auxiliaries and 25TE5009-5010 at Boiler) for and the signals transmitted to the PLC system. The water then gets cooled in the cooling tower and collected in the cooling tower basin. Cooling tower drives shall be operated through HMIs located in the control room. Ten (10) nos. (25 CT 5001- 5010)(9 working + 1 stand-by) of cooling tower cells are considered to meet the cooling water requirement. Two (2) nos. of RTD temperature sensors (25TE5001-5002) are provided in the outlet of the cooling tower basin to measure the cold water temperature. If the temperature is within the pre-set range, number of fans of the cooling tower cells will operate as per the requirement. In case the temperature falls below the pre-set limit, the cooling tower cell fan operation will be stopped (stopping through auto operation or by manual intervention).If the temperature increases beyond the set point the stand-by cell will start automatically to meet the desired cooling water temperature . Each cooling tower fan motor (25 CT 5001- 5010) shall be interlocked with vibration monitoring system (vibration switch 25VS50015010) as well as oil level switch (25LS5001-5010) in the gear box. In the event of excessive vibration, the respective fan motor will trip. Also a signal will be generated from the PLC to trip the fan motor at low oil level in the gear box. When any of the fan motors trips, alarm as well as trip indication will be generated in the PLC HMI. When any one of the fan motor trips (25 CT 5001- 5010), the stand by cell fan motor (25 CT 5001- 5010) will start automatically. The PLC HMI has the facility that the operator can select the fan motor of any one cell as stand by. We can run the total system either in AUTO/ MANUAL in Remote manual/Auto mode. Recirculation Pump house: The fore bay of the recirculating water pump house is provided with two (2) nos (25 LIT 5001 -5002) of ultrasonic type level measurement to monitor the water level.

Backwash inlet valve: Close Backwash outlet valve: Close (Please note that the tag nos will be finalised after placement of order) Makeup Water circuit: The makeup water will be tapped from the terminal point as agreed in the contract. Motorised isolation valve (25V5157) will be provided in the makeup water line to fore bay with flow measurement (25FE 5011 & 25FIT5011) to monitor the flow. The motorised valve with modulating actuator on the makeup water inlet to fore bay will be interlocked with the level transmitters (25 LIT 5001-5002) provided in the fore bay. At low water level the valve will fully open and at high water level the valve will be in fully closed position. The makeup water line is continuously monitored using differential pressure transmitter with flow element (25FE 5011 & 25FIT5011) and the flow value being transmitted to the PLC. Blow down circuit: A part of the return hot water coming to the cooling tower will be led in to existing gravity return network near PBS-1, TG-0 to maintain the cycle of concentration (COC) of the circulating cooling water at 5. This system will have flow measurement (25FE 5004 & 25FIT5004) and a motorised valve (25V5013) to control the flow. The quantity of blow down will depend upon the evaporation loss from the cooling tower and the COC. Chemical dosing system: A chemical dosing system is provided to maintain the quality of the circulating cooling water so that it will neither corrode nor form scales on the surfaces of the parts being cooled or the pipes through which it flows. It will also prevent fouling of heat exchanger elements and growth of algae in the cooling tower. Chemical dosing system usually consists of dosing tank, agitator (25M---) and two nos of transfer pumps (25M---). The actual details will depend upon the design of the chemical dosing system supplier.
