1 General
1.1 General plant description

The primary air plant consists of following major equipment and components:

 Air heater recovery exchanger or economizer


 Burner system with control panel
 Primary air fan (by customer)
 Primary air ducting from fan to the heat exchanger (by customer)
 Primary air ducting to the air heater
 Primary air ducting from air heater to EGRON and to hot air stack (by customer)
 Flue gas ducting to heat exchanger
 Flue gas ducting from heat exchanger to the stack (by customer)
 Instrumentation and safety devices at the air heater
The primary air is supplied from the primary air fan to the air inlet socket of the heat ex-
changer with partial flow through the bypass ducting.
The mixture of the preheated and cold primary air is then led to the inlet socket of the air
heater.
Using the servo-motor-controlled primary air bypass flaps, the outlet flue gas temperature
from the heat recovery exchanger is controlled at set points as follows:
 Fuel gas firing (FG-mode): 80°C
 Light Fuel Oil firing (LFO-mode): 150°C (to prevent condensation and corrosion)

Internal flow of primary air


In the air heater the air flow is divided into two streams
The first primary air stream cools the combustion chamber in parallel flow with the flue
gas.
The flue gas at the combustion chamber’s outlet is cooled down to approx. 800 till
850°C. At the end of the combustion chamber the flue gas flow is reversed and is
then led through the flue gas tubes, arranged cylindrically around the combustion
chamber. The flue gas leaves the air heater with max. 400°C.
The second primary air stream cools the flue gas tubes. Within the convection part
the flue gas is cooled down in co-current flow (to approx. 80°C at FG-mode, to ap-
prox. 150°C at LFO-mode) and supplied through the heat exchanger to the stack.
At the end of the air heater both primary air streams are mixed together and supplied to
the customers piping to the EGRON or to the customers hot air stack.
The flow in the air heater system is in horizontal direction.

1.2 Operating of the plant

The primary air temperature is controlled by air heater PLC – controller. The primary air is
measured with a resistant thermometer provided in clients piping behind the VTT system.
Depending on this temperature the combustion air and the fuel control valve of the burner
will be opened or closed. The fuel control valve and the combustion air fitting are electron-
ically connected by the burner control manager.
The primary air MAX-temperature is watched by resistant thermometer provided in clients
piping behind the VTT heater and a temperature limiter inside the burner control cabinet.
When the maximum allowed temperature of (TSH 07.04) at heater outlet is increased the
burner will be shut off.
The flue gas MAX-temperature at air heater outlet to heat exchanger is watched by a fur-
ther resistance thermometer and a safety temperature limiter (TSH 07.06 and will also
shut off the burner in case of to high flue gas temperature.
The primary air MIN-flow through the VTT heater is watched by a differential pressure
switch connected between primary air inlet and outlet pipe. When the differential pressure
of switch (PDSL 07.08) is lower then MIN the burner will be shut off to prevent damages
of the system.
The differential pressure control as well as the temperature limiters will be adjusted during
commissioning.

4.2 Structure of the burner equipment

The burner is a modular designed, nozzle-mixed dual fuel compact burner unit.
The burner unit includes within its casting connections for the main fuel gas, the pilot fuel
gas, the heavy fuel oil, the ignition electrode and the flame sensor. The combustion air
fan is also part of the burner unit.
The burner unit is mounted into the combustion chamber insert of the heater. All required
devices for fuel, air supply and control of the burner are mounted to the heater unit.
The burner can be drawn out of the combustion chamber for maintenance and inspection
works.
The primary air differential pressure over the air heater unit will be approx. 47 mbar at de-
signed maximum primary air flow.
Compressed air, supplied by the primary air plant, is needed for cooling / purging of the
combustion chamber sight / inspection glasses.
The pressure air has to be dry and free of any oil.
The flame sensor is cooled by the combustion air of the burner.

5 Transport and storage


All units must only be lifted from the supplied transport eyes / lifting lugs.

The units of the air heater as well as the fittings and the switchboard must be protected
against outside stresses.

The switchboard and all electrical units must be protected against rain and from the ele-
ments.

When the unit is expected to be stored for a prolonged period, it must be packed acc. to
the storage conditions and kept dry and warm.

A brand-new air heater should not be exposed to ambient temperatures lower than + 4°C
due the risk of damaging the refractory.

Rotating parts (e.g. fan shaft) must be manually rotated from time to time to prevent stor-
age damages.

8.4 Commissioning

ATTENTION!
The commissioning of the burner must only be done by authorized and qualified
specialists who are familiar with the special plant conditions as well as with the
operation and safety devices.

Before the commissioning can be started please check if the burner parts have been en-
tirely supplied and if those parts are properly mounted and connected to the supply lines.
These measures will be the basis for the proper process of the continuing works.
In detail we suggest to proceed as follows:
 Compare the burner, fitting and accessory types with the received technical documentation.

