CHECKS AND VIBRATIONS
CRITICAL OVERHAUL CHECKS IN LARGE
TURBINE

(b) COUPLING OF ROTORS
(c) CATENARY OF THE MACHINE
(d) SWING CHECK
(e) TURBINE ROTORS
(f) ROLL CHECK OF VARIOUS CASINGS
(g) HORN DROP CHECKS

(j) TURBINE CASINGS
CRITICAL OVERHAUL CHECKS IN LARGE
TURBINE
(a) ALIGNMENT OF ROTORS
The swing check and CRO are the two important checks for the
coupling of two rotors.The swing check is possible only on
HP/Exc. end of the rotor hence the CRO is only check for
various couplings.
(c) CATENARY OF MACHINE
Ensure that all the coupling bolts are fully tightened / elongated
to the design values during recording of the swing check. Value
checked with partial coupling bolts may not give reliable
reading.
Improper radial clearance set during the roll check of the casing
may cause barring gear jamming problem.
Repair for none of the above works can be done at site and
module is required to be sent to BHEL, works only. In such
cases a spare module can be installed at site and repair of
existing module can be planned.
Centring of HP/IP inner casing during shop assembly is done
with the alignment shaft but during COH this practice is not
followed. It is essential to check the centring with alignment
shaft during COH of the module too. The alignment shafts are
required to be procured for site work.
