1.0 INTRODUCTION
This operating manual relates to the Unit 76 Propane/Butane Refrigeration facilities
indicated on Process Flow Diagram PR-76-PR32-001, PR-76-PR32-002, PR-76-
PR32-003, PR-76-PR32-004, PR-76-PR32-005 and P&ID’s PR-76-SYPI-
007/007A/007B and PR-76-SYPI-007C.
The Propane/Butane Refrigeration Package, 76-ML01, is to receive boil-off gas
(BOG) generated during ship loading of propane which mixes with BOG from the
New Propane Storage Tank, 76-MF01, in the BOG header. The BOG flows from the
header to the refrigeration package where it is compressed and condensed.
Additionally, warm propane product from RA1K Refinery is fed to the refrigeration
package to collect and condense flash vapor. The liquid propane is returned to the
Propane Storage Tank.
Boil off Gas (BOG) generated during ship loading of butane is returned from the jetty
to the BOG header where it mixes with BOG from the New Butane Storage Tank, 76-
MF02. The header gas flows to BOG handling and Refrigeration Package, 76-ML01
where it is condensed and discharged back to the Butane Storage Tank. The butane
BOG vapors are condensed using propane liquid refrigerant from the BOG
Compressors.

2.0 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION


2.1 Propane/Butane Refrigeration
The Refrigeration System is equipped with two 50% capacity oil injected, rotary screw 1st
Stage Propane Compressors, 76-ML01-MJ01-A/B with a design capacity of 13,005 kg/hr
and two 50% capacity oil injected, rotary screw 2nd Stage Propane Compressors, 76-ML01-
MJ04-A/B with a design capacity of 25,063 kg/hr and necessary associated equipment to
condense Propane Boil Off Gas from Propane Storage Tank, 76-MF01 and tanker loading
vapors from the jetties through the BOG header.
The propane vapors are compressed in 1st Stage Propane Compressors, 76-ML01-MJ01-
A/B, the discharge vapors flow to 1st Stage Lubricant Separator, 76-ML01-MD01 where
lubricant is separated from the propane. Lubricant collects in the lower section of 76-ML01-
MD01 and is pumped by 1st Stage Lubricant Pump, 76-ML01-MJ02-A/B (one in service, the
other a spare) through 1st Stage Compressor Lubricant Filters, 76-ML01-ML01-A/B to
lubricant header for 1st Stage Propane Compressor, 76-ML01–MJ01-A/B (one in service, the
other a spare). Propane vapor flows from the 1st Stage Lubricant Separator to the suction of
2nd Stage Propane Compressors, 76-ML01–MJ04-A/B where the vapor is further
compressed before flowing to 2nd Stage Lubricant Separator, 76-ML01–MD02 where
lubricant is separated from the propane. Lubricant collects in the lower section of the
separator and is pumped by 2nd Stage Lubricant Pump, 76-ML01-MJ03-A/B (one in service,
the other a spare) through 2nd Stage Lubricant Filters, 76-ML01–ML02-A/B (one in service,
the other a spare) to lubricant header for 2nd Stage Propane Compressors, 76-ML01–MJ04-
A/B. Propane vapor flows from the 2nd Stage Lubricant Separator through the Final
Discharge Lubricant Separator, 76-ML01-MD03. Only a small amount of lubricant is
expected to collect in this separator and it will be drained back to 76-ML01–MD02,
periodically, as necessary, using a temporary ½” line from 76-ML01-MD03 drain to ½”
connection on 2nd Stage Lubricant Pump 76-ML01-MJ03-B suction line.
The propane vapor from the Final Lubricant Separator passes through Propane Refrigerant
Condenser, 76-ML01-MC01A/B where it is condensed and the propane liquid collects in
Refrigerant Propane Receiver, 76-ML01-MD04.
The main flow of propane liquid from 76-ML01-MD04 is sent to Propane Flash Tank, 76-
ML01-MD05 under level control 76-LIC-5007 of 76-ML01-MD04. Another flow of propane
liquid is sent from 76-ML01-MD04 to Butane Sub-Cooler, 76-ML01-MC03 shell side where it
cools and condenses warm butane product from the Refinery passing through the tube side.
The cold butane liquid flows from the Butane Sub-Cooler, 76-ML01-MC03 to the Butane
Storage Tank, 76-MF02.
Propane vapor flows from the shell outlet of Butane Sub-Cooler, 76-ML01-MC03 to 2nd
Stage Propane Compressors, 76-ML01-MJ04-A/B.
Recycle gas is sent from the overhead of Refrigerant Propane Receiver, 76-ML01-MD04 to
Propane Flash Tank, 76-ML01-MD05 under control of PIC-5006-A and the vapor from 76-
ML01-MD05 enters the suction line to 2nd Stage Propane Compressors, 76-ML01-MJ04-A/B.
Propane liquid is also sent from 76-ML01-MD04 to 1st Stage Propane Compressors, 76-
ML01-MJ01-A/B and 2nd Stage Compressors, 76-ML01-MJ04-A/B to cool down the
compressor rotors and maintain the desired compressor discharge flow temperature to the
1st and 2nd Stage Lubricant Separators.
The largest Liquid Propane flow from 76-ML01-MD05, flows to the shell side of Propane
Sub-Cooler, 76-ML01-MC02, where it further cools the propane liquid side stream that flows
through the tube side of Sub-cooler, 76-ML01-MC02. This stream flows to the Propane
Storage Tank, 76-MF01 which is controlled by the level controller 76-LIC-1367.

OPERATING MANUAL VOLUME III, SECTION 2-4: REVISION 1
PROPANE/BUTANE REFRIGERATION 24 September 2013

Another propane liquid flow is sent from the Propane Flash Tank, 76-ML01-MD05, through
the shell side of Butane Boil Off Condenser, 76-ML01-MC04, where it condenses Butane
BOG from Butane Storage Tank, 76-MF02, which flows through the tubes of 76-ML01-MC04
into Butane Receiver, 76-ML01-MD06. Butane Pumps, 76-ML01-MJ06-A/B, are used to
pump liquid butane from the Butane Receiver to Butane Storage Tank, 76-MF02. The flow
is controlled by the Butane Receiver level controller, 76-LIC-1366.
Propane vapors are pressure controlled by 76-PIC-5019 from the shell side of 76-ML01-
MC04 to the 1st Stage Propane Compressors, 76-ML01-MJ01-A/B, suction line. Propane
vapors also flow from the shell side of Propane Sub-Cooler to the same line going to the
compressors.
A Lubricant Recovery System is provided as part of the Propane/Butane Refrigeration
System. Lubricant and propane from the bottom of 76-ML01-MC02, 76-ML01-MC03, 76-
ML01-MC04 and 76-ML01-MD05 is periodically drained into the Lubricant Recovery Still, 76-
ML01-MD07, via pneumatically actuated feed valves.
A Lubricant Recovery Heater, 76-ML01-ML05, installed in the Recovery Still is used to
vaporize the refrigerant. An operator has to operate the Lubricant Transfer Pump, 76-ML01-
MJ05, to transfer lubricant from the recovery still to the 1st Stage Compressors, 76-ML01-
MJ01-A/B, suction.

