A. Diagram of Cooler Control Gear, Drwg. no. 3-459-62-00166 (Rev.02)

General
1.

It is observed that the provision of 2 nos. running & 1no. standby fan motor and 1
no. running and 1 no. standby pump motor has been made. However, automatic
changeover from running to standby motor and vice versa is not clear from the
furnished drawing. This needs to be clarified/ explained.

2.

The proper identification of main & standby fan motor and pump motor has not
been provided. The same needs to be done & incorporated suitably in the control
circuitry.

3.

It may be confirmed that the fan motor & pump motor shall be capable to operate
for 10 min. at 75% of rated voltage (415V) and normal operation at 85%. Further,
the motor rating in the part list may also be modified accordingly.

4.

It may be confirmed that only two (2) fans and one pump will operate in auto mode
since it appears in the schematic /logic diagram that all the three fans will operate
simultaneously.

5.

The basis of considering the various temperature limits for very high tripping,
alarms, start & closing of cooling system may be explained.

Sheet 02 of 17
1.

The phase reference indicated for terminal F41-1 may be corrected as B instead
of Y.

2.

For input terminals to heater circuit i.e. terminal X1- 8&9 , the zone reference may
be corrected as 202 instead of 203.

Sheet 05 & 06 of 17
1.

It is observed that the logic condition to actuate time delay relay K53X & K54X
have not been indicated in the drawing. The same may be indicated.

Sheet 07 of 17
1.

It is understood that whenever any thermal/ overload relay (KM1 to KM6 or KM21
to KM24) is operating both the auxiliary contactors K49 & K50 picked up which in
turn close the contacts K49 & K50 indicated in zone A-705 and thus fan motor &
pump motor thermal/ overload trip indication & alarm will be initiated. As the same
is not desirable and therefore needs to be reviewed.

2.

The terminal no. of terminal board TB-X88 connecting with terminals of TB X2

may be indicated.

3.

The redundancy for 220 V DC supply has not been provided. The provision of same
may also be considered.
The terminals 1 to 6 of TB-X88(RTCC panel) have been used for Fan ON
indication as well as for selector switch S42 on sheet 05 & 06 of 17. This may be

4.

reviewed/ reconciled. Further, the terminal nos. TB X88-29 & 30 have been used for
supply system for RTCC under zone A-1101. This may also be corrected.
5.

The terminals for 220 V DC supply have been indicated as X81-5 & 7. However,
under reference zone 1101, the same have been indicated as X81-6 &8. This may be
reconciled/ corrected.

6.

The name & location of TB-X81 may be indicated on the relevant sheets.

Sheet 08 of 17
1.

The alarm signal to RTCC panel for Cooler Power Supply Fail and No flow or
reverse flow of oil in oil pump may also be included in the Alarms list.

Sheet 09 of 17
1.

The provision for Power Failure Alarm System may also be considered for DGA
system (F60).

2.

indicated in this drawing.

2.

The equipment represented by symbol in PT sensor unit R1, R2 & R3 may be

identified & may be included in legends/ graphics symbols table.

3.

The CT nomenclature indicated in various sheets and part list needs to be reconciled
and corrected.

Sheet 13 of 17
1.

The destination of signals from terminals 37 to 48 of TB- X2 has been shown as To

RTCC Panel. The same may be corrected as To SCADA.

2.

The sheet grid reference for wires terminated at various terminal block may be
indicated as agreed.

3.

The destination of signals from terminals 51 to 60 of TB-X2 has been shown as To

SCADA. The same may be corrected as To RTCC Panel.

4.

The terminal block TB XE (1-6) & phase bar TB X6 has not been indicated. The
same may be suitably shown in the drawing.

5.

Under zone C-1207, the source of DC power supply indicated as from P91 may be
corrected as from P90.

Sheet 15,16 &17 of 17

1.

Against item no. 14, the Cooler Control Switch (S41) has been indicated as 3
WAY. However, the same has been indicated as 4 WAY in sheet 05 & 06 of 17.
This needs to be reconciled.

2.

The symbol for space heater indicated in the graphic symbol table is not matching
with that shown in the drawing. The same may be corrected.

3.

Against item no. 15, the rating of Rotary Switch (S1 to S6 & S21 to S24) indicated
as 440 V may be reviewed/ corrected. Further, the indication 3 WAY may also be
reconciled.

4.

The quantities of item no. 59 & 60 indicated as 14 nos. may be reconciled with
drawing & corrected accordingly. Further, the signal lamp H1 to H15 may be
indicated separately for fan, motor & other indication.

The item X7 indicated at sl. no. 28 has not been shown in the drawing. The same
may be reviewed/ reconciled.

6.

Against item no. 62, the rating of Pump Selector Switch (S42) indicated as
2WAY. However, the same has been indicated as 4 WAY in sheet 05 & 06 of 17.
This needs to be reconciled.