 Check fittings to correct installation position.

 Check fuel lines to free flow. The lines have to be free of any dirtiness and impurity.

 Check fuel inlet pressure before opening the fuel fitting to the burner.

 Check electric units to correct energy connections.

 Check flame detector to suitability to the specific flame control system.

 New installed fuel lines are always air-filled and must be deaerated before start-up.

 The supply voltage of the burner control has to be released.

 The primary air fan has to be set in operation for testing the invigilators.

 At minimum air flow working of the primary air fan, the pressure switch (DPSAL 07.08)
has to be adjusted.

 Open main fuel fitting and check if the contacts of the safety devices are closed.

 The function of each control and safety device must be tested by simulating the differ-
ent alarms. The results have to be recorded in writing (attend chapter 2.6.1).

 The flue gas damper has to be fixed in OPEN POSITION (ZSAH 07.16).

 Check signal exchange to superior control system.

 Fuel differential pressures at load case (MIN – NORM – MAX):


They have to be checked during start up and have maybe to be changed.

PD - Main fuel => combustion chamber 00 mbar


PD - Ignition fuel => combustion chamber 00 mbar
PD - Light fuel oil => combustion chamber 00 bar
PD - Primary air => heater system 00 mbar
 Now it must be checked that the drives at the control fittings work correct according to
the signal of the temperature regulator.

 The fuel control and the combustion air control fittings must be set to the minimum or
Start position. For Details look at WEISHAUPT – MANUAL in chapter 12.

 If all pre-conditions mentioned before are released, the combustion air blower is
started by the control system and if purging time is finished the burner start can be ex-
ecuted.

 The fuel / air - ratio has to be adjusted over the complete turndown range such that a
stable flame and good combustion quality can be guaranteed (flue gas testing re-
quired).

 After first heating up to process temperature all flange connections must be


retightened as far as possible by customer. This procedure has to be done again after
an operation time of 5 days. After 500 h operating time the flange connections must be
visually checked to tightness by customer.

Start - up settings look at Chapter 11.2.4 LIMIT AND SET POINT LIST.
Dates must be completed / changed if necessary at the end of the commissioning.

under the supervision of a KEU TECHNICIAN.

8.6 Operating Instructions

8.6.1 START- UP

The burner plant is designed for automatic operation and can be started automatically by
external signal from the superior plant control.

 Before starting the burner make sure that no person can be endangered by
running the plant.

 Before start – up, at least once per shift the entire plant has to be checked for
any external damages and soiling at the inlet filter of the combustion air fan.

 Clean flame detector and spark ignitor.

 Open main fuel valves careful.

 Turn on main switch at the control panel.


 Starting of the plant can be executed EXTERN from EGRON CONTROL ROOM or
LOCAL at the air heater cabinet, if the interlocks are released and the following pre-
conditions are fulfilled. (Attend chapter 8.2 and 8.3)
During start-up the primary air has to be supplied to the heater system with a temperature
between (T-MIN = + 10°C and T-MAX = + 60°C).
The primary air controller (PIC 13.21) is already released during start-up with a pressure
set point presetting from the EGRON CONTROL ROOM.
At start-up and preheating of the air heater the primary air is switched to the HOT AIR
STACK by the EGRON CONTROL ROOM.

ATTENTION!
It has to be ensured that the complete exhaust air system
(Combustion chamber with heat exchanger and the piping’s to the atmosphere)
is sufficiently purged 5 times of the complete fluegas volume of the plant before
burner start according to the regulations of EN 746-2.

The PURGING TIME (according to EN 746-2) of the Combustion chamber and


Heatexchanger outlet is 180 seconds (3 Minutes) is realised with a TIME RELAY
inside the Burner Control.
The PURGE VOLUME of the combustion air fan during this PURGING TIME consti-
tutes too 4100 m³/h COMBUSTION AIR.
The amount of the complete fluegas volume from Burner to end of stack (outlet)
has to be calculated by the customer

The burner can be started. The successful purge is reached when the purge-timer has
elapsed.
Start-up from and to process temperature attend the guideline
“COOLING - DOWN AND HEATING - UP GUIDELINES”

ATTENTION!
The TEMPERATURE CONTROL (TIC 07.03) with a Temperature RAMP for HEATING
- UP
is provided in the burner control system which is
PART of the AIR HEATER CONTROL SYSTEM.
The Controller (TIC 07.03) with the HEATING - UP RAMP has
to keep the temperature curves witch are shown at Chapter 8.5.2.3.2.

After burner is in operating mode the TEMPERATURE CONTROLLER (TIC 07.03) has to
be activated for HEATING UP the air heater according to the HEATING – UP RAMP as
shown in chapter 8.6.2.3.2.