3.0 OPERATIONS
3.1 Normal Running
This section provides a description of the operating parameters for the Propane/Butane
Refrigeration System. Refer to Section 3.2 for a list of typical operating variables for this
system.
3.1.1 First Stage Propane Compressors 76-ML01-MJ01-A / -B
The First Stage Propane Compressor receives propane boil off gas, BOG, from propane
storage tanks 76-MF01 and tanker loading vapor from the jetties through the BOG header.
The propane vapors enter the compressor suction. The suction pressure is monitored via
pressure transmitter, 76-PIT-5102 / 76-PIT-5004, located on the compressor suction line
downstream of suction throttle valve, 76-PV-5102/76-PV-5004. Pressure-indicating
controller, 76-PIC-5102/76-PIC-5004, controls the compressor suction pressure by
modulating the pressure control valve. The main purpose of this valve is to limit high suction
pressure at the compressor flange during startup. Therefore, the set point of this controller
is set slightly higher than the normal operating pressure to prevent modulation of the valve
during normal process swings.
The controller is modulated to control the valve downstream pressure to the desired set
point. 76-PIC-5102 or 76-PIC-5004 closes 76-PV-5102 or 76-PV-5004 when the pressure is
above the set point and opens the 76-PV-5102 or 76-PV-5004 when the pressure is below
the set point. During normal operation after initial pull down, it is expected that this valve will
be fully open and will not come in to operation in the absence of process upsets.
Hot Gas Bypass for 1st Stage Compressor
The suction pressure is also monitored via a pressure transmitter, 76-PIT-5001, located on
the compressor suction header. Pressure indicating controller, 76-PIC-5001-A, controls the
compressor suction pressure by regulating hot gas bypass valve, 76-PV-5001. The main
purpose of this valve is to limit low suction pressure at the compressor flange during no load
conditions. Therefore the set-point of this controller is set slightly lower than the normal
operating pressure to prevent modulation of the valve during normal process swings.
The 76-PV-5001 is throttled to control the valve downstream pressure to the desired set
point. The 76-PIC-5001-A closes the 76-PV-5001 when the pressure is above the set point
and 76-PIC-5001-A opens the 76-PV-5001 when the pressure is below the set point.
Compressor Capacity Control (Load / Unload), 1st Stage Compressor, 76-ML01-MJ01-A/B
Pressure indicating controller, 76-PIC-5001-B, senses suction pressure via a pressure
transmitter, 76-PIT-5001, located on the suction header. Based on the controller’s set point,
an output signal will be converted to digital pulses to open/close the load solenoid valve, 76-
ZY-5001-B/76-ZY-5005-B, or to open/close the unload solenoid, 76-ZY-5001-A/76-ZY-5005-
A. These solenoids control a 4-way hydraulic valve, 76-ZCV-5001/76-ZCV-5005, which will
force hydraulic oil to the compressor slide valve, which increases (loads) or decreases
(unloads) capacity as required. A potentiometer and corresponding position transmitter
monitors the position of the compressor slide valve.
This unit is provided with a means to manually load the compressor either locally, 76-HS-
5012/76-HS-5014, or remotely, 76-HS-5012-A/76-HS-5014-A, using human machine
interface (HMI). This can be done by pressing the manual capacity switch, 76-HS-5011/76-
HS-5013, in HMI. When in the manual mode, the compressor can be loaded by pressing the
manual load/unload switch. A local loading indicating display is also provided to monitor the
slide valve position.

PROPANE/BUTANE REFRIGERATION 24 September 2013

Compressor Motor High Current Protection


In the event that the motor experiences high amperage, a command from the control system
will override the load/unload system to either stop loading or force unload the compressor.
After an initial start, the control system will inhibit the compressor from loading for 60
seconds. After a normal stop, the control system will force unload the compressor to the
minimum slide valve position.
3.1.2 Seal Vent and Drain Pots 76-ML01-MD08-A/B
Seal Drain Pots are provided for 1st Stage Propane Compressors, 76-ML01-MJ01-A/B.
Drops of lubricant with some traces of propane may leak through the compressor seal.
Lubricant will accumulate in the seal drain pot and traces of propane will vent to the safe
location. During normal operation, an automatic vent valve 76-XV-5103/5006 located on the
seal pot outlet will be closed. The pressure differential transmitter 76-PDIT-5005/5010
located on the orifice next to the valve will open the valve when differential pressure is at or
higher than 350 mbar and close at or below 300 mbar. This will allow only propane vapors
to vent. The pressure differential transmitter will alarm at 400 mbar.
Seal drain pot, 76-ML01-MD08-A/B, is provided with a level transmitter 76-LIT-5001 and a
local level gauge. Lubricant needs to be drained periodically on high level alarm.
3.1.3 Lubrication Separator 76-ML01-MD01
Lubricant from the First Stage Propane Compressor is discharged with the propane vapor
into the Lubricant Separator, where it is effectively separated from the vapor. Almost all
lubricant that escapes the coalescing element(s) collects on the coalescing deck plate. A
line from the coalescing deck to the compressor suction line is provided for returning this
lubricant to the system. A needle valve on this line should be kept open a few turns to allow
a constant flow back to the compressor. A flow indicator, 76-SC-5001, in this line and a sight
glass, 76-SG-5002, on the coalescing deck are provided to monitor lubricant return and
accumulation. If there is any level shown on the coalescing deck, the needle valve needs to
be opened further.
The Lubricant Separator Heater, 76-ML01-ML03, installed in the lubricant separator is used
to maintain proper lubricant temperature. A temperature transmitter, 76-TIT-5105, on the
Lubricant Separator monitors this temperature and provides a process variable for the heater
control switch, 76-TIC-5105. A decreasing temperature will turn the heater on. An
increasing temperature will turn the heater off at set point plus dead band. During normal
operation, the heater should be off due to sufficient heat being supplied by the heat of
compression.
A low level alarm, 76-LAL-5003, on the Lubricant Separator is provided to indicate when
additional lubricant may be required. The heater power circuit is opened if low lubricant level
is sensed by 76-LAL-5003. Lubricant level in the separator can be monitored via the locally
mounted sight glass, 76-LG-5003. Note that during startup the low level alarm may activate,
as lubricant that is being pumped from the lubricant separator may not have had time to
return and thus establish level equilibrium. Do not add lubricant until it has been confirmed
that the system is stable.
Cooling by Liquid Refrigerant Injection – LRI
The compressor is provided with a liquid injection system to cool down the compressor
rotors and maintain the desired compressor discharge temperature. Cold liquid refrigerant is
sprayed onto the rotors through the LRI port to cool down the rotors and thus maintaining the
discharge temperature.

