cone to reduce the velocity
of the transport medium entering the inner cone through .the cone spout and
ensure that the heavier coal particles are not prevented from returning to the
bowl.

The exiting coal/air mixture passes through a venturi where the mixture is first
concentrated, and then expanded to obtain an even coal/air distribution in
each fuel pipe. The fuel piping carries the coal/air mixture to the furnace ,
where the combustion process takes place.

The difficult to grind foreign material which falls through the air stream into the
mil/side is moved by scraper assemblies, attached to the bowl hub skirt to
anopening in the millside floor. The rejected foreign material enters the pyrite
system.

The reject material usually consists of rock found as over or under burden in
the coal seam and/or parts of the machinery used in the mining or coal
processing operations. It is io the users advantage to minimize the quantity of
this type of material entering the pulverizer.

IMPROPER PULVERIZER
OPERATION
There are both correct and incorrect ways to operate a pulverizer. Listed
below are incorrect and hazardous operating conditions which should be
avoided.

1. Excessive coal spillage - this is a hazardous situation, coal can plug the
pyrites discharge chute thus allowing a coal build up in the millside and
increasing the potential for a pulverizer fire.

2. Operating a pulverizer for an extended period of time with outlet


temperature below specification - this is hazardous as the coal may not
be properly dried and will plate out inside the pulverizer and in the fuel
piping. Fuel pipe plugging and pulverizer or fuel pipe fires can result.

3. Operating a pulverizer with the outlet temperature above specification -


this is hazardous because high outlet temperatures can drive volatile
gases from the fuel thus increasing the fuel's potential to ignite. The
control system should automatically close the hot air shutoff gate if the
pulverizer outlet temperature rises to 20°F (11 ℃) above the specified
outlet temperature (refer to “Pulverizer Fires” section).

Table 2.1 Pulverizer Discharge Temperatures

COAL TYPE TEMPERATURE


Hi-Volatile Bituminous A 180°F (82℃)
Hi-Volatile Bituminous B
Hi-Volatile Bituminous C 170°F (77℃)
Subbituminous A
Subbituminous B
Subbituminous C 150°F (65℃)
Lignite

4. Operating a pulverizer with reduced airflow (below specification) - this is


hazardous as velocity in the fuel pipes may not be adequate to maintain
the pulverized coal in suspension. If coal settles it can cause fuel pipe
plugging and fires.

5. Operating a pulverizer with airflow above specification -this is considered


less then optimal, the higher airflow will increase internal wear in the fuel
pipe and pulverizer. It can also cause a reduction in the pulverized coal
fineness.

6. Operating a pulverizer with the pyrite discharge gate closed - this is


hazardous because it prevents the discharge of rejects. When the gate is
closed for extended periods of time, material normally discharged will be
retained in the millside. The scraper assemblies can be severely
damaged and the potential for a pulverizer fire is increased

1-3

SHMP Co.,Ltd.
HP1003 PULVERIZER-OPERATION
________________________________________________________
7. Inadequate warm up of the pulverizer prior to feeding coal - this is
hazardous as moist coal may plate out on the "cold" internals of the
pulverizer and fuel piping. This increases the potential for a fire to occur
in the milling system. See "Initial Start-up" procedure.

8. Inadequate cool down of pulverizer prior to shutting off coal flow - this is
hazardous as temperatures may exceed a safe limit for the remaining
coal/air mixture, this increases the likelihood of a pulverizer or coal pipe
fire/puff to occur. See "Normal Shutdown" procedure.

9. Operating a pulverizer with too high an output fineness -this is considered


less then optimal as increased fineness results in lower pulverizer
capacity and higher pulverizer motor power consumption. See
"Adjustment of Fineness."

10. Operating a pulverizer with too low an output fineness - this is considered
less then optimal as low pulverized coal fineness will adversely affect
furnace operation. See "Adjustment of Fineness."

PART 2 - PULVERIZER
OPERATING PROCEDURES

INITIAL START-UP

1. Before the pulverizer motor circuits are energized and the pulverizer is
run under power, all start permissives must be met. Refer to the controls
manufacturers instructions for start permissive interlocks.

2. Prior to starting the pulverizer, the following items should be checked:

a. Ensure that the pulverizer/motor coupling has been properly aligned


and connected and that the input shaft of the planetary gearbox can
be rotated by hand.

b. Confirm that the classifier blades were calibrated (adjusted internally


to the correct opening) and that the control levers are set in the
correct position, initial set point "3".

c. Ensure that the oil level in each journal assernbly is at the


recommended dip stick level.

d. Ensure that all personnel are clear of the pulverizer and all access
doors are securely fastened.

e. Ensure that the pyrite shutoff valve is open.

f. Ensure that an air flow path has been established through the
puIverizer and that all coal line valves and/or gates and the cold air
shutoff gate are open.

g. Ensure that cooling water flow to the lube oil cooler is established.
The water supply temperature should be maintained between
113°- 130°F (45°- 55℃)

3. Establish seal air to the journals. journal springs and bowl hub air seal.

4. Ensure that oil flow to the upper and lower gearbox bearings is
established and that the upper oil reservoir has filled with oil. Refer to the
controls manufacturer's - Lube Oil System Controls for interlocks. .(Use
visual indicators for verification.)

5. Start the pulverizer.

NOTE:During the initial start up of the pulverizer (commissioning) or


after replacing the thrust bearing pads, (before feeding coal to the
pulverizer) use a digital indicator wired to the gearbox RTDs to
compare the hydrodynamic thrust bearing temperatures with the lube
oil supply temperature. The hydrodynamic bearing temperatures
should stabilize at 18 ° to 36 ° F (10 ° to 20℃) above the oil inlet
temperature. If the temperature does not stabilize, stop the pulverizer
a n d c h e c k t o ensure an oil supply to the bearing sprays.

2-1

HP1003 PULVERIZER-OPERATION
________________________________________________________
6. Open the hot air shutoff gate. The pulverizer air control system should
adjust the hot and cold air dampers to provide the proper air flow and
bring the pulverizer up to its selected outlet temperature.

NOTE:The pulverizer should be maintained at its normal operating


temperature for a minimum of 15 minutes before feeding coal. Normal
operating temperature is 150 °F to 170 ° F (65℃ to 82℃) depending
upon operating experience with the available coal. The pulverizer must
be warmed so that the coal begins to dry as soon as it enters the
pulverizer. This warm-up procedure reduces the potential for coal pipe
plugging and promotes more stable coal ignition.

7. Establish ignition energy.

NOTE:Ignition energy can be ignitors, oil guns, gastorches or


adjacent proven pulverizers. The system controls establish the
parameters, refer to the control manufacturers instructions.

8. Start the coal feeder.

NOTE:With the feeder control in manual and set at minimum, coal


will automatically be fed at a rate equal to 25% of the pulverizer's
rated capacity. The feed rate should not be increased until the
pulverizer outlet temperature has returned to its set point value.

9. Check the furnace to ensure that coal fires are established and stable.

10. Increase the coal feed when the pulverizer outlet temperature has
returned to the set point.

NOTE:Coal feed can be increased in increments to the feed rate


required to support unit load increases. The second and successive
pulverizers should be placed in service when the loading on the
operating pulverizer(s) reaches 80%.

