    The document provides steps to analyze the cause of a condenser vacuum drop. It lists checking cooling water parameters like pH, hardness, calcium and magnesium levels. It also suggests monitoring for precipitation in the cooling water. Temperature and pressure differences across the condenser should be examined. Operational variables like air leaks, drain temperatures, and the performance of heat exchangers for ejector steam condensing should also be checked.

    Points to analyze for condenser vacuum drop

    Check Water parameters

    a. Does circulating water pH was maintained well within the specified operating range?
    b. Check Cooling Water Ca & Mg Hardness is maintained well below the specified operating
    range?
    c. Whether Cooling Water COC with Calcium and Magnesium are running parallel?
    d. Whether Ca/Mg Ratio of Make and Circulating water are also running parallel?

    02. On basis of above water parameters observe whether the precipitation is happening at any point of
    time.

    03. Also check the condenser parameters.


    a. Changes in dP across the condenser
    b. Check whether due to increase in dP is there a gradual increase in CW O/L & I/L temp.

    04. In this situation we also have to concentrate on operational variables. check the following areas?
    a. Chances of Air-in-leakage from various joints and blinds.
    b. Check the temp profiles of all the drains joining condenser.
    c. Performance of heat exchanger installed for condensing steam used in air ejectors.