SKIKDA, ALGERIA PP-AAA-PP1-136
OPERATING MANUAL VOLUME III, SECTION 2-4: REVISION 1
PROPANE/BUTANE REFRIGERATION 24 September 2013

A temperature indicating controller, 76-TIC-5002/76-TIC-5104, senses the discharge gas


temperature via a temperature transmitter, 76-TIT-5002/76-TIT-5104, located on the
compressor discharge line to the oil separator. Based on the controller’s set point, an output
signal is sent to the temperature control valve, 76-TV-5002/76-TV-5104. This valve
maintains the required compressor discharge temperature.
3.1.4 Lubricant Pumps, 76-ML01-MJ02-A/B
The lubrication system is supplied with two 100 percent capacity Lubricant Pumps which
pump lubricant from 1st Stage Lubricant Separator 76-ML01-MD01 through 1st Stage
Compressor Lubricant Filters 76-ML01-ML01-A/B and the lubricant header to 1st Stage
Propane Compressors 76-ML01-MJ01-A/B.
Auto Operation: Placing a lubricant pump switch in the auto position prior to initiating a
compressor start will allow the system to perform all intended auto functions. In auto, a
compressor start will first initiate a lubricant pump start and allow the unit to start
automatically. Auto mode will also allow the pump fail over to function properly.
Post Lube: When the compressor experiences a normal stop, the system will perform a post
lube. If the compressor is not unloaded, the pump will continue to run until the compressor
is unloaded or until 20 seconds has expired, whichever comes first.
Auto Fail Over: One of the lubricant pumps must be set to be the primary (“lead”) pump and
the other to be secondary (“lag”) pump. The pumps can be designated as such by pressing
the lead/lag switch, 76-HS-5020, on the HMI to the desired position. In the event that the
low differential pressure is sensed by the low differential pressure alarm, 76-PDAL-5101/76-
PDAL-5106, the pump set in the lag position will automatically start. After a 5 second delay,
the pump set in the lead position will shut down and the HMI will annunciate an alarm. Both
pumps must be in auto operation for this to occur.
After an auto fail over has occurred, the system reset switch must be pressed to clear the
alarm. This will cause an auto fail over back to the original lead pump. If it is desired to
switch the lead/lag of the pumps after an initial auto fail over, then the lead/lag switch must
be repositioned within 5 seconds after pressing the reset switch.
The pumps can be switched between lead/lag at any time, which will cause an auto fail over
to occur.
Each lubricant pump has a pressure differential control valve, 76-PDCV-5001/2, which is set
to maintain proper differential. Any excess lubricant flows through the pressure differential
control valve and returns to the lubricant separator.
Each lubricant pump is provided with an internal relief valve, local mounted discharge
pressure gauge and a suction strainer.
3.1.5 Lubricant Filters, 76-ML01-ML01-A/B
st
The 1 Stage Lubricant Filters are provided with a set of block valves to allow the filters to be
changed easily and efficiently. The filters are provided with an equalizer valve that must be
opened prior to switching filters and then closed prior to servicing the offline filter. The
lubricant filter elements must be changed when the pressure differential across the filters
exceeds 850 mbar as indicated by the differential pressure alarm, 76-PDAH-5023.
3.1.6 2nd Stage Propane Compressor 76-ML01-MJ04-A/-B
Propane vapors flow from the 1st Stage Oil Separator 76-ML01-MD01 to the 2nd Stage
Compressor Suction.

OPERATING MANUAL VOLUME III, SECTION 2-4: REVISION 1
PROPANE/BUTANE REFRIGERATION 24 September 2013

The suction pressure is monitored via a pressure transmitter, 76-PIT-5103/76-PIT-5009,


located on the compressor suction line downstream of suction throttle valve, 76-PV-5103/76-
PV-5009. Pressure-indicating controller, 76-PIC-5103/76-PIC-5009, controls the
compressor suction pressure by throttling the pressure control valve. The main purpose of
this valve is to limit high suction pressure at the compressor flange during startup. Therefore
the set point of this controller is set slightly higher than the normal operating pressure to
prevent modulation of the valve during normal process swings.
The controller is throttled to control the valve downstream pressure to the desired set point.
76-PIC-5103 or 76-PIC-5009 closes 76-PV-5103 or 76-PV-5009 when the pressure is above
the set point and opens the 76-PV-5103 or 76-PV-5009 when the pressure is below the set
point. During normal operation after initial pull down, it is expected that this valve will be fully
open and will not come in to operation in the absence of process upsets.
This refrigeration unit is provided with a hot gas bypass system for both stages of
compression.
Hot Gas Bypass for 2nd Stage Compressor
The suction pressure is monitored via a pressure transmitter 76-PIT-5006 located on the
compressor suction header. A reverse acting pressure indicating controller 76-PIC-5006-A
controls the compressor suction pressure by regulating hot gas bypass valve 76-PV-5006.
The main purpose of this valve is to limit low suction pressure at the compressor flange
during no load conditions. Therefore, the set point of this controller is set slightly lower than
the normal operating pressure to prevent modulation of the valve during normal process
swings.
The 76-PV-5006 is throttled to control the valve downstream pressure to the desired set
point. The 76-PIC-5006-A closes the 76-PV-5006 when the pressure is above the set point.
The 76-PIC-5006-A opens the 76-PV-5006 when the pressure is below the set point.
Compressor Capacity Control (Load / Unload), 2nd Stage Compressor, 76-ML01-MJ04-A/B
Pressure indicating controller, 76-PIC-5006-B, senses suction pressure via a pressure
transmitter, 76-PIT-5006, located on the suction header. Based on the controller’s set point,
an output signal will be converted to digital pulses to open/close the load solenoid valve, 76-
ZY-5003-B/76-ZY-5004-B, or to open/close the unload solenoid, 76-ZY-5003-A/76-ZY-5004-
A. These solenoids control a 4-way hydraulic valve, 76-ZCV-5003/76-ZCV-5004, which will
force hydraulic oil to the compressor slide valve, which increases (loads) or decreases
(unloads) capacity as required. A potentiometer and corresponding position transmitter
monitors the position of the compressor slide valve.
This unit is provided with a means to manually load the compressor either locally, 76-HS-
5016/76-HS-5018, or remotely, 76-HS-5016A/76-HS-5018A, using HMI. This can be done
by pressing the manual capacity switch, 76-HS-5015/76-HS-5017, in HMI. When in the
manual mode, the compressor can be loaded by pressing the manual load/unload switch. A
local loading indicating display is also provided to monitor the slide valve position.
Compressor Motor High Current Protection
In the event that the motor experiences high amperage, a command from the control system
will override the load/unload system to either stop loading or force unload the compressor.
After an initial start, the control system will inhibit the compressor from loading for 60
seconds. After a normal stop, the control system will force unload the compressor to the
minimum slide valve position.