11. When the coal feed rate of a pulverizer has been increased to match
system demand, the feeder control should be placed on automatic.

NORMAL SHUTDOWN

NOTE:During a normal shutdown, the pulverizer should be cooled to


below normal operating temperature and be emptied of coal. The
recommended cool-down temperature prior to stopping the pulverizer
is 120°F (50℃).

1. Reduce the pulverizer load by reducing the feeder speed to minimum.

2-2
Page 44 of 130
________________________________________________________
SHMP Co.,Ltd.
HP1003 PULVERIZER-OPERATION
________________________________________________________
NOTE:This can be done by biasing the feeder control or by placing
the feeder control in manual mode. Reduce the feed rate in 10%
increments. At each reduced coal flow, the pulverizer outlet
temperature should be allowed to return to the set point value before
the coal feed is reduced further. Pulverizer air flow should be
maintained on automatic control.

NOTE:Observe the pulverizer outlet temperature, do not allow the


temperature to exceed the set point value by more than 15°F (8℃).

CAUTION: IGNITION ENERGY MUST BE AVAILABLE TO ENSURE


COAL STREAM IGNITION STABILITY.

2. When the feed rate is at minimum, close the hot air shutoff gate to
reduce the pulverizer outlet temperature.

NOTE:The cold air damper should automatically open to maintain


the required air flow.

3. Stop the feeder after the pulverizer has cooled to approximately 120°
F(50℃)

4. Run the pulverizer a minimum of 10 minutes to clear the bowl of coal.

NOTE:Low motor current can be used as an indication that grinding


has ceased.

5. Stop the pulverizer.

6. Throttle the cold air damper to approximately 5% open to allow a small


flow of air through the pulverizer for purging and cooling. The pulverizer
discharge valves (and coal pipe valves) should remain open.

NOTE:The minimum position of the cold air damper should be at an


automatic stop established during initial unit start- up (commissioning).
A minimum cooling air flow must be maintained through the pulverizer
at all times.

7. The lube oil system should continue in service.

NOTE:If a lube oil system must be shut down for any length of time
in cold weather when the associated pulverizer is out of service, it is
advisable to shut off the cooling water and drain the water from the oil
cooler. If ice has had an opportunity to form in the tubes, a careful
examination should be made before starting up to make sure that the
tubes have not ruptured, allowing cooling water to contaminate the oil.

EMERGENCY
SHUTDOWN

On loss of furnace ignition or if some other condition should arise which ne-
cessitates an automatic or manual emergency fuel trip, the pulverizer motor
should be stopped immediately. Stopping the pulverizer motor should trip the
feeder, and close the hot air shutoff gate.

An emergency trip subjects residual fuel in the pulverizer to conditions which


may cause spontaneous combustion. It is strongly recommended that an
automatic system be provided to render the pulverizer inert whenever the
pulverizer is tripped under load. The recommended inerting media is steam.

A pulverizer that has been tripped under load should be cooled to ambient
temperature. Then open the pulverizer and manually clean out the coal.

WARNING : A HOT PULVERIZER WILL DISTILL COMBUSTIBLE


GASES. FROM RESIDUAL COAL. THEREFORE USE CARE WHEN
OPENING THE PULVERIZER FOR CLEANING AFTER AN
EMERGENCY TRIP.

IF AN INERTING SYSTEM IS INSTALLED, THE INERTING VALVES


MUST BE PROVEN CLOSED BEFORE THE DOORS ARE OPENED.
USE EXTREME CARE WHEN OPENING THE INSPECTION DOORS,
BECAUSE THE PULVERIZER MAY BE PRESSURIZED. EYE
PROTECTION IS RECOMMENDED.

PURGE THE PULVERIZER OF COMBUSTIBL GASES AND /OR


INERTING MEDIUM BEFORE ENTERING FOR CLEANING

WARNING:ROLL PRESSURE ON COAL MOUNDED IN THE BOWL


COULD CAUSE THE BOWL TO ROTATE UNEXPECTEDLY WHEN
IT IS BEING CLEANED.TO PREVENT THIS FROM HAPPENING,
INSTALL AN "A" FRAME RESTRAINT ON THE PULVERIZER DRIVE
COUPLING.

1. Check that the hot and cold air shutoff gates, the discharge valves and
the pulverizer and feeder seal air valves are closed.

2. Use procedures established by your plant to ensure that the pulverizer


motor and feeder motor are deenergized and secured, breakers are
opened and tagged.

NOTE:Put on a face shield or goggles before performing the next


steps. Some coal dust and debris will discharge from around the door,
therefore, eye protection is recommended.

3. Carefully crack open the pyrites hopper door, then open it completely.

2-4

HP1003 PULVERIZER-OPERATION
________________________________________________________
5. After taking the necessary precautions, manually clean the pulverizer.

START-UP AFTER
EMERGENCY
SHUTDOWN

After any pulverizer trip under load, the pulverizers must be cooled to
ambient temperature, opened. and the coal manually removed. The
pulverizer can then be restarted using normal start-up procedures.

NOTE:As a precaution, upon start-up after an emergency trip, close


the discharge valves of all pulverizers not in service.This will prevent
hot furnace gases, at the higher than normalpressure caused by the
initial ignition of coal, from surging down the fuel piping into the
idlepulverizers.

Restart all pulverizers, one at a time, as soon as possible. Run each


pulverizer a minimum often minutes to ensure that any residual coal
which was not manually removed is air swept from the pulverizer.

NOTE:When pulverizers are back in service with the unit load


stabilized and all pulverizers have been restarted to remove residual
coal, the discharge valves of any idle pulverizers should be opened to
allow the required minimum air flow.

PULVERIZER FIRES

The two most common indications of a fire in a pulverizing system are:

1. A high or rapidly increasing pulverizer outlet temperature without other


cause, or

2. Paint peeling from the pulverizer and/or fuel piping.

The usual causes of pulverizer fires are:

1. Excessive pulverizer temperatures. Do not allow the pulverizer outlet


temperature to exceed the specified outlet temperature by more than
20°F (11℃).

2. Foreign material such as paper, rags, straw, wood and excelsior


collecting in the inner cone and other points in the pulverizer. These
materials do not pulverize readily and therefore should be kept out of the
raw fuel supply. When they get into the system, they collect and may
catch fire. Each time the pulverizer is opened for any reason, remove all
foreign materials from the air inlet, inner cone, bowl, etc.

2-5
Page 47 of 130
________________________________________________________
SHMP Co.,Ltd.
HP1003 PULVERIZER-OPERATION
________________________________________________________
3. Excessive accumulations of pyrites or coal on the mill bottom or in the air
inlet to the pulverizer. The valve on the tramp iron discharge spout
should be open to allow the free discharge of foreign materials into the
pyrites collection system. The valve may be closed momentarily for the
removal of pyrites from the collecting hopper. Accumulations of debris in
the air inlet should be removed whenever the pulverizer is open for
inspection. Scraper and guard assemblies should not be allowed to wear
excessively.

4. Excessive accumulations of coal in areas above the bowl. This condition


is usually brought about by lack of maintenance. Worn liners may allow
coal to accumulate in an area faster than the normal air flow will remove
it or to reach areas where it cannot be removed. Coal can also be
trapped by foreign material bridging a section of the pulverizer through or
over which the coal would normally move, i.e. an obstruction on top of a
liner cover plate.

