Addendums, corrections and notes


This document describes, from a user point of view, how to operate and maintain the GS500C incinerator.
The incinerator type is GS500C, but some of the drawings might have additional letter codes that
describe the extra equipment on your incinerator.

All TeamTec incinerators are made according to EC Type-Examination Certificate MED-B, and are
found to comply with the requirements in the following regulations/standards:
Annex A.1, item NO. A1/2.7 and Annex B, Module B in the Directive. Marpol 73/78 as amended, Annex
VI Regulation 16(2)(a), IMO Res. MEPC.76 (40).

Generally, for a design or type approval certificate, it is allowed to make minor modifications to the
equipment. Minor modifications are changes that will not affect the incinerators function or design. The
incinerator type is still the same, and all main functions are identical to the type approved unit and will be
covered by the certificates. The type stamped on the incinerator is the same as we have on the certificate,
but some of the drawings might have letter codes to describe the extra equipment (minor modification) on
your incinerator. All possible letter codes are:

Code Feature description


A Ampere meter for flue gas fan
B Diesel oil booster pump
C Standard - Computerized automation/control (PLC)
D Dual sludge tank
F Auto feeding of solid waste (Stoker, Shredder)
G Stirrer for solid waste
I Water injection
K Cooling of control cabinet
L Sludge tank level readout in display panel
M Flue gas fan motor heater
P Sludge transfer pump
R Roof mounted sluice

GARBAGE MANAGEMENT

The incinerator “10 commandments”

• Keep the incinerator chamber inlet outlet and burner parts clean. Inspect daily before start
in the morning, and clean as required.

• Do never throttle the air/steam needle valve more than ¾ turn closed. If the pressure
increases above green area, clean the sludge burner nozzle.

• Do never turn off the main power before the chamber temperature is down below 170°C.

• If experiencing any problem with high temperature in combustion chamber, flue gas or
control of sludge dosing, replace the dosing pump stator.

• Do not transfer sludge to the service tank during sludge burning in a single tank system
(can damage the refractory).

• As a minimum, heat the sludge over night, without starting the circulating pump. Next
morning drain off the free water and start the sludge program.

• Never load glass, lithium batteries or large quantities of spray cans in the incinerator –
nor large quantities of oily rags or filter cartridges. This may damage the flue gas fan.

• Inspect the cooling jacket every 6 months (open the cover plates) and clean as required
with steam or hot water.

• Read the instruction manual, and never change any settings unless instructed by TeamTec,
Norway

• In case of abnormal operation, contact TeamTec.

GS500CIC 15
INTRODUCTION

Garbage management
TeamTec recommend working out guidelines for an onboard garbage management plan.
Personnel responsible for operation of the incinerator shall be trained and capable of
implementing the guidance follows by the instruction manual.
Waste incineration on board sea going ships and offshore platforms is world wide regulated by
IMO MARPOL 73/78, RESOLUTION MEPC 76(40), STANDARD SPECIFICATION FOR
SHIPBOARD INCINERATORS, adopted on 25.september 1997, and IMO MARPOL ANNEX
VI REGULATION 16 and APPENDIX IV adopted on 26. September 1997.

Incineration of solid and liquid waste


In accordance with the above regulation the following solid and liquid waste can be burned in
an IMO certified shipboard incinerator:

Plastic, Cardboard, Wood


Rubber, Cloth, Oily Rags, Lub. Oil Filters,
Diesel Engine Scavenge Scraping
Paint Scraping
Food waste, etc.
Sludge Oil, Waste Lub. Oil
Hospital Waste, Female Hygienic Binds
Destruction of Contaminated water

Solid and liquid waste that is prohibited to be burned


Material, which contains more than traces of HEAVY METAL and of refined petroleum
products containing halogen compounds is prohibited to be incinerated. Light bulbs contain
heavy metal and are prohibiting incinerating.
Under shipboard operational waste the following materials have a density placing them in the
category of HEAVY METAL:

MERCURY
LEAD
NICKEL
VANADIUM
ZINC

IMO Annex VI regulation 16 prohibits incineration on ship of certain products, such as


contaminated packaging materials and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs).
Do not incinerate metals as soda and food can plates, flatware, serving spoons/tray,
hardware (nuts & bolts), structural pieces, wire rope, chains etc, glass such as bottles, jars,
drinking glasses etc., flammable materials such as bottles or cans containing flammable
liquids or gasses and aerosol cans. Do not incinerate heavy load with plastics or bulk food
waste. Read instruction/warning label on garbage door.
Loading of glass will result in a rock hard slag, which is difficult to remove from the refractory
lining.

GS500CIC 17
GARBAGE MANAGEMENT

Solid Waste handling


GS500C is intended for incineration/burning of sludge and solid waste onboard ships or other
marine installations. For batch loading the incinerator capacity is 400l/charge IMO class 2
wastes.

Class 2 refuse, consists of approximately even mixture of rubbish and garbage by weight. This
type of waste is common to passenger ships occupancy, consisting of up to 50% moisture, 7%
incombustible solids and has a heating value of about 10.000 kJ/kg as fired.

Be aware that plastics has high calorific value, about 36.000 kJ/kg and must only be incinerated
in small amounts at the same time.

Batch loading
Do not attempt to clean the combustion chamber without activating the slugging mode on the
touch screen display, to prevent injury to personnel due to insufficient ventilation.

Each morning, providing that the combustion chamber temperature is lower that 170°C, slag
and ashes should be removed. Partly burnt garbage shall remain in the chamber. This garbage
will be fully incinerated at the next sequence of incineration. The air inlet openings in the
bottom of the combustion chamber must be regularly cleaned. This is important in order to let
the combustion air come into the chamber.

Load the combustion chamber with garbage of type IMO class 2. If high calorific garbage is
loaded, a smaller quantity must be loaded per charge.