3.1.7 Seal Vent and Drain Pots 76-ML01-MD09-A/B


Seal Drain Pots are provided for 2nd Stage Compressors, 76-ML01-MJ04-A/B. Drops of
lubricant with some traces of propane may leak through the compressor seal. Lubricant will
accumulate in the seal drain pot and traces of propane will vent to the safe location. During
normal operation, an automatic vent valve 76-XV-5010/5114 located on the seal pot outlet
will be closed. The pressure differential transmitter 76-PDIT-5015/5024 located on the
orifice next to the valve will open the valve when differential pressure is at or higher than 350
mbar and close at or below 300 mbar. This will allow only propane vapors to vent. The
pressure differential transmitter will alarm at 400 mbar.
Seal drain pot, 76-ML01-MD09-A/B, is provided with a level transmitter 76-LIT-5004/5005
and a local level gauge. Lubricant needs to be drained periodically on high level alarm.
3.1.8 Lubricant Separator, 76-ML01-MD02
Lubricant from the 2nd Stage Propane Compressor is discharged with the propane vapor into
the Lubricant Separator, where it is effectively separated from the vapor. Almost all lubricant
that escapes the coalescing element(s) collects on the coalescing deck plate. A line from
the coalescing deck to the compressor suction line is provided for returning this lubricant to
the system. A needle valve on this line should be kept open a few turns to allow a constant
flow back to the compressor. A flow indicator, 76-SG-5003, in this line and a sight glass, 76-
SG-5004, on the coalescing deck are provided to monitor lubricant return and accumulation.
If there is any level shown on the coalescing deck, the needle valve needs to be opened
further.
The Lubricant Separator Heater, 76-ML01-ML04, installed in the Lubricant Separator is used
to maintain proper lubricant temperature. A temperature transmitter, 76-TIT-5011, on the
lubricant separator monitors this temperature and provides a process variable for the heater
control switch, 76-TIC-5011. A decreasing temperature will turn the heater on. An
increasing temperature will turn the heater off at set point plus dead band. During normal
operation, the heater should be off due to sufficient heat being supplied by the heat of
compression.
A low level alarm, 76-LAL-5006, on the lubricant separator is provided to indicate when
additional lubricant may be required. The heater power circuit is opened if low lubricant level
is sensed by 76-LAL-5006. Lubricant level in the separator can be monitored via the locally
mounted sight glass, 76-LG-5006. Note that during startup the low level alarm may activate,
as lubricant that is being pumped from the lubricant separator may not have had time to
return and thus establish level equilibrium. Do not add lubricant until it has been confirmed
that the system is stable.
Cooling by Liquid Refrigerant Injection (LRI)
The compressor is provided with a liquid injection system to cool down the compressor
rotors and maintain the desired compressor discharge temperature. Cold liquid refrigerant is
sprayed onto the rotors through the LRI port to cool down the rotors and thus maintaining the
discharge temperature.
A temperature indicating controller, 76-TIC-5108/76-TIC-5010, senses the discharge gas
temperature via a temperature transmitter, 76-TIT-5108/76-TIT-5010, located on the
compressor discharge line to the oil separator. Based on the controller’s set point, an output
signal is sent to the temperature control valve, 76-TV-5108/76-TV-5010. This valve
maintains the required compressor discharge temperature.

PROPANE/BUTANE REFRIGERATION 24 September 2013

3.1.9 2nd Stage Compressor Lubricant Pumps, 76-ML01-MJ03-A/B


The lubrication system is supplied with two 100 percent capacity lubricant pumps which
pump lubricant from 2nd Stage Lubricant Separator 76-ML01-MD02 through 2nd Stage
Compressor Lubricant Filters 76-ML01-ML02-A/B and the lubricant header to 2nd Stage
Propane Compressor 76-ML01-MJ04-A/B.
Auto Operation: Placing a lubricant pump switch in the auto position prior to initiating a
compressor start will allow the system to perform all intended auto functions. In auto, a
compressor start will first initiate a lubricant pump start and allow the unit to start
automatically. Auto mode will also allow the pump fail over to function properly.
Post-Lube: When the compressor experiences a normal stop, the system will perform a post
lube. If the compressor is not unloaded, the pump will continue to run until the compressor
is unloaded or until 20 seconds has expired, whichever comes first.
Auto Fail Over: One of the lubricant pumps must be set to be the primary (“lead”) pump and
the other to be secondary (“lag”) pump. The pumps can be designated as such by pressing
the lead/lag switch, 76-HS-5019, on the HMI to the desired position. In the event that the
low differential pressure is sensed by the low differential pressure alarm, the pump set in the
lag position will automatically start. After a 5 second delay, the pump set in the lead position
will shut down and the HMI will initiate an alarm. Both pumps must be in auto operation for
this to occur.
After an auto fail over has occurred, the system reset switch must be pressed to clear the
alarm. This will cause an auto fail over back to the original lead pump. If it is desired to
switch the lead/lag of the pumps after an initial auto fail over, then the lead/lag switch must
be repositioned within 5 seconds after pressing the reset switch.
The pumps can be switched between lead/lag at any time, which will cause an auto fail over
to occur.
Each Lubricant Pump has a pressure differential control valve, 76-PDCV-5003/4, which is
set to maintain proper differential. Any excess lubricant flows through the pressure
differential control valve and returns to the Lubricant Separator.
Each Lubricant Pump is provided with an internal relief valve, local mounted discharge
pressure gauge and a suction strainer.
3.1.10 Lubricant Filters, 76-ML01-ML02-A/B
The 2nd Stage Lubricant Filters are provided with a set of block valves to allow the filters to
be changed easily and efficiently. The filters are provided with an equalizer valve that must
be opened prior to switching filters and then closed prior to servicing the offline filter. The
Lubricant Filter elements must be changed when the pressure differential across the filters
exceeds 850 mbar as indicated by the differential pressure alarm, 76-PDAH-5022.
2nd Stage Compressor Inlet End Bearing Lubrication Pressure Control, 76-PIC-5020/5021
The balance pistons are sized for full load thrust forces which are shed at part load. The
lubrication pressure for Inlet End Bearing must be reduced at reduced loads. A Pressure
Controller and Pressure Control Valve, 76-PV-5020/5021, and pressure transmitters, 76-PIT-
5171/5172 and 76-PIT-5020/5021, at inlet and outlet of this valve are provided to monitor
and control the pressure.
3.1.11 Final Discharge Lubricant Separator, 76-ML01-MD03
Propane vapor with a small amount of lubricant is discharged from 2nd Stage Lubricant
Separator, 76-ML01-MD02, to final Discharge Lubricant Separator, 76-ML01-MD03. Flow

