Innovative Project -1Reduction In Overhauling Cycle Time
q Shortage of power in grid
q Time taken for Unit Overhauling is perceived to be high
q High Unit Overhauling cycle time leads to more generation loss and hence
pain to all
Problem Statement
q National Average unit overhaul time is between 35-45 Days
q Use of Six sigma methodology for reduction in overhaul cycle time
q SOP developed for overhaul & with monitoring & review system in place
Reason for taking up project
Milestone Eventsq Generator trip q Barring gear Stop for LP-GEN
Decouplingq Start of Generator, Exciter & their
Bearing Activitiesq Generator rotor thread out.q Barring Gear stop for Turbine

Six Sigma Methodology Is Used
List of Proposed Improvements for Direct Improvement Causes
1. Start Hydrogen purging at 0.1 Kg Pressure
2. Local pressure gauge to be installed for monitoring CO23. Guidelines to be prepared for maintaining the required / suitable
temperature at the time of Machine tripping.4. Recirculation line to be provided to ensure effective cooling of the lube oil.
5. LPBS to be installed to enable frequent ON / OFF operation of JOP6. Shim Cutting Machine to be procured as necessary shims in various sizes can
be cut during alignment in lesser time.
7. Maintenance of EOT crane before O/H.8. Consolidated list of Manpower, Tools & Tackles shall be prepared to
facilitate C&M while finalizing the contract.

Electrostatic Liquid Cleaner Innovative Project-2
Validation Of Existing System
Inadequacy of existing system of filtration:
q Existing system of filtration inadequate to reduce contamination to
required level.
q Repeated failures in Turbine,Fans and other system has proven that with the existing level of cleanliness, the reduction in defects could not be
achieved.
q Due to their microscopic size, they are not removed by traditional filter systems, and because of their sticky structure and corrosive effect, they
directly affect the efficiency and the reliability of the hydraulic system.
15 June’ 2006
Turbine and auxiliaries
qMalfunctioning of HP Bypass system
qChocking and bulging of turbine lube oil filter
q Malfunctioning of governing system
q Increase in clearances of Hydrogen seal
q Scoring marks on journals and bearings
Failure statistics Before ELC :
Boiler and auxiliaries:
qFailure of PA Fan servomotor
qFailure of Bearing of ID Fan hydraulic coupling
qReducer Gear failure in Mill
qFailure of PA fan bearing
Total Revenue Loss: Rs. 40 MillionsOil Contamination causes 90% of Major faults and downtime
q ELC works similar to the principle of Electro Static Precipitator.
Super Cleaning by ELC (Electrostatic Liquid Cleaner)
Methodology q Trial with HP By-pass hydraulic system. q Patch test carried out before and after oil filtration.The results were
encouraging.
q Based on the results,it has been adopted for other critical equipments like Turbine,PA / FD Fans.
q Sustained Achievement in oil cleanliness to NAS-7 level.
q Reduction in Oil consumption
q Reduction in Inventory.
q Process reliability has increased.
q Equipment availability has increased.
