SECTION 1 INTRODUCTION

1.1 CONDENSER TUBE CLEANING SYSTEM

1.1.1 DESCRIPTION

Condensers/Heat Exchanges play a key role in Power, Desalination & Process Industries. A lower
back pressure of the turbine results in a higher generation of power and this largely depends on the
performance of the Condenser.

It is essential to maintain the heat transfer rate and co-efficient close to the design parameters for
improved steam condensation. Hence the cleanliness of the condenser tubes should be kept as close
as possible to the design values in order to increase the condenser efficiency which will result in an
optimum Power Generation. Similarly, highly efficient heat transfer rate of the heat exchangers can
lower energy cost of the Processing Industries.

Tube Cleaning System of the Condensers/Heat Exchangers by using Sponge Rubber Balls has been
in use all over the world, for more than a four decades now. This system is found to be an effective
solution for maintaining the cleanliness factor at the optimum level.

Sponge rubber balls with a special composition and size 1 to 3mm greater than the inner diameter
of the Condenser Tubes are injected into the Cooling Water stream at the inlet. These balls with
specific gravity close to the cooling water are carried into the Condenser by the velocity of the inlet
water. Cleaning balls are then pushed through the tubes by the differential pressure existing across
the Condenser. While passing through the Condenser tubes, the balls are pressed against the walls
of the tubes removing all deposits on the inner surface of the tubes. A specially designed screen
arrangement called the Ball Separator, separates the balls from the main Cooling Water system and
the balls are collected in the Ball Collector. The balls are injected into the Cooling Water through the
Ball Recirculating Pump.

The main advantages of a Tube Cleaning System are :

 Maintain the Heat Transfer Rate


 Optimum Turbine Back Pressure
 Maintain Generation Efficiency
 Avoidance of corrosion in Tubes
 Avoidance of Shutdown for Manual Cleaning
 Reduction of Chemical costs for Water Treatment
 Reduction in Fuel costs
 Avoidance of Tube Failure

SECTION 2 DESCRIPTION OF COMPONENTS


The description of various components which form part of Tube Cleaning System is given below :

2.1 BALL SEPARATOR (BALL STRAINER)

Ball Separator (Ball Strainer) is specially designed to facilitate the smooth passage of the Cleaning
Balls to the extraction point. The unique design of the Ball Separator ensures that the Cleaning Balls
will have to move through only a small angle, since larger angles may result in the balls sticking to
the screen in case of adverse conditions.

Ball Separator is of shell type construction with flanged ends. The Ball Separator consists of two
screens, which are mounted on two independent shafts. These shafts are fitted one end with bearing
and another end with a separate drive that facilitates independent operation of screens and easier
maintenance.

Screen separate the Cleaning Balls from the Ball Separator and guide them to Ball Extraction Pipes.

The screen can be set in either OPERATION POSITION or in BACKWASH POSITION. Actuator
with Worm Gear arrangement enables the movement of screen to the required position.

2.1.1 OPERATION POSITION

In this position, Cleaning Balls are separated from the cooling water and are guided to the Ball
Extraction Nozzle.

2.1.2 BACKWASH POSITION

Screens in the Ball Separator are in an inverted position. In this position, balls are not in circulation
and the screens are thoroughly backwashed, when the Differential Pressure across the Ball Separator
exceeds a preset value due to the fouling of screen.

OPERATION POSITION BACKWASH POSITION

DES/OMM/TCS/DS Sheet 6
OPERATION & MAINTENANCE MANUAL
FOR AUTOMATIC CONDENSER TUBE CLEANING SYSTEM

2.2 D.P. MEASURING SYSTEM

Differential Pressure across the Ball Separator Screens is constantly monitored by a Differential
Pressure Measuring System, wherein the measured value is sensed by a Differential Pressure
Transmitter. This is to monitor the Differential Pressure across the Ball Separator Screen. When the
Differential Pressure exceeds the value, the screen automatically will move to Backwash Position.
The above system consists of

- D.P. Transmitter senses the Differential Pressure and transforms this into an electrical output.
- Isolation Valves isolate the D.P. Transmitter from the Cooling Water in case of Service
requirements.

2.3 BALL RECIRCULATING SKID

The Ball Recirculating Skid transport the Cleaning Balls to the Ball Injection Point at the Main
Cooling Water Pipe Line.

The Ball Recirculating Skid consists of

- Ball Recirculating Pump is a non-clog centrifugal pump with specially designed impeller,
capable of handling Cleaning Balls under suitable pressure for injection and collection of sponge
rubber balls in the inlet and outlet of the condenser respectively.
- Motor for the Ball Recirculating Pump is a totally enclosed fan Cooled squirrel cage induction
motor.
- Pressure Gauge measures the discharge pressure of the Ball Re-circulating Pump.
- Ball transport Piping is provided for the movement of the balls to the condenser.
- Ball Collector (Ball Vessel) is specially designed with no moving parts and hence it is
maintenance free. It is used for charging and collection of cleaning balls. The Ball Collector has
a perforated screen basket which traps the balls inside the Ball Collector during collection mode.
The Ball Collector acts as a reservoir for the sponge balls when the system is not in operation.
- Valves are given in the Ball Collector for charging, collecting and bypassing the water from the
Ball Collector.
- Valves are provided in the Ball Collector for venting and draining purpose whenever required.

2.4 V-PIECE (BALL DISTRIBUTOR)

V-Piece is provided in case of its requirement to branch off the Ball Transport Pipe into two separate
pipelines. Sight glass in the V-Piece to monitor the movement of Cleaning Balls.

2.5 MANUALLY OPERATED VALVES

Manually operated valves are provided in the Ball Extraction, Ball Injection and other isolation areas
for service requirements. These Valves are operated manually by a lever.

2.6 ACTUATOR OPERATED VALVES

Actuator operated valves are normally provided in the Ball Collector for Ball Collection and
Distribution purpose. They can be provided in other areas also depends upon the requirement.

2.7 BALL TRANSPORT PIPING

Ball Transport Pipes are installed between the Ball Separator Extraction Nozzle and the Injection
Nozzle. These pipes are used to transport the cleaning balls from the Ball Extraction Nozzle to
Injection Nozzle.

2.8 CLEANING BALLS

Cleaning Balls are used for preventing formation of deposits and scales inside the Condenser tubes.
The composition of balls is based on a natural rubber mixture containing fillers and chemicals.

To ensure uniform distribution of cleaning balls to all the Condenser tubes, the cleaning balls have
been designed to have a specific gravity close to that of the Cooling Water.

Ball life strongly depends on Water Quality, Cleaning frequency and surface condition of the
condenser tubes. Scaled and corroded surfaces are having a detrimental effect on ball life.

For every fresh charge of cleaning balls in the Ball Collector, squeezing in water is mandatory to
release the air to avoid floating of balls on top of the condenser and uniform ball circulation.

Used but effective balls should always be kept in the water.

2.9 BALL GAUGE / BALL GAUGE TROLLEY

Ball Gauge is made of polymer bin, fitted with Stainless Steel Gauge Plate. The Gauge Plate has
Sieves for separating the oversize balls. The sieve size is equal to the internal diameter of the tube
size.