glass indicators, 76-SG-5006 and 76-SG-5007, and a sight glass, 76-SG-5005, are provided
to monitor lubricant accumulation and lubricant drained from the separator to 76-ML01-
MD02.
3.1.12 Propane Refrigerant Condensers, 76-ML01-MC01
Propane vapor from 76-ML01-MD03 is cooled and condensed in the Propane Refrigerant
Condensers and the liquid propane refrigerant flows to Refrigerant Propane Receiver, 76-
ML01-MD04.
The Propane Refrigerant Condenser is furnished with four fans. The fan motor can be
started manually from local control panel located on 2nd Stage Compressor Skid or remotely
using HMI on Unit Control Panel (UCP) by selecting “Hand” mode. In “Hand” mode the
appropriate condenser fan will continue to run until the hand switch is placed in the auto
position or a fan shutdown condition occurs due to high vibration or stop switch is pressed.
The reset pushbutton must be activated to reset the alarm. Each condenser fan is provided
with a vibration switch. Those switches will shutdown that particular fan in the event of
excessive vibration.
The condenser pressure control is provided to maintain compressor discharge pressure.
The condensing pressure control loop consists of a pressure transmitter, 76-PIT-5030,
located on the refrigerant receiver. This pressure transmitter senses refrigerant receiver
pressure and provides a signal to a pressure indicating controller, 76-PIC-5030A. This
signal controls the function of the fans.
3.1.13 Propane Receiver, 76-ML01-MD04
The level of liquid propane is monitored in the receiver by level transmitter, 76-LIT-5007.
The receiver is provided with a pressure transmitter, 76-PIT-5030, to monitor the refrigerant
pressure and a temperature transmitter, 76-TIT-5030, to monitor the refrigerant in the
receiver.
Pressure Transmitter, 76-PIT-5030, provides input to 76-PIC-5030-A, described above and
to 76-PIC-5030-B which controls the receiver pressure by throttling purge valve, 76-PV-
5030. The main purpose of this valve is to vent non-condensables to the relief header.
Therefore, the set-point of this controller is set slightly higher than normal operating pressure
to prevent modulation of the valve during normal process service.
The 76-PV-5030 is adjusted to control the valve upstream pressure to the desired set point.
The 76-PIC-5030-B closes the 76-PV-5030 when the pressure is below the set point. The
76-PIC-5030-B opens the 76-PV-5030 when the pressure is above the set point.
3.1.14 Propane Flash Tank, 76-ML01-MD05
Level indicating controller, 76-LIC-5007, senses the propane liquid level via level transmitter,
76-LIT-5007 in 76-ML01-MD04 and sends an output signal to the level valve, 76-LV-5007
which maintains a liquid level in the propane receiver by adjusting the flow of liquid propane
from 76-ML01-MD04 to propane flash tank 76-ML01-MD05.
Level indicating controller, 76-LIC-1367, senses a liquid level via level transmitter, 76-LIT-
1367, located on the Propane Flash Tank, 76-ML01-MD05 and sends output signal to the
level valve, 76-LV-1367 which maintains a liquid level in the Propane Flash Tank.
This vessel is also provided with high and low liquid level alarms. At high liquid level, 76-
LAH-1367, PLC will de-energize 76-UY-5001 to close 76-UV-5001 so that no more propane
can enter from the refinery.

Condensate Receiver by controlling the Butane liquid flow from Butane Receiver Pumps 76-
ML01-MJ06-A/B through 76-LV-1366 to Butane Storage Tank, 76-MF02.
This vessel is provided with high and low liquid level alarms. At high liquid level, 76-LAH-
1366, PLC will de-energize 76-LY-5023-A to close 76-LV-5023 so that no more propane can
enter the Butane Boil-Off Condenser. At low liquid level, 76-LAL-1366 PLC turns the butane
pumps, 76-ML01-MJ06-A/B, off. A temperature transmitter, 76-TIT-5045, is also provided to
monitor the butane temperature. At low temperature alarm, 76-TAL-5045 will de-energize
76-LY-5023-A to close 76-LV-5023 and stop pumps 76-ML01-MJ06-A/B.
3.1.19 Butane Receiver Pumps, 76-ML01-MJ06-A/B

Each butane pump is provided with a temperature transmitter to monitor the bearing
temperature. A high bearing temperature will alarm and trip the pump.
3.1.20 Lubricant Recovery Still, 76-ML01-MD07
Lubricant and propane from the bottom of 76-ML01-MC02, 76-ML01-MC03, 76-ML01-MC04
and 76-ML01-MD05 is periodically drained into the Lubricant Recovery Still, 76-ML01-MD07,
via pneumatically actuated feed valves, 76-XV-5020, 76-XV-5021, 76-XV-5022, and 76-XV-
5023, as controlled by solenoid valves mounted on each valve. The control is via a step
sequencer which will open whenever the Lubricant Recovery Heater, 76-ML01-ML05, is
turned off unless the valve is disabled due to a high level in the recovery pot or if the
lubricant transfer valve is opened. The Lubricant Heater will turn on when the lubricant
temperature decreases due to cold lubricant and propane flow into the recovery still, thus
closing the feed valve. The heater will turn off when it reaches the set point (15°C).
Once the high liquid level, 76-LIT-5025, and heater temperature set point (15°C) are both
made at the same time, the following will happen:
• Feed valves which drain lubricant will close
• Pressure equalizing valve, 76-XV-5024, will close
• A High Liquid Level Alarm, 76-LAH-5025, will come on.
• An operator has to operate the Lubricant Recovery/Charging Pump, 76-ML01-MJ05,
using locally mounted hand switch, 76-HS-5028, and transfer lubricant from Recovery
Still to 1st Stage Propane Compressor, 76-ML01-MJ01-A/B, suction.
The Lubricant Recovery Heater, 76-ML01-ML05, installed in the recovery still is used to
vaporize the refrigerant. A temperature transmitter, 76-TIT-5106, on the recovery still
monitors this temperature and provides a process variable for the Heater Control Switch, 76-
TIC-5106. A decreasing temperature will turn the heater on.
The Recovery Still is also provided with a local Liquid Level Gauge, 76-LG-5014.

