Emergency Handling

In Mills-Stage II
Whenever any Mill trips
• Take oil support in running Mill

• Take out machine from CMC

• Control secondary air through

Boiler

• Reduce Burner tilt if it is more

than +12 deg,
to increase flame stability.
• Increase main air flows through
running Mill

• Reduce Load reference to control

Turbine
Throttle pressure from falling

• Monitor Drum level control &

FRS DP

• Start APH soot blowing.

 Whenever any one Mill discharge
valve close indication appearing

Example:When Mills AB/CD are in service

• If any one discharge valve close limit acts

and open goes off in Elevation B, Elevation
• Take oil support in Mill AB
• Do not give start command to elevation A
• Get the problem attended ( limit switch/card
• Take elevation A
henever any one feeder tripped for a M
 Example:When Mills AB/CD are in
service and
feeder C tripped
• Take oil guns in CD elevation
• Reduce air in C Elevation to maintain mill
outlet
temperature and mill coal level.
• If feeder is not starting back,Keep the oil
support and
change over Mill
 Whenever any Mill grease
sequence
is not healthy
Grease pump is in service
• Bypass grease sequence healthy protection if
rectification takes more than 15 minutes
• Immediately start manual greasing
• Get the greasing sequence rectified
Grease pump is not in service
• If pump not start back immediately
A) Simulate Grease pump running indication
B) Bypass Grease sequence healthy protection
• Immediately start manual greasing
• Get the grease pump starting problem rectified
The condition Girth Greasing
Sequence OK
• Grease pump motor is on
• Time between two successive limit
switch activation
is< 2mts
• Grease atomizing air pressure is correct
2 sec after
energizing the solenoid valve
 Whenever Mill lube oil filter
DP high alarm appear

• Confirm from PMS/Event log,whether the

alarm is from LP
pump or reducer pump
• Put the respective standby pump also into
service and
changeover lube oil filter and clean the
choked one
a) Reducer flow low trip actuates if flow is
<45 LPM
and pressure is <0.75 ksc--[2FS &
1PS])--2/3 logic
b) LP flow trip actuates if end flow is <20
LPM
Whenever Mill lubrication trouble
alarm appears

• Confirm from PMS/Event log

a)In case LP pump, change over to
cleaned standby filter
b)Check for sufficient LP lube oil temp
after cooler
(around 45 deg).If less,decrease cooler
water flow
to get sufficient LP flow at each end of
the Mill
c)Maintain lube oil tank temp. around 50
deg C
d)In case of Reducer pump,change over
to cleaned
stand by filter to increase flow as well
as pressure
(Normal pressure 2.0 ksc/flow 65 lpm )
case of HP pump, change over pump and observe
ischarge pressure.(Normal 50ksc/Alarm20 ksc/
ip 17 ksc)
ufficient Lp pump before filter pressure( around 8
ank temp.(around 50 deg.)
ank level
Whenever any seal air fan trips and its
discharge valve not closed

• Running seal air fan tripped on over

loaded.
 Reduce seal air DP( around 350 mmwc)

 Reduce particular mill end airflow

 Reduce PA Header pressure

• Take oil gun in other running Mill

• Immediately close suction damper of
tripped seal air fan
from local (to avoid backflow of seal air)
• Incase Mill trips on seal air header
pressure very low
follow steps mentioned in case of mill
tripping.
 Whenever any Mill current
starts hunting
• Mill current start hunting by around 10A
whenever stones
are getting filled in the mill through feeder.
It is observed
 Mill current comes down by few amperes

for half an hour.

 Current reaches around 200A

 Noise level comes down

 Mill level goes up

• Start mill purging (Keep mill noise level

constant by
regulating feeder speed in manual)
• After few hours of purging, Mill current
and noise level
improves gradually. Increase feeder speed
gradually.
• If Mill current does not come down even
after prolonged
never any running Mill PA General inl
got closed (due to failure of I/P conve

• Follow steps mentioned in case of mill

tripping.
• Reduce feeder speed/stop feeder if Mill
level going very
high
• Get the PA General gate problem
attended ,also open it
and normalize milling system and take
out oil support
Whenever any Mill main Primary
air damper flow starts hunting

• Say, when Mill AB/CD are in service ,end

'C' main air flow
starts hunting
• To avoid tripping of elevation 'D' on
ignition energy when
end 'C' air flow comes below 12 TPH, take
oil support in
mill CD
• Get the flow feedback problem attended
otherwise Change
over mill from CD to EF
henever any ID fan / PA Fan /FD fan tr
• During this condition top Mill trips
• Follow steps mentioned in case of mill
tripping.

enever any Mill Motor bearing tempera

ntact EMD to provide external air cooling for bea

Bearing temperature gets controlled,Inform MTP
d the cause
bearing temperature hunting (RTD problem) info
bypass the protection and tighten RTD.
enever any ESP Transformer /Coal M
CC -A trips

• When ESP Transformer -A is

tripped,Coal mill MCC-A
section -A becomes dead and Girth gear
greasing pumps
of Mill AB/CD/EF are tripped
• Simulate girth gear greasing pump
running indication if
supply normalization expected to take >
15 minutes
• Bypass girth gear greasing sequence
protection
• Start manual greasing with the help of
BMD
FIRE IN BALL & TUBE
MILLS
Reasons for fire:
• Entrapment of foreign material in ribbon
conveyor thus breaking the connecting rods
resulting in pulverized coal accumulation in the
screw area leading to fire.
• One end operation of mill without slight opening
of the damper on non-operating end. This may
result in coal dust accumulation on non-operating
end and consequently fire will start.
• Ball and coal dust accumulation in hot air box
(dead zone) resulting in fire.
• Non-functioning of mill level Delta “P”
(choking of tubes) resulting in uncontrolled raw
coal feeding to mill and choking the mill.
•  Accumulation of pulverized coal near the
closed PF purge damper
 Avoiding Mill Fire

• Breakage of Tie rods is a possibility due to which

PF can accumulate in screw conveyor zone. Mill
should be taken into shutdown and maintenance
should take up the repair works.
• Steam inerting at the time of starting and stopping
the mill
• Mill should not be run without coal feeding to the
mill for more than 10 minutes
• Both ends of the mill should be kept in service
• Purging of mill for 10 minutes every time, before
stopping.
• If a mill is stopped without emptying coal,Keep
aux motor in service for a minimum of 4 hrs
Detection of mill fire:
• Abnormal rise in mill outlet temperature.
