SCOPE
The document covers all steam turbine components and provides the handling, inspection and storage instructions for large steam turbine components at site. A strict adherence to these instructions is necessary to avoid damages during handling and storage at site.

17. HANDLING OF EQUIPMENT :
In any kind of rigging work it is necessary to strictly observe the safety precautions, since even the slightest negligence and non observance of the rules may result in accidents, which may cause damage to equipment or injury to men.
The site for the rigging work involving lifting and conveying of loads should be well lighted. The loads must not be lifted unless the crane operator can see clearly the signals given by the rigger.
The positions where the slings are to be put, are marked on the packages and on the drawings. While lifting/handling these packages/equipment, the slings should only be put at the proper places.
The slings of the proper sizes and lengths should only be used for handling the equipment/packages. The angle between the two arms of the sling at the crane hook should be small (depending upon the dia of the sling) so as to have proper loading of the sling.
The turbine rotors and cylinder covers (in assembled condition are lifted by the use of special lifting devices supplied by BHEL. The use of these lifting devices facilitates correct slinging and maintain horizontal position of the components. These devices, after use, should be properly stored and conserved so as to ensure that they do not get damaged during storage. Before using them, they should be thoroughly inspected.
The work related to handling of the loads (packages or equipment) by crane or by other hoisting mechanism should be entrusted to trained riggers only. If the rigger/operator is not sure of the weight of the item/package (load) to be handled, he must ask for the required information before handling the equipment.
The rigger and the crane operator should see that the hook and the ropes of the crane occupy vertical position, before hoisting the load. Dragging of the load by slanting ropes is not allowed. The center of gravity of the load should be aligned with the vertical axis of the crane hook.
The eye bolts, 'D' shackles, turn buckles, and wire ropes of suitable sizes should only be used for handling of the equipment. Before using, they should be thoroughly inspected to their full threads, so as to avoid any chance of slipping then the load comes on them.
Before giving a signal to lift the load, the rigger must check and ensure that there are no loose parts or tools on the load, which might fall during lifting. Then the load must be lifted 100 or 200 mm high for checking the uniformity of sling tensioning and reliability of lashing. If it is necessary to rearrange the sling lengths, the load must be lowered and then the slings rearranged.
Before horizontal conveyance of the load the rigger must see that the load has been lifted to a height at least 0.5 M above the tallest object, on the path of the load.
Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited
Rev 00, 7-98
T1-08-0801G
Page No. 17

18. While the load is being conveyed, the rigger must accompany it and see that it is not moved above any person. Prior to lowering the load the rigger should examine the ground on which the load will be, lowered and make sure that these is no risk of falling or slipping of the load.
If any one of the personnel present during lifting or lowering of the load detects some defect of the crane or sling of notices some conditions jeopardizing the lifting or lowering operation, he must give a signal for emergency grounding of the package or components.
Smooth lifting and transportation of equipment must be ensured. Shocks and jerks should be avoided.
All lifting devices, slings must be properly conserved after use and periodically inspected and tested.
In the turbines having diaphragms, it is prohibited to handle diaphragms by putting slings in between the blades. For handling the welded diaphragms, special lifting devices is supplied by BHEL and the cast diaphragms are handled by putting the eye bolts, for which the provision of threads holes have been made in the diaphragms.
While handling the bearings, it is prohibited to put the sling across the rabbit surface of the bearings. Threaded holes have been provided; in which the eye bolts have to be put for handling of the bearings.
While handling the cylinders, it must be ensured that the slings or any other material does not get rubbed at their horizontal and vertical parting planes or at any other machined surface.
The handling of the long components such as longitudinal girder, endwall etc. should be done with extra care. When they are placed on the floor, in addition to the end supports, few extra supports at the intermediate positions must be provided.
While handling LP rotor with free standing blades, care must be taken to ensure that no force is exerted on the free standing blades to avoid collapsing of clamping pieces under blade root.
MARKINGS ON PACKING CASES
Various symbols are marked on the packing cases as per 0456.001 to facilitate storage and handling of the crates and protection of equipment inside.
INSPECTION
Before storing the equipment it should be opened for visual examination or the internal packing, protective coating and condition of the equipment. Any damage to packing and conservation should be immediately rectified.
It is necessary to carryout first inspection within three weeks of arrival of the consignment. Thereafter, all the equipment should be inspected once in every three months to insure that the conservation is intact. During rainy season, the inspection should be done once in a month. At any time, if any original
Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited
Rev 00, 7-98
T1-08-0801G
Page No. 18