The balls collected from the Ball collector, after the water is completely squeezed out, are to be spread
over the sieve plate. The undersize balls are passed through the sieve and collected in the Bin. The
oversize balls will stay over the sieve plate.

The operator has to collect the oversize balls and to add new balls to compensate the worn-out balls.
The same shall be charged in the Ball Collector for circulation.

Ball Gauge mounted on castor wheels for mobility is termed as Ball Gauge Trolley.

OPERATION & MAINTENANCE MANUAL
FOR AUTOMATIC CONDENSER TUBE CLEANING SYSTEM

2.10 INJECTION PIPE

Injection Pipe facilitates transportation and even distribution of the balls in the branches. The balls
are injected towards counter-flow direction for homogeneous mixing and distribution over the tube
sheets.

The Injection Pipes are installed at the Cooling Water inlet pipe. Cleaning Balls are injected through
these pipes into the system. For a good ball distribution, the end of the injection pipe is directed
against the Flow.

SECTION 5 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTION

5.1 PREPARATION FOR INSTALLATION

All the components have to be checked for physical verification with the packing list of the
consignments to make sure that the required items are totally available to take up the
Installation. This can also be crosschecked with the P&I Diagram.

Safety instructions as stipulated have to be followed strictly.

5.2 GENERAL INSTALLATION PROCEDURE

P&I Diagram for the entire system has to be studied thoroughly and the respective
components for installation are to be kept separately. Necessary tools & tackles have to be
made ready and the safety instructions have to be followed strictly. The major components
such as Ball Separator, Ball Recirculating Unit and DP Measuring System can be erected in
the sequence based on the site progress and the site front availability.

If any actuators used should only be attached after the general assembly shortly before
Commissioning, adjustment of the limit switch depends on momentum and path is to be
carried out according to the separate operating instructions for actuators.

5.3 BALL SEPARATOR

Installation is according to Plant layout / Installation Plan / P&I Diagram & GA Drawings.
Please observe the direction of flow.

PROCEDURE

1) Check matching flange fit up and welding of flange to the Cooling Water outlet pipe.
Welding is to be done by a qualified welder. Proper welding procedure should be
followed and the suitable welding rods should be used
2) Check the final dimension and install the Ball Separator as per Installation Plan.
3) Insert Gasket between both flanges and tighten the fasteners by applying uniform
torque.
4) Check the pipeline for any leakage. To avoid leakage in the pipeline the fasteners
should be tightened with uniform torque.
Note
After installation of the Ball Separator in the pipeline, at initial start up of the system the
screens shall be turned to the backwash position. In case the continuous operation of the
Condenser Tube Cleaning System is not maintained (e.g. incomplete control system) screens
shall be in operating position. Depending on debris load in the water frequent backwashing
of the Ball Separator screens has to be ensured to avoid damage to the screens.

DES/OMM/TCS/DS Sheet 15
OPERATION & MAINTENANCE MANUAL
FOR AUTOMATIC CONDENSER TUBE CLEANING SYSTEM

5.4 COVERAGE OF DEAD SPOTS IN THE CONDENSER AND TAP-OFF PIPELINE

Dead Spots (Dead Zones) are areas that lie outside the free flowing water segment where the
water either stagnates or eddies. There is a danger that balls will get trapped in these areas
(in extreme cases, several thousand balls can also be lodged) and will no longer be available
for cleaning the tubes. Dead Spots therefore have to be screened off with perforated metal
sheets for equalizing the pressure differences. Holes in the metal sheet / or gap between the
sheet and the wall should not be larger than 6mm. Similarly, Vent, Drain, Tap-off pipelines
to Plate Heat Exchangers within the ball recirculating loop should also be screened. These
screening portions should have more free flow area considering the pipe cross section.

5.5 PUMP ARRANGEMENTS

The complete arrangement should be so installed that the foundations are capable of
absorbing all external forces and moments.

The bed plate, with the equipment mounted on it, should be carefully adjusted with a spirit
level. Metallic packing should be placed close to the bosses of the anchor bolts. To prevent
sagging of the base plate, metallic packing should be placed midway between the bosses
where necessary.

5.5.1 GROUTING THE BASE PLATE

The anchor bolts should be embedded in quick-setting cement. Following this treatment the
bolts should be tightened uniformly. The base plate can then be grouted.

5.5.2 PRIOR TO INSTALLATION OF COUPLING

 After removing the coupling from packing, thoroughly inspect to ensure that they is/are
as ordered & there no is transit damage or loss.

DES/OMM/TCS/DS Sheet 16
OPERATION & MAINTENANCE MANUAL
FOR AUTOMATIC CONDENSER TUBE CLEANING SYSTEM

 Remove protective coating/lubricant from bores & keyways. Remove all the bolts & nuts
and dismantle the assembly.

5.5.3 MOUNTING PROCEDURE FOR COUPLING

Mount hubs/adapter on their respective shafts with keys such that the shaft ends are flush
with inner face of the adapter & tighten the set screw over the keys.

For spacer type of couplings, the spacer length is normally equal to the distance between
shaft ends (DBSE) of the equipment’s. Refer the following figure.

For normal applications the shaft ends should be flush with inner face of hub/adapter. They
can protrude beyond the inner face of hub or remain inside if required. But sufficient gap
should be allowed to take care of end float of both shafts. Ensure that the effective length of
key is sufficient to transmit the rated torque of the coupling.

For RRS coupling, mount the outer ring on one of the adapters and slide it towards the
nearest equipment.

DBSE is 100mm (inclusive of G Gap 94mm + 3mm (Drive Side) + 3mm (Driven Side) (G) Gap
= 100mm. Refer Installation manual attached herewith for more details.

5.5.4 ALIGNMENT OF SPACER COUPLING


(to be carried out after the bed plate has been cast and the pipework has been connected)

An alignment of the couplings is absolutely necessary in order to ensure that the pump is
mechanically free to rotate and additionally to avoid damage to the coupling. First, care
should be taken to maintain the prescribed separation (Fig. 1) between the two halves of the
coupling. Furthermore, the center axis of the shaft should join up smoothly with the coupling
(no kinks). Possible non-alignments either side-ways and / or vertical (Fig. 3) or at an angle
(Fig. 4) should be eliminated.

Alignment can be controlled using either a straight edge, or feeler gauge or calipers (Fig. 1 &
2). A coupling is judged to be aligned when a straight edge placed across both halves of the
coupling and parallel to the shaft, should have the same distance from the shaft over the
whole coupling.

5.5.5 ASSEMBLY PROCEDURE FOR COUPLING

3.0 SALIENT FEATURES


1. The Control logic is set out to cater to the operational requirements of CONDENSER TUBE
CLEANING SYSTEM (CTCS) under all conditions.
2. CONDENSER TUBE CLEANING SYSTEM functions in three operational modes.

a. LOCAL AUTO MODE – Operation in LOCAL AUTO can be selected by


pressing LOCAL AUTO in HMI.

b. MANUAL MODE – Operation in MANUAL can be selected by pressing


MANUAL in HMI.

c. REMOTE AUTO MODE – Operation in REMOTE AUTO can be selected by


pressing REMOTE AUTO in HMI.