Sluice feeding
If sluice is installed, solid waste can be fed into the 125 litre sluice at temperatures between
700/900°C and 1050°C depending on program running. Sluice is available at 700°C running
solid waste program, and 900°C running Solid waste/Sludge. A green feeding push button
indicates that sluice feeding is ready when lit. Fill the trash in a garbage paper bag, open the
sluice lid/sluice door and put the bag into the sluice. Do not jam the trash bag into the sluice or
overfill it. Close the lid / sluice door and rotate the sluice by the handle on the right side of the
sluice. The maximum waiting time between each time the sluice can be operated is 210 seconds
if temperature is above 750°C, or if temperature is below 750°C the temperature must be above
the temperature the sluice was activated. After the waiting time has elapsed, the push button
lights up again and the sluice is ready for a new load. Check out operator panel sluice menu for
information about the waste burning.

Sludge Capacity
The incinerator is certified according to MEPC 76(40) which determines the sludge to contain
20% water.
A high water content up to 50% water content will result in a higher capacity than what is
mentioned in the certificate. As an example, the sludge with 40% water content will have lower
calorific value than IMO sludge, hence higher hydraulic capacity.

A water content higher than 50% requires a pilot burner (support burner). This reduces the
available capacity for burning of sludge.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

Technical description
Overall system function description
The TeamTec Incinerator type GS500C is designed for on board incineration of ship's waste oil, solid refuse
and destruction of bilge water. The system consists of 5 main parts:

• Combustion chamber with diesel oil burner, sludge burner, pilot fuel heater and electric control panel.
• Flue gas fan with flue gas damper
• Sludge service tank with circulating pump and heater.
• Sludge settling tank with filling pump and heater (Optional).
• Water injection (Optional).

Water injection (Optional)


The incinerator is equipped with a separate water injection unit including a frequency controlled water dosage
pump. The purpose of this pump is to inject water, containing small quantities of oil remnants, into the
combustion chamber by a special designed TeamTec nozzle system.

When burning sludge with injected water, the sludge burning capacity increases, NOx in flue gas duct reduces
and it is an easy way to get rid of problem water. Dumping oily water directly into the sea can harm marine life,
and is illegal. Various ports are facing new local regulations on ship emissions, including discharges of ballast
water, gray water, bilge water, and deck runoff, among others. Disposal of the contaminated water in the
incinerator is an easy and effective solution to a complex problem.

Combustion chamber
The combustion chamber consists of two cylindrical chambers with connecting openings. The right chamber is
for loading solids. The trash is ignited by burner in the chamber. The combustion chamber is equipped with an
inspection door and a ash door, which can be opened only while the incinerator is not burning. The control
system will prevent the doors from being opened before the set temperature for cooling is reached.

The flue gas outlet is located at the top of the left chamber for most efficient use of the flames. The flames
from the burners follow a corkscrew pattern towards the bottom and continue rotation upwards in the centre of
the combustion chamber. Remnants of particulate matters in the gas flow are neutralised by the burner, making
the combustion ecologically safe. As the fumes exits the chamber, cooling air drawn from the lower part of the
casing is mixed with the flue gas to bring the temperature down to approx. 330°C before it pulled out by the
flue gas fan and blown out the stack to atmosphere.

The burning process is monitored by the PLC and scanned by a photo resistor in the burner. The temperatures
are also monitored/regulated automatically by the PLC control system.
Two sight glasses are equipped, one at the end of the incinerator, for the operator to be able to inspect the
amount of trash in the chamber and the function of the system, and one in the inspection door .

The combustion chamber is of steel construction, lined with specially designed refractory blocks. Between the
steel and refraction there is a 50mm layer of insulation. The refractory material is made of a low cement/high
alumina quality being slag resistant and having very good thermal shock resistance. A double steel casing with
a cooling air jacket forms the outside of the combustion chamber.

The combustion chamber is equipped with a, three-stage diesel oil burner and a steam/air atomising nozzle for
sludge burning. Under the burner assembly, a bracket/drip tray for sludge burning equipment is mounted.

The Diesel Oil burner has 3 stages, automatically controlled by the PLC. In addition there are four stages for
sludge burning, using steam or compressed air for atomising. The sludge burner allows particles up to 4 mm to
pass through. The D.O. burner is monitored by the PLC and has a built in primary air fan and diesel oil pump.

The main electrical control panel is normally fitted on the incinerator and it contains circuit breakers, starters,
frequency inverters, PLC and operator panel. The electric panels are built according to international standards
for marine equipment. The operator panel, which is located at the front of the control panel, has a LCD display
touch screen for selecting burner program modes and for monitoring the burning process.

GS500CIC 29
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

Flue gas fan


The purpose of the flue gas fan is transportation of the flue gas from the combustion chamber and the fan
creates negative pressure in the furnace. The same fan draws ambient air through the cooling jacket on the
combustion chamber and the hot gas from the furnace is diluted with the cooling air at the flue gas outlet on the
combustion chamber in order to reduce the temperature below 350°C. The cooling air drawn trough the cooling
jacket will keep the surface temperature of the combustion chamber lower than 15°C above ambient
temperature

Sludge service tank with heater


The TeamTec Sludge tank is meant to function as a daily service tank for sludge to the incinerator. A heater,
controlled by a thermostat, will keep the sludge temperature around the set point (80 to 90°C). (With
temperatures above 60°C, regulations require tank to be insulated or guarded with metal screen).

Drain valves (sample points) are mounted on the tank to check the sludge level in the tank. A level transmitter
on the tank provides PLC to generate a animated tank level readout on operator panel (display on incinerator
control panel), and right amount of sludge burned.

A circulating pump is mounted on the tank. The pump transports the sludge to the incinerator and a return line
to the tank is provided, a god mixing of the sludge and water is guaranteed. A low level switch on the tank will
stop the incinerator, the circulating pump and heating when the level has reached a minimum. An indicating
light for heating is placed on the junction box on the tank.

Do not transfer sludge to the service tank during sludge burning

Sludge settling tank with heater (optional).


The TeamTec Settling tank is meant to function as a daily tank to heat, separate and drain water from the
sludge. A transfer pump can be used to fill the tank, and be connected to the "high level" switch, which stops
the pump when the tank is full.

A heater, controlled by a thermostat, will keep the sludge temperature around the set point (80 to 90°C). (With
temperatures above 60°C, regulations require tank to be insulated or guarded with metal screen).

Drain valves (sample points) are mounted on the tank to check the sludge level in the tank. The lowest one is
meant to use for draining off the water. A level transmitter on the tank provides PLC to generate a tank level
readout on operator panel (display on incinerator control panel).

