Indirect Water Bath Heater outlet temperature control:
The gas temperature downstream the heater will be controlled by PLC Panel. Input for the
temperature control comes from thé set point from DCS Control System. *
The temperature input for the heater control is determined by the signal from 1 temperature
transmitter, which is installed at the outlet of the heater.
Indirect Water Bath temperature control:
The water bath temperature is controlled by the local control panel. The temperature
element measures the temperature and local control panel controls the fuel gas flow through
water bath heater.
The gas flow into the burner is supplied through a pressure reduction. The pressure
reduction is accomplished through a self actuated PRV which reduces the gas pressure from
apprx. 3-12 Kg/cme (g) to 0.5 Kg/cm2 (g).

7.0 Checks Prior to Starting
The initial start up of the Water Bath Heater unit should be conducted by a technician
from the “Multitex Filtration Engineers tld. The customer should provide qualified
maintenance personnel to assist the technician during the commissioning process. The
following is alist of items to be checked prior to start up. a
Verify that the mechanical installation has been completed in accordance with
any applicable installation drawings and/or procedures supplied by Multitex
and/or the site engineers
Visually check piping and ductwork installation for compliance with the flow
schematics.
Verify that all globe valves, strainers, check valves and control valves have been
installed with the correct flow direction and orientation,
Ensure that all piping to the heater and burner are correctly supported and
stress relieved
Verify that the discharge piping from any relief valves is piped to a safe location.
Install a “skillet” at the relief valve inlet flanges.
Verify that all drain valves are closed
Open or close all manual valves and/or dampers according to the correct
operating position. Refer to the flow diagrams or contact Multitex with
questions.
Open all pressure gauge and device shut off valves.
Verify that the electrical installation is complete and is in compliance with the
electrical schematics.
Check all safety and control devices to verify that they are correctly installed and
have the correct ranges and set points according to the mechanical and electrical
diagrams.
8.0 First Firing of the System
1) It is important that a Multitex technician or representative commission the convection
heater to ensure safe and correct operation of the equipment. Do not attempt to
commission the heater without direct supervision of a Multitex representative.
2) Verify that the recirculation damper is going to be 100% open with the corresponding
actuator position
3) The burner should be started and held at low fire to allow the system to slowly warm up.
The system should be in “Stand-By" mode of operation. Some bumers require a longer
period of either low fire or pilot only operation to cure refractory discharge blocks,
4) The temperature must be increased slowly by placing the Stand-By temperature
controller (TIC) in "MANUAL" control mode and increasing the output to the burner in small
increments. If there is no process flow while during this process, the chamber temperature
can tise very quickly.
5) Adjustments must be made to the fuel and air controls to establish the mechanical limits
assoziated with the low fire and high fire settings. These changes should only be made by
a qualified Multitex approved start-up technician.

MANGALORE PHASE 1
CAUTION: Never attempt fo perform any burner tuning without the direct supervision
of a qualified burner technician that has been approved by Multitex.
6) Once the initial low fire and high fire settings have been established, the Stand-By mode
controller can be placed in automatic mode and allowed to modulate.
7) Alow the burner to reach high fire and check the burner settings to insure that the high
fire fuel and air are configured correctly. Make a note of the lower plenum temperature, end
wait ‘or the process temperature to reach its required set point.

MANGALORE PHASE 1
Burner Management System
‘The burner management system described here below is sequenced for automatic /
manval (test) operation of the burner from the control panel supplied along with the burner.
The bumer control panel will house the necessary interlocks required for the safe operation
of the burner in automatic / manual mode. This is achieved by use of hardwired system
using solid-state timers, contractors etc. To facilitate operation / monitoring of the bumer
operation the control panel will be provided with necessary push buttons indicating lamps
on the front side of the contro! panel
The controlled elements are the combustion air-blower (which also supplies air for the pre-
purge operation), ignition, main valve and control motor for changing the output of bumer
from lo-fire to hi-fire and vice-versa, and alarm. The burner flame is continuously monitored
using a flame-monitoring device consisting of flame rod mounted on the burner and a relay
unit mounted inside the control panel.
The sequence of operation of the system will be as under:
1. The main power supply is switched on and subsequently the supply to the contro!
panel is switched on. The successful energisation of the control panel is indicated
by an indication light (SUPPLY ON)
Mode or operation (AUTO / MANUAL) is selected using a selector switch located on
the control panel. Let us suppose that the selection is made for AUTO mode gas
operation.
To initiate the operation of the burner system , the COMUSTION START push
button is pressed. This action initiates the blower operation to supply air for the pre-
purge operation,
Once the blower starts running the pre-purge operation sequence starts. During this
‘operation the combustion air blower delivers the purging air for a fixed duration of
time set on a purge timer located in the control panel.
Once the pre-purging operation is over, the sequence for initiating the ignition
‘comes into operation. The flame monitoring system is also simultaneously
energized alongwith the ignition transformer. Alongwith the energisation of the
ignition transformer, a ignition time delay timer is also energized. This timer de-
energises the ignition transformer after a set period of time.
‘Once the pre-purging operation is over, the burner is initially lighted on low ‘ire
position. The air butterfly valve is connected with control motor by flexible coupling.
‘The movement of this valve is controlled by two position (high / low) Servomotor.
During the low fire position’ the servomotor is at ‘low’ position and during high ‘ire
the servomotor is at ‘high’ position
During initial start-up, as mentioned above the burner is fired at low-fire. The main gas
valve opens and the main flame is lighted by the direct spark ignition.
The flame sensor, then monitors the main flame continuously. The BURNER ON indicating
lamp indicates the establishment of the main flame. IN case the main flame goes out or is.
not established, a signal is given to the main gas valve to close, a FLAME OFF alarm is

given (which has to be acknowledge) and the post-purge operation is initiated, as
described below (7).
In addition to above an interlock will be provided between the burner operation and
presstire switch. . ees ~—
8. In case, the main flame goes off for any reason or in case of normal shutdown, the
post-purge operation is initiated. A signal is given to the main gas valve to close and
the FLAME OFF alarm is given, which have to be acknowledged,
The combustion air blower then supplies air for the post-purge operation for a set duration
of time and then the combustion air blower is switched off.
€. In case of MANUAL / TEST mode selection all the safety interlocks remain as for
the automatic operation except that the push buttons will have to pressed manually.
9.0 Daily Oper:
Routine start ups and operation should only be conducted by personnel that have been
fully trained in the operation, and are familiar with all system component manufacturers’
operating instructions.
10.0 Shut Down
1) Remove the signal for enabling process control mode
2) Alow the heater to resume “Stand-By” operation, which is the default mode of operation
when the run mode is set to "DCS".
3) Tum the burner off
11.0 Start Up After Routine Shutdown
Check that all manual valves are in the correct operational position.
Visually inspect system for leaks or other problems,
Perform any scheduled maintenance on any equipment in the system per the
manufacturer's recommendations.
Check that the fuel supply is turned on.
Energize the control panel.
Turn the burner switch to the "ON" position.
if all system interlocks and safeties are satisfied, the burner will start and stay at low
fire until the low fire hold set point has been reached. The burner will then.
modulate as necessary to achieve and maintain the desired set point in standby
mode.
Check that all pressure gauges are indicating normal operating pressures.
Itis recommended that operator attendance be maintained while the
system is being heated up.
Operators and/or maintenance personnel should periodically check on the
system throughout their shift for any signs of trouble.
