1. INTRODUCTION
The present document related to the maintenance of the accessories of gas turbines is a guide for the
End User’s maintenance Engineers.
The aim of this document is to give maintenance interval and recommendation for the gas turbine
accessories systems and their components.
The maintenance activities recommended in this guide are typical and do not pertain to any particular
plant equipment model.
Maintenance activities are mainly driven by periodical check up and routine inspections.
x Periodical check up are jobs to be carried out at predetermined frequencies like monthly, annually, or
during gas turbine inspections as combustion, hot gas path, major.
x Routine inspections are check up carried out more often like daily, weekly, in relation with gas
turbine operation. They are related to parameters read out and analysis, visual inspection, abnormal
noise, as explained in the Operation volume.
x Routine inspections may impact periodical maintenance activities and may shorten the frequencies
defined in the tables here below.
The present document applies for accessories of gas turbines frame 6B, 6C, 6FA, 9E.
2. SAFETY
The End User shall take appropriate steps to ensure that only workers who have received adequate
instruction shall have access to equipment. The End User shall ensure site safe work practices are
implemented and enforced (e.g. proper operator response action to control system alarms, energy
isolation procedures (lockout/tagout), personal protective equipment, permit space entry procedures,
posting of warning signs, training, Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS), etc.).
The End User shall ensure that site safe work practices integrate access permit, work permit and relevant
permits and procedures to cover all aspect of safety.
Please refer to Safety recommendation in tab Safety of the Operating and maintenance manual, to
residual risk summary and to Original Equipment Manufacturer literature.

MAINTENANCE
3. CONTENT OF TABLES.
Maintenance schedule and maintenance activities of each device of a single system are listed, system by
system, in the different tables below.
Some devices like pressure transducers, check valves, orifices, . . . , installed in different systems have
identical maintenance schedule and maintenance activities whatever the system they belong to. These
devices are grouped in the first table called “Standard devices”.
The tables are divided into several columns. The two first are:
Device: designation of the device,
Note: underlined device names are only for a specific gas turbine frame
Check / inspect: list the maintenance activities
The other columns tell how often a device or equipment should be inspected and whether or not the
turbine can be operating at the time of the inspection. The meaning of the letters used is:
D : Daily Inspection
W : Weekly Inspection
M : Monthly Inspection
Q : Quarterly Inspection
SA : Semi-annual Inspection
CI : Combustion Inspection
HGPI : Hot Gas Path Inspection
MI : Major Overhaul Inspection
O : Turbine Operating
S : Turbine Shutdown
The recommended maintenance activities, frequencies and turbine status are representative of an
average power plant installation and include both peaking and continuous operating stations. They are
not intended to cover all variations of equipment supplied and may depend upon station environment. In
some cases, a shutdown may be recommended solely as a precaution against possible injury to
maintenance personnel, because the location of the component or device is in a hazardous area.
As per GER 3620 maintenance activities are influenced by many factors like the type and quality of fuel,
the starting cycle, the power setting and duty application, the steam/water injection.
Maintenance interval requirement for below listed devices may also be impacted by those factors. Due to
enormous variety of operating conditions from a power plant to another, maintenance adjustment has
to be based on experience and observations made by the End User.
Lubrication frequency will vary, depending on turbine operating hours and ambient temperature. It is therefore
suggested to keep records of lubrication intervals to determine variances between periods listed on the
chart and those scheduled for a specific installation.
For all the devices listed here below, always refer to the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM)
technical literature / equipment publication for accurate information regarding maintenance
schedule and maintenance activities for each device.
