RIVI DESIGN AND MANUFACTURE LUBE OIL SYSTEMS FOR API 611 STEAM TURBINES, FOR PETRO-CHEMICAL PLANT IN CHINA

A new lube oil system have been designed in the technical department of RIVI, for Sinopec Project, sited in China. In this case, the lube oil units are going to be manufactured to lubricated the bearings of Main Boiler Feed Water Pumps, driven by Steam Turbines, according to API 611.
Then, the design of LOS have been in compliance with the API 611, chapter referred about lubrication. Powder of BFW is 1.500 Kw.

Flow needed for the bearings of the pump, gear box and steam turbine is 95 lts/min. Power dissipated 37 kw.

As you can see in the pictures, our technical department develops the complete performance with 3D tools.

Lube Oil System will be manufactured on Stainless Steel. Piping quality Sch 40. For the rest of the components, you can check the data-sheets as follow:

- Weld-pad level indicator

- Level Switch, acc. ATEX EEx d IIC T6

- Temperature Indicator

- Temperature Switch for Electrical Heater (W3 type)

Thanks for your attention, one more time.

I await your comments !

API 614, CH. 3 FOR PETRO-CHEMICAL PLANT IN CHINA

A new project to lubricate the bearings of High Pressure pump and Driver is being designed for the Chinesse Company Sinopec. In this case, an API 614, chapter 1 & 3 with a flow rate for ISO VG 32 oil, 50 lts/min, is needed. The lube oil system include the following characteristics:

- Oil reservoir made of AISI 304, designed in accordance to the definition of the levels included in API 614 (amplianced to chapter 2, to provide more safety).

You can link directly with the datasheets of the components.

- Weld pad level gage, type UWR.

- Level transmitter, differential pressure type, 2" ANSI flanged.

- Bimetallic Thermometers, heavy duty series, stainless steel.

- Globe valves, CFM8 body, AISI 316 trim, ANSI 150 lbs.

- Pressure gauges, 0-16 kg/cm2, 4 1/2" dial diam.

- Excess pressure valve / relief valve, 1" ANSI 150 lbs.

- Oil-Water cooler, constructed according with TEMA C, ASME VIII, Div. 1.

- Duplex oil Filter, ASME VIII, Div 1, 20 microns of filtration grade.

- Differential pressure gauge, 0-2.5 kg/cm2 to filter clogging indication.

- Pressure transmitter, with digital indicator.

- Main lube oil pump, screw type, shaft-driven.

Nowadays the system is still manufacturing in RIVI work-shop, and it will be delivered the next January.