A filling pump is mounted on the tank. The pump transports the sludge to the sludge service tank. A low level
switch on the tank will stop the filling pump and heating when the level has reached a minimum. It is not
possible to transfer sludge to the service tank during sludge burning

An indicating light for heating is placed on the junction box on the tank.

Water tank (Optional).


As an option to use the ships bilge/grey water tank, it is possible use a water service tank. The Water tank can
be filled from either the bilge holding tank or the gray water tank. This system is utilizing the existing water
discharge pumping system in order to fill a water tank to be located adjacent to the incinerator.

The water tank has filling, overflow and ventilation connection. The incinerator has frequency controlled water
dosing pump unit, with suction lift at 3500mm. The water is connected to the incinerator with DN 15 flange
connection.

The water tank has two level switches. A high level switch to stop the filling pump and a low level switch, with
dual contact set, to start the filling pump and to stop the water injection if switch is activated for more than two
minutes. This is to prevent the water dosage pump to run dry. A suitable tank is available from TeamTec.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

Sludge control
Introduction
The automatic sludge control logic is designed for burning a maximum amount of sludge, consuming a
minimum amount of diesel, and maintaining a combustion chamber temperature above 870°C (CCT stop burner
diesel oil), see operator panel - settings sludge program page 2/4. Sludge quality is an important factor for the
sludge burning process. The system is capable to handling sludge with a high content of water, but this might
however result in a higher consumption of diesel oil.

Temperature limits
680°C Start sludge burner.

640°C Temperature decrease to this level stop sludge burner and increase sludge quality
counter with 2(see slugde quality control Page 30).

660°C Temperature decrease to this level, after temperature have been above 690°C,
decrease the sludge dosage pump rpm with 70/401 and increase sludge quality counter
with 2.

690°C Temperature increase to this level increase the sludge dosage pump rpm with 70/402.

700°C Alarm level for low combustion chamber temperature, if combustion chamber
temperature has been above 850°C. Sluice is available in Solid waste program.

840°C Starts a diesel support burner in addition to the condition at 870°C and increase the
sludge quality counter with 2. Decrease the sludge dosage pump rpm with 140/1003.

870°C Temperature allowing burning sludge alone. Temperature increases to this level an
increase of the sludge dosage pump rpm with 140/1004.

890°C Above this temperature the sludge quality counter will step down by one every
minute.

900°C Sluice is available in Sludge & Solid waste program.

1000°C Temperature increase to this level and above, decrease the sludge dosage pump rpm
with 4 rpm every 30 second if Sludge & Solid waste program is running.

1050°C Sluice is not available in Sludge & Solid waste or Solid waste program.

1050°C Water injection control temperature. Water amount injected to combustion chamber
will increase if CCT is above this level, and decrease if CCT below this level.

1110°C Water injection starts.

1150°C Temperature increase to this level and above, decreases the sludge dosage pump rpm
with 4 rpm every 30 second.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

Burner stage
• STAGE NO 3 Diesel oil nozzles no. 1 + 2.

• STAGE NO 4 Diesel oil nozzle no. 1 and sludge.

• STAGE NO 5 Diesel oil nozzle no. 2 and sludge.

• STAGE NO 6 Diesel oil nozzles no 1 + 2 and sludge

• STAGE NO 7 Sludge burner alone.

Control
At first start up a sludge burner program, the sludge burner start when combustion chamber temperature rise
above 680°C, the operator panel will indicate burner stage 5, the sludge dosage pump will be given start speed
150/2005 rpm, and will run at this speed for 60 seconds. During the 60 seconds, burner step 5 will be fixed.

Figure: Sludge quality control.

Assuming the sludge is of a good quality the temperature will start to rise. If the temperature raise is >=0°C
over 30 seconds, the sludge dosing pump increase 2 rpm. There will be a sampling of temperature each 30 sec.
and provided there is a temperature raise, a new step of 2 rpm will take place.

If the sludge quality is still good, the sludge dosing pump will be given a new step increase of 70/1406 rpm
when temperature rises above 690°C. The burner stage will be 4. When temperature raise above 870°C the
sludge dosing pump will again be given a new step increase 140/1007 rpm and the burner stage will be 7.

If the sludge contain too much water or chemicals, the temperature is likely to fall below 640°C and the sludge
dosing pump stop. Burner will change to stage 3, and the sludge quality counter will increase with 2 (after an
attempt to stage 5). When temperature rises above 680°C the sludge burner will start again. The burner stage
will then depend of sludge quality number. The sludge quality number is an indication of the quality of the
sludge. A high sludge quality number indicates a sludge with high water content, and burner will use more
diesel oil.

The low temperature alarm, 700°C, will first be activated if temperature has been above 850°C.

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

Program description
Overall program function description
The TeamTec Incinerator type GS500C is controlled by a Programmable logic controller (PLC) witch handles
both the operating functions and the alarm system. The Human Machine Interface (HMI) is a touch screen
operator terminal. The operator terminal allows the user to view and monitor the process and to give input to
the process by choosing appropriate program to the desired task.

The Incinerator has 5 programs to select from; “Sludge”, ”Sludge and Water39”, “Solid waste & Sludge”,
“Solid Waste” and “Slag”. Some functions are general and controlled in the same way regardless of choice of
program.

General
The diesel oil burner heats up the incinerator. The burner runs in different steps, each program calculates the
required burner step and the burner responds accordingly by controlling the diesel oil valves, the burner air
damper the burner motor and the ignition electrodes.

The airflow through the burner is adjusted by the burner damper to different air flow at different steps on the
burner. The damper opening is corrected for the actual pressure in the combustion chamber (CCP) and the
actual speed of the sludge dosing pump (SDP)

The burner has the following steps:

0 - Burner stopped.

1 – Nozzle 1

2 – Nozzle 2

3 – Nozzle 1 and 2

4 – Nozzle 1 and sludge.

5 – Nozzle 2 and sludge.

6 – Nozzle 1 and 2 and sludge.

7 – Sludge only

39
Only available if water injection is installed

GS500CIC 61
PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

The actual burner step is displayed in the operator terminal.

