ASME PTC 6-2004
Steam Turbines
On page 13, Table 3-1, first entry under second column is corrected by erratum to read “3.0%
of the absolute pressure.” See revised table on the overleaf.

(4) In any even, the manufecturer’ allowable variations in pressure temperature and speed are not to be exceeded, unless specifically
agreed to before the test.
(2) Fluctuations woul be indicated by scatter in the data (eter to par. 3-92
(G) When steam is extracted for fedwater heaters, the extraction pressures (which ate fed by the turbine design and flow conditions) may
deviate from expected values by afew percent. This normally has a negligible elfect upon the overall performance. It shall be ascertained
‘that such deviations that do exist are not due to malfunctioning of feedwater heaters. large deviations persist agreement must be
