10. Open the recirculation level control valve LV-1250A isolating valves. Start
motor driven condensate pump GM-1005A now the pump is running at total
recycle flow. Now vary level control set point to check the response of LV-1250
A/B. The minimum level control valve has the purpose to make sure that the
pump operates at all times, even if the steam flow to the condenser is in
sufficient or nil. It ensures continuous flow through E-1004 and also prevents
the pump from idle running.
11. Now remove isolation of LV-1250B.
12. Before taking air ejector into service, make sure condensate flow through
E-1004.

obtain vacuum in the main condenser as rapidly as possible when starting
up, all elements of the ejectors can be used in the same procedure noted
above, making sure all inter-stage isolation valves are fully opened.
15. When desired vacuum has been attained, the standby element set should be

Perform proper MS-steam line heating before motive steam opening to air
ejectors
16. Open seal water to hydraulic seal relief valve before vacuum establishment.
17. Open seal steam to glands of natural gas booster compressor turbine
(KT-1003). Also start heating of condensate pump turbine GT-1005B.
18. In a condensing turbine, the labyrinths seal should be put under steam in
order to avoid air entry, resulting in loss of vacuum. Therefore, the steam
pressure at labyrinths, is maintained at 0.1 ~ 0.2 Kg/ cm 2, through sealing
steam pressure control valve. KT-1003 sealing steam pressure is controlled
through two control valves PV-1530 & PV-1535, one surve as dump valve &
other one supply MSU steam at startup to maintain sealing steam pressure
respectively.
NOTE:
Proper heat MSU sealing steam line before taking sealing steam into service.

Detailed description
The sealing steam defends that the air flow into the turbine casing from the turbine
gland.
Before the steam turbine is started up, the surface condenser system is operated and
the steam turbine gland forms a vacuum.
If the air ejector inhaled the air from the turbine gland, a vacuum will drop.
So, sealing steam should be supplied in the turbine gland.
This sealing steam pressure is controlled automatically by the control valves (PV1530, PV-1535)
Those control valves are operated by the air signal from the controller (PIC-1530)
detected the sealing steam pressure.