Flue Gas Fan


The flue gas damper (FGD) controls the combustion chamber pressure (CCP). If frequency controlled flue gas
fan is installed, the flue gas fan (FGF) speed controls the speed, the combustion chamber pressure (CCP)
changes, and thereby also alter the amount of combustion air drawn into the combustion chamber from the

The chosen program will call for different Combustion chamber pressure set points at different conditions and
stages of the program.

Function Sludge program


The incinerator is designed and approved to burn sludge according to IMO specifications. See technical
specifications for information about sludge and quantities to be handled by your incinerator.

The incinerator starts heating up using the diesel oil burner. The diesel oil burner is controlled in different steps.
See description of burner for details.

For operation instruction see page 94.

After sludge program is started there is two criteria that needs to be fulfilled before incinerating starts; Sludge
temperature above 80°C and Diesel oil temperature above 60°C and CCP must be -35mmWC.

When the combustion chamber temperature (CCT) has reached set point “min CCT for run Sludge”(680°C), the
steam line will flush for 10 seconds to drain out condensate water before starting up the sludge burner. The
sludge dosage pump (SDP) starts. If the temperature increases after 60 seconds, the diesel oil burner reduces
“CCT inc sludge – dec diesel oil”(690°C). If temperature decreases below 640°C, sludge burning stops and
retries with a higher burnerstep at “min CCT for run Sludge”(680°C) if sludge quality counter is above the
initial value for increasing sludge burner step. At set point “CCT stop burner diesel oil” (870°C), the sludge
program requires burner step 7 from the burner program and runs sludge only if selected in the sludge settings.

62 GS500CIC
PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

The sludge dosage pump (SDP) is controlled by a frequency inverter.

Sludge dosage pump (SDP) will increase sludge dosing if combustion chamber temperature (CCT) is equal or
rising, until combustion chamber temperature (CCT) has reached set point ”Max CCT run Sludge” (1150°C) or
flue gas temperature (FGT) raises above “Max FGT – start adjust SDP RPM (340°C). The control system will
then adjust sludge dosage pump (SDP) to keep combustion temperature (CCT) and flue gas temperature below
maximum setpoints.

Low sludge tank will result in a normal stop of the program or alarm if it is selected in alarm settings. When
sludge burner stops, the sludge solenoid valve closes the sludge while the steam/air solenoid flushes the sludge
nozzle until the temperature in the combustion chamber is lower than 300°C in order to avoid building up of
coke on the burner tip.

The temperature and pressure in the combustion chamber is controlled by calculations in the control system.

The calculation involves:


Set points for temperature in chamber (CCT).
Set points for pressure in chamber (CCP).
Set points for diesel oil burner.
Set points for sludge temperature.
Set points for sludge dosage pump (SDP).
Actual combustion chamber temperature (CCT).
Actual combustion chamber pressure (CCP).
Actual flue gas temperature (FGT).
Actual speed sludge dosage pump (SDP).
Actual sludge temperature.

The calculations controls:

1 – Combustion chamber pressure (CCP).

2 – Combustion chamber temperature (CCT).

3 – Flue gas temperature (FGT).

By adjusting:

1 – Flue gas fan damper(FGD)/ Flue gas speed.

2 – Diesel oil burner steps

5 – Speed sludge dosage pump (SDP).

All checks of temperature are made in time intervals. After each change in state or function, further adjustments
are not made until time interval has elapsed.

At the end of each time interval (30sec), the change in combustion chamber temperature (CCT) is calculated.
Depending of temperature raise (or drop), adjustments are made, according to calculations, to components that
will influence the combustion chamber temperature (CCT), and the present combustion chamber temperature
(CCT) is stored.

GS500CIC 63
PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

At the end of next time interval new calculations are made with reference to stored and actual combustion
chamber temperature (CCT) and components adjusted again.

Combustion chamber pressure:


At the start of sludge program, the initial combustion chamber pressure (CCP) (app. -35 mmWC) must be
reached in order to start burner.

The CCP set point is controlled by the combustion chamber temperature (CCT), flue gas temperature (FGT)
and burner step.

Function Sludge program with water Injection


The “Sludge and Water” program is identical to the sludge program except for the addition to water injection.
If “Sludge and Water” is active the water dosage pump (WDP) is started when combustion chamber
temperature (CCT) reach “CCT enable bilge”(1110°C).

The control system will adjust the sludge dosage pump (SDP) to keep the combustion chamber temperature
(CCT) at “CCT max. for water injection”(1050°C). The maximum water dosage pump (WDP) RPM starts at
200/600 rpm and increases by “Increase RPM WDP” (5 rpm) every 60 second, until “Max. RPM WDP”
(600/1200) RPM is reached. Water dosage pump (WDP) RPM is controlled as a function of the combustion
chamber temperature (CCT), see illustration.

If combustion chamber temperature (CCT) drops below “CCT min. for water injection”(840°C), the water
dosage pump (WDP) stops.

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

Function solid waste program

Note: All references to settings and values are for explanation only. The values on your incinerator or
application may be different.

The program assumes a batch load of waste in the incinerator and will have initial speed and pressure set points
to facilitate enough combustion air to handle this (CCP=28 mmWC, burnerstep 1).

All checks of temperature are made in time interval. After each change in state or function, further adjustments
are not made until time interval has elapsed.

At the end of each time interval (40 sec), the change in combustion chamber temperature (CCT) is calculated.
Depending of temperature raise (or drop), adjustments are made, according to calculations, to components that
will influence the combustion chamber temperature (CCT), and the present combustion chamber temperature
(CCT) is stored.

At the end of next time interval new calculations are made with reference to stored and actual combustion
chamber temperature (CCT) and components adjusted again according to tabular below.

Delta CCT = Temperature rise after 40 seconds.

The diesel oil burner heats up the incinerator. The burner starts and runs in 3 steps (burner step 1-3). Change in
burner steps are made in time intervals as described above.

When combustion chamber temperature (CCT) reaches set point 1000 °C, the diesel oil burner reduces one step,
and further increase in combustion chamber temperature (CCT), reduces burner to step 1.

At the end of time interval (see description above), corrections are made to combustion chamber pressure
(CCP), according to calculations involving a combination of actual temperature in combustion chamber (CCT)
and the temperature raise (or drop) since last correction.