19. conservation is found damaged, it should be reconserved as per relevant conservation instructions No. ST 33004.
While inspecting the packages containing rotors, special care should be taken to check the journals. In case of slightest sign of pitting on the journals and thrust collar, immediate steps for rectification should be taken and equipment reconserved as per relevant conservation instructions.
STORAGE
All steam turbine equipment should be accommodated in the designated place of storage immediately after arrival at destination. This is very essential particularly during the rainy season.
Store houses fall into the following categories

20. The platforms and store-houses should be built up in conformity with the fire prevention rules and standards. Complete storage area especially the ‘R’ & ‘S’ catagory must be adequately fenced & protected against theft & pilferage.
These store houses and areas around them should have proper drainage facility for the sub-soil, surface and rain water. The water should not be allowed to stand or get accumulated in these areas, especially where the material has been stored.
Store house should be provided with proper ventilation facilities.
Level should be maintained for all the packages and equipment and should be uniformly supported to avoid distortion. The long packages should be supported at intermediate places also, so as to avoid sagging during storage.
Store houses should preferably be equipped with proper lifting devices to ensure normal handling of equipment.
Small and medium size parts can be kept on shelves with proper identification tags.
Packages upto 5 tones can be placed on upon the other upto 2.5m in height using required number of wooden spacers 50 mm thick. In doing so, lighter packages would be laid upon heavier once to avoid any damage to lower packages.
Articles weighing more than 5 tones should be laid in a single tier.
For heavier components under ‘Q’, the roof/walls may be constructed/fabricated after placement of the component on cemented/pucca hard floor.

REAMING / HONING OF COUPLING
Ensure that there is no disturbance on coupling during reaming/honing operation.
First ream/hone two opposite holes of the coupling and install two pins/bolts with sliding fit and then take up all other holes.
Enlarge coupling holes to the minimum possible diameter and try to make all the holes to same dia.
Ensure that the finished holes are straight and there is no banana shape. This can be ensured by checking hole with a straight ground finish pin having 0.02/0.03 mm clearance.
The length of the pin should be equal to the bolt length. In case, few holes have gone considerably over size during reaming/honing at site/works, do not enlarge all the holes. As a special case in such cases these few holes may be left as oversize.
Ensure that the holes during reaming/honing are perfectly finished as ground bore and size obtained should be within 0.005 mm. Ensure all the coupling bolts are fitted within 0.02/0.03 mm clearance with sliding fit and bolts are to be ground within an accuracy of 0.005 mm.

50. may be used. During balancing of coupling bolts following points are to be taken care.
Final balancing of the coupling bolts are to be done along with the coupling nut of individual bolt.
If all the coupling bolt hole sizes are same before/after reaming and honing then all the bolts can be kept of equal weight.
If necessary adjust the weight of the bolts by machining the metal from the bolt head.
When the holes of the coupling are of different sizes then it must be seen that whether excess enlargement have been done at site or works. In such cases if excess cutting have been done at site in a particular hole then coupling bolt with excess weight are to be used. The amount of excess weight must be equivalent to the excess enlargement of hole at site. If a particular hole of excess dia. is noticed from factory then it is assured that the particular rotor is balanced with excess dia hole and there is no need of providing excess weight bolt at site.
COLOUR MATCHING OF THRUST BEARING
After completion of reaming/honing and preliminary tightening of the coupling bolts, the colour matching of the thrust bearing pad have to be carried out with respect to the thrust collar of the HP Rotor.

55. Grouting of turbine base plates, bearing pedestals, foundation frame with shrink-free grouting compound is intended to ensure uniform transmission of the force and vibration of the TG unit to the foundation.
Caution:
Preparations for grouting, and grouting must be carried out with great care as it is no longer possible to check and rectify the parts once they have been grouted.
CONBEXTRA GP-II or equivalent should be used as grouting compound. Further details on the grouting depths, mixing time, quantity of water to be mixed, should be refereed from the manufacturers brochures.
PROCEDURE
The foundation should be thoroughly cleaned. All foundation bolt holes should be filled with pea-gravels and covered at the top to avoid entry and sticking of grouting materials with the bolts.
NOTE:- Remove all rust preventive paints, grease etc. from surfaces by wire brushes to ensure proper adhesion of the grouting compound.
SETTING UP OF SHUTTERING
Set up shuttering from suitable material in box like manner around the foundation plates and secure it firmly.
NOTE:- Shuttering must be sealed well to prevent the liquid grouting compound from running out. This can be done by using paste of grout materials and allowing it sets.
As the grouting compound remains workable for a limited time, to prevent air bubbles, it must be poured from one side only. For this, a large size filling heaped should be used.
Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited
Rev 00, 7-98
T1-08-0801G
Page No. 55

