What is Extendor?
Advanced design Combustion hardware that allows you to EXTEND HOURS Between Combustion Inspections
Starts have different wear mechanisms so Extendor does not extend starts intervals for CI

Eliminate Combustion Inspections !

Extendor Benefits
Availability- Eliminate 4 CI in 6 years extra 20 days availability Generation- Extra MWHr each year. Extra Steam each year. Penalty Savings- Avoid penalties in Gas Take or Pay Contracts Repair Cost Savings- Reduce CI repair costs by up to 66% Services Cost Savings- Reduce CI craft labor & TA costs by 66% Repair Shipping Savings Reduce CI repair shipping by 66% Reliability Improvement- Less restart problems and less time off site for CI parts. Also less testing such as overspeed.

Fuel Gas Re-Commissioning

Gas change leads to design changes
Fuel nozzle
Sized for nominal gas composition Nozzles are capable of handling +/- 5% Modified Wobbe Index variation from nom Wrong sized nozzles lead to combustion dynamics and hardware damage
Gas Valves
Sized for supply pressure and composition Incorrect valve sizing can limit load
Gas Piping
Sized for nominal gas composition Increases in inert % such as N2, CO2 may require piping redesign Incorrect piping sizing can limit load