Combustion chamber pressure is also controlled by the flue gas temperature (FGT). At flue gas temperature
(FGT) above set point (330 °C), the control system overrides calculations made in time interval (as described
above).

GS500CIC 65
PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

Function Solid waste and sludge program


The Solid Waste and sludge Program heats up the combustion chamber according to the solid waste program
and when the Incinerator is ready to burn sludge the functions of the sludge program is applied. The maximum
combustion chamber temperature is then reduced to app. 1000°C in order to enable the operator to feed solid
waste (if a sluice is fitted).

Function Sluice operation


Solid Waste program:
Sluice feeding is available at CCT above 700°C and below 1050°C. When sluice is
installed, an information display will be visible in the main display. This describes the
sluice status when using the sluice.

When green push button on sluice is lit, load the sluice with waste, close sluice door.
When the sluice is rotated, the Combustion chamber pressure (CCP) will increase to
“Set CCP sluice operation”(-32 mmWC) and burnerstep 2 is active. When sluice is
activated, combustion chamber pressure will be unchanged until 210 seconds has
elapsed, or combustion chamber temperature (CCT) after 60 seconds, has decreased
below combustion chamber temperature when sluice was activated. All this
information is available in sluice display. This display window also shows if waste has
high or low calorific value.

If waste is loaded when Combustion chamber temperature is below 750°C, and low

calorific waste is detected, sluice program is


deactivated until Combustion chamber temperature
has increased above combustion chamber temperature
when sluice was activated.

Solid waste and sludge program:


Sluice feeding is available at CCT above 900°C and
below 1050°C. When sluice is available, an
information display will be visible in the main display.
This describes the sluice status when using the sluice.

When green push button on sluice is lit, load the


sluice with waste, close sluice door and rotate the
sluice. . When the sluice is rotated, the Combustion
chamber pressure (CCP) will increase to “Set CCP
sluice operation”(-40 mmWC) and reduces sludge
dosage pump (SDP) with 30 rpm. When sluice is
activated, Combustion chamber pressure will be unchanged until 210 seconds has elapsed, or Combustion
chamber temperature after 60 seconds, has decreased below combustion chamber temperature when sluice was
activated. All this information is available in sluice display. This display window also shows if waste has high
or low calorific value.

MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTION

Maintenance instruction
Preventive maintenance
Preventive maintenance periods are defined in the
control system apart from the daily checks. The
control system counts the running hours of the diesel
oil burner. Each group is connected to a list of service
points required to perform. The preventive
maintenance is divided into four groups: Weekly,
monthly, 6 monthly and yearly. Based on experience
the intervals correspond to respectively 100h, 400h,
2500h and 5000h programmed with a service interval
“Hours service”. When the actual running hours since
last performed maintenance exceeds the service
interval the control system calls for service by a pop
up screen.

6 months and yearly service banner will appear, regardless of running hours, when 180/365 days has elapsed.

It is then required to follow the appropriate procedure. When the maintenance has been carried out press
“Done” and “Hours since last service” is reset. If not logged in as user “usr”, values on different setup screens

Disassembly, repair, replacement and reassembly


Flue gas fan
Ref. Flue gas fan assembly drawing

To replace the impeller:


Disassembly
1. Switch off the power and make sure it cannot be switched on again while the unit is under
repair.
2. Disconnect the electrical cables to the motor.
3. Remove the 16 bolts pos. 17 (dwg. 1007012) on the cover (motor end of the fan housing).
4. Remove the 4 bolts pos. 33 for the bearing stand (fan base).
5. Slide the bearing stand assembly backwards from the fan housing till the impeller is clear of
the housing.
6. Carefully turn the bearing stand assembly to get access to the impeller.
7. The impeller is attached to the shaft with a taper lock hub. On the hub, unscrew the two
hexagon screws. By inserting one of the screws in the third hole (the one not in use), the
impeller will come off the hub when the screw is screwed in.

Repair
It is not advisable to repair an impeller unless one has access to balancing equipment.

Replacement
No special procedure is required except for cleaning the shaft and the hub before the hub is
placed on the shaft.

Reassembly
Proceed as for disassembly, in opposite manner.

To adjust the clearance between impeller and fan house


1. After working with the fan always check the proper end clearance between impeller and fan
housing.
2. Proceed as follows:
3. Unscrew the top part of both bearings.
4. Unscrew the nuts for the bearing hubs. Now the shaft is loose.
5. Pull the shaft out as far as possible. Put an ink mark on the shaft against the back bearing.
6. Push the shaft in as far as possible. Put an ink mark on the shaft against the same bearing.
7. Pull the shaft half way out so the clearance on both side of the impeller is identical (approx.
10 mm) and secure the nuts on the bearing hubs.
8. Replace the bearing tops.

72 GS500CIC
MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTION

Performance verification
1. Run the fan in cold and hot condition and listen for noise.
2. Inspect that the fan is able to provide at least 100 mm WC negative pressure in the
combustion chamber. (Cold gas.)

Mounting of bearings with tapered bore


Shaft, hub and Taper-Lock bushings must be complete clean before mounting. These elements
are normally supplied light oiled.
At mounting, make sure the tightening torque is of correct level.

The mounting torque for the various hubs shall be as shown in this table:

Bushing type Set screw type Torque in NM Allen wrench Fan type
type

1210 / ø30 3/8” x 5/8” 20 5,0 DN 200


1610 / ø40 3/8” x 5/8” 20 5,0 DN 250
2012 / ø50 7/16” x 7/8” 31 6,0 DN 300/350
2517 / ø60 ½” x 1” 49 6,0 DN 400

For re-lubrication of the bearings, the caps must be demounted. The housing base and cap are
matched during manufacture and are not interchangeable. To prevent mixing, the same
consecutive number is marked on the cap and base of each individual housing.

