2.2 PRE-REQUISITES:
- The installation of the acoustic enclosure and ventilation system shall be completed. The enclosures shall
be sealed.
- The commissioning of the ventilation system shall be completed. The ventilation fans and dampers shall
work correctly.
- The flow sensors shall be mounted in line with the flow direction in the air duct as per installation
drawing and TURCK manual. The flow sensors shall have the correct type as indicated in § 2.1.
- Gas turbine shall be shut down and cooled after a minimum time of 2 hours.
- A suitable anemometer with operation manual shall be available to control the air velocity in the air inlet
duct.
- Air temperature during calibration shall not be less than the minimum operating temperature allowed by
the operation manual of the anemometer.
- For outdoor installation, the calibration shall not be done during windy conditions.
- If necessary temporary scaffolding for the installation and commissioning to facilitate the access to the
flow sensors.
- The P&ID (MLI 0436) and the installation drawing shall be available.
2.3 GENERAL PROCEDURE:

The range of the output current is 4 to 20 mA.
The signal processor is provided with LED’s to indicate the flow level.
Refer to the manual of the vendor for more information.
Power the signal processor (24VDC).
a) Checking of air flow:

Enough flow shall circulate in the duct were the flow sensors are located, otherwise the flow sensors can’t
work correctly and can’t be calibrated.
When the air inlet of the accessory compartment (applicable for frames 6B.03 and 9E.03) in the up-stream
end is fitted with a motorized damper, this damper shall be fully closed as shown in annexes 6 and 10.
Turn on one ventilation fan and when the flow in the air duct is stabilized at the rated flow in cold conditions
(the test shall be repeated with each ventilation fan):
- Remove the flow sensor located close to the center of the duct.
- Introduce the anemometer in line with the flow direction in the center of the air inlet duct.
- Follow the instruction of the operation manual of the anemometer.
- Seal the gap between the anemometer and the orifice in the inlet duct wall to avoid a leak flow.
- Note the value V of the velocity of the air flow in each inlet duct. It is recommended that the velocity V
shall be 3 times greater than the minimum operating velocity of the flow sensor (V > 3 x 0.5 = 1.5 m/s).

flow sensor shall be located in the half section of the duct and the last flow sensor shall be located in the
other half section of the duct. This last method provides a better estimation of the air flow in the section of

2.4.4 Set point for fault current

Refer to the figure in annex 1.

The set point X1 to detect a low out of range output signal can be set 1 mA below the
minimum output signal of the signal controller, typically 3 mA.
The set point X2 to detect a high out of range output signal shall be set 1 mA above the
saturation current 22 mA of the device, typically 23 mA.
For signal processor FM-IM-2UPLi63X: NAMUR error limits.
2.4.5 Flow variation from cold to hot conditions

At base load in hot conditions the volumetric air flow in the air inlet duct of the compartment
where the flow sensors are located will decrease. A margin of maximum 60% approximately
will avoid spurious low flow alarms of the unit.
If the initial margin decreases after a long period, the root cause shall be determined (for
example: additional enclosure leaks bypassing the air inlet, flow sensor dirty, signal processor
fault, etc…).
See the figure in annex 1.
