Page 7 Rapping System Electromagnetic Gravity Impact Rappers
Product Feature January - March 2014 Electromagnetic Gravity Impact Rapper The dust buildup on the collecting plates and discharge electrodes of the Electrostatic Precipitator (ESP) should be periodically cleared off to allow normal functioning of the ESP and to attain the highest collection effciency. This process of cleaning of dust is called the rapping. One commonly used rapping system is the electromagnetic gravity impact rappers (EGR). EGR is applied to clean the gas distribution screens, collecting plates and discharge electrode. The rappers are located on the roof top of the ESPs. An EGR is made up of electromagnetic coils housed inside steel casing. The energized electromagnetic coil provides a controlled and adjustable lift to its plunger, which is the only movable part of the rapper. The low voltage (110 V dc) pulse energizes the coil, creating a magnetic force which lifts the plunger into the phenolic tube. The plunger returns back due to gravity pull or with the assistance of a spring to strike on the rapper rod which transmits the force to the collecting plates and discharge electrodes, thus successfully shearing the dust buildup into the hopper for disposal. Unlike other types of rapper, the EGR does not have any movable parts present in the gas stream and thus is not exposed to the erosive effects of the gas passing through the ESP. The EGR is located on the ESP rooftop which allows for inspection and servicing without having to shut down the ESP. The rapping frequency and intensity can be easily adjusted with the controller. The EGR parts include: steel casing, solenoid coils, plunger, plunger anvil, sealing boot and steel clamp. Advantages of using electromagnetic gravity impact rapper: Easy accessibility The EGR is located on the roof top of the ESP compartment. Thus, servicing and inspection can be easily carried out during ESP on-line operation. Easy control The rapping force can be easily adjusted according to the ESPs dust loading condition by modifying the parameters in the rapper control panel to control the intensity, rapper height or frequency of each rap. Rugged design The plunger is mounted on cast iron box and protected by a steel casing. This rugged design comes with reliable performance as well as wear resistance.
Longer life The rapper does not have any parts exposed to the erosive effects of the fue gases present in the gas passage, thus, having longer life as compared to other types of rapping system. Product Feature ISSUE 13 Page 2 ESP Water Washing Application Two feld ESP of a glass factory located in Central Taiwan Problem 1.Heavy dust buildup on collecting plates, discharge electrodes, GD screen, inner wall of hopper, inner walkway and rapping system. 2.The traditional method of manual ESP cleaning was time consuming and also ineffcient. 3.Poor operating values due to ineffcient performance. Solution Tai & Chyun proposed the use of an effcient and economical way of ESP cleaning that is by water washing. Water washing preparation includes removal of the ash conveyor system and setting up of the temporary pool to contain the water and dirt. Case Study Buffer Pool Bags for collecting wet dust January - March 2014 Limitation However, there are limitations to ESP water washing. Water washing can be done if there are major repair works to be done in the ESP. ESP water washing is not recommended for short shutdown period. During water washing, the water pressure should be between 5 kg/ m 2 to 10 kg/m 2 . After washing, all the access doors should be kept open in order to allow the ESP to dry up faster. It will take around a day to totally dry up. Then follow the standard start up procedures. The area where to dispose the used water with the dust should be taken into consideration. Benefts Water washing the ESP improved the operating values signifcantly. Also, the collection effciency has increased effciently, especially in the frst feld. Case Study - ESP Water Washing ISSUE 13 Page 4 Discharge Electrode GD Screen Collecting Plate Rapping System Before Before Before Before After After After After Electrostatic precipitator is a highly effcient and cost effective fltration device that collects suspended particulates. But there are some factors that hamper the effciency of the ESP. Let us try to understand these factors. Dust Buildup Troubleshooting Infuencing Factors January - March 2014 Dust Buildup Dust Buildup ESP collects dust particles by charging the dust particles through the corona discharge from the electrodes and attracting the dust towards the collecting plates. The dust particles are then dislodged from the collecting plates into the hoppers with the help of rapping system. Dust buildup is the accumulation of dust on the parts inside the electrostatic precipitator (ESP) like collecting plates, discharge electrodes, GD screen, inner wall, hopper, etc. These buildups can adversely affect the performance of the ESP. The main causes of dust buildup are as follows: 1. Back corona due to fuel/dust characteristic and rapping control buildups on DE
2. Poor electrode cleaning caused by Failure of rapping system parts Infrequent cleaning interval Weak cleaning energy Loose electrodes 3. Wet and sticky nature of dust 4. Operation at temperatures below gas dew point level
5. Slow gas fow velocity
6. Imbalanced air distribution
7. Air leakages Dust buildup on collecting plate will lead to heavy sparking thus suppressing voltage and current. Buildup on discharge electrode will limit the formation of corona thus resulting to low current. GD screens dust buildup will cause blockage in gas distribution which in turn reduces the collecting effciency caused by misdistribution of gas fow across the ESP. Dust on insulators can cause tracking leading to breakage. VI curves can be used to evaluate whether there is dust buildup in your ESP. ESP inspection can help identify not only the sources of the dust buildup but the causes as well. The ESP inspection is the most effective way to determine the root causes so the dust buildup problems are addressed to properly. ISSUE 13 Page 6 Troubleshooting - Dust Buildup Discharge Electrodes Access Door GD Screen Rapping System Dust Buildup Area: January - March 2014 Question: How to maintain ESP during outage ? Answer: Here are some of the practices that should be done... Electrical testing (including open circuit test, TR set insulation testing, heater resistance measurement, etc) Replacement of access door sealing. Expert inspection should be done on every maintenance outage even if the system is working well during operation. Recommended mechanical repair works and replacement of damage parts should be done after a detailed inspection. Being updated with the emerging technology is also important since ESP has a certain range of service life. Upgrade plan is a good step to take especially after 10-15 years of service years. Question: What will happen if ESP is facing serious spark problem? Answer: Serious spark problem will limit the operating voltage and re- sulting in temporary degradation of collection effeciency of the ESP. Other damages caused by sparks can also be seen from time to time in ESP felds but such damages are easily overlooked or mistaken as being caused by other problems. Question: What caused voltage (kV) and current (mA) to drop and , cant go up? How to overcome low voltage warning? Answer: Drop in kV and mA is caused by spark/arc. These parameters are limited by spark/arc so it is proper to do complete inspection to fnd out the cause of the sparking/arcing. If there is no spark/arc but the kV and mA still cannot increase, then the controller limit settings should be checked: mA limit, kV limit, or fring angle. Low mA and kV correspond to low power to the ESP and this would mean a low collecting effciency leading to high dust emissions. Question: Why do SCR often break down? Answer: If the problem only happens in one control panel, then the SCRs insulation to panel and other electrical components such as contactor, fuse, over-current protection device (if present), and even cables/bus bars and their connection should be checked. This could also indicate a damaged CLR since the CLR is the one that protects the SCR by limiting the current. If problem happens in all the panels, it could be supply problem. If the SCR model has been replaced before with its equivalent, then it would be better to recheck again the equivalent model. Question: What are the characteristics of cracked support insula- tor caused by electrical/mechanical? Answer: Cracked support insulators can be caused by an unbalanced discharge electrode suspension system or electrical tracking on the sup- port insulators. Damaged support insulator caused by electrical stress will leave burn mark around the cracking line. ISSUE 13 Page 7 Free Gift In this 2014, we would like to introduce a Q&A session.