The bearings are mounted with an adaptor sleeve. The bearings have a small internal clearance
and an accurate mounting is very important. When the bearing is properly mounted, the outer
ring can be easily turned, but there should be a slight resistance when the ring is swivelled out.
When mounting a new bearing to the fan’s shaft, the following procedure should be followed:
Before mounting the threads of the nut and the side face of the nut witch is about the bearing
should be greased and the outside diameter of the sleeve should be lightly oiled. The bearing is
then pushed on to the sleeve and the nut screwed on by hand. Check that the bearing is correctly
located on the shaft. Use a hook spanner and turn the nut an angle of 90°. By turning the nut
through this given angle of 90° the bearing will be pressed up on the tapered seating of the
sleeve. Re-position the hook spanner and apply a light hammer blow to the spanner. The bearing
will straighten up on its seating and is correctly fastened to the shaft. Lock the nut but bending
down one of the tabs on the locking washer. The residual clearance of the bearing should be
checked.

energised and the Process picture will show in the display.

Slagging
1. Check that there are no flames in the incinerator.
2. Push the "SLAG" key, the flue gas fan starts and flue gas damper will open. The
temperature (CCT) must be below 170°C (+50 hysteresis).
3. Open the ash door and remove ashes and slag, partly burned cans, can remain. These will
burn out eventually.
NOTE! Combustion air inlet openings at "floor" level must be cleaned.
This is important for a free airflow to the combustion chamber.

Solid Waste
1. Fill the combustion chamber half full with waste (max 400l)
NOTE: The Solid waste program start up sequence assumes a batch load. If the incinerator
is to be heated up without a batch load, choose the sludge program.
2. Close the door.
3. Push the key "START" and choose "SOLID WASTE" from the menu. The flue gas fan will
start and the flue gas damper will control the pressure in the chamber. If there are conditions
not met required for starting the incinerator, the operator panel will display a message
explaining the condition.
4. When the key "STOP" is pushed, the burner will stop, and the cooling down sequence
starts.
5. When the temperature in the combustion chamber has decreased to 170°C, the flue gas fan
will stop and door locks energized.
6. Sluice will be available to use when CCT reaches 700°C.

Sludge
1. Fill up the sludge tank and activate the heater. This is done by the pressing the heater
symbol on the operator panel. Choose start heater and the heater symbol will change colour
to indicate that the heater is on and the temperature is controlled locally by the thermostat
2. Drain off water from the settling tank. (The sludge should be settled overnight before water
is drained off) . Remember, longer settling time, better settling!
3. Start the filling pump by pressing the pump symbol and choose start pump. The symbol will
change colour to green to indicate that the pump is running. The pump will stop
automatically if the service tank level is high or the settling tank level is low.
4. Start the service tank circulation pump by pressing the pump symbol and choose start pump.
The symbol will change colour to green to indicate that the pump is running. Check the
sludge pressure on the pressure indicator to be in the range of 0.2 bar, adjust if required,

GS500CIC 91
OPERATION INSTRUCTION

using the by regulation valve. Run the circulation pump for at least 1 hour prior to burning
sludge!
5. Check the atomising -air /-steam supply pressure to be 6 - 8 bar. If steam is used, the
condensate must be drained off by use of the valve located at sludge equipment drip tray.

6. Push the key "START" and choose "SLUDGE" from the menu. The flue gas fan will start
and the flue gas damper control the pressure in the chamber. If there are conditions not met
required for starting the incinerator, the operator panel will display a message explaining
the condition.
7. The manual regulating valve for air / steam atomising located at sludge equipment drip tray
should be from ¾ to 1 turn open. The pressure should be shown in the upper half of the
green area (3.3 bar or 48 PSI) when the sludge burner/nozzle is clean. If pressure rises, do
NOT adjust the valve, but clean the sludge burner.
8. If the low level in sludge tank, or the key "STOP" is pushed, the burner will stop, and the
cooling down sequence starts.
9. When the temperature in the combustion chamber has decreased to 170°C the flue gas fan
will stop and door locks will be energized.

Solid Waste Sludge


1. Make settling according to the routine described in the sludge program.
2. Follow the Solid waste procedure, but choose “Solid Waste Sludge” program instead of
“Solid Waste” program.
3. Sluice will be available to use when CCT reaches 900°C.

Sludge and Water


1. Make sure the manual valves in the bilge water system are open.
2. Make sure there are water available and that the water tank is filled with water.
3. Follow the sludge procedure, but choose “Sludge and Water” program instead of “sludge”
program.
4. The manual regulating valve for air / steam atomising located at water equipment drip tray
should be from ¾ to 1 turn open. The pressure should be shown in the upper half of the
green area (3.3 bar or 48 PSI) when the water injection nozzle is clean. If pressure rises, do
NOT adjust the valve, but clean the water injection nozzle.

OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS

Emergency stop
In the incinerator room.
Turn the main switch at the control panel "OFF".

Outside the incinerator room.


Activate the emergency stop. (The switch normally requires manual reset).

When emergency stop is used, or at black out.


Warning: If the combustion chamber temperature is above 220°C, it is important to start the
flue gas fan as soon as possible in order not to damage the incinerator by accumulated heat in
the refractory lining. If setting “Auto start of FGF after emergency stop” is set to “off”, a
manual restart of Flue gas fan is needed. This is done by pressing “Stop” button.

NOTE! Careful heating-up and cooling-


down is required for preventing
damage to the refractory.

Emergency generator
If the emergency generator is running starts running, the incinerator stops burner, and running
cooling program if CCT is above 220°C. An indication in the operator display will be visible
saying “Incinerator not ready – Emergency power”. When emergency generator is running no
program can be started. This is done to save energy consumption on the emergency generator.

Air adjustment.

The Burner damper motor is analogue, and will open the damper proportionally to the control voltage applied
by the control system. The only two checks necessary is Closed position and that it operates freely.

To check that the damper is closed make sure that the damper blade is vertical to the opening when the control
system shows 0% opening (after power up, flue gas fan not running).

To check that the damper operates freely, wind up the actuator by using a 4mm hex key on the top of the
damper motor, then release and observe that the damper closed by the spring action.

APPENDIX D

Appendix D: Oil pump


The oil pump incorporates a regulating valve with cut-off function.