56. PREPARATION OF GROUT MIX
Following measure must be taken before commencing mixing and grouting due to limited time that the grouting compound remains workable.
Keep the foundation moist for at least 6 hours before the grouting.
-Set up mixers in the immediate vicinity of the foundation plates. The capacity of the mixers, should be adequate to cope with the quantity of mixed cement required at a time. Two or more mixers are required for grouting of bearing pedestal foundation frame.
-Store the grouting compound next to mixer.
- Ensure that the compound is well within its expiry date.
-Provide the water hose and measuring pans near the mixers.
-Ensure uninterrupted power supply to the mixers and EOT Crane for handling the ready mix.
-Provide adequate workmen for grouting.
-Ensure six empty cubes for filling the grout for strength testing. This is to be done as per recommended FQP
-Take 80 % of the required water quantity first in the mixture. Then add gradually the grout, ensuring that no lumps are found. It is desirable to add five or six large sizes stones to break any lumps. Finally add the balance quantity of water and mix for at- least another five minutes
Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited
Rev 00, 7-98
T1-08-0801G
Page No. 56

57. This mixture is then taken into through heaped mesh. The hopper must be big enough to make the full quantity of grout.
Than pour the grout with a hose through the filling hopper until the desired height is achieved on the opposite side. (Flow may be accelerated by moving the grout in the filling nozzles underneath the plates with chains or material strips.) This should be done only if it is permitted by the grout supplier.
CAUTIONS
1. Do not use concrete vibrator.
2. Pour grout from one side only so that no air bubbles remains entrapped in the grouting compound.
3. Due to short workability times, never mix more grouting compound at one time than is required for one plate or volume to be grouted.
4. Pour in one continuous operation, without interruption.
5. Do not install any woven steel fabric reinforcing mats beneath the foundation plates.
6. It is desirable that in hot weather the grouting is done in the evening so that ambient temperature is low during the initial setting time.
7. Water should be clean and free from dissolved chlorides, as these weaken the grout.
8. In case during the grouting operations heavy leakage is observed from the shuttering that cannot be plugged during the grouting operation, and the level of grout has fallen below the base plate level, it is desirable to wash out the complete grout. The operation should be repeated after the shuttering has been rectified.
NOTE:- After at-least 72 hours setting time, work may be commenced on pre- tensioning of the foundation both.
After the grouting compound has set (approximately. 24 hours after grouting), remove all shuttering and smooth off the excess grout. The grouting compound is subjected to

63. ASSEMBLY OF BEARING AT SITE
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The KWU design machine are supplied with four bearings out of which three are the journal bearing and one is combined thrust and journal bearing on H.P. rear end of the shaft. All the turbine bearing are self aligning type and they adjust themselves as per the catenary of the machine.
The function of a journal bearing is to support the turbine shaft , but the thrust bearing support the shaft as well as work as a fix point for the turbine shaft. The contact arrangements between bearing and bearing supports are of two types i.e. sphere to sphere in HP front and HP rear bearing and torus to cylindrical in other bearings.
The bearings are supplied to site after ensuring their contact at works. During erection all the bearing are supplied to site in aligned and assemble condition in their individual pedestal from the works. After alignment of the bearing in their pedestal the seat of the bearing are doweled before dispatch to site.
In case of Thrust and Journal bearing the seat of the bearing neither doweled from the works nor it is recommended to be doweled at site. The bearings need preparation before placement of module in position at site. This can be done even before the placement of pedestal in position for grouting.
ASSEMBLY PROCEDURE
1. After opening the pedestal remove and clean the bearing including its spherical/ cylindrical seat.
2. Remove oil guard ring and its duct and keep them in proper place for their storage at site.
3. Handle bearing carefully to avoid any damage to the babbit and its torus/spherical piece. During storage at site avoid direct loading of bearing on its torus. A thick rubber seat may be used during handling of bearing at site on its torus.
4. Ensure 0.03 feeler tightness on bearing parting plane. In case of any variation the matter may be referred to designers.
5. Measure bore dia of the bearing and journal dia at site and ensure the oil clearances. If any discrepancy is observed , designer may be referred.
6. Ensure torus/spherical contact with their seats at site. While checking the contact the seat may be bolted with their pedestal. In case variation contact from their specified diagrams are noticed then following may be carried out at site:-
a) In case of torus to cylindrical seats the line contact are recommended by designers. If these lines are not straight