3. Electric Actuators for the Ball Strainer Screens and the Ball Valves are provided with end
travel limit switches.

4. Indication and audible alarm, in the form of feedback signal, has been provided in the panel
for all failure signals.

5. 4-20mA Analog signal from the Differential Pressure Transmitters are used for DP
measurement across Ball Strainer.

6. Ready to start indication will glow only when all the electrical drives are in "HEALTHY"
condition. The "HEALTHY" condition is defined as a condition when all "FAIL"
indications are in OFF, these conditions and the availability of the "CTCS Start Permissive
(CW PUMP running feedback)" signal from the DCS will lead to switch “ON" the "READY
TO START" indication. The Ready to start indication will be on only when the system is
selected in AUTO MODE.

7. The indications (OPEN/CLOSE or OPERATION/BACKWASH) will blink when the


electric actuator operated valves / screens move from one status to another status. The
corresponding indication will glow steadily when end travel limit switch is reached.

8. Summary failure indication is for failures in the power circuitry of individual drives.
Sequence failure indication is for run time failure of actuators during the operation of the
system.
9. When the system is in "AUTO" mode (either in LOCAL AUTO MODE OR REMOTE
AUTO MODE), it will not respond for any manual pressing of Individual buttons and
selection of mode selector in HMI. And will respond only after the system is stopped.

10.0 LOGIC INTERLOCKS AND FEATURES

1. If Power Supply fails during Auto Operation, on resume of power, all the drives will be brought to
initial condition automatically.

2. If the START PERMISSIVE signal goes OFF during the auto operation, the system stops
immediately as per SEQUENCE STOP Logic.

3. The System can be operated in MANUAL mode to select MANUAL mode the selector (in LCP) to
be selected to MANUAL mode. This mode is predominately used for testing and commissioning
purposes. There is no interlock between the equipment’s in MANUAL mode.

2. The System can be operated in REMOTE AUTO mode to select REMOTE AUTO mode the
selector (in the LCP) to be selected to REMOTE AUTO mode. This mode of operation is same as
of LOCAL AUTO MODE except the start and stop are initiated from DCS instead from Local

2.2. Short description

AUMA worm gearboxes are part-turn gearboxes converting a rotary movement at


the input shaft into a part-turn movement at the output drive. The worm gearboxes
are driven either via electric motor (by means of a multi-turn actuator) or manually
(e.g. via a handwheel). The required input torques are reduced due to high reduction
ratios. In standard version, internal end stops limit the swing angle to 100°.
Worm gearboxes are available in different versions to implement various mounting
conditions and rotary directions.

Injury hazard.
→ Remove coupling from gearbox housing prior to transport.

Figure 5: Coupling

Hovering load!
Risk of death or serious injury.
→ Do NOT stand below hovering load.
→ Attach ropes or hooks for the purpose of lifting by hoist only to housing and NOT
to handwheel.
→ Check eyebolts for tight seat in housing (verify reach of the screws).
→ Observe manufacturer specifications for fixing lifting straps and round slings.
→ Respect total weight of combination (gearbox, primary reduction gearing, actu-
ator).

Information Up to size 125.3, gearboxes are not equipped with special transport threads. Sus-
pension is possible using lifting straps/round slings.
From size 160.3, transport threads are provided for fixing with eyebolts. Eyebolts
are not included in the scope of delivery.

4.4. Multi-turn actuators for motor operation

Refer to the operation instructions pertaining to the multi-turn actuator for indications
on how to mount multi-turn actuators to gearboxes.
This chapter supplies basic information and instructions which should be considered
in addition to the operation instructions of the multi-turn actuator.
Screws to actuator

Screws are included in the scope of delivery of the gearbox for mounting AUMA
multi-turn actuators. When mounting other actuators, the screws might be either too
long or too short (insufficient reach of screws).

Risk of actuator falling off in case inappropriate screws used should shear.
Risk of death or serious injury!
→ Check length of screws.
→ Only use screws with strength class specified herein.

The reach of screws must be sufficient for the internal threads to ensure the
supporting strength of the device and to accept the lateral forces due to the applied
torque.
Screws which are too long could make contact with the housing parts, presenting
the risk that the device performs a radial shift with respect to the gearbox. This can
lead to shearing of the screws.

Up to size GS 125.3, the multi-turn actuator-gearbox combination is delivered in the


ordered mounting position. For packing reasons, actuator and gearbox will be
delivered separately from size GS 160.3.
4.4.2. Input mounting flange: mount
An input mounting flange is required for mounting a multi-turn actuator. Depending
on the version, the flange for mounting the multi-turn actuator is already fitted in the
factory.

[3] Valve shaft (example with key)

4.5.1.1. Gearbox with coupling: mount to valve


Unbored couplings or couplings with pilot bore must be machined to match the valve
shaft prior to mounting the gearbox to the valve (e.g. with bore and keyway, two-flat
or square bore).
Information Assemble valve and gearbox in the same end position. As a standard, the gearbox
is supplied in end position CLOSED.
● Recommended mounting position for butterfly valves: End position CLOSED.
● Recommended mounting position for ball valves: End position OPEN.

Assembly steps 1. If required, move gearbox in same end position as valve using the handwheel.
2. Clean mounting faces, thoroughly degrease uncoated mounting surfaces.
Information: To avoid contact corrosion, we recommend applying a surface
sealing agent on the uncoated contact surfaces for gearboxes without powder
coating.

5. Apply non-acidic grease at splines of coupling (e.g. Gleitmo by Fuchs).


6. Experience showed that it is very difficult to fasten screws or nuts of size M30
or larger at defined torques. There is a risk that the worm gearbox might shift
radially with regard to the valve mounting flange. To improve adhesion between
valve and gearbox, we recommend applying Loctite 243 (or similar adhesive
products) to the mounting faces of screws and nuts from size M30.
7. Fit gearbox. If required, slightly turn gearbox until splines of coupling engage.
Figure 19:

Information Ensure that the spigot (if provided) fits uniformly in the recess and that the flanges
are in complete contact.

8. If flange bores do not match thread:


8.1 Slightly rotate handwheel until bores line up.
8.2 If required, shift gearbox position by one tooth on the coupling.
9. Fasten gearbox with screws.
Information: We recommend applying liquid thread sealing material to the
screws to avoid contact corrosion.

6.1. End stops in gearbox


The internal end stops limit the swing angle and protect the valve against overload.
End stop setting is generally performed by the valve manufacturer prior to installing
the valve into the pipework.

Exposed, rotating parts (discs/balls) at the valve!


Pinching and damage at the valve.
→ End stops should be set by suitably qualified personnel only.
→ Set end stops as to ensure that they are NOT reached during normal operation.

Information The setting sequence depends on the valve:


● Recommendation for butterfly valves: Set end stop CLOSED first.
● Recommendation for ball valves: Set end stop OPEN first.

