    The document outlines the commissioning procedure and checks for a water tube boiler. It discusses pre-commissioning checks to ensure equipment is ready. It then describes conducting trial runs of individual equipment to test operations. Finally, it explains performing a trial operation of the boiler itself, gradually increasing load and monitoring performance to ensure safe and optimized operation is achieved before taking the boiler to full load.

    Water tube Boiler

    Commissioning Procedure and


    Checklists
    The operation of checking the equipment and tuning them before putting
    into commercial operation is commonly termed as ‘commissioning’. The
    boiler commissioning activity includes the following:

    Boiler Inspection, pre-operation checking and preparation of


    the equipment including specialized cleaning.
    Trial run, initial operation and performance monitoring.

    Water tube Boiler Commissioning

    Many of the equipment including auxiliaries, such as fans, ESP,


    handling system, etc., are engineered and supplied by different
    agencies. Hence, commissioning activities involves effective co-
    ordination with various suppliers.

    Pre-commissioning Checks:

    This activity is performed, to ensure erection completion, compliance


    of critical dimensions/tolerances, checking of field quality assurance
    log sheets, removal of unwanted material and to ensure access
    facilities for maintenance and inspection. Checking each product as
    per the commissioning check list before starting of any boiler
    commissioning activity will enable smooth commissioning of the boiler.

    Trial run of the equipment:

    All the rotating equipment must be individually taken up for trial


    run. Before trial run, the availability of power, cooling water,
    lubricants should be ensured. Prior to trial run of the equipment, the
    drive unit will be taken up for trial run, in uncoupled condition. The
    protection and interlocks should be tested and ensured. After
    successful commissioning of the drive unit, the equipment will be
    coupled and trials run, at no load, for unusual noise, abnormal
    vibrations etc., to be caused out. Any defects should be immediately
    attended and trial run repeated till satisfactory results are
    obtained.

    Pre-commissioning Activities

    The following activities are to be carried out before commencing trial


    operation of the boiler.

    Refractory dry out


    Air tightness test
    Gas tightness test
    Alkali Boil out
    Passivation
    Steam blowing
    Safety valve setting
    Testing of protection & interlocks
    Calibration of instruments
    Trial Operation of boiler:

    Satisfactory completion of pre-commissioning activities is a milestone


    in boiler commissioning. This indicates readiness of the boiler for
    trial operation. At this time, all facilities and inputs, for loading
    the units and putting into regular service should be ready.

    The boiler should be lighted up in accordance with the operation and


    maintenance instructions. The rate of pressure rise and furnace outlet
    temperature should strictly adhere to the start-up curve. During the
    first few start-ups, it is recommended to raise the load at a slower
    rate in order to acquaint the operators with the behavior of the
    various systems.

    All the automatic controls including the furnace drafts, drum level,
    the steam temperature should be put into operation progressively.
    Combustion regime adjustments should be taken up at this stage for
    optimizing the boiler performances. The furnace must be visually
    checked for proper combustion at regular intervals.

    Before taking the unit up to full load, the boiler should be


    maintained at different loads to check the performances of the
    individual equipment as well as the system.

    After successful commissioning and establishing the boiler up to the


    full load, a document highlighting the various activities, record of
    data collected should be prepared and maintained for future reference.