5. Improper or unusual operation. Accumulations of coal or flammable


foreign material are a hazard under normal operating circumstances, but
in most cases they do not of themselves cause fires or puffs. Usually
some additional improper operating condition must initiate the trouble.
For instance, if a pulverizer is operated with low air flow, higher
pulverizer inlet temperatures are necessary to maintain the set outlet
temperature. The air flow may be low enough to allow additional settling
out of cqal from the air stream. These conditions can result in more heat,
less coal movement and potential trouble.

Another example would be failure to close the hot air gate when there is
reason to believe an operating condition may have allowed a fire to start.
Such a condition could be a sluggish damper drive mechanism or a
sluggish damper control system coupled with a substantial and rapid
change in coal moisture.

An example of unusual operation would be running coal through a


pulverizer from a bunker that is known to be on fire. Of course, extreme
care must be taken while doing this. Everything possible must be done to
ensure that coal feed is continuous at a moderate to heavy rate.

6. Feeder hot air. When the feeders use hot air, it is important to close the
feeder hot air valve whenever there is a possibility that the feeder will be
stopped for longer than 3 minutes with coal in it.

WARNING : IF A PULVERIZER SYSTEM FIRE DOES OCCUR,


REGARDLESS OF THE FIRE LOCATION, DO NOT SHUT DOWN
THE PULVERIZER AND NEVER OPEN ANY PULVERIZER
INSPECTION DOORS UNTIL ALL EVIDENCE OF THE FIRE HAS
DISAPPEARED AND THE PULVERIZER IS COOLED TO AMBIENT
TEMPERATURE.

DURING ANY FIRE EXTINGUISHING PROCEDURE, ALL


PERSONNEL NOT ACTIVELY FIGHTING THE FIRE SHOULD BE
CLEARED FROM THE PULVERIZER BAY, AIR DUCTS AND
FEEDER DECK AREA.

NOTE: A pulverizer fire is not eminently dangerous. As long as
pulverizer operating conditions are stable and normal, risk of an
explosion is minimal. Once a pulverizer fire has been detected, the fire
extinguishing procedure should be followed carefully and expediently.

COAL PULVERIZER
FIRE FIGHTING
PROCEDURE

Pulverizer fires are detected by high pulverizer outlet temperatures [tem-


peratures more than 20°F (11 ℃) above the specified outlet (normal operat-
ing) temperature]. Pulverizer outlet temperature detection devices should
monitor and alarm when the outlet temperature reaches a set point value.
This alerts operators to the potential presence of a fire.

1. At first indication of a fire, close the hot air shutoff gate and open the cold
air damper to 100% Continue feeding coal at a rate equal to or above the
feed rate that existed just prior to the fire. Use care not to overload the
pulverizer.

NOTE: Closing the hot air shutoff gate will frequently extinguish the
fire, if the pulverizer temperature continues to rise, it will be necessary
to cool the pulverizer by admitting water.

2. Close the pyrite hopper isolation valve.

3. Introduce water through the nozzles provided on the air inlet, millside
and separator top

NOTE: Nozzles are provided on the separator top, millside and air
inlet duct. It is recommended that the nozzles be connected to a
permanent piping system and water supply with suitable valving.

4. Continue to feed coal and water until the pulverizer outlet temperature
has dropped and all signs of fire are gone.

NOTE: Water should be admitted in such quantity and at such


location(s) as not to cause hang-up or interruption of the fuel feed or
disturb any deposit of combustible material.

5. Shut off the water supply.

6. Stop the coal feed.

7. Run the pulverizer for several minutes to purge the system of


accumulated coal and water.

8. Stop the pulverizer. Isolate the pulverizer by closing all gates and valves,
cold air shutoff valve, seal air valves, coal pipe shutoff valves, etc.

9. Use plant procedures, isolate the pulverizer and feeder motors, open
breakers and tag.

PART3-LUBRICATION
SYSTEMS

SYSTEM DESCRIPTIONS
(Refer to Figures 3-1
and 3-2)

There are two separate types of lubricating systems on a pulverizer, the


journal lube systems and the gearbox lube system

Journal Lube Systems

Each of the three journal assemblies has a self-contained oil bath lubrication
system. The journals are shipped over filled with the recommended lubricant
(see oil tag on journal). The oil level in each journal reservoir must be
checked and adjusted after the journals have been installed and before the
pulverizer is started-up. Determine the proper level by using the oil dip stick,
measure from the bottom of the oil reservoir. If the customer will use a
different brand of oil for replacement or make up, the oil should be replaced
with customer supplied lubricant prior to start up.

NOTE: The journal oil level must be checked periodically (at least
once every 6 months).

CAUTION: DO NOT OVER FILL THE JOURNAL ASSEMBLY OIL


RESERVOIR. TOO MUCH OIL MAY DAMAGE THE OIL SEALS.

Gearbox Lube System

The second lubricating system is for the gearbox assembly. It is a


combination of oil bath and sprays with provisions for external cooling and
filtering. An oil pump driven by an electric motor supplies the required
circulation. (Refer to vendor instructions elsewhere in this manual for detailed
information.)

LUBRICATION OF THE MAIN DRIVE GEARS AND BEARINGS

The gearbox is supplied with pressurized oil, from an external lube oil system.
Each bearing is provided with an individual oil supply, spray nozzles, or flood
lubrication. Cooled oil is sprayed onto the hydrodynamic bearing, the oil is
retained in a reservoir to submerge the hydrodynamic bearing in an oil bath.
The oil level in the reservoir is kept constant via over flow dams.

EXTERNAL LUBE OIL SYSTEM

An electric motor drives the oil pump that is mounted on the external lube oil
tank. Oil is discharged to duplex type filters and then through an oil cooler
where excess heat is dissipated.

A relief valve, installed between the pump and filter, provides protection from
over pressurization and also allows for oil recirculation during heat up of the
lube oil system.

3-1
Page 56 of 130
________________________________________________________
SHMP Co.,Ltd.
HP1003 PULVERIZER-OPERATION
________________________________________________________
For warm up after an extended shutdown or during cold weather, a
thermostatically controlled heater is installed in the bottom of the lube oil tank.

Check valves, installed at the filter outlet and a vented loop in the supply line
prevents oil from draining out of the hydrodynamic bearing reservoir back to
the lube oil tank when the oil pump is turned off. The valves also allow work to
be performed on the lube oil pump without draining the oil from the gearbox.
Pressure gauges, thermometers, oil level and oil flow indicators provide visual
indications of lube oil system conditions.

Pressure switches, level switches, and temperature sensors provide for both
audible and visual alarms. Signals from these switches are used by the
control systems to establish pulverizer start-up permissives and can cause a
pulverizer shutdown if the condition which initiated the alarm condition is not
corrected.

The controls (time delays, interlocks, relays) which are used in conjunction
with the switches are described in a separate part of the manual. Basically,
the control logic (in conjunction with the various switches) provides interlocks
between the pump, heaters, filter, and the sensors for oil level, oil temperature
and oil pressure to aid in proper operation of the lubrication system. This
ensures adequate lubrication of the pulverizer gearbox. However, routine
operator inspections must also be performed to assure proper operation of the
lube system components.

LUBE OIL SKID

The following paragraphs describe the components associated with the lube
oil tank. For detailed information refer to the vendor's instructions elsewhere
in this manual.