3.3.1 1st Stage Lubricant Separator Heater
The Lubricant Separator Heater, 76-ML01-ML03, installed in the Lubricant Separator is used
to maintain proper lubricant temperature. A temperature transmitter, 76-TIT-5105, on the
lubricant separator monitors this temperature and provides a process variable for the heater
control switch, 76-TIC-5105. A decreasing temperature will turn the heater on. An
increasing temperature will turn the heater off at set point plus dead band. During normal
operation, the heater should be off due to sufficient heat being supplied by the heat of
compression.
3.3.2 2nd Stage Lubricant Separator Heater
The Lubricant Separator Heater, 76-ML01-ML04, installed in the Lubricant Separator is used
to maintain proper lubricant temperature. A temperature transmitter, 76-TIT-5011, on the
Lubricant Separator monitors this temperature and provides a process variable for the heater
control switch, 76-TIC-5011. A decreasing temperature will turn the heater on. An
increasing temperature will turn the heater off at set point plus dead band. During normal
operation, the heater should be off due to sufficient heat being supplied by the heat of
compression.
3.3.3 1st Stage Lubricant Filters, 76-ML01-ML01-A/B
The Lubricant Filters are provided with a set of block valves to allow them to be changed
easily and efficiently. The filters are provided with an equalize valve that must be opened
prior to switching filters and then closed prior to servicing the offline filter. The lubricant filter
elements must be changed when the pressure differential across the filters exceeds 850
mbar as indicated by the differential pressure alarm, 76-PDAH-5023.

4.0 START-UP
This section outlines the steps necessary to place the Propane/Butane Refrigeration System
in service. For the purpose of this section of the operating manual, it is assumed that the
following conditions exist: The system and equipment have been pre-commissioned, tested,
commissioning has been completed, including dryout and cool down and system is purged
and ready for start-up.
4.1 Initial Start-up
1. Establish liquid inventory in Propane and Butane Storage Tanks prior to starting
Propane Compressors.
2. Ensure proper lock out of all block valves into and out of relief valves and other areas
as indicated on the P&ID.
3. Verify that all motor control switches are in the “OFF” position. This includes local
and HMI switches. Verify that the motor starters and lube oil heaters are in the run
position at the MCC.
4. Verify that remote ESD switches are not activated by checking the HMI alarm panel.
5. Check that the oil in the oil separator is at the proper level as indicated on the P&ID.
6. Check that all manual isolation valves are in the normal operating position.
7. Check lamp bulbs periodically. No lamp test switch is provided on the panel.
8. Turn on all circuit breakers feeding power to the panel.
9. Turn on power to the lubricant separator and lubricant recovery heaters. Verify that
the heaters are functioning.
10. Allow sufficient time for the lubricant to heat up.
11. Check that all the functions on operator interface (HMI) are working. This includes
checking all PID control set points are in accordance with the P&ID and confirming
HMI screen switching and functionality.
12. Push the “RESET” button to clear all alarm and shut down conditions. If the
conditions do not clear, the problem must be corrected prior to proceeding.
13. Insure that all lubrication valves to the compressor and hydraulic slide valve are open
and then start a lubricant pump motor to circulate the lubricant by placing it in
“Manual” at the HMI. Do not leave the area while the pump is in manual mode and
continually monitor the lubricant level in the separators. Circulate the lubricant to
provide hydraulic power to the slide valve and to set the pressure differential valves
on the pump discharges. The lubricating oil pressure differential control valve should
be set to give adequate oil manifold differential pressure with clean oil filter elements
fitted. After the PDCV is set for one pump, turn that pump off and do the same for
the second pump. Place both pumps in “Auto” on the HMI after this step.
14. Verify that the machine is fully unloaded in HMI.
15. Verify the operation of the condenser fans in manual mode.
16. Switch the capacity controller to “Manual” for manual loading of the compressor on
initial start-up. NOTE: The compressor must be unloaded prior to start-up. If the
compressor is started without first being unloaded, a higher starting torque will be
required and possible motor damage could result. A position interlock is provided to
prevent this.

OPERATING MANUAL VOLUME III, SECTION 2-4: REVISION 1
PROPANE/BUTANE REFRIGERATION 24 September 2013

17. Place lubricant pumps and condenser fans in “Auto” position.


18. Push the compressor start switch. Start 2nd Stage Compressor first. 1st Stage
Compressor cannot be started if 2nd Stage Compressor is not already running. (After
2nd Stage Compressor start up, 1st Stage Compressor can be started using these
startup procedures that are applicable.)
19. The lead lubricant pump will immediately start and shutdown valves will open.
Providing all conditions are satisfied according to the system logic, the compressor
will automatically start as outlined in the start sequence described below. To stop the
compressor, push the compressor stop switch.
20. As the unit begins to run, monitor that the fans started and controls are released for
operation. Monitor and adjust levels and pressures as necessary. If may be
necessary to put some controls in “manual” until conditions stabilize.
21. Run the compressor for a minimum of 5 minutes with slide valve at minimum position
and check that all readings are normal. Please refer to instrument data sheets for
normal operating set points.
22. Using the manual loader, slowly and gradually begin to manually load the
compressor, pulling the suction pressure down to design. The actual compressor
capacity position will be indicated on the HMI and on the dial mounted on the
hydraulic cylinder of the compressor.
23. When design suction pressure is achieved, switch the capacity control to “Automatic”
and the suction pressure controller will then take over.
24. As refrigerant begins to circulate, monitor all levels until they are stabilized at the
required normal liquid level. Normal operating levels are shown on the system
P&IDs.
25. Closely monitor all functions of the unit until the unit is running in a reasonably stable
manner. Take frequent readings on the maintenance / operator logs in the first few
hours of operation. Note all process pressures, temperatures and liquid levels from
local gauges.
4.2 Plant Starting Sequence
Following is a list of start sequence with time delays and other functions after compressor
start command is initiated:
1. The lead lubricant pump will immediately start.
2. The shutdown valves will open immediately.
3. Compressor will start as soon as following conditions are satisfied:
A) Lubricant pressure is at or above the alarm set point.
B) Compressor is fully unloaded.
C) Lubricant temperature in the oil separator is at or above the set point.
D) No anti-cycle lockout.
E) All shutdown valves are full open.
4. Release PID loops.
5. The start sequence of the condenser fans is as follows:
A) 76-ML01-MC01-MJ01-A will start running 10 seconds after compressor start