64. and are in angle then the bearing may be rejected straight way and sent to works for rectification. These line contact may be in a width of about 20 mm throughout on its seat leaving with area on both sides. The contact may be wide in Center and then gradually reducing on sides. In case there is no contact is achieved in the center and only sides are having contact then a feeler gap may be recorded in bottom. In case if the bottom is tight to a feeler of 0.03 mm the bearing may be accepted at site without doing any rectification.
b) In a reverse case the contact are achieved in center only though the 0.03 feeler is not going in the side. The bearing may be still accepted at site. In case if the feeler is going in the bottom or in sides by 0.03 mm. the bearing are not accepted at site and can be sent back for the rectification to the works. Similarly if the contact are intermittent on its seat but in a straight line and no feeler is going the bearing may be accepted. In case of very wide contact also the bearing may be sent back for the rectification. While checking these contact very light color may be put on torus of the bearing. Before sending back the bearing to the works the matter may be referred to designers and their concurrence is to be obtained. No scrapping/lapping is recommended in these bearing for improvement of the contact.
c) In case of spherical to spherical bearing the contacts are called in the center like a moon shape. In these bearings even full contact may be accepted. But in case if there are contact on sides and a feeler gap is noticed on center then the bearing may not be accepted.
In such cases if the gap is upto 0.03 mm then the matching/lapping may be carried out at site. But in case of higher gap the matter may be referred to designers. In case of reverse case if the feeler gap of 0.03 is noticed on both sides of the bearing the bearing may not accepted at site and matter may be referred to designers.

65. 7. Before checking the contact between torus and its seat ensure that the seat is feeler tight to 0.03 mm without tightening of any bolts with the pedestal. If necessary this may be corrected with consultation of designers. Similarly ensure contact between torus spherical piece with bearing and in case of variation the matter be referred to designers and no correction is to be carried out at site without the approval of manufacturing unit.
8. Before checking the contact between torus/spherical piece with bearing and in case of variation the matter may be referred to designers and no correction is to be carried out at site without their recommendations.
9. The sizes of all the shims may be punched in bearing body and spherical/torus piece of the bearing. The number of shims are to be limited to 3-4 numbers only even after complete alignment of machine. A protocol for number of shims may be prepared.
10. Torus/spherical should not have any radial movement over its bearing. This can be seen after opening the torus from the bearing.
11. Check jacking oil lines of the bearing and clean them thoroughly. Ensure jacking oil lines fittings also for their male female threads etc otherwise this may create the oil leakage through these lines during operation of the machine. The jacking oil pocket in the bearing may be checked if necessary they may be corrected at site as per the drawings.
12. When ever JOP is not available, use always thick oil during rotation of shaft over bearing.The type of oil may be used as servo cylinder 1000 grade of IOC.
13. After installation of bearing in position the oil clearances may be checked after few rotation of the shaft. But the final oil clearances are to be checked after final coupling of the shaft. In case of variation in side oil clearances no cutting of babbitt metal is permitted at site. Any variation in clearances may be counter checked by measuring journal / bearing bore dia. Bearing bore dia is to be measured by assembling and tightening of top & bottom halves of bearing.
14. In case of skew side oil clearances, the investigation may be carried out, if necessary consult manufacturing unit.
15. Ensure good contact between journal and babbitt metal of the bearing in the center. Any minor high spot may be removed from the babbitt metal while checking with blue color. Ensure full contact of shaft over the jacking oil pocket also.