Flow Switch

The flow switch is located on the oil supply pipe at the outlet from the cooler.
It actuates an alarm if oil flow to the gearbox is low.

Heat Exchanger (Oil Cooler)

The lube oil system is designed to have the heat exchanger operating at all
times. The heat exchanger, supplied with each lube oil system, is sized to
remove all the excess heat generated within the gearbox. Heat generated is
due to inefficiency of the gearing, bearing friction and the lube oil pump. Heat
also comes from the hot primary air to the pulverizer which is conducted down
through the bowl hub to the gear case.

The heat exchanger continually removes heat from the system to insure an
acceptable oil viscosity for protection of the bearings and gears. The heat
exchanger is sized to remove this heat based on a maximum water inlet
temperature and minimum specified water flow. A valve should be installed by
the customer on the water supply side of the heat exchanger to regulate the
water flow. Instrumentation must be supplied (by the customer) to monitor the
water inlet and outlet temperatures. Based on the water temperature and oil
temperature, the water flow should be adjusted to maintain a steady oil
temperature exiting the heat exchanger, approximately 104°F (40℃).

HP1003 PULVERIZER-OPERATION
________________________________________________________
The following are possible causes of excess cooling water and/or oil
temperatures. These items should be checked and corrected as required if
temperatures exceed the recommended values.

1. Insufficient quantity of cooling water (increase flow). Check valve to


insure that water is flowing through the heat exchanger.

2. Temperature of water at cooler inlet above maximum allowable (reduce


temperature).

3. Low oil level in oil tank (refill promptly).

4. Tank heater thermostat not properly adjusted (reset the thermostat).

5. Scale formation in heat exchanger (increase water flow if possible). If oil


temperature normalizes, clean heat exchanger (per manufacturer's
instructions) at first opportunity.

6. Breakdown of lubricant or foaming (change oil).

NOTE: The first oil change should take place after 1000 hours of
operation. If the oil cannot be periodically analyzed then it should be
changed every 18 months or after approximately 6,000/8,000 hours of
operation (reference gearbox vendor's manual).

In cold weather, a slight flow of water should always be allowed to pass


through the heat exchanger to prevent water from freezing in the exchanger.

Lube Oil Filters

A .duplex oil filter is installed. Each filter is equipped with a differential pres-
sure indicator to show the cleanliness of the elements. If the elements are not
maintained and become clogged continued operation will result in a high
differential pressure alarm and, if not corrected, a low oil pressure trip of the
pulverizer. A three-way and check valves ensure isolation of the inactive filter
for servicing.

Lube Oil Pump

The external lube pump is used to pump oil into the gearbox. The constant
volume pump can be operated if the pulverizer motor is off. The resultant oil
pressure is dependent on oil temperature, viscosity, line sizes, spray nozzle
diameter and restrictions such as the filter and heat exchanger.

Gauges

Oil pressure gauges are located between the pump outlet and filter, between
the filter and heat exchanger and after the heat exchanger. These are used to
verify the pump outlet pressure and the pressure drops across the filter and
heat exchanger.

3-3
Page 58 of 130

SHMP Co.,Ltd.
HP1003 PULVERIZER-OPERATION
________________________________________________________
Temperature gauges are located on the oil tank and after the heat exchanger.
These gauges indicate the temperature of the oil supply in the tank and to the
bearings.

Switches

A level switch is installed in the oil tank to provide an indication of an


adequate oil level.

A differential pressure switch is provided across the filters to indicate the


cleanliness of the operating filter element.

A pressure switch is provided after the heat exchanger to assure that


adequate oil pressure is present.

A flow switch is provided after the heat exchanger to assure adequate oil flow
to the gears and bearings.

Relief Valve

A relief valve is located at the pump outlet and routes oil back to the tank This
valve is set to open during certain phases of operation. Oil can flow through
this valve continuously.

Heaters

The oil h eater located in the bottom of the oil tank is used to warm the oil and
satisfy the oil temperature start permit when the pulverizer is off. The heater
has an integral thermostat which will shut the heater off when the oil
temperature exceeds a preset value. If the pulverizer and heater have been
off for a long time and the ambient conditions are very cold, it can take
several hours to warm the oil in the tank.

GEARBOX LUBE
SYSTEM
OPERATION

A control system is provided to ensure adequate lubrication of gearbox com-


ponents. Refer to "Lubrication System Instrumentation and Controls"
elsewhere in the manual for details. Typically the system operates as follows:

Start-up

1. Ensure that the oil level and temperature in lube oil tank is satisfactory.

2. Satisfy all lube system start permits as required by the controls logic.

3. Start the lube oil pump.

4. After lube system is operating, check the oil flow, oil temperature and oil
pressure.

NOTE: In general, the heat exchanger is required when the pulverizer


ls operating and the lube oil heater ls required when the pulverizer is
off. They should not be used at the same time, as they have opposing
functions.

CAUTION: ASSURE THAT THERE IS ADEQUATE OIL IN THE


UPPER GEARBOX RESERVOIR (HYDRODYNAMIC THRUST
BEARING) PRIOR TO STARTING THE PULVERIZER.

5. After the pulverizer is running, adjust the water flow to the heat
exchanger as necessary to maintain the proper oil supply temperature.

6. Periodically check oil flow, oil temperature and oil pressure.

Shutdown

NOTE: When the pulverizer is in operation, the lube oil system must
not be shut down. If it is, the pulverizer will be automatically tripped.

1. After a pulverizer has been shut down, the lube system should be allowed
to run, filtered, heated oil will continue to lubricate the bearings and
maintain the pulverizer ready for instant restart.

2. Once the pulverizer has cooled enough to enter for maintenance, the
customer may elect to shut down the lube system.

3. If the pulverizer is shut down for a long time and the customer has
elected to shut down the lube system. the gearbox bearings and gears
should be lubricated per the lay up procedure (see vendor's manual) or
the lube system can be run for three hours every two months.

COAL FINENESS
ADJUSTMENT
AND TESTING

ADJUSTMENT OF
FINENESS

A wide range of lineness levels can be obtained with the air separation
concept of classification utilized in HP pulverizers. The deflector blade
(external adjustment) mechanism allows for on-line coal fineness adjustment
which is both accurate and trouble free.

The size distribution of any particulate sample is measured as the percentage


of the material passing through a series of test sieves. For pulverized coal,
the percent of sample passing through 50, 100, and 200 mesh sieves is the
current industry standard. The proper method of taking and sieving a
pulverized coal sample is described below in "Pulverized Coal Sampling" and
"Pulverized Coal Fineness Testing".

The fineness level for which the pulverizing system was designed is specified
in the contract documents. From experience (based on coal type and furnace
design), it has been determined that this level of fineness will provide
acceptable furnace operation with regards to the percent of unburned carbon,
emissions, efficiency, and slagging. It is possible, however, that a higher level
of fineness may be required to achieve the furnace performance goals.
Conversely, it is also possible that lower than specified fineness will result in
acceptable furnace operation. In either case, adjustments should be made
and fineness should be set at the lowest level which will result in acceptable
furnace performance.