Information ● In general, gearboxes with a swing angle > 190° are multi-turn (without end
stops). Consequently, end position setting is not possible. Therefore, no protect-
ive function is available for the valve.
● In general, only one end stop (either OPEN or CLOSED) must be set, due to
the fact that the swing angle was already set in the factory.

addition to the operation instructions of the multi-turn actuator.
● The valve manufacturer has to determine whether the valve is limit or torque
seated.
● End position seating must be set in compliance with the operating instructions
pertaining to the multi-turn actuator.
● When setting the torque switching within the multi-turn actuator, make sure that
the tripping torque for both directions does not exceed the max. gearbox input
torque (refer to technical data or name plate).
● Set the torque switching within the multi-turn actuator to the following value to
prevent damage to the valve:
Tripping torque = valve torque/factor (refer to name plate)
● If the swing angle set in the factory for opening and closing the valve is not
sufficient: refer to <Swing angle>.

Servicing and maintenance

7. Servicing and maintenance

Damage caused by inappropriate maintenance!


→ Servicing and maintenance must be carried out exclusively by suitably qualified
personnel having been authorised by the end user or the contractor of the plant.
Therefore, we recommend contacting our service.
→ Only perform servicing and maintenance tasks when the device is switched off.

AUMA
AUMA offers extensive service such as servicing and maintenance as well as
Service & Support customer product training. For the relevant contact addresses, please refer to
<Addresses> in this document or to the Internet (www.auma.com)

7.1. Preventive measures for servicing and safe operation


● Before commissioning, perform visual inspection for grease leakage and paint
damage (corrosion).
● Thoroughly touch up any possible damage to paint. Original paint in small
quantities can be supplied by AUMA.
7.2. Maintenance intervals
Recommendation for plants subject to strong vibration
● For plants subject to strong vibration, 6 months after commissioning and then
once a year: Check fastening screws between actuator and gearbox/valve for
tightness. If required, fasten screws while applying the tightening torques as
indicated in chapter <Assembly>. For screws sealed and secured with e.g.
thread sealing material, this action is not required.
Recommendation for grease change and seal replacement:
● If rarely operated (typically in buried service), the gearboxes are maintenance-
free. Grease change or re-lubrication is not necessary.
● If operated frequently (typically in modulating duty), we recommend changing
both grease and seals after 4 – 6 years.

Gearing damage due to using inappropriate grease!


→ Only use original lubricants supplied by AUMA.
→ Do not mix lubricants.

Instructions for use in potentially explosive atmospheres of categories M2,


2G, 3G, 2D and 3D
● Imperatively heed the technical data, as well as the ambient temperatures, type
of duty and running times indicated on the name plate are observed.
● In potentially explosive atmospheres, in particular where combustible dust is
present, perform visual inspection for deposit of dirt or dust on a regular basis.
Clean devices if required.
● The pointer cover with indicator glass is only approved for use in potentially
explosive atmospheres according to ATEX II2G c IIB T4 or T3.
● When using mechanical microswitches (option), additionally observe the
mounting and wiring instructions of the manufacturer.
7.3. Disposal and recycling
Our devices have a long lifetime. However, they have to be replaced at one point in
time. The devices have a modular design and may, therefore, easily be separated
and sorted according to materials used, i.e.:
● electronic scrap
● various metals
● plastics

30
GS 50.3 – GS 250.3
Servicing and maintenance

● greases and oils


The following generally applies:
● Greases and oils are hazardous to water and must not be released into the
environment.
● Arrange for controlled waste disposal of the disassembled material or for sep-
arate recycling according to materials.
● Observe the national regulations for waste disposal.

on the customer-specific version, refer to the order-related data sheet. The technical
data sheet can be downloaded from the Internet in both German and English at ht-
tp://www.auma.com (please state the order number).

8.1. Technical data Part-turn gearboxes

General information
For motor or manual operation of valves (e.g. butterfly valves, ball and plug valves).
For special applications, e.g. dampers, gas diverters, flue gas dampers, toggle arm driven diverters and guillotine isolators, specific sizing
is required. Separate technical data apply for these applications.

nings instructions in this manual and observe the instructions given. Safety instructions
and warning signs on the device must be observed to avoid personal injury or property
damage.

Qualification of staff Assembly, electrical connection, commissioning, operation, and maintenance must
be carried out exclusively by suitably qualified personnel having been authorised by
the end user or contractor of the plant only.
Prior to working on this product, the staff must have thoroughly read and understood
these instructions and, furthermore, know and observe officially recognised rules
regarding occupational health and safety.

Commissioning Prior to commissioning, it is important to check that all settings meet the requirements
of the application. Incorrect settings might present a danger to the application, e.g.
cause damage to the valve or the installation. The manufacturer will not be held
liable for any consequential damage. Such risk lies entirely with the user.

Operation Prerequisites for safe and smooth operation:


● Correct transport, proper storage, mounting and installation, as well as careful
commissioning.
● Only operate the device if it is in perfect condition while observing these instruc-
tions.
● Immediately report any faults and damage and allow for corrective measures.
● Observe recognised rules for occupational health and safety.
● Observe the national regulations.
● During operation, the housing warms up and surface temperatures > 60 °C may
occur. To prevent possible burns, we recommend checking the surface tempe-
rature using an appropriate thermometer and wearing protective gloves, if re-
quired, prior to working on the device.
Protective measures The end user or the contractor are responsible for implementing required protective
measures on site, such as enclosures, barriers, or personal protective equipment
for the staff.

Maintenance To ensure safe device operation, the maintenance instructions included in this manual
must be observed.
Any device modification requires prior consent of the manufacturer.
1.2 Range of application

1.3 Applications in Ex zone 22 (option)

Actuators of the indicated series basically meet the requirements for applications in
dust hazardous locations of ZONE 22 in compliance with the ATEX directive 94/9/EC.
The actuators are designed to meet enclosure protection IP 68 and fulfil the
requirements of EN 50281-1-1:1998 section 6 - Electrical apparatus for use in
presence of combustible dust, requirements for category 3 electrical equipment -
protected by enclosures.
To comply with all requirements of EN 50281-1-1:1998, it is imperative that the
following points are observed:
● In compliance with the ATEX directive 94/9/EC, the actuators must be equipped
with an additional identification – II3D IP6X T150 °C.
● The maximum surface temperature of the actuators, based on an ambient
temperature of +40 °C in accordance with EN 50281-1-1 section 10.4, is +150
°C. In accordance with section 10.4, an increased dust deposit on the equipment
was not considered for the determination of the maximum surface temperature.
● The correct connection of the thermoswitches or the PTC thermistors as well
as fulfilling the requirements of the duty type and the technical data are prere-
quisites for compliance with the maximum surface temperature of devices.
● The connection plug may only be plugged in or pulled out when device is dis-
connected from the mains.
● The cable glands used also have to meet the requirements of category II3 D
and must at least comply with enclosure protection IP 67.
● The actuators must be connected by means of an external ground connection
(accessory part) to the potential compensation or integrated into an earthed
piping system.
● The screw plug (part no. 511.0) or the stem protection tube with protective cap
(part nos. 568.1 and 568.2) for sealing the hollow shaft must imperatively be
mounted to guarantee tightness and therefore the combustible dust hazard
protection.
● As a general rule, the requirements of EN 50281-1-1 must be respected in dust
hazardous locations. During commissioning, service, and maintenance, special
care as well as qualified and trained personnel are required for the safe opera-
tion of actuators.