66. 16. Always cover rotor journal with the upper half bearing to avoid entry of any sand particles etc. in the bearing . During pouring of oil the upper bearing may be removed and replaced back after the pouring of oil.
17. After completing the reaming/honing and final tightening of coupling bolts the work of bearing side pad, yoke keys and oil guard fitting may be taken up.
18. Before starting the side pad and top keys ensure that the bearing is perfectly level on parting plane. Ensure that the gap for the side pads are parallel otherwise these are to be made by cutting/scrapping.
19. After fitting of the bearing cap if the gap for the radial top keys are in taper a proper correction is to be made here. The bearing cap may also be repositioned to achieve the parallelity of the key way. The cap may be re-doweled after repositioning it but no taper are to be left on these area. If repositioning of cap is not helping then the cutting may be carried out in bearing cap.
20. The gap for the top packer of bearing may also be checked. In case of any taper the same is to be corrected by cutting on bearing cap. Sometime the size of this packer comes to very low i.e. even below 5.00 mm. This may be corrected by matching the cap and size for this packer may be kept around 6.00 mm.
21. On all these bearing cap key a proper fitting and clearances are to be maintained during assembly. These key of proper material are to be only used and no welding deposits are permitted here. The new key may be made at site by EN-24 material if correct key are not available at site.
22. Use of local made shims in bearing may be avoided and shims supplied from the works with proper cutting of holes are to be used. Ensure drawing requirement of maximum adjustment at site by + 0.3mm in shim size from manufactured condition.
23. A proper care should be given during fitting of bearing oil guard ring otherwise it causes the oil leakage during operation of the machine through pedestals. Parting plane joint of oil guard ring and duct should be feeler tight and no elongation of holes on these area may be permitted.
24. The bearing parting plane bolt are to be tightened to required torque only no other method of tightening of these bolts may be used.
25. Adjustment of shims between spherical/torus and bearing body is limited to +0.30 mm in up and down and left, right direction. this

67. margin may be left for emergency work during overhauling of the machine any adjustment during erection and normal overhauling may be done by adjusting shims between spherical/cylindrical seat and pedestal base only. For left and right adjustment the complete pedestal of HP front and HP rear may be moved with the help of their radial keys.
The above discussed points were common for Journal bearing and combined thrust and journal bearing. Now some specific points are detailed here for the assembly of combined Thrust and Journal bearing:
• Remove all the thrust pads before placement of bearing in position and store them in a proper place.
• Pressure proper fitting of babbitt metal liner in the bearing body including necessary pinch in the fitting of its liner.
• During alignment of rotor along the bearing with respect to the shaft by moving spherical seat of the bearing radially and axially.
• No elongation of holes are to be carried out in spherical sat of the bearing for the purpose of its alignment.
Before deciding axial position of the bearing the axial position of the rotor is to be determined. If necessary the H.P. rear pedestal as a whole may be shifted axially to ensure correct position of the thrust bearing.
• Align the thrust bearing in such a way that the thrust pad gap achieved are prallel and no difference are noticed in front and rear pad thicknesses.
• Movement in the thrust pad should be ensured and a difference in thickness of packers including shims should be with in + 0.10 mm may be permitted on front and rear pad sizes in exceptional cases.
• After ensuring the perfect alignment of the bearing the axial keys are fitted after assembly of upper half bearing. These axial keys are to be fitted in perfect parallel slots without any clearances. The keys are to be fitted in such a way that there is no movement to the bearing during fitting of these axial keys. Necessary dial gauges are to be installed on bearing during fitting of these keys.
• After completion of axial key works of the bearing the thrust pads may be fitted in the bearing with a clearance of about 0.10/0.15 mm.
• Before fitting of pads in the bearing ensure that there dimension are made parallel to suit the front and rear slot size of the bearing (size between thrust collar and bearing body).
• Ater fitting of pads in the bearing ensure their free movement over the bearing.
• Install lower half bearing in position along with their pads and put very small quantity of oil on journal then rotate the rotor and put blue color on the thrust collar of the rotor on both front and rear side.
• Install upper half bearing along with all pads and fix their axial keys.

68. • Rotate the rotor and move + direction axially with the help of wooden planks. Remove both halves of the bearing and see the blue contact on thrust pads. If necessary some cutting may be carried out on the pads to achieve the color contact. This exercise may be repeated few times to achieve the blue contact
• Ensure a float of 0.30 + 0.10mm during color matching of the thrust pads. If necessary the minor adjustment of shims may be carried out in the bearing pads.
• Before installation of thrust bearing along with thrust pads in position the both halves may be bolted out side and their pads may be checked for color contact over a surface plate also in front and rear both sides. This will reduce the time cycle while carrying out the color contact of the bearing with the rotor.
• During overhauling of the unit the bearing contact are to be rechecked and need correction. In case of torus to cylindrical type of bearing if the contact are not satisfactory then the bearing and its seat may be remachined at works. In spherical to spherical bearing the variation in contact if noticed can be corrected by matching/lapping at site. Sometimes the heavy pitting marks are also noticed on same of the bearing and these need correction by machining it.