Pulverizer fineness is adjusted by moving the control lever(s) on the separator


top. The lever(s) is attached by link rods to multiple deflector blades within the
pulverizer separator top. When the lever is set on "0" the deflector blades are
in their most open position. This will result in the lowest fineness level
obtainable. Adjusting the lever(s) to a higher position number (0 ⇒ 10), closes
the deflector blades resulting in higher fineness levels.

If the fineness of the coal is too coarse and the lever(s) is set on its highest
effective position (may not be "10"), other pulverizer adjustments will be
required (see Trouble Shooting Chart). If the coal fineness is too high and the
lever(s) is set on "0" then the deflector blades can be reindexed (reset to a
more open position) (refer to "HP Pulverizer Maintenance - Pulverizer
Component Servicing, Classifier Deflector Blade Replacement"). Other
pulverizer adjustments may be required as well (refer to Trouble Shooting
Chart).

PULVERIZED COAL
FINENESS TESTING

This procedure describes the sampling and testing parameters recommended


by SHMP. Coal sampling procedures should use good sampling technique
and consistent sampling locations.
Location

The location where a pulverized coal sample in taken has a definite effect on
the coal fineness result. It is recommended that all samples be taken at the
recommended location, just above the discharge valve in coal dust pipe.
These locations should be equipped with aspirated fittings that will allow for
proper sam pl ing without expelling coal dust into the atmosphere.

Pulverizer Loading

In order to obtain fineness test results that can be compared between


pulverizers and are repeatable, it is necessary that pulverizer and furnace
conditions be maintained at set levels while the coal samples are being
obtained. Unit load should be high enough that the pulverizer being sampled
can be placed on manual control at or near its full load rating during the
testing period. The pulverizer should be allowed to operate at that level for
about ten minutes before taking the sample.If there is a pulverizer or unit
upset during the testing peried, the coal sample should be discarded. New
samples should be obtained later.

NOTE: Other pulverizers in the system may be left on automatic


control to accommodate small swings In unit load.

Since pulverizer performance is different at varying loads coal fineness test


should always be run at the same pulverizer loading, that is, coal fineness
samples taken at a sixty percent pulverizer loading should not be compared
with samples taken at eighty-five percent pulverizer loading.

Pulverizers with obvious indications of trouble (heavy coal spillage, rumbling,


etc.) should not be tested until problems are corrected.

Equipment

Pulverized coal samples should only be taken with an powdered coal


sampling device . It is recommended to use a large cyclone collector
equipped with a thin wall sampling nozzle (probe). It is important that the
cyclone and the sampling nozzle be in an "as new" condition. Dents. Leaking
seams, and/or a damaged sampling nozzle tip can have an effect on the
fineness of the sample and will give incorrect results. The sampling nozzle
must be long enough for the tip to reach across the full diameter of the coal
pipe at the sampling location. Repair or replace the equipment as necessary
to ensure accurate fineness test results.

HP1003 PULVERIZER-OPERATION
________________________________________________________
Taking a Pulverizer
Coal Sample

Prior to taking a sample, lt is good practice to warm up the cyclone and the
sampling nozzle. This can be done by placing the sampling device on top of
the pulverizer for 5 to 10 minutes. Warming of the sampling device will help
prevent plugging as It will reduce the potential for plating of coal inside the
cyclone. During the winter or in cold environments, it may be necessary to
insulate the cyclone. This can be done by wrapping the cyclone with cork,
foam rubber, or fiber glass insulation.

The aspirated fittings on the coal pipes should be working properly before
attempting to take coal samples. Proper operation means that the aspirati ng
air pressures can be adjusted (equalized with the pressures in the coal pipe
being sampled) so that air flow is neither into or out of the coal pipe.

Taking a pulverized coal sample is a simple operation, but care must be


exercised to do it properly.

1. Turn on the air supply to the aspirated fitting and remove the pipe plug.

2. Throttle the air supply valve until coal just "puffs" from the fitting. Then
open the air supply valve slightly until a pressure balance is achieved.

NOTE: Traverse the coal pipe in a continuous stroke. The traverse


should be performed as smooth as possible for a set time (such as 30
sec., 15 sec. in and 15 sec. out). The time of the traverse for each
sampling location should be the same. This can be accomplished by
using a watch or counting during the traverse.

3. Take the coal sample by inserting the sampling nozzle through the
aspirated fitting with the opening in the end of the probe pointed into the
coal flow.

NOTE: The total time used to take the coal sample will have an effect
on the quantity of coal collected in the collection jar(s). A sufficient
quantity of coal must be collected to perform the fineness test and/or
any other test that is required (such as a moisture test). Ensure that
equal quantities of coal are obtained from each of the coal pipes
sampled.

When sampling, fill the mason jar to no more than the half or three-quarter
level (1/2-3/4 qt). If the quantity of coal over fills the jar, the sample should be
discarded and the test repeated with shorter traverse times. If an insufficient
quantity of coal is obtained, then the traverse tim e per aspirated fitting should
be increased.

4. Tap the cyclone gently to shake any coal that adheres to the inside of the
cyclone into the jar. This coal must be included in the sample.

NOTE: It may be necessary to use a separate collection jar for each


coal pipe or sampling point.

4-3

SHMP Co.,Ltd.
HP1003 PULVERIZER-OPERATION
________________________________________________________
5. Seal the collection jar or place the coal sample in a sealed, air tight
plastic bag(s) until required for analysis.

Sieving

NOTE: The following is excerpted and revised from the ASME and
ASTM Procedures. If time ls available, the ASTM and ASME
procedures may be used.

PREPARING THE PULVERIZER COAL SAMPLE

NOTE: The proper procedures for performing a fineness test is to air


dry the pulverized coal sample prior to sieving. Since this is time
consuming it may not be practical when a fast turn around of fineness
data is required.

Mix the total fineness sample (all samples taken from a pulverizer during one
test) thoroughly.

1. Empty the sample jar(s) onto a large sheet of plastic, rubber, or glazed
paper.

2. Roll the sample by raising one corner of the sheet and then the other to
cause the coal to roll over itself at least 50 times.

3. Roll the sample into a cigar shape.

4. Using a small spatula, take samples at regular intervals and weigh out 50
grams on a balance type scale capable of 0.1 gram accuracy.

5. Place the remaining sample in an air tight container for future testing.

The sample should be saved until the results of the sieving operation are
obtained. If results are questionable, resieving or resampling may be
necessary.

SIEVING THE COAL SAMPLE

NOTE: If a moisture test will be performed, then one half of the gross
sample should be placed in an air tight container after the
rolling/mixing procedure has been completed.

NOTE: Some coals that are high in moisture content will ball up on the
50 mesh sieve. This is an indication that the coal is too wet and it must
be dried before sieving. Drying can be accomplished by placing the
coal in an appropriate drying oven as outlined In the ASTM and ASME
procedures.

Prepare a stack of three sieves (50 mesh, 100 mesh, 200 mesh) with the 50
mesh on top, and the 200 mesh on the bottom. The sieves should be thorough
ly cleaned prior to use by brushing and tapping, or by blowing low pressure air
through them. Place a catch pan on the bottom of the stack. Provide a tight
fitting cover for the top.

4-4
Page 65 of 130

SHMP Co.,Ltd.
HP1003 PULVERIZER-OPERATION
________________________________________________________
1. Place the pulverizer coal sample that was previously weighed out in the
top sieve.

