hi guys,
great work going on here.let's keep it up.
please,i need some help.we currently operate four 3MW Ruston TB5400 DUAL fuel diesel /gas turbines for our electrical power supply needs.the turbines were upgraded to diesel/gas from diesel alone in 1998 and they were actually installed in 1981.
the problem now is that after running the units on diesel,for us to raise them on gas again,we need to change or clean the BURNERS as there would be deposits of carbon on the burners.this actually takes a very long time,as we'll need to wait for the machine to cool down.
has anyone experienced these same problems or similar ones?what line of action/solutions did you apply?any suggestions from anybody?i am really bothered and i have to tackle this project.
also,does anyone have any maintenance program/job routine that i can apply to improve the availability of these units?
thanking you all.keep up the good work.