Applications
• Light and medium oil
• Nozzle flow up to 110 l/h (2850 rpm, 5 cSt, 10 bar)
• Normally associated with in-line solenoid valve.
• One or two-pipe system

Pump operating principle


The gear-set draws oil from the tank through the built-in filter and
transfers it to the valve that regulates the oil pressure to the nozzle
line. All oil, which does not go through the nozzle line, will be
dumped through the valve back to the return line. The valve also as
a cut-off and bleed function as follows: Figure 2

Bleed
• Two pipe operation
During starting period when the gear-set speed is increasing, all the oil passes through a
special flat on the piston, back to the return.
Once the speed reaches a certain value and the flow can no longer pass through this flat,
then the pressure increases rapidly overcoming the valve spring force and opens the valve

Cut-off:
During the stop sequence, the gear-set speed slows down and the valve closes when the gear-set capacity is
lower than the flow.
The cut -on and cut-off speed depends on the set pressure.

Pump dimensions

Pipe dimensions
The tables below give the maximum length (in meters) of suction line as function of 3 variables:

• Lift between fuel unit and tank (H).


• Nozzle capacity.
• Pipe diameter (d)
For normal atmospheric pressure (sea level) and 0.45 bar vacuum.
Only mentioned diameters can be used, bigger pipes are not suitable.
The length indicated (intersection of horizontal lines and columns) assumes the fitting of 4 right
angle bends, 1 stop valve, 1 non return valve. If additional restrictions exist, the length must be
reduced accordingly.
From these tables, the maximum length for other viscosity's can be calculated by simple ratio of
viscosities i.e., multiply the length shown in the table by 20 and divide by the value of the new
viscosity in cSt.

114 OIL PUMP


APPENDIX D

The inlet and return pressures must not exceed 1.5 bar.
The vacuum must not be more than 0.45 bar to prevent air separation from oil.
It is recommended to use a separate filter upstream of the pump.
The pump is to be used with cylindrical fitting or conical fittings as appropriate and sealing washers. Other
sealants are not recommended.

Start up
Check that the sense of rotation for pump and motor are the same (an arrow is stamped on the pump body).
In order to purge pumps used on 1 pipe systems, loosen one of the high pressure connections. On 2 pipe
systems, purging is automatic.

Pressure regulation
Remove end cap nut from pump for access to pressure stetting screw. Turning the regulator screw clockwise
increases the pressure.

Systematic maintenance
1. Check the stop valve and in line filters.
2. Check the pump filter.
This filter should be cleaned with a soft brush and fuel oil.
Each time, the cover gasket should be changed.
3. Check the tightness of all couplings and unused plugs.
4. Check the shaft coupling.
5. Check the pump pressure.
Fit a pressure gauge in the fitting provided and run the pump in normal manner.
If the pressure required cannot be obtained, check that the pump is completely purged. If
air bubbles are found in the fuel, check all connections for tightness.
6. Check the pump vacuum.
Fit a vacuum gauge in fitting provided and run the pump in the normal manner, making sure
to fully purge the pump.
The vacuum should not exceed 0.45 bar. If this is the case, check condition of all
components (non return valve, stop valves, filters....).
If the pump does not suck correctly, check for any leaks in the line by retightening all
fittings.

Faults – Causes – Remedies


Drive does no start, no fault displayed
• If the display does not light up, check the power to the drive and check the wiring of input AI1.

• The Assignment of the “Fast stop” or “Freewheel stop” functions will prevent the drive from starting
if the corresponding logic inputs are nor powered up. The ATV12 then displays “nSt” in freewheeel
stop mode and “FSt” in stop mode. This is normal since these functions are active at zero so that the
drive will be stopped safely if there is a wire break.

• Check that the run command input(s) have been actuated in accordance with the chosen control mode
(tCC parameter in the I-O menu).

• If an input is assigned to the limit switch function and this input is zero, the drive can only be started
up by sending a command for the opposite direction, see ATV 12 programming manual.

• If the LED on the DC bus is lit and nothing appears on the display, check that there is no short-circuit
on the 24 V power supply.

• If the drive displays “rdY” and refuses to start, check that there is not short circuit on the 24 V power
supply and check the wiring of input AI1 and LI1.

APPENDIX H

Installation
Installation and Safety Recommendations
In common with other items of process plant a pump must be installed correctly to ensure satisfactory and safe
operation. The pump must also be maintained to a suitable standard. Following these recommendations will
ensure that the safety of personnel and satisfactory operation of the pump is achieved.

General
When handling harmful or objectionable materials, adequate ventilation must be provided in order to disperse
dangerous concentrations of vapours. It is recommended that wherever possible pumps should be installed with
provision for adequate lighting, thus ensuring that effective maintenance can be carried out in satisfactory
conditions. With certain product materials, a hosing down facility with adequate draining will simplify
maintenance and prolong the life of pump components.

Storage
Short-term storage
Where a pump has to be stored for 6 months or less then the following steps are advised:
1. Store pump inside wherever possible or if this is not feasible then provide protective covering. Do not
allow moisture to collect around the pump.

2. Remove the drain plug, if fitted. Any inspection plates fitted should also be removed to ensure that the
suction housing could drain and dry completely.

3. Loosen the packing gland and inject sufficient grease into the stuffing box. Tighten the gland nut
hand tight. If a water flush system is to be used do not grease, a small amount of light oil is
recommended for these.

4. See Manufacturers instructions for motor/gearbox/drive instructions for storage procedures.

Long-term storage
If the pump is to be kept in storage for more than six months then in addition to the above the following
procedures should be carried out regularly (every 2 - 3 weeks if possible):

1. If practicable rotate the pump at least three quarters of one revolution to avoid the rotor setting in the
stator.

2. Note, however, that the pump is not to be rotated for more than two revolutions each time because
damage could be caused to the rotor/stator elements.

Immediately prior to installation and starting.


Before installing the pump please ensure that all plugs and inspection plates are replaced and that excess
grease/oil is removed from the stuffing box. Make sure the pump is not started in dry condition.

140 SLUDGE DOSAGE PUMP


APPENDIX H

Electrical
Electrical connection should only be made using equipment suitable for both rating and environment. Where
any doubts exist regarding the suitability of equipment, supplier should be consulted before proceeding.
Normally the pump should be installed with starting equipment arranged to give direct on line starting.

Earthing points will be provided on electric drives (if supplied) and it is essential that these are correctly
connected. When the motor is being wired and checked for rotation, the start/stop sequence must be
instantaneous to prevent dry running or pressurising upstream equipment. (Check direction arrow on pump
nameplate). The electrical installation should include appropriate isolating equipment to ensure that the pump
unit is safe to work on.