NOTE: A "Rotap" type shaker is recommended. The mechanical


shaker must be capable of producing a rotary motion of the sieves and
vibrating the sieves by means of a suitable tapping device. A machine
that just vibrates the sieves is not adequate.

2. Install the cover and place the stack in a "Rotap"or equivalent machine.

3. Shake the sample for 5 minutes.

4. Remove the sieves and brush the bottom of the 200 mesh sieve
with a 1" stiff bristle brush so that all of the 200 mesh coal falls into
the pan.

5. Weigh and record the weight of the contents of the pan.

6. Discard the contents from the pan then reassemble the pan with the
sieve stack and place it back on the shaker.

7. Shake the remaining sample for two additional 5 minute periods, re-
peating steps 4. and 5. the cleaning and weighing procedures.

NOTE: If the contents of the pan after the last shake is more than 0.2
grams, then the 5 minute shaking procedure should be repeated until
there is less than 0.2 grams in the pan. Add the weights of all samples
discarded.

To ensure that results are correct, the balance of the sample must be weighed
after shaking is completed to determine the quantity of coal tllat was +50
mesh, +100 mesh and +200 mesh. This is accomplished in the following
manner:

1. Remove the cover and the 50 mesh sieve from the stack.

2. Brush the bottom of the 50 mesh sieve over the 100 mesh sieve so that
any —50 coal is included in the 100 mesh sample. Rap the sieve lightly
with the brush handle to get all of the coal out of the sieve.

3. Weigh and record the weight of the contents of the 50 mesh sieve.

4. Repeat this procedure, steps 2. and 3.,for the 100 mesh and 200 mesh
sieves.

The weight of coal from each sieve is then added to the weight of coal from
the previous sieve(s). These weights are then used to calculate the coal
fineness as follows:

Sieve Weight on Calculations Calculations Fineness

Mesh Sieve(g) %+(Mesh) %-(Mesh)


50 "x"=0.5 "X"x 2 = 1.0 100-1.0= 1.0%(+50)
99.0%(-50)

100 "Y"=5.2 ("X"+"Y") x 2 = 11.4 100 -11.4= 88.6%(-100)

200 "Z"=10.9 ("X"+"Y"+"Z") x 2 = 31.2 100 -31.2= 68.8%(-200)

The total weight of the sample weighed plus the weight of the —200 mesh
coal (coal through the 200 mesh sieve) should total 48.5 to 51.5 grams. If the
total weight is not within this range, the test should be rerun. Pulverizer
Performance and Coal Fineness should be recorded for future reference. A
suggested form is shown in Figure 4-1.

To check the validity of the test, the results should be plotted on a


RoslinRammler sieves chart. If the fineness results do not plot on or close to a
straight line, then the equipment or sampling procedures should be checked.

PART 1 - GENERAL
MAINTENANCE
PROCEDURES

GENERAL
MAINTENANCE

The pulverizer is a rugged machine, designed and built for continuous


operation over an extended period, with minimal wear on the working parts.
However, iron pyrites and other abrasive substances in the coal will shorten
the life of parts such as the rolls, bull ring, deflector liners, intermediate liners,
vane wheel liners, millside liners, inner cone liners and scrapers.

Since wear of pulverizer parts depends on many factors that vary from one
installation to another, it is difficult to prescribe a specific routine inspection
and maintenance program. Characteristics of the coal, .operating hours of
individual pulverizers, availability of pulverizers due to unit load demands,
and availability of maintenance personnel are all factors that determine the
frequency and scheduling of pulverizer inspections and maintenance. An
effective program can be established only on the basis of actual plant
operating experience. It is, therefore, imperative that an accurate log be
maintained on each pulverizer from initial installation, to relate individual
pulverizer running time (see NOTE) with pulverizer performance, plant
operating schedules, unit load, outages, inspection reports and other
associated data.

NOTE: Pulverizer wear is a function of the number of hours a


pulverizer is grinding coal, not necessarily the amount, in tons, of coal
pulverized. While operating at reduced capacities a pulverizer will last
somewhat longer, but will grind much less tonnage before it becomes
necessary to replace parts.

Pulverizer part replacement criteria cannot always be defined in advance.


They must be established on the basis of experience and judgment on the
part of personnel familiar with the pulverizer history and performance. The
degree, location and pattern of wear will soon become evident and can be
handled accordingly. In some cases wear surfaces can be built up; in other
instances, replacement of the part is more practical. The following list
describes the pulverizer parts normally subject to wear:

1. Bull Ring and Rolls

Reduced pulverizer capacity and increased spillage are indications of


excessive wear. Contour templates, made when the equipment is new, may
aid in checking the degree and location of wear as it progresses.

2. Deflector Liners, Intermediate Liners, and Vane Liner Assemblies

Some pulverizers are supplied with ceramic or other types of internal Iiners,
their degree of wear Will vary considerably from one installation to another
and sometimes between pulverizers at the same plant. Individual liners must
be replaced when thinning and holes indicate excessive wear.

1-1
Page 72 of 130

SHMP Co.,Ltd.
HP1003 PULVERIZER - MAINTENANCE
________________________________________________________
3. Vane Wheel

Maintain a clearance of 1/2 in.±1/8 in. (12.7 mm :±3.2 mm) between the top
of the vane wheel adjustable shroud and the bottom of the intermediate and
deflector liners. Replace shroud when adjustments can no longer be made.
Replace vane wheel segments and/or air restriction segments if excessively
worn.

4. Bowl Extension Ring

The ring should be replaced when worn excessively.

5. Pulverizer Bottom Cover Plates

Replace cover plates when worn. Wear can be minimized by maint- aining
proper support of the scraper blades.

6. Millside Liners and Air Inlet Vanes

Excessive rejects will cause wear on liners and edges of vanes. Replace or
rebuild if excessively worn.

7. Scrapers

Bottom edges are most susceptible to wear and can be built up with welding
material. Maintaining proper support (pins and bushings) helps to minimize
wear.

8. Pulverizer Discharge Valves

Excessive clearance in closed position is an indication of wear. Disc outside


diameter can be built up by welding and remachining.

Most inspection and repair work inside the pulverizer above the bowl can be
accomplished by removing one journal opening cover and one journal shaft
assembly. Work below the bowl can usually be done through the pulverizer
millside access door(s).

WARNING: WHEN MAINTENANCE IS REQUIRED ON A


PULVERIZER WHILE THE UNIT IS IN OPERATION, MAKE SURE
THE PULVERIZER IS COMPLETELY ISOLATED (DAMPERS, GATES,
FIRE SUPPRESSION SYSTEMS, AND VALVES CLOSED, MOTOR
CIRCUIT BREAKERS LOCKED OPEN, AND THE MEANS FOR
OPERATING THIS EQUIPMENT SUITABLY TAGGED) BEFORE
ENTERING THE PULVERIZER.

CAUTION: WHEN WELDING ON A BOWL, ROLL OR ANY PART OF


THE PULVERIZER, THE WELDING MACHINE SHOULD BE
GROUNDED TO THE COMPONENT BEING WELDED IN ORDER TO
PREVENT ARCING ACROSS BEARINGS IN THE GEAR CASE OR
JOURNALS.