2.2 Short description

Multi-turn actuator Definition in compliance with EN ISO 5210:


A multi-turn actuator is an actuator which transmits to the valve a torque for at least
one full revolution. It is capable of withstanding thrust.
AUMA multi-turn actuators are driven by an electric motor and are capable of
withstanding thrust in combination with output drive type A. For manual operation,
a handwheel is provided. Switching off in end positions may be either by limit or
torque seating. Controls are required to operate or process the actuator signals.
Actuator controls The AUMA MATIC actuator controls are used to operate AUMA actuators and are
supplied ready for use. The controls can be mounted directly to the actuator but also
separately on a wall bracket. The functions of the AUMA MATIC controls include
standard valve control in OPEN - CLOSE duty, position indications and different
signals right through to position control.
Local controls Operation (via push buttons), setting and indication can be performed directly at the
controls (contents of these instructions).

25
SA 07.2 – SA 16.2/SAR 07.2 – SAR 16.2
Operation AM 01.1/AM 02.1

Information For actuators equipped with positioner, it is possible to optionally select between
open-close duty (REMOTE OPEN-CLOSE) and modulating duty (REMOTE
SETPOINT). Selection is made via REMOTE MANUAL input, e.g. based on a 24 V
DC signal (refer to wiring diagram).

Behaviour in modulating duty for version with positioner:


In case of signal loss of setpoint E1 or actual value E2, the actuator moves to a
preset position. The following reactions are possible:
● Fail as is: Actuator stops immediately and remains in this position.
● Fail close: Actuator moves the valve to end position CLOSED.
● Fail open: Actuator moves the valve to end position OPEN.
The behaviour on loss of signal can be set via a switch in the controls.

10. Commissioning – controls settings


The controls are set in the factory according to the order. The settings only have to
be changed if the device is used for applications other than those specified in the
order. In case the device is equipped with a positioner (option), subsequent setting
may be required.
The following settings are described in these operation instructions:
● Type of seating (limit or torque seating): set
● Push-to-run operation or self-retaining: set
● Running indication (blinker transmitter) (option): activate/deactivate
● Torque fault in collective fault signal: activate/deactivate
● Positioner setting (option)
10.1 Controls: open

Hazardous voltage!
Risk of electric shock.
→ Disconnect device from the mains before opening.

Electrostatic discharge ESD!


Risk of damage to electronic components.
→ Earth both operators and devices.

→ Loosen screws [2] and remove cover [1].

10.2 Type of seating: set

Valve damage due to incorrect setting!


→ The type of seating must suit the valve.
→ Only change the setting with prior consent of the valve manufacturer.

The type of seating can be set via two DIP switches on the logic board.
Limit seating
The limit switching is set in such a way that the actuator switches off at the desired
switching points. The torque switching acts as overload protection for the valve.
Torque seating
The torque switching is set to the desired tripping torque. After reaching the tripping
torque, the actuator is turned off.

40
SA 07.2 – SA 16.2/SAR 07.2 – SAR 16.2

The limit seating is used to signal that the limit switching will trip shortly before
reaching the set tripping torque. If this is not the case, either the indication light on
the local controls or the alarm contact K9 (collective fault signal) will signal a fault.

→ Set type of seating for end positions via DIP switches [S1] and [S3].

10.3 Push-to-run operation or self-retaining: set


Push-to-run operation or self-retaining is set via a DIP switch on the logic board.
Push-to-run operation Actuator only runs in direction OPEN or CLOSE while an operation command is
being received. The actuator stops if the operation command is cancelled.
Self-retaining After receiving an operation command, the actuator continues to run in direction
OPEN or CLOSE, even if the operation command is cancelled (self-retaining). The
actuator is either stopped by the STOP command or if an end position or intermediate
position has been reached.

→ Set push-to-run operation or self-retaining via DIP switch [S2].

— (Option) —
The EMERGENCY input (refer to wiring diagram) has to be connected to the control
voltage using an NC contact (closed circuit principle). In the event of an EMERGENCY
command (removal of the signal = NC contact is operated), the actuator runs to the
preset end position:
● EMERGENCY - CLOSE input: Actuator runs to end position CLOSED.
● EMERGENCY - OPEN input: Actuator runs to end position OPEN.
The EMERGENCY command is effective in all three selector switch positions (LOCAL,
OFF, REMOTE).

The actuator can immediately start when switched on!


Risk of personal injuries or damage to the valve.
→ Ensure that EMERGENCY signal is present when switching on.
→ If the actuator starts to run unexpectedly: Immediately press push button Stop.

11.2.2 Motor protection (thermal monitoring)

In order to protect against overheating and impermissibly high surface temperatures


at the actuator, PTC thermistors or thermoswitches are embedded in the motor
winding. The thermoswitch is tripped as soon as the max. permissible winding
temperature has been reached.
The actuator is stopped and the red indication light on the local controls is illuminated.
The motor has to cool down before the operation can be resumed.

The actuator can be controlled again once the motor has cooled down (red indication
light goes out).
Version with thermoswitch and additional thermal overload relay within the
controls (option)

The operation may only be resumed once the fault signal (red indication light) has
been reset. The fault signal is reset via the overload relay integrated in the actuator
controls. Therefore the controls have to be opened at the cover and the relay held
down. The relay is located on the contactors.
Version with PTC thermistor (option)

The operation may only be resumed once the fault signal (red indication light) has
been reset. The fault signal is reset via selector switch position Reset of the local

Damage caused by inappropriate maintenance!


→ Servicing and maintenance must be carried out exclusively by suitably qualified
personnel having been authorised by the end user or the contractor of the plant.
→ Only perform servicing and maintenance tasks when the device is switched off.

Service
AUMA offers extensive service such as servicing and maintenance as well as
customer product training. For the relevant contact addresses, please refer to
<Addresses> in this document or to the Internet (www.auma.com) .

12.1 Preventive measures for servicing and safe operation

The following measures are required to ensure safe device operation:


6 months after commissioning and then every year
● Carry out visual inspection:
Cable entries, cable glands, blanking plugs, etc. have to be checked for correct
tightness and sealing.
Respect torques according to manufacturer's details.
● Check fastening screws between actuator and gearbox/valve for tightness. If
required, fasten screws while applying the tightening torques as indicated in
chapter <Assembly>.
● When rarely operated: Perform test run.
● For devices with output drive A: Press in Lithium soap EP multi-purpose grease
on mineral oil base at the grease nipple with a grease gun.
● Lubrication of the valve stem must be done separately.

For enclosure protection IP 68

After continuous immersion:


● Check actuator.
● In case of ingress of water, locate leaks and repair, dry device correctly and
check for proper function.
12.2 Maintenance

Lubrication ● In the factory, the gear housing is filled with grease.

