QUALITY REQUIREMENTS
1.
Scope
The present specification regulates the quality requirements relating to the water-steam
cycle (WSC) in steam turbines.
The specification is binding for the operation of MAN TURBO AG steam turbines that are
operated with "salt-free" feed water, injection water and main steam.
Definition of saltfree water (TRD 611):
Saltfree water is water with an electrolyte content corresponding to a conductivity of
< 0.2 S/cm (measured downstream of strongly acid sampling cation exchanger) and a
silicic acid (SiO2) concentration < 0.020 mg/L.
In addition to this specification, the instructions in the operating manual also apply.
The regulations regarding operating modes in this specification are based largely on the
technical rules and regulations of the VGB and VdTV.
2.
VGB guideline for boiler feed water, boiler water and steam of steam generators over
68 bar permissible operating pressure - VGB-R 450 L -
Purpose
In order to ensure trouble-free operation of the water-steam cycle (WSC) of the plant it is,
among other factors, essential to maintain operation in compliance with the respective
chemical requirements.
This specification is designed to achieve coordination between operator and steam turbine
manufacturer and to provide all contracting parties with a concept for the implementation of
and compliance with quality assurance measures.
Water and steam quality must not be considered just in terms of individual plant
components but should always be considered in relation to the overall water-steam cycle.
Under certain circumstances this may result overall in more stringent requirements than
demanded by the individual component.
This specification contains minimum quality requirements for boiler feed water, injection
water, main steam and turbine condensate with the aim of ensuring high availability of the
steam turbine installation, particularly in terms of formation of the necessary protective
coating, avoidance of increased deposits and corrosion to the plant components.
In this context particular attention needs to be paid to the quality of the injection water for
steam temperature regulation. Its quality must correspond to that of saltfree feed water and
must not contain solid alkalising materials that would precipitate on the turbine blading.

1)
2)
The desired continuous operating mode value can only be achieved in conjunction with
condensate demineralisation.
3)
Compliance with pH values for the various component materials is described in Point 3.4.
It should be pointed out that with aluminium base materials and a pH operating mode of
pH 8, a specific metered addition of oxygen (O2) is required in order to provide the plant
components with sufficient protection from corrosion.
4)
5)
Monitoring of the Cu values in water can be dispensed with if the WSC is free of copper
base materials.
6)
In the view of the steam turbine manufacturer, it is essential that the "boiler feed
water, main steam condensate and injection water" measuring points (in addition to
other measuring points) are present.

QUALITY REQUIREMENTS
Monitoring of the most significant parameters for the water-steam cycle, particularly
measurement of the electrical conductivity downstream of a strongly acid cation exchanger,
should be performed with an online recording device.
Condensate return:
Appropriate measures must be taken to ensure that the turbine condensate returned to the
feed water tank / boiler meets the quality requirements for boiler feed water.

If during start-up mode the conductivity value of < 0,2 S/cm is not maintained over an
uninterrupted period of several days, then the oxygen content is to be limited to a value
of < 0.020 mg/kg during this period.
If the conductivity value of < 0.2 S/cm is maintained during start-up operation, then the
oxygen content values for continuous mode shall apply during start-up mode.
Wherever it is possible to improve steam purity over and above the guide values, this
should be the objective for continuous operating mode.

Start-up mode
During initial commissioning of new installations and during start-up mode it is not always
possible to immediately achieve or to maintain the guide values shown in Table 1.
In the event of these plant conditions "action values" shall apply for a transitional period
that enable commissioning or continued operation of the installation even though the
parameters are outside the guide values and continuous operating mode values shown in
Table 1.

MAN TURBO AG recommends starting up the turbine with values < action value 2 in
order to avoid a reduction in efficiency and impairment of service life. A downward
trend in the measured values should be noticeable.
