Start-up

The Start up Sequence is available at the Start up STG windows for each unit. If
the term required on the sequence has been full filled, the status will be declare as
‘DONE’ and the sequence will go to the next step automatically. When a Function
Group (FG) is still OFF, the sequence will automatically make it ON.
Below are the Start-up mode based on Metal Temperature of Turbine casing:
- Cold Start Condition : Tm < 220 degC
- Warm Start Condition : Tm < 420 degC
- Hot Start Condition : Tm > 420 degC

Check for instrument air and service air are available.

Check the availability of cooling water.

Open the cooling water valves before and after the lube oil cooler and venting
valves are open. Open the cooling water valves before and after the control oil
cooler and venting valves are open. Open the cooling water valves before and
after the generator cooler and venting valves are open. Make sure that there is
water flow in the cooler.