At the end of HEATING UP the primary air behind air heater system will be heated to ap-
prox. 400°C by the controller (TIC 13.20).
If the conditions of the primary air are as estimated the primary air can be switched from
the HOT AIR STACK to the EGRON DRIER by EGRON CONTROL ROOM.
The maximum primary air temperature is limited at 420°C by (TSH 07.04).

For PRESSURE CONTROLLER - PRIMARY AIR (PIC 13.21) attend chapter 8.6.2.1.
For TEMPERATURE CONTROLLER - COMB. CHAMBER (TI 07.14) attend chapter
8.6.2.2.

For TEMPERATURE CONTROLLER - PRIMARY AIR (TIC 07.03) attend chapter 8.6.2.3.

For TEMPERATURE CONTROLLER - FLUE GAS (TIC 07.10) attend chapter 8.6.2.4.

To protect the air heater against overheating following safety equipment is provided:
1. Flue gas temperature (TSH 07.06) behind heater is limited by input of the nominal val-
ue in the burner management system.
2. Hot primary air temperature (TSH 07.04) at EGRON input is limited by input of the
nominal value in the burner management system.
3. Primary air MIN-flow is guaranteed and limited by differential pressure switch (PDSAL
07.08) by input of the nominal value in the burner management system. If the pri-
mary air volume decreases due to fan damages or other reasons resulting in lower dif-
ferential pressure over the air heater system the burner system is shut off by the dif-
ferential pressure switch.
If the primary air set temperature or pressure or volume or flue gas temperature or some
other safety limit of the burner management is exceeded an alarm is activated at the
PanelView 1000 and at the EGRON PLC and the burner system is shut off automatically.
Shortly – which means not more than 20 minutes – a maximum flue gas air heater outlet
temperature of 400°C at (TSH 07.06) is allowed.

The burner can be re-started when the air volume is increased and the differential pres-
sure is reached as listed in the LIMIT AND SET POINT LIST (see chapter 11.2.4).

Each safety shutdown caused by high temperatures requires a manual re-start of the
burner at side.
The flue gas from the burner leaves the combustion chamber with integrated air heater
and gets through the heat exchanger and the stack to atmosphere.

8.6.2 NORMAL- MODE

8.6.2.1 PLC – Controller Primary Air Pressure (PIC 13.21)

The Control of the Primary Air Pressure is executed with a controller inside the
BURNER CONTROL DCS.

The primary air pressure is measured in the hot air pipe to the spray drier (EGRON).

The speed of the primary air fan will be increased or decreased by the DCS-controller
output signal if the pressure of the primary air is increased respectively decreased from
the set point.

The set point range of the primary air pressure depends on the EGRON process values
and is between 000 and 000 mbar (Approval and fixing of these values at commission-
ing).

The actual set point is forced from EGRON CONTROL ROOM.

The DCS-controller part of the BURNER CONTROL is executed with external set point
guiding.

The controller (PIC 13.21) is active at EVERY AIR HEATER MODE.

At HEATING UP MODE the forced PRIMARY AIR VOLUME should be at MAXIMUM


flow at all times. The corresponding Pressure Set Point has to be selected accord-
ing to this volume.

Range of the Setting points look at LIMIT AND SET POINT LIST (see Chapter 11.2.4)
as part of this functional description and operating instruction.

8.6.2.2 Control of Flue Gas Temperature Combustion Chamber (TIT 07.14)

(Part of KEU TECHNICIAN during DRYING OUT at FIRST START UP and at FIRST
HEATING DOWN and at HEATING UP after DRYING OUT)

The combustion chamber temperature is controlled by the KEU TECHNICIAN. The fuel
and the combustion air control valves are opened respectively closed when the tempera-
ture is increased respectively decreased from the set point ramp.

For set point ramp look at the curve diagram in Chapter 8.6.2.3.1

8.6.2.3 PLC – Controller Primary Air Temperature (TIT 07.03)

The Control of the Primary Air Temperature is executed with a controller inside the
BURNER CONTROL DCS.

The primary air temperature is measured in the hot air pipe to the spray dryer (EGRON).

The output signal of the controller (TIC 07.13) is conducted to the fuel and to the combus-
tion air control valves Flap 01.06 and CV 01.10 at FG - mode and to Flap 01.06 and CV
01.22 at LFO - mode.

The fuel and the combustion control valves are opened respectively closed by the PLC-
controller output signal if the temperature of the primary air is increased respectively de-
creased from the set point.

The set point range of the primary air temperature depending on the process values is 393°C.

The PLC-controller part of the BURNER CONTROL is executed with external set point
guiding.
The actual set point is forced from EGRON CONTROL ROOM.

The PLC controller is active at NORMAL HEATING UP – MODE and at NORMAL -

8.6.2.4 PLC - Control Flue Gas Temperature (TIC 07.10)

The Control of the Flue Gas Temperature is executed with a controller inside the
BURNER CONTROL PLC.

