INTERMEDIATE TRAY INSPECTION POINTS | TOWER INTERNALS

TRAY PANEL INSTALLATION

Procedure	Hold points
– Preparation Remove Catapac from platform, Trolley A & B. All panels must be clean, dry, free of rust. All nozzles covered with plastic cap and adhesive tape. Splash plate in place installed at ground. Blank off sample points and equilibrium device nozzle with blind flange and new gaskets.	Dry air in service Panel conditions at ground Panel nozzle covers Gasket type
– Cleanliness During panel installation, avoid any sieve surface disturbing and ensure there is no foreign material falling down into the sieve bed. Remove tape/cap covering threaded holes just before panel positioning. Leave the piece of rope until stud bolt screwing.	Upper face of beams Upper face of support rings Upper face of annular chambers hreaded holes (main beams and secondary beams)
– Panel lower screen Before positioning, each panel lower screen must be inspected carefully with a flash light ( damages done during handling) – Flatness and stability of panels Check the good contact between panels, beams and support rings. If there is any rocking, insert and tack weld shim plate on outside edge f the frame.	Panel 1A to 8B
– Gap between panels Install spacers for positioning and maintain the position with clamps.	Gap between panels must be 15 mm max.
– Gap between panels and shell Maintain a minimum gap on shell side for the rope.	Gap between panels and shell must be 10 mm min.

TRAY PANEL FIXING

Procedure	Hold points
– Preparation Once all panels are properly installed, clear one by one the tap hole for stud bolt. Clean the tap hole blowing dry air.	Panel positioning especially around bolting slots. Cleanness of tap holes Cleanness of stud bolt/ nuts
– Stud bolt screwing Once a tap hole is clear and inspected, start screwing stud bolts. In the event that bolting is not possible, check the cleanness or try another stud bolt. Stud bolt must be entirely screwed up (tips should not be higher than frame upper edges to allow seal plate welding).	Stud bolt height within frame
– Bolting Install washer and bolt the nut maintaining the bolt from its tip. Tackweld bolt and nut.	Bolt tightening New washers to be used

ROPE PACKING

Procedure	Hold points
– Rope packing : Rope packing must be done following the attached procedure.	Wrapping & condition (clean and dry) & type & diameter Quality of Rope cutting ( cut clean through) No free space
– Rope packing between panels The first row must be packed carefully against the rope arrestor in order to prevent the rope going through it.	Last row of rope must be flush to upper edge of panel frame. Gap after rope packing : 15 mm Max
– Rope packing between panels and center pipe Install 1 row of rope to compensate the height of rope arrestor. If clearance between center pipe and panels is larger than 15 mm, then install 30 mm and 8 mm diameter ropes if necessary. If clearance smaller than 8 mm, then install 8 mm diameter rope.	Rope packing between center pipe and new angle plates
– Rope packing between panels and shell Install I row of rope to compensate the height of rope arrestor. If clearance between shell and panels is larger than 15 mm, then install 30 mm and 8 mm diameter ropes if necessary. If clearance smaller than 8 mm, then install 8 mm diameter rope. Complete the rope filling up to the top of panel frames.	Last row of rope must be properly Inserted.
– Rope packing around stud bolt Fill all space around stud bolt	Packing all around stud bolts.

UPPER TRAY SEALING: SEAL PLATE & SEAL ANGLE PLATE WELDING

Procedure	Hold points
– Seal cover plate welding on panel frame Follow typical sequence of tack-welding: tackweld point pitch= 150 mm Then continuous welding to tight the tray	Dye test checking