52
SA 07.2 – SA 16.2/SAR 07.2 – SAR 16.2
AM 01.1/AM 02.1 Servicing and maintenance

● Grease change is performed during maintenance


- Generally after 4 to 6 years for modulating duty.
- Generally after 6 to 8 years if operated frequently (open-close duty).
- Generally after 10 to 12 years if operated rarely (open-close duty).
● We recommend exchanging the seals when changing the grease.
● No additional lubrication of the gear housing is required during operation.
12.3 Disposal and recycling
Our devices have a long lifetime. However, they have to be replaced at one point in
time. The devices have a modular design and may, therefore, easily be separated
and sorted according to materials used, i.e.:
● electronic scrap
● various metals
● plastics
● greases and oils
The following generally applies:
● Greases and oils are hazardous to water and must not be released into the
environment.
● Arrange for controlled waste disposal of the disassembled material or for sepa-
rate recycling according to materials.
● Observe the national regulations for waste disposal.

1. Safety instructions
1.1. Basic information on safety
Standards/directives AUMA products are designed and manufactured in compliance with recognised
standards and directives. This is certified in a Declaration of Incorporation and an
EC Declaration of Conformity.
The end user or the contractor must ensure that all legal requirements, directives,
guidelines, national regulations and recommendations with respect to assembly,
electrical connection, commissioning and operation are met at the place of installation.

Safety instructions/warn- All personnel working with this device must be familiar with the safety and warning
ings instructions in this manual and observe the instructions given. Safety instructions
and warning signs on the device must be observed to avoid personal injury or property
damage.

Qualification of staff Assembly, electrical connection, commissioning, operation, and maintenance must
be carried out exclusively by suitably qualified personnel having been authorised by
the end user or contractor of the plant only.
Prior to working on this product, the staff must have thoroughly read and understood
these instructions and, furthermore, know and observe officially recognised rules
regarding occupational health and safety.

Commissioning Prior to commissioning, it is important to check that all settings meet the requirements
of the application. Incorrect settings might present a danger to the application, e.g.
cause damage to the valve or the installation. The manufacturer will not be held
liable for any consequential damage. Such risk lies entirely with the user.

Operation Prerequisites for safe and smooth operation:


● Correct transport, proper storage, mounting and installation, as well as careful
commissioning.
● Only operate the device if it is in perfect condition while observing these instruc-
tions.
● Immediately report any faults and damage and allow for corrective measures.
● Observe recognised rules for occupational health and safety.
● Observe the national regulations.
● During operation, the housing warms up and surface temperatures > 60 °C may
occur. To prevent possible burns, we recommend checking the surface temper-
ature using an appropriate thermometer and wearing protective gloves, if re-
quired, prior to working on the device.
Protective measures The end user or the contractor are responsible for implementing required protective
measures on site, such as enclosures, barriers, or personal protective equipment
for the staff.

Maintenance To ensure safe device operation, the maintenance instructions included in this manual
must be observed.
Any device modification requires prior consent of the manufacturer.
1.2. Range of application
AUMA part-turn actuators are designed for the operation of industrial valves, e.g.
butterfly valves and ball valves.
Other applications require explicit (written) confirmation by the manufacturer.

The following applications are not permitted, e.g.:


● Industrial trucks according to EN ISO 3691
● Lifting appliances according to EN 14502
● Passenger lifts according to DIN 15306 and 15309
● Service lifts according to EN 81-1/A1

● Escalators
● Continuous duty
● Buried service
● Permanent submersion (observe enclosure protection)
● Potentially explosive areas, with the exception of zone 22
● Radiation exposed areas in nuclear power plants
No liability can be assumed for inappropriate or unintended use.
Observance of these operation instructions is considered as part of the device's
designated use.
Information These operation instructions are only valid for the "clockwise closing" standard
version, i.e. driven shaft turns clockwise to close the valve.
1.3. Applications in Ex zone 22 (option)

Actuators of the indicated series basically meet the requirements for applications in
dust hazardous locations of ZONE 22 in compliance with the ATEX directive 94/9/EC.
The actuators are designed to meet enclosure protection IP68 and fulfil the
requirements of EN 50281-1-1:1998 section 6 - Electrical apparatus for use in
presence of combustible dust, requirements for category 3 electrical equipment -
protected by enclosures.
To comply with all requirements of EN 50281-1-1:1998, it is imperative that the
following points are observed:
● In compliance with the ATEX directive 94/9/EC, the actuators must be equipped
with an additional identification – II3D IP6X T150 °C.
● The maximum surface temperature of the actuators, based on an ambient
temperature of +40 °C in accordance with EN 50281-1-1 section 10.4, is +150
°C. In accordance with section 10.4, an increased dust deposit on the equipment
was not considered for the determination of the maximum surface temperature.
● The correct connection of the thermoswitches or the PTC thermistors as well
as fulfilling the requirements of the duty type and the technical data are pre-
requisites for compliance with the maximum surface temperature of devices.
● The connection plug may only be plugged in or pulled out when device is dis-
connected from the mains.

AUMA power class for The switchgear used in the actuator controls (reversing contactors/thyristors) are
switchgear classified according to AUMA power classes (e.g. A1, B1, ....). The power class
defines the max. permissible rated power (of the motor) the switchgear has been
designed for. The rated power (nominal power) of the actuator motor is indicated in
kW on the motor name plate. For the assignment of the AUMA power classes to the
nominal power of the motor types, refer to the separate electrical data sheets.
For switchgear without assignment to any power classes, the actuator controls name
plate does not indicate the power class but the max. rated power in kW.

2.2. Short description

Part-turn actuator Definition in compliance with EN ISO 5211:


A part-turn actuator is an actuator which transmits a torque to the valve for less than
one full revolution. It need not be capable of withstanding thrust.
AUMA part-turn actuators are driven by an electric motor. A handwheel is provided
for manual operation. Switching off in end positions may be either by limit or torque
seating. Controls are required to operate or process the actuator signals.
Actuator controls The AUMA MATIC actuator controls are used to operate AUMA actuators and are
supplied ready for use. The controls can be mounted directly to the actuator but also
separately on a wall bracket. The functions of the AUMA MATIC controls include
standard valve control in OPEN - CLOSE duty, position indications and different
signals right through to position control.
Local controls Operation (via push buttons), setting and indication can be performed directly at the
controls (contents of these instructions).

Information For actuators equipped with positioner, it is possible to optionally select between
open-close duty (REMOTE OPEN-CLOSE) and modulating duty (REMOTE
SETPOINT). Selection is made via REMOTE MANUAL input, e.g. based on a 24 V
DC signal (refer to wiring diagram).

Behaviour in modulating duty for version with positioner:


In case of signal loss of setpoint E1 or actual value E2, the actuator moves to a
preset position. The following reactions are possible:
● Fail as is: Actuator stops immediately and remains in this position.
● Fail close: Actuator moves the valve to end position CLOSED.
● Fail open: Actuator moves the valve to end position OPEN.
The behaviour on loss of signal can be set via a switch in the controls.

10.6.1. Input ranges (signal type) for setpoint and actual value
The input range (signal type) for setpoint E1 and actual value E2 is set in the factory
and marked with a label on the cover plate of the positioner.
The type of signal can be modified at a later date exclusively for versions with setpoint
E1 ≠ 0/4 – 20 mA and split-range version. For these versions, the positioner board
is equipped with an additional contact.