The controller (TIC 07.10) is active at any air heater mode and is responsible for the flue
gas temperature control.

Set point of the flue gas temperature is 80°C at FG-mode.

Set point of the flue gas temperature is 120°C at LFO-mode.

The double flaps Flap 07.17 / FLAP 07.18 are controlled in such a position so that a cer-
tain part of primary air gets to the heat exchanger.

During standard operation the primary air is heated according to the fixed design load-
ings, according to the process parameters of the process data (see chapter 3.1).

8.6.3 SHUT- DOWN

The air heater plant is automatic mode designed with the possibility to shut-down with signal from
EGRON CONTROL ROOM. (attend chapter 8.2 and 8.3)

 It is possible to STOP the plant from EGRON CONTROL ROOM or LOCAL from the
BURNER CONTROL CABINET at site.

 At SHUT DOWN MODE (COOLING DOWN MODE) the burner capacity will be re-
duced to minimum.

 For shut-down time temperature curve of the air heater look at the chapter 8.6.2.3.1
and the chapter 8.6.2.3.2.

 At the end of the burner shut-down time the burner will be shut off.

 The BURNER COMBUSTION AIR FAN REMAINS IN SERVICE for additional


ventilation of the air heater by using a time- lag relay inside the burner control.
The adjusted time at the relay is approx. 20 MINUTES and will be fixed during
commissioning.

 The PRIMARY AIR FAN also has to REMAIN IN SERVICE for approx. 30 MINUTES to
cool the primary air heater after BURNER has been SHUT- OFF. The cooling time
has to be adjusted with a second time relay inside the burner control and will be
fixed during commissioning.

 Only if the air heater is cooled down it is allowed to open the cleaning lid at the
combustion chamber.

 Only if the cooling times of the combustion air fan and the primary air fan are finished
it is allowed to switch off the power supply at the main switches of the burner
control cabinet and the CUSTOMERS primary air MCC.

9 Maintenance
9.1 General checks and measures during productions

ATTENTION!
After first heating up to process temperature all flange connections
must be retightened as far as possible by the customer.
This procedure has to be done again after an operation time of 5 days.
After 500 h operating time the flange connections must be checked to tightness
by the customer.

 The plant has to be checked at least once per shift for external damages and proper
functioning of the safety devices.

 Check flame of the burner for irregularities like “LIFTING / PUMPING / PULSING”.

ATTENTION!
The glass of the inspection device must in no case be exposed to
constant temperature load of the combustion chamber.
Observation for a short time period only!
Damaged sight glasses must be changed at once!

 Pay attention to unusual noises and smell of fuel in the area of the burner.

9.2 Maintenance and inspection plan

9.2.1 In principle

 Keep the plant clean.

 Use only dry and oil-free compressed air for purging of the inspection glass. In this
plant primary air is used for purging the inspection glass.

ATTENTION!
Check the flame pattern through the inspection opening at least once a day.
Check that the flame is burning centrically and not touching the combustion
chamber wall at any point.
If the flame touches the combustion chamber, switch off the firing installation
at once to avoid serious damage to the combustion chamber cylinder.
Then check the firing installation and readjust the flame.
At the same time check the flue gas line for any soot deposits and clean them if
required.

 Maintenance and Inspection works as well as cleaning works must only be


executed, when the burner start is blocked in the EGRON CONTROL ROOM and
at the LOCAL BURNER CONTROL CABINET.

 The SUPPLY VOLTAGE 400 VAC has to be switched off with the main switch at
the LOCAL BURNER CONTROL CABINET.

 Attach label to the switchboard reading:

 Clean fuel and air filters according to the instructions in the technical data sheets.

 Observe the information of the technical data sheets of the components.

 Check condition of burner nozzles. If necessary clean the nozzles.

 Pressure switch and temperature limiter function to be checked.


Adjusted values have to be regulated up respective down until control is activated.
Thereafter reset to original value and compare with the start-up set value.
(Look at SET POINT and LIMIT VALUE LIST in chapter 11.2.4)

 Check flame detector and clean it.


Demount flame detector and clean it as well
Handle with care flame sensor is fragile!
The flame detector should be exchanged even after cleaning it if during operation the
flame
signal drops significantly under the data measured at commissioning
( In chapter 12 the flame scanner is described in detail).

 Check tightness check for correct functioning.


Generate artificial leakage by opening the screws of the impulse lines between tight-
ness
control unit and gap between valves.
Start the control.
The leakage tester must give an alarm signal.
Exchange tightness control unit in case of missing alarm and repeat the test.
When test has been finished the screws have to be tightened and check with leakage
spray.

 Check condition of the spark ignitor. Exchange if necessary.
