    2/34

    Problem Measures Taken

    1. A lot of matching is required at site at matingsurfaces like wall-girder, packer to module etc, due tolack of surface finish during manufacturing stage.

    This increases overall cycle time for assembly at siteand wastage of man power. The same is to beensured during manufacturing stage to minimize sitematching. .

    Birsinghpur and other sites.

    At site, girder to endwallblue matching can beavoided, 0.2mm feeler gaps

    can be allowed. Tighteningof bolts and seal weldingwill suffice. Anchor platesmatching will have to bedone at site. Formaintaining catenary of

    machine, packers seatingsurfaces may have to beblue matched at sites.

    2. LP inner outer and LP inner inner casing axial

    keys thickness finalized during shop assembly notmatching during erection due to permissible siteadjustments. Hence it is suggested that the axial keyare also to be finalized at site i.e. over size keys areto be supplied along with set temporary keys.

    Birsinghpur and other sites.

    Minor adjustments can be

    done at sites. Oversizesupply of keys is notrequired.

    However, sites can givemore detailed feedback inthis regard.

    Problem Measures Taken

    3. The auxiliary coupling bolts for HP/IP and IP/LPcouplings are supplied 08 nos. and 09 nos.respectively. During swing check at HP front after

    stretching of supplied aux. coupling bolts andrechecking the same after tightening of all thecoupling bolts (after reaming/honing and finalalignment), deviation observed from initial valuesachieved. This leads to re-opening of IP casingand face matching of IP coupling. Hence it is

    suggested that total no of auxiliary couplingbolts(16 nos. for HP/IP and 18 nos. for IP/LPcouplings) are to be supplied to check the swingvalues at HP front with stretching of all thecoupling bolts to avoid this problem.(this problemleads to delay in turbine box-up by one month)

    Rihand, Birsinghpur

    Already implemented forall future sets.100%auxiliary coupling bolts

    will be supplied

    Problem Measures Taken

    4. STG deck inserts (MechanicalEmbedment), Drawing No.2-13100-87156Rev 01: Part nos.05 to 118 have been

    shown as customer scope. This being anEPC contract it is in the scope of the region.Part no.95 (Quantity 5 nos.) plate100X250X600 & part no.96 (Quantity 4nos.) plate 100X200X300 is not so easilyavailable and are difficult to fabricate.

    Birsinghpur, Sipat, Bellary

    Unit has agreed to include 100 mmsize plates in their scope of supply.Such special plates generally not

    available will henceforth besupplied from unit.

    5. Implementation of BOI such as Insulationof Turbine and associated piping needs tobe improved. In fact the type of insulationmay be changed from present spray type to

    castable or ready to assemble insulationpads in order to avoid environmental /health issues.

    Ramagundam and other sites

    Can be implemented on customerdemand against cost differential.Ceramic type blanket insulation forturbine has already been offered for

    2x250 MW Neyvelli project as percustomer requirement at additionalprice.

    6. Special Auxiliary Bearing for No-1journal for SWING CHECK for 500MWset may be designed & supplied by mfg.unit.

    Talcher and other sites

    Use of device made by PSWR, as analternative to aux. bearing under trialat Rihand & Vindhyachal. Onsuccessful feedback from site, PS &STE will review and decide for future

    7.Site suggested that the thermalinsulation (Glass Wool) supplied for

    turbine and turbine piping etc. should beof the same density. It is very difficult forsite to store the glass wool density wiseseparately & during actual use of thewool it is difficult to ascertain theerectors people for taking the wool of

    required density. Also site should be ableto pick up the wool as and when requiredfrom the vendor.

    TDL Panipat

    Isolated case.

    For all other projects, supply, storageand application are in vendors scope.

    Suggestion of workshop participants forusing common density instead of 100 &150 kg/m3 at present has also beendeliberated with PEM representativeattending workshop and participants

    were conveyed various constraintsagainst this suggestion.