1-2
Page 73 of 130

SHMP Co.,Ltd.
HP1003 PULVERIZER - MAINTENANCE
________________________________________________________
9. Bearings
Unusual noise and operating temperatures consistently above normal are
indications of impending bearing failure. Bearings should be inspected at the
first opportunity.

10. Gearbox

These components usually give long, trouble-free service. However, failure of


other components can accelerate their wear.

Interference Fits

Where components have been designed with interference fits, it is frequently


necessary to heat and/or cool the mating parts to facilitate assembly.

HEATING

Heat must be applied uniformly to the entire piece. Acetylene torches with
rosebud tips are not recommended, since heating by this method is not
sufficiently uniform. Heat can best be supplied in a commercial type oven or
an oil bath. However, it is also possible to shroud the part in an insulated
enclosure and increase the part temperature with space heaters, or stress
relieving blankets. A 2 hour minimum for heating ls recommended.

CHILLING

Components can be chilled in a commercial freezer. They may also be chilled


in a dry ice and alcohol bath (—40°F,—40℃) or by packing in dry ice. Before
submerging a part in a chilling bath, it should be coated with a thin layer of
grease. Components should be chilled for a minimum of 3 hours.

DISASSEMBLY

INTRODUCTION

This section of the manual has been prepared to serve as a guide in


maintaining HP Pulverizers. It does not cover all possible variations in
equipment nor provide solutions for special problems which may arise. Should
additional information be required,SHANGHAI HEAVY MACHINERY PLANT
Co.Ltd (SHMP) should be contacted.

It must be recognized that no amount of written instructions can replace in-


telligent thinking and reasoning by maintenance personnel and boiler op-
erators, especially under unpredictable conditions. It is the responsibility of the
maintenance person or operator to become completely familiar with the
equipment covered in this manual, along with the pertinent control and aux-
iliary equipment.

Maintenance of controls and auxiliary equipment associated with the pul-


verizer but not provided by SHMP is the sole responsibility of the
owner/operator and their maintenance and operating personnel.

For most maintenance procedures a complete general disassembly of the


pulverizer is not required. Access to all internal wear parts can be made
through the three journal opening covers or the separator body and m illside
access doors. To facilitate maintenance on the drive components, the gear-
box assembly is removable. This is accomplished by disconnecting the bowl
assembly from the gearbox, lifting the bowl assembly within the separator
body and allowing the gearbox to slide out from underthe millside assembly.
Once the gearbox is removed from under the pulverizer, access to the drive
components is through the gearbox access cover. Refer to the instructions
provided by the gearbox manufacturer.

The following text provides procedures for removal and installation of the
individual pulverizer components necessary to permit the inspection and
maintenance of the wear parts and drive components of the pulverizer.
Illustrations depict a sequence for disassembly and assembly. Review the
Bowl Mill Cross Section (drawing K7038.00) for orientation and location of
major components. Detailed procedures covering the repair of major
subassemblies can be found in other sections of this manual.

For example:
The HP1003 pulverizers spring rate is 15000 lb/in (2627N/mm) and the
recommended preload is 6810Kgf (66738N).
For a spring with a spring rate (K) of 15000lb/in (268110Kgf/m operating at a
preload of 6810Kgf (66738N) calculate the distance to extract the housing as
follows:

Preload(lbs) Preload(N)
+0.50in. = "X"in. OR: +12.7mm = "X"mm
Spring Rate (lb/in.) Spring Rate(N/mm)

15000lbs 66738N
+0.50in. = 1.5in. oR: +12.7mm = 38.1mm
15000lb/in. 2627N/mm

5. Snug by hand the four outboard heavy hex nuts against the spring hous-
ing flange.

6. Bolt the hydraulic cylinder to the spring preload fixture.

trode manufacturer

Application of
Weld Plugs

NOTE: Hold a short arc to float molten flux to the top of the weld. Fill
weld plug 1/3 to 1/2 full. Do not over fill.

The following welding procedures are taken verbatim from Section 4.21, 'Plug
Welds' of the American Welding Society Structural Welding Code D 1.1
These procedures should be adhered to during the installation of any weld
plugs.

1. 'For welds to be made in the flat position, each shall be deposited around
the root of the joint and then deposited along a spiral path to the center of
the hole, fusing and depositing a layer of weld metal in the root and
bottom of the joint. The arc is then carried to the periphery of the hole
and the procedure is repeated, fusing and depositing successive layers to
fill the hole to the required depth. The slag covering the weld metal
should be kept molten until the weld is finished. If the arc is broken or the
slag is allowed to cool, the slag must be completely removed before
restarting the weld.'

4 - 24
Page 122 of 130
________________________________________________________
SHMP Co.,Ltd.
HP1003 PULVERIZERS - MAINTENANCE
________________________________________________________
2. 'For welds to be made in the vertical position, the arc is started at the root
of the joint at the lower side of the hole and is carried upward, fusing into
the face of the inner plate and to the side of the hole. The arc is stopped
at the top of the hole, the slag is cleaned off, and the process is repeated
on the opposite side of the hole. After cleaning slag from the weld other
layers should be similarly deposited to fill the hole to the required depth.'

3. 'For welds to be made in the overhead position, the procedure is the


same as for the flat position, except that the slag should be allowed to
cool and should be completely removed after depositing each successive
bead until the hole is filled to the required depth.'

Installation of Tiles
- General

1. Clean the metal surfaces thoroughly. The surface must be free of dirt,
dust, oil, rust or scale. Clean with solvent. Sandblast or grind if required.

2. Scribe lines to be used as guides to assure proper layout of tiles.

3. The application of the tile should begin with the bottom or lower course.
Proper alignment at this stage is critical. Misalignment here will be
compounded as additional courses of tile are added.

4. Trial fit the tiles, note location of excessive gaps between tiles and mat-
ing parts. Trim tile as required to ensure a snug fit.

NOTE: The purpose of the adhesive sealant cement is to secure the


tile to the steel, and to provide a solid back-up by filling the void
between the tile and steel. Too much cement will make the weld plug
welding difficult (or impossible) and reduce the cohesive properties of
the product.

5. Using the adhesive sealant cartridge in a caulking gun, apply a thin coat
(bead) of adhesive to the back of the ceramic tile. Use a thicker coating
in areas observed with excessive gaps. Do not apply the adhesive near
the weld plug hole. The eventual weld must not be contaminated with the
adhesive.

6. After the first course of tile is in place and properly aligned, weld plugs
should be inserted and welded. Use the recommended welding procedure.
Refer to Page 4 - 29.

CAUTION: THE WELDS SHOULD BE MADE AS QUICKLY AS


POSSIBLE SO THAT A MINIMUM AMOUNT OF HEAT IS
TRANSFERRED TO THE LINERS. EXCESSIVE HEAT WILL CAUSE
THE LINERS TO CRACK.

4 - 25
Page 123 of 130

SHMP Co.,Ltd.
HP1003 PULVERIZERS - MAINTENANCE
________________________________________________________
7. Continue the attachment of successive courses of tiles. Maintain a check
on alignment with scribed lines. Close adherence to the piece mix in each
course count is essential to minimize openings between tiles. Each piece
of tile has a number 1 or 2 embossed on the wear surface. Any special
cut pieces are also marked for identification. Welding of metal plugs
other than the first course as described in Step 6. can be done after all
the tiles have been cemented in place.

