BCP water coolers online back flushing can be done if needed due to consistent temperature rise of BCP

motor cavity.

CBP cavity normal temperatures are around 50 C

High temp alarm is sounded at 57 C

BCP trip set point is at 66 C

Steps:

Online cooler backwashing is done as per following steps:

1. Unit load should be minimum


2. Inform CCR to keep an eye on the BCP cavity temperature
3. Contact MMD engineer available for men power and other arrangements
4. Close cooling water supply and return isolation valves
5. MMD will open cooling water supply flange located at 2 nd floor
6. Open cooling water return isolation valve (IPGB20 AA210 for LP) to back flush and remove the
debris, corrosion particles, clay, algae, shells etc
7. Close cooling water return isolation valve (1PGB 30 AA210 for LP) after sufficient flushing and
cleaning of the impurities
8. Open cooling water supply isolation valve and flush the supply pipe
9. Close supply and return isolation valves and get the get supply line flange installation by MMD
10. Open cooling water supply valve and vent the line
11. Open cooling water isolation valve and normalize the circuit
12. Keep the system under observation for leakages, temperature trend etc

Precautions:

1. Closely watch the cavity temperatures during the activity, ask CCR for coordination
2. Plan with MMD to manage the resources adequately to minimize the activity duration
3. Plan activity on minimum load
4. Ensure safety measures and coordination
