3. CASE : AIR PRE-HEATER ROTOR STOPPAGE.

Air pre heater rotor stoppage alarm appears after – 50 see of rotor stoppage.
Rotor stoppage can occur due to following reasons:-
Case I – APH running motor fluid coupling or clutch fails.
Case II – APH trips due to any of the bearings of support/guide lube oil temperature
going more than 70 deg. C.
Case III – Running motor trips, standby fails to come up or U/D PTW and Air motor

5. DESCRIPTION
GENERATORS OF 210 MW UNITS OF NTPC DADRI (THERMAL-UNITS 1, 2, 3, 4) ARE

PROVIDED WITH HYDROGEN COOLING SYSTEM. HYDROGEN IN THE GENERATOR CASING IS AT
A PREASSURE OF 3.5 KSC. AND IS SEALED AT THE END SHIELDS WITH SEALS AND SEAL-OIL
SYSTEM.
HYDROGEN FORMS EXPLOSIVE MIXTURES WHEN THE CONCENTRATON/RITY OF HYDROGEN IS

BETWEEN 5% TO 95% IN THE AIR.
TO AVOID THE FORMATION OF EXPLOSIVE MIXTURES DURING FILLING AND

PURGING OF HYDROGEN, CO2 IS USED AS AN INTERMEDIATE FILLING/PURGING MEDIUM IN
THE PROCESS.
WHENEVER HYDROGEN IS TO BE FILLED OR PURGED FROM GENERATOR CASING,

PROCEDURE IS TO BE FOLLOWED IS AS BELOW.
1. FOR FILLING HYDROGEN IN THE GENERATOR CASING.

FIRST PURGEOUT AIR FROM THE GENERATOR BY FILLING CO2.
THEN FILL HYDROGEN AND PURGEOUT CO2.
2. FOR PURGOUT OF HYDROGEN FROM THE GENERATOR CASING.

FIRST FILL CO2 IN THE GENERATOR TO PURGE HYDROGEN.
THEN FILL AIR TO PURGE CO2 FROM THE GENERATOR.