5.0 SHUTDOWN
5.1 Normal Shutdown
The Propane/Butane Refrigeration Package, 76-ML01, will normally remain in service during
a shut down, however; if the system must be shut down, follow the steps below:
1. Stop the drive motor for 1st Stage Propane Compressors, 76-ML01-MJ02-A-M/-B-M,
by pushing the compressor stop switch, 76-HS-5030-B/5035-B. This will shutdown
the compressor, bring the slide valve to its minimum position. After compressor is at
minimum capacity or 20 seconds have passed, the lube oil pumps will stop. All these
functions will happen automatically.
2. Stop the drive motor for 2nd Stage Propane Compressors, 76-ML01-MJ04-A-M/-B-M,
units by pushing the stop switch 76-HS-5042-B/5045-B. This will shutdown the
compressor, bring the slide valve to its minimum position. After compressor is at
minimum capacity or 20 seconds have passed, the lube oil pumps will stop. All these
functions will happen automatically.
3. Ensure that the following valves close when 1st Stage Propane/Butane Compressor,
76-ML01-MJ01-A shuts down:
• 76-PV-5102 in the Propane Vapor Inlet line to 76-ML01-MJ01-A
• 76-TV-5002 in the Propane Inlet line from 76-ML01-MD04 to 76-ML01-MJ01-A.
• 76-XV-5016 in the Propane inlet line from 76-ML01-MD04 to 76-ML01-MJ01-A.
• 76-XV-5013 in the lubricant line from 1st Stage Lubricant Pumps 76-ML01-MJ02-
A/B to 76-ML01-MJ01-A
• 76-XV-5103 in vent line from 1st Stage Compressor Seal Drain Pot, 76-ML01-
MJ08-A to safe location.
• 76-XV-5005 in the lubricant line from 76-ML01-MD01 to Compressor Propane
vapor inlet line.
This is an example of the valves that close for each compressor when the
compressor is shut down.
4. Verify that the inlet and outlet control valves for each vessel in the compressor
system are closed when the compressors are shutdown.
5.1.1 Shutdown Precautions
Each compressor operates on a lubricant and process media mixture and short periods of
shut down will not adversely affect the compressor.
If the compressor is shut down for an extended period, the lubricant pump should be
operated for approximately 15 seconds weekly, to distribute lubricant throughout the system.
If the lubricant header is provided with an isolation valve, it must be forced open to allow
lubricant to flow to the compressor.
If the shut down period is three months or more, the above procedure can be repeated at
weekly intervals but the compressor system should also be run for one hour every three
months. In addition, the normal lubricant can be drained off and replaced with inhibiting oil,
with the lubricant pump being operated for one hour. If the compressor has been run on
inhibiting oil, this should be repeated at three month intervals during the shutdown period.
It is necessary to rotate each compressor by hand once per week to prevent brinelling of the
anti-friction bearings.

PROPANE/BUTANE REFRIGERATION 24 September 2013

5.2 Process Upsets and Production Loss


In the event of an emergency requiring a shutdown of the Propane/Butane Refrigeration
System, the system should be shut down as outlined above in normal shutdown. In the
event of causes and actions listed below only process upsets or production loss may occur
and not necessarily require the Propane/Butane Refrigeration System to be shutdown.
1. Loss of Electrical Power
Loss of electrical power to either one of the 1st Stage Propane Compressors, 76-ML01-
MJ01-A/-B or 2nd Stage Propane Compressors, 76-ML02-MJ04-A/-B will cause the
compressors to shut down.
Loss of electrical power to either one of the 1st Stage Lubricant Pumps, 76-ML01-MJ02-
A/B, will cause the pump to stop if it is running and will not be able to start if it is down
until power is restored. Oil flow to the 1st Stage Compressors will stop and the
compressors will shutdown. Additionally, loss of electrical power to the Lubricant
Separator Heater, 76-ML01-ML03 will stop heat input to the lubricant if required.
Loss of electrical power to either one of the 2nd Stage Lubricant Pumps, 76-ML01-
MJ03-A/B will cause the pump to stop if it is running and will not be able to start if it is
down until power is restored. Oil flow to the 2nd Stage Compressors will stop and the
compressor will shut down. Additionally, loss of electrical power to the Lubricant
Separator Heater, 76-ML01-ML04 will stop heat input to the lubricant if required.
Loss of electrical power to any one of the Propane Condenser Fan Motors, 76-ML01-
MC01-A/B/C/D, will result in the fan stopping, thus reducing cooling and condensing of
Propane Vapors from Final Discharge Lubricant Separator, 76-ML01-MD03. This may
also result in the shut down of the Propane/Butane Propane Refrigeration if allowed to
go uncorrected for any length of time.
Loss of electrical power to either one of the Butane Receiver Pumps, 76-ML01-MJ06-
A/B, will cause the pump to stop if it is running and will not be able to start if it is down
until power is restored. Butane liquid can not be transferred from Butane Condensate
Receiver, 76-ML01-MD06 to Butane Storage Tank, 76-MF02. This will result in Butane
BOG flow stopping from the Butane BOG Header to Butane BOG Condenser, 76-
ML01-MC04, and routed to the LP Flare until electrical power is restored to 76-ML01-
MJ06-A/B, where the Butane liquid can be pumped from the Butane Condensate
Receiver, 76-ML01-MD06 to the Butane Storage Tank.
Loss of electrical power to the Lubricant Recovery/Charging Pump Motor, 76-ML01-
MJ05-M will cause the pump to stop if it is running and will not be able to start if it is
shut down until power is restored. No lubricant can be returned to 1st Stage Propane
Compressors, 76-ML01-MJ01-A/B, until electrical power is restored.
Loss of power to the Lubricant Recovery Heater, 76-ML01-ML05, used to heat and
vaporize small components of Lubricant/Propane drained from 76-ML01-MD05, 76-
ML01-MC04, 76-ML01-MC02 and 76-ML01-MC03 will not vaporize propane until
electrical power is restored.