8. It may be necessary to cut the last piece of ceramic tile in each course.

9. The last piece, closing tile, should be cut to fit the opening. A masonry
saw and diamond blade are required.

10. Open joints should not exceed 1/16 in. (3.17 mm) and should be filled
with the adhesive sealant (silicone) cement, such as RTV Sealer, trow-
eled flush with the surface of the liner.

NOTE: RTV Sealer and Duromar HAR requires approximately 24


hours to cure completely, however, both set up rapidly (approximately
1/2 hour).

11. Fill the weld plug holes with Duromar HAR and trowel flush with the sur-
face of the liner.

Trouble Shooting

LARGE GAPS BETWEEN TILE

Possible cause and remedies are as follows:

1. Improper piece mix - check drawing for proper count and mix.

2. Improper alignment-check scribed alignment lines and correct as


required.

3. First (bottom) course has been installed improperly - check against the
print provided.

4. Improperly fabricated liners - check print provided.

TILE IS CRACKING

1. Possible cause and remedies are as follows:

2. Too much heat - use smaller diameter welding rod. Decrease weld
puddle and fill.

WELDS NOT FUSING

Possible cause and remedies are as follows:

1. Area contaminated- burn cement away [700°F (371 ℃)]

2. Surface scale - clean by grinding or sandblasting.

LINER REPLACEMENT
(GENERAL)

NOTE: Refer to the specific segment, i.e. inner cone, venturi vane,
etc., for reference illustrations and drawings.

Individual ceramic tiles and other liners held in place with weld plugs can be
replaced as follows:

1. Remove the damaged or worn tile/liner.

2. Clean the metal seating surface, grind off the old weld plugs.

3. Fit the New tile/liner in the area voided by the original. Maintain a clear-
ance of 0.12 in. (3 mm) between liners.

4. Secure the new liner with adhesive and weld plugs. See 'Application of
Weld Plugs', Page 4-26.

5. After all damaged liners have been replaced, fill the weld plug holes with
Duromar HAR and the spaces between the liners with RTV Sealer.
Trowel all surfaces flush.

CAUTION: PROTRUSIONS OR SHARP BREAKS BETWEEN LINERS


CAN CAUSE EDDIES AND COAL/AIR FLOW DISTURBANCES
WHICH WILL ACCELERATE WEAR ON THE ADJOINING TILES.

Installation Procedures
for Inner Cone Liners

NOTE: Reference Ceramic wear tiles and weld plugs are supplied per
Drawing K7038.6.0.

1. Reference the preceding procedures 'Application of Weld Plugs' and


'Installation of Tiles -General' for weld plug and liner application.

2. To provide access, remove journal opening covers and tilt out journal

NOTE: Individual liners can be replaced per Liner Replacement, Page


4 - 27. If it becomes necessary to install or replace an entire deflector
assembly use the steps below.

2. If damaged or worn remove the deflector liner support plate.

3. Center the new deflector liner support plate between the journal openings.
The lower edge should be positioned 2.5in.+0.25in./-0.00in.
(63.5mm+6.3mm/-0.0 mm) below the separator body flange. Fillet weld
the support plate to the separator body on both ends and across the top.

4. Install the deflector side (right end) liner. Allow 0.12 in. (3.0 mm) between
the liner and the separator body, the lower face of the liner should be
flush with the lower edge of the support plate. Install weld plugs and
weld.

5. Install the deflector side (left end) liner. The front faces of the liner should
set back 0.12 in. (3.0 mm) from the front edge of the liner support plate.
Trim if necessary to provide 0.12 in. (3.0 mm) clearance from the
separator body. Insert weld plugs and weld.

6. Scribe a horizontal line at the break line between the lower and middle
tile, along the long edges of the tile.

7. Install the bottom row of liners starting at the right end. Allow 0.12 in. (3.0
mm) between the liners. At the left end the liners should be trimmed to
overhang the left end liner by 0.25 in. (6.4 mm) Install weld plugs and
weld.

8. The middle and top rows of deflector liners should be installed using the
procedures in Step 7.

9. After all three sets of deflector liners have been installed, install the in-
termediate liners starting at the left end. Maintain 0.12 in. (3.0 mm) gap
between the liners. Trim the right intermediate liner as required. Insert
weld plugs and weld.

10. Fill all the weld plug holes with Duromar HAR filler and trowel flush.

11. Fill all the gaps between liners with RTV Sealer.

12. Close up the pulverizer by tilting in the journals and replacing the journal
opening covers as described in the General Reassembly Procedures.

NOTES:

1. ALL THE LUBRICANTS CAN MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF ABOVE


TECHNICAL PARAMETERS AS LONG AS THEY ACCORD WITH THE LATEST
ACCEPTANCE CRITERION OF AGMA ABOUT INDUSTRIAL CLOSE GEAR
TRANSMISSION #250.0X.

2. IT IS NOT RECOMMENDED TO USE MOLYBDENUM BISULFIDE, BORATE,


CHLORIDE AND SULFIDE ESTER AS EP TYPE ADDITIVE.

3. IT IS NOT RECOMMENDED TO USE WATER-BASED OR HYDRATED LUBRICANT


FOR ANY MILL COMPONENT.

4. IF THE LUBRICATING OIL IS TO BE REPLACED, IT IS BETTER TO DRAIN OIL


STILL HOT IN GEARBOX AS SOON AS THE MILL IS STOPPED, SO THAT THE
DETERIORATED OIL WITH SUNDRIES MIXED IN IT CAN BE THOROUGHLY
DRAINED AWAY.

5. LUBRICANT IN JOURNAL SHOULD BE REPLACED AFTER MILL HAS BEEN


OPERATING FOR 400 HOURS AND SHOULD BE DRAINED AWAY WHEN IT IS
STILL HOT. WHEN REPLACING OIL IN JOURNAL, IT SHOULD BE FLUSHED
WITH NEW LUBRICANT FIRST, AND THEN FILL LUBRICANT TO THE CORRECT
OIL LEVEL.

6. WHEN CLOSING TO OIL CHANGE CYCLE, IT IS RECOMMENDED TO INVITE AN


INDEPENDENT AND CERTIFICATED LABORATORY TO ASSAY OIL SAMPLE,
AND THE RESULT OF ASSAY WILL TELL HOW LONG THE LUBRICANT CAN
STILL BE USED AND THE GENERAL SITUATION OF BEARINGS AND GEARS.

7. IF PULVERIZER FIRE HAS OCCURRED, BEFORE THE PULVERIZER GOES INTO


OPERATION AGAIN, THE LUBRICANT IN JOURNAL MUST BE REPLACED OR
THE OIL SAMPLE MUST BE ASSAYED BY AN INDEPENDENT AND
CERTIFICATED LABORATORY TO CONFIRM WHETHER THE LUBRICANT HAS
BEEN DETERIORATED.

8. THIS SHOULD BE PROVIDED AND RECORDED BY USER.

9. DO NOT CONFUSE THE LUBRICANT BRAND WITH VISCOSITY GRADE. IF THE


LUBRICANT’S BRAND NAME CHANGED, IT IS SUGGESTED TO DRAIN THE
ORIGINAL OIL AND FLUSH THOROUGHLY TO PREVENT INCOMPATIBILITY.

10. THE LUBRICANT MUST BE CONFIRMED BY MANUFACTURER OF GEARBOX.