Important
The pump must never run against a closed inlet or outlet valve, as this could result in mechanical failure.

General safety
Great care must be taken to protect all electrical equipment from splashing when hosing down.
All nuts and bolts, securing flanges and base mounting fixtures must be checked for tightness before operation.
To eliminate vibration, the pump must be correctly aligned with the drive unit, and all guards must be securely
flexed in position. When commissioning the plant, all joints in the system must be checked thoroughly for
leakage.

If, when starting, the pump does not appear to operate correctly, the plant must be shut down immediately and
the cause of the malfunction established before operations are recommenced. It is recommended that
depending upon plant system operation, either a combined vacuum and pressure gauge, or a vacuum gauge only
be fitted to the pump inlet port, and a pressure gauge fitted to the outlet port, these will then continuously
monitor the pump operating conditions.

Start-up procedure
Pumps must be filled with liquid before starting. The initial filling is not for priming purposes, but to provide
the necessary lubrication of the stator until the pump primes itself. When the pump is stopped, sufficient liquid
will normally be trapped in the rotor/stator assembly to provide lubrication upon re-starting.

If, however, the pump has been left standing for an appreciable time, moved to a new location, or has been
dismantled and re-assembled, it must be refilled with liquid and given a few turns before starting. The pump is
normally somewhat stiff to turn by hand owing to the dose rotor/stator fit. However, this stiffness disappears
when the pump is running normally against pressure.

Dry running
Never run the pump in a dry condition even for a few revolutions, the stator will be damaged
immediately. Continual dry running could produce some harmful or damaging effects.

SLUDGE DOSAGE PUMP 141


APPENDIX H

Mechanical seals, all pumps.


When a mechanical seal is fitted to the pump it may be necessary to provide a barrier fluid to some part of the
seal. This should be provided in line with the seal manufacturers instructions.

Guards
In the interests of safety, all guards must be replaced after necessary adjustments have been made to the pump.

Warning/control device
Prior to operating the pump, if any warning or control devices are fitted these must be set in accordance with
their specific instructions.

Pump operating temperature


The range of temperatures the pump surfaces will develop is dependent upon factors such as product
temperature and ambient temperature of the installation. There may be instances where the external pump
surface can exceed 50°C.

Maintenance of wearing components


Rotor and stator
The wear rate on these components is dependent on many factors, such as product abrasivity, speed, pressure
etc.

When pump performance has reduced to an unacceptable level one or possibly both items will need replacing.

Installation
Installation and Safety Recommendations
In common with other items of process plant a pump must be installed correctly to ensure satisfactory and safe
operation. The pump must also be maintained to a suitable standard. Following these recommendations will ensure that
the safety of personnel and satisfactory operation of the pump is achieved.

General
When handling harmful or objectionable materials, adequate ventilation must be provided in order to disperse
dangerous concentrations of vapours. It is recommended that wherever possible pumps should be installed with
provision for adequate lighting, thus ensuring that effective maintenance can be carried out in satisfactory conditions.
With certain product materials, a hosing down facility with adequate draining will simplify maintenance and prolong
the life of pump components.

Storage
Short-term storage
Where a pump has to be stored for 6 months or less then the following steps are advised:
1. Store pump inside wherever possible or if this is not feasible then provide protective covering. Do not allow
moisture to collect around the pump.

2. Remove the drain plug, if fitted. Any inspection plates fitted should also be removed to ensure that the
suction housing could drain and dry completely.

3. Loosen the packing gland and inject sufficient grease into the stuffing box. Tighten the gland nut hand tight.
If a water flush system is to be used do not grease, a small amount of light oil is recommended for these.

4. See Manufacturers instructions for motor/gearbox/drive instructions for storage procedures.

Long-term storage
If the pump is to be kept in storage for more than six months then in addition to the above the following procedures
should be carried out regularly (every 2 - 3 weeks if possible):

1. If practicable rotate the pump at least three quarters of one revolution to avoid the rotor setting in the stator.

2. Note, however, that the pump is not to be rotated for more than two revolutions each time because damage
could be caused to the rotor/stator elements.

Immediately prior to installation and starting.


Before installing the pump please ensure that all plugs and inspection plates are replaced and that excess
grease/oil is removed from the stuffing box. Make sure the pump is not started in dry condition.

154 WATER DOSAGE PUMP


APPENDIX J

Electrical
Electrical connection should only be made using equipment suitable for both rating and environment. Where any
doubts exist regarding the suitability of equipment, supplier should be consulted before proceeding. Normally the
pump should be installed with starting equipment arranged to give direct on line starting.

Earthing points will be provided on electric drives (if supplied) and it is essential that these are correctly connected.
When the motor is being wired and checked for rotation, the start/stop sequence must be instantaneous to prevent dry
running or pressurising upstream equipment. (Check direction arrow on pump nameplate). The electrical installation
should include appropriate isolating equipment to ensure that the pump unit is safe to work on.

Important
The pump must never run against a closed inlet or outlet valve, as this could result in mechanical failure.

General safety
Great care must be taken to protect all electrical equipment from splashing when hosing down.
All nuts and bolts, securing flanges and base mounting fixtures must be checked for tightness before operation. To
eliminate vibration, the pump must be correctly aligned with the drive unit, and all guards must be securely flexed in
position. When commissioning the plant, all joints in the system must be checked thoroughly for leakage.

If, when starting, the pump does not appear to operate correctly, the plant must be shut down immediately and the
cause of the malfunction established before operations are recommenced. It is recommended that depending upon
plant system operation, either a combined vacuum and pressure gauge, or a vacuum gauge only be fitted to the pump
inlet port, and a pressure gauge fitted to the outlet port, these will then continuously monitor the pump operating

normally be trapped in the rotor/stator assembly to provide lubrication upon re-starting.

If, however, the pump has been left standing for an appreciable time, moved to a new location, or has been dismantled
and re-assembled, it must be refilled with liquid and given a few turns before starting. The pump is normally
somewhat stiff to turn by hand owing to the dose rotor/stator fit. However, this stiffness disappears when the pump is