2. Loss of Instrument Air


Loss of Instrument Air to any one control valve will result in that valve going to its
designated fail safe position. As indicated on each P&ID, FO Valves go to a “fail open”
position and FC valves go to a “fail closed” position.

SKIKDA, ALGERIA PP-AAA-PP1-136
OPERATING MANUAL VOLUME III, SECTION 2-4: REVISION 1
PROPANE/BUTANE REFRIGERATION 24 September 2013

There are no fail open valves are included in this system.

The following valves will fail closed: 76-PV-5102, 76-TV-5002, 76-XV-5016, 76-XV-
5101, 76-PV-5103, 76-XV-5013, 76-PV-5004, 76-TV-5104, 76-XV-5017, 76-XV-5005,
76-XV-5006, 76-XV-5014, 76-TV-5108, 76-XV-5018, 76-XV-5119, 76-XV-5008, 76-XV-
5010, 76-XV-5025, 76-PV-5009, 76-TV-5010, 76-UV-5019, 76-XV-5112, 76-XV-5103,
76-XV-5114, 76-XV-5015, 76-LV-5007, 76-PV-5030, 76-LV-5011, 76-PV-5006, 76-UV-
5001, 76-PV-5001, 76-LV-5019, 76-PV-5019, 76-LV-5023, 6-FV-1368, 76-LV-1367,
76-PV-5020, 76-PV-5021, 76-XV-5020, 76-XV-5021, 76-XV-5022, 76-XV-5023, 76-XV
-5024, 76-FV-1341, 76-ESDV-1375, 76-ESDV-1374, 76-ESDV-1377, 76-ESDV-1378,
76-PV-1403, 76-LV-1366, 76-ESDV-1380, 76-ESDV-1381, 76-XV-1338 and 76-HV-
1343.
3. Loss of Propane Refrigeration Compressor 76-ML01-MJ04-A/-B
Loss of Propane Refrigeration Compressor will lead to high pressure in the Propane
Storage Tank and the Butane Storage Tank. This will further lead to opening of 76-PV-
1445B on Propane Storage Tank to open to LP Flare. And also opening of 76-PV-
1145B on Butane Storage Tank to open to LP Flare.
When the pressure on the Propane Storage Tank continues to rise further Interlock I-
7630 will be activated on HH pressure (76-PT-1444), closing:
• 76-ESDV 1256 and 76-ESDV 1427 (Propane from the New Train).
• 76-ESDV 1491 and 76-ESDV 1492 (Propane from LPG unit).
• 76-ESDV 1481 and 76-ESDV 1482 (Propane from units 5P/6P).
When the pressure on the Butane Storage Tank continues to rise further, Interlock I-
7650 will be activated on HH pressure (76-PT-1144), closing:
• 76-ESDV 1255 and 76-ESDV 1127 (Butane from the New Train).
• 76-ESDV 1351 and 76-ESDV 1352 (Butane from LPG unit).
• 76-ESDV 1361 and 76-ESDV 1362 (Butane from units 5P/6P).
If the pressure on the Propane Storage Tank continues to rise further than 76-PRV-
1400A and 76-PRV-1400B on the tank will relive excess pressure to the atmosphere. If
the presskure on the Butane Storage Tank continues to rise further, then 76-PRV-
1129A and 76-PRV-1129B on the tank will relieve excess pressure to the atmosphere.
4. Loss of propane vapor to Refrigeration Package 76-ML01
Loss of propane vapor flow from both Propane Storage Tank 76-MF01 and refinery to
Propane Refrigeration Package 76-ML01 will cause the unit to operate on recycle
automatically to maintain compressor suction pressure. Operators should monitor the
unit and initiate a shutdown if required.
5. Loss of butane vapor to Refrigeration Package 76-ML01
Loss of butane vapor flow from both Butane Storage Tank 76-MF02 and refinery to
Refrigeration Package 76-ML01 will have no effect.

6.0 SAFETY/EMERGENCY SHUTDOWN


6.1 Safety Critical Shutdown Systems
To insure safe operation, this unit is provided with a variety of permissives, alarms,
shutdowns and other action devices as discussed below. Most of these annunciate on the
UCP HMI and at customer DCS. All of the alarm and shutdown indications receive their
values via switches or transmitters and reside in the PLC.
For physical end devices, all inputs are closed during normal operation (i.e. circuit energized
or logic signal present). This is for fail safe consideration; thus in case of a loss of power
(broken or shorted wire), the alarm or shut down will annunciate. If any end device opens,
(i.e. circuit de-energized or logic signal not present) the loss of a logic signal will annunciate
the condition.
When an alarm or shutdown indication is captured by the system, the problem must be
corrected and then the alarm or shutdown can be cleared by pressing the Reset Switch.
The system is programmed to provide time and date for all alarm or shutdown devices.
Each alarm and each shutdown are grouped separately, each group having its own first out
capability. The first occurrence of an alarm or shutdown will be displayed on the HMI.
Emergency Stop System (ESD)
For safety reasons, the refrigeration unit control system incorporates a hardwired
Emergency Shutdown Circuit (ESD), which when activated will cause a normal shutdown
except that all rotating equipment and the oil reservoir heater will be immediately
deenergized.
Local control panels on each compressor skid are also provided with ESD switches. ESD
76-HZ-5009, on 1st Stage Compressor, and 76-HZ-5010, will shutdown both the 1st Stage
and 2nd Stage Compressors. If the local or remote ESD is initiated, the ESD system must
be reset by performing the following procedure; (1) The switch that was tripped must be
physically reset to the operating position and (2) the system reset switch must be pressed.
Several permissives must be satisfied in order to allow the PLC to initiate an actual
compressor motor start. These permissives are in addition to all other Refrigeration Unit
shutdowns being clear.

6.1.1 76-ML01-MJ01-A-M, 1st Stage Propane Compressor Shutdown


This interlock will trip 76-ML01-MJ01-A-M, 1st Stage Compressor Motor on high high
compressor discharge pressure or high high discharge temperature.
6.1.2 76-ML01-MJ01-B-M, 1st Stage Compressor Shutdown
This interlock will trip 76-ML01-MJ01-B-M motor on high high compressor discharge
pressure or high high discharge temperature.
6.1.3 76-ML01-MJ04-A-M, 2nd Stage Compressor Shutdown
This interlock will trip 76-ML01-MJ04-A-M Motor on high high compressor discharge
pressure or high high discharge temperature.
6.1.4 76-ML01-MJ04-B-M, 2nd Stage Compressor Shutdown