10.6.4. Sensitivity setting

Unnecessary wear at valve and actuator caused by an excessive number of


starts (sensitivity)!
→ Set maximum dead band acceptable for the process.
→ Observe maximum number of actuator starts (refer to technical data sheet for
modulating actuators).

Dead band The dead band determines the sensitivity between switch-on point and switch-off
point. The smaller the dead band, the higher the sensitivity of the positioner.

10.7. EMERGENCY command (EMERGENCY - OPEN/EMERGENCY - CLOSE)
— (Option) —
The EMERGENCY input (refer to wiring diagram) has to be connected to the control
voltage using an NC contact (closed circuit principle). In the event of an EMERGENCY
command (removal of the signal = NC contact is operated), the actuator runs to the
preset end position:
● EMERGENCY - CLOSE input: Actuator runs to end position CLOSED.
● EMERGENCY - OPEN input: Actuator runs to end position OPEN.
The EMERGENCY command is effective in all three selector switch positions (LOCAL,
OFF, REMOTE).

The actuator can immediately start when switched on!


Risk of personal injuries or damage to the valve.
→ Ensure that EMERGENCY signal is present when switching on.
→ If the actuator starts to run unexpectedly: Immediately press push button Stop.

Risk of functional failures.
→ Turn local controls by a maximum of 180°.
→ Carefully assemble local controls to avoid pinching the cables.

11.2.2. Motor protection (thermal monitoring)

In order to protect against overheating and impermissibly high surface temperatures


at the actuator, PTC thermistors or thermoswitches are embedded in the motor
winding. The thermoswitch is tripped as soon as the max. permissible winding
temperature has been reached.
The actuator is stopped and the "collective fault" indication light (option) on the local
controls is illuminated.
The motor has to cool down before the operation can be resumed.
Version with thermoswitch (standard)

The actuator can be controlled again once the motor has cooled down ("collective
fault" indication light goes out).
Version with thermoswitch and additional thermal overload relay within the
controls (option)

The operation may only be resumed once the fault signal ("collective fault" indication
light) has been reset. The fault signal is reset via the overload relay integrated in the
actuator controls. Therefore the controls have to be opened at the cover and the
relay held down. The relay is located on the contactors.
Version with PTC thermistor (option)

The operation may only be resumed once the fault signal ("collective fault" indication
light) has been reset. The fault signal is reset via selector switch position Reset of

12. Servicing and maintenance

Damage caused by inappropriate maintenance!


→ Servicing and maintenance must be carried out exclusively by suitably qualified
personnel having been authorised by the end user or the contractor of the plant.
Therefore, we recommend contacting our service.
→ Only perform servicing and maintenance tasks when the device is switched off.

AUMA
AUMA offer extensive service such as servicing and maintenance as well as customer
Service & Support product training. For the relevant contact addresses, please refer to <Addresses>
in this document or to the Internet (www.auma.com).

12.1. Preventive measures for servicing and safe operation

The following measures are required to ensure safe device operation:


6 months after commissioning and then every year
● Carry out visual inspection:
Cable entries, cable glands, blanking plugs, etc. have to be checked for correct
tightness and sealing.
Respect torques according to manufacturer's details.
● Check fastening screws between actuator and gearbox/valve for tightness. If
required, fasten screws while applying the tightening torques as indicated in
chapter <Assembly>.
● When rarely operated: Perform test run.
For enclosure protection IP68

After continuous immersion:


● Check actuator.
● In case of ingress of water, locate leaks and repair, dry device correctly and
check for proper function.
12.2. Maintenance

Lubrication ● In the factory, the gear housing is filled with grease.


● Grease change is performed during maintenance
- Generally after 4 to 6 years for modulating duty.
- Generally after 6 to 8 years if operated frequently (open-close duty).
- Generally after 10 to 12 years if operated rarely (open-close duty).
● We recommend exchanging the seals when changing the grease.
● No additional lubrication of the gear housing is required during operation.
12.3. Disposal and recycling
Our devices have a long lifetime. However, they have to be replaced at one point in
time. The devices have a modular design and may, therefore, easily be separated
and sorted according to materials used, i.e.:
● electronic scrap
● various metals
● plastics
● greases and oils
The following generally applies:
● Greases and oils are hazardous to water and must not be released into the
environment.
● Arrange for controlled waste disposal of the disassembled material or for sep-
arate recycling according to materials.

CLEANING BALLS
Cleaning Balls are used for preventing formation of deposits and scales inside the Condenser tubes.
The composition of balls is based on a natural rubber mixture containing fillers and chemicals.

APPLICATIONS

RB Cleaning Balls are used for Stainless Steel and Titanium Tubes to remove biofouled layers. Though
the titanium and high-performance stainless steels are having excellent corrosion resistance, they are
more susceptible to biofouled layers than copper-base alloys. In copper-base alloys, toxic effect of
copper-ions hampers the formation of biofouled layers. Generally, RB Scouring balls with 10 to 12
balls passes per tube per hour are recommended for continuous cleaning.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION

The bio fouled layers are soft in nature and readily removed by normal sponge balls. However, in Sea
Water applications, a gradual build-up of inorganic layer, resistant to normal sponge balls can occur.
It can be identified in any one of the following indications :

• Heat Transfer Rate (ΔT) is likely to dipped


• Abnormal Wear and Tear of normal Cleaning Balls due to rough surface of condenser tubes

In such case, a basic charge of ring coated with fine granulated balls (Type RG) may be circulated for
removing the inorganic layers because RG Balls are having more aggressive scouring effect. RG Balls
are effective only till the coating is prevailed but uncoated balls are effective as long as they are in
oversize. Extensive depreciation of Ring Coating of RG Balls after 30 minutes of operation with one
basic charge is the indication of rough surface or fouling of the condenser tubes. In such case, one or
more basic charge can be circulated. One basic charge of RG Balls is recommended at least once a
year for this project. However, the frequency may be increased depends upon any one of the above
indications is likely to appear. Usage of RG Balls can be stopped immediately once the system is free
from the above indications.

BALL HARDNESS / SPECIFIC GRAVITY

The choice of optimum ball hardness is dictated by the need to be able to collect the balls on screens,
recirculate them and good ball life (the soft balls with the optimum permitted oversize for a given
pressure drop are longer life).

The most commonly used cleaning ball is the "medium" grade.

From a practical point of view, ball hardness does not affect the cleaning properties of the ball.

DES/OMM/CB Sheet 1
LIFE

Ball life strongly depends on Water Quality, Cleaning frequency and surface condition of the condenser
tubes. Scaled and corroded surfaces are having a detrimental effect on ball life.

STORAGE

Storage temperature is to be maintained at 24 ± 3 ºC. Store the cleaning balls in packed cartons to
prevent deformation. Do not store the cleaning balls near the ozone releasing equipment. Do not stack
more than two cartons in a row. Use cleaning balls on first in first out basis. If the balls are removed
from the carton, they should be stored loosely. Cleaning balls should be stored in a place free from oil
and grease. Used but effective balls should always be kept in the water.

WATERING NEW BALLS

For every fresh charge of cleaning balls in the Ball Collector, squeezing in water is mandatory to
release the air to avoid floating of balls on top of the condenser and uniform ball circulation.

BALL OVERSIZE

Ball oversize is the difference between the actual ball diameter and the internal diameter of the tube.
Basically, a cleaning ball has to be larger than the internal diameter of the tube to be cleaned. The
cleaning ball gets squeezed when it enters the tube, thereby pressing itself against the surface of the
tube. The pressure drop between the inlet and outlet ends of the tube transport the ball through the
tube. Cleaning is only fully effective so long as the ball is oversize.

ORDERING

When ordering Cleaning Balls, please specify ball type (e.g. Type RB), nominal ball diameter in mm
and grade of hardness. Refer Catalogue Section for more details.

Schmitz Cleaning Balls
Schmitz (An Affiliate Company of GEA BGR) cleaning balls plays a crucial
role in maintaining the condenser and Heat Exchanger Tubes clean and
free from Fouling & Scaling.

Schmitz Cleaning balls are manufactured with high-quality standards CLEANING BALLS
and are eco-friendly in nature. The Cleaning balls we provide are proven
and accepted by several reputed customers across the world.

Soft Deposits

In all cooling water applications, fouled layers, such as slime, mud or silt,
from on the inner surfaces of condenser tubes even at velocities of
2m/s.These deposits are typically soft and easily removed by SCHMITZ
Cleaning Balls without an abrasive layer.
SCHMITZ recommend Type RS open pore structure sponge ball for
continuous cleaning with 8 to 12 ball passes per tube per hour.

In cooling towers and other open evaporative cooling water systems the
water becomes highly concentrated with certain chemicals. The solubility
limit is thereby exceeeded and hard crystalline deposits, such as calcium
carbonate, form on the tube surface.
SCHMITZ ring coated Abrasive Balls Type RA are first used to clean the
fouled tubes,typically for a period of a few weeks. Continuous cleaning
with Schmitz Balls without an abrasive layer then hinders growth of
nuclei. In very hard waters, regualr use of abrasive ball is recommended,
i.e. 1 or more ball charges every 1 to 3 months.

Artificial Protective Film

Copper base alloys have marginal corrosive resistance in seawater


applications. Although artificial protective film can be formed by using
ferrous sulphate, excessive sponge ball cleaning produces lacquer-like
films which easily flake away on drying of condenseer.
SCHMITZ recommends the use of cleaning balls without an abrasive layer
TYPE RS for 1 hour per day before ferrous sulphate dosing. This produces
compact, matt brown films, giving an optimum combination of heat
transfer and corrosion resistance. Abrasive balls fully coated TYPE RAT is
very effective for removing the peeled films.

Corrosion Resistant Materials

Although titanium and high performance stainless steels have excellent


resistance to corrosion they are more susceptible to fouling than
copper-base alloys. This can be attributed to the absence of copper-ions,
which are toxic and tend to hinder the formation of bio-fouled layers.
SCHMITZ recommends continuous cleaning type RB scouring balls with 8
to 10 balls passes per tuber per hour. Additionally, a basic charge of
granulated balls Type RG should be circulated every few months to avoid a
possible build-up of a strong adherent fouled layers.

Basic Charge
Basic charge or the number of balls per system is calculated from the number of tubes per pass and the estimated time
interval taken by a ball between two passes of a tube.It is recommended that each tube is cleaned by a sponge ball at an
interval of 5 minutes. For general guidelines,the number of balls to be charged per system is usually around 10% of the total
number of condenser tubes per pass. For batch cleaning system as applicable to Multi Stage Flash distillers,the basic charge
is normally between 30 to 50% of the number of tube per evaporator.

OPERATION & MAINTENANCE MANUAL
FOR BALL RECIRCULATING MONITOR

1 PURPOSE

The GEA-BGR Condenser On Load Tube Cleaning System (COLTCS) maintains the condenser tube
cleanliness and constant heat transfer & corrosion-free operation by engaging sufficient number of
oversize sponge cleaning balls in the system.

GEA-BGR ball recirculating monitor (BRM2K) is stand-alone in operation and a user friendly
instrument. This continuously monitors the sufficient number of cleaning balls in circulation in the
condenser. BRM initiates an alarm when the number of circulating balls falls below the set value
while the preset measuring time elapses.

2 DESIGN

 BRM comprises a compact non-metallic field assembly unit with internal configuration
corresponding to the nominal diameter of the ball transport pipe.

 Ball counting is made free from any mechanical contact with use of light barrier sensor. These
sensors are mounted diametrically opposite in the housing. BRM is an easy and maintenance-free
instrument as no moving parts are involved.

 Ball monitor counter is mounted on the control panel mimic facial for easy operation, which
receives the signals from the field sensor unit and displays the status.

3 PARTS & FUNCTIONS

The sensor emits strong infrared light beam from its light-emitting transmitter, which is received at
the receiver end. Thrubeam type photo sensor is used to measure the change in light quantity caused
by the ball crossing the optical axis.

The photoelectric sensor employs the pulse light emission method, which ensures stable operation
even in strong external light and measures in extremely turbid cooling water flow.

Objects, which are bigger than Dia 10mm are identified as a cleaning object.

DES/OMM/BRM Sheet 3
OPERATION & MAINTENANCE MANUAL
FOR BALL RECIRCULATING MONITOR

Salient feature of BRM2K is capable of handling both Sponge and Abrasive Balls without affecting
the Sensor Assembly, which is protected by toughened glasses. Hence, the sensor need not be
removed while Abrasive balls are in use.

4 PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION

After sponge cleaning balls are circulated in the condenser tubes, balls are retrieved from the main
cooling water outlet stream through Ball Strainer. And this will be recirculated in the ball transport
line using Ball recirculation Pump. Ball recirculating monitor is fixed in the ball transport pipe line.
The balls will be passing through Ball recirculation monitor.

As the sensor is mounted at the middle of housing, all the balls passing through BRM will not be
counted. The balls which interrupts the sensor only will be counted. As the BRM is working on
statistical analysis principle, this sample counting is adequate for satisfactory results.

During commissioning stage GEA BGR engineer will establish the set value by counting the number
of cleaning balls passing the sensor for a duration of 10 minutes. And the set value will be arrived
by various trials and averaging the counts. And this value will be set in the Ball Counter which is
mounted in the control panel.

Ball recirculation Monitor is designed such that whenever the operator switches ‘ON’ the BRM
sensor will ON and continue to count the balls for the duration of 10 minutes and comes to OFF
condition after 10 minutes automatically.

At any point of time during the ball circulation, if the operator wants to ensure the availability of
sufficient quantity of balls in the system, he has to switch ON the BRM MANUALLY. Now BRM
continues to count the balls for the duration of 10 minutes and comes to OFF condition. If the actual
count in the Ball counter meets the set value, it is considered that there is sufficient quantity of
cleaning balls in the system. If it is not met there will be alarm which indicates there is no sufficient
number of balls in the system. Then operator has to intervene and find the root cause for less number
of balls and to replenish with good balls.
