Pre Start-Up Installation Check List
(Cogeneration Systems Burners)

Are your Cogeneration Systems Burners - Duct, In-line, Side Fire or CPF ready for start-up? Use the following items to determine if they are.


Preview of Pre Start-Up Installation Form:
 

Turbine, Fresh Air Fan Systems, Blowers and Dampers

Fact: Without an operational turbine or fresh air fan system providing combustion air, the burner(s) CANNOT be operated.

  • Is the turbine and/or fan operational?
  • If not, when will the turbine and/or fan become operational?
  • If applicable, are all blowers, dampers, and diverters operational?
 

Field Wiring

  • Has wiring between all Coen furnished electrical enclosures completes as shown on Coen's Wiring Schematic Diagrams?
  • Are all damper and diverter position switches wired to Coen supplied control enclosures per Coen Wiring Schematic
    Diagrams?
  • Are all "ship loose" items (See Coen Bill of Materials) wired per Coen's Wiring Schematic Diagrams?
  • Has all wiring to Coen control enclosures been reviewed to verify that all contact requirements have been satisfied?
 

Fluid Systems

Fact: Field installed interconnecting piping between Coen furnished equipment is often filled with debris. The debris will not only delay the start-up, but will also clog burner orifices and damage valve seats and seals.

  • Prior to connecting process lines to Coen equipment, were all fuel, air and steam lines cleansed of all debris?
  • If purging of the gas lines require certification, had certification been obtained?
  • Are strainers provided upstream of Coen furnished piping to prevent entry of foreign materials into fuel control valves, safety devices and burner components?
  • If the burner required atomizing steam, is the steam line trapped to atmosphere assuring a dry steam source?
  • Have drip legs been installed upstream and downstream of the Coen Piping Module to trap and drain turbine exhaust
    condensate in all lines prior to firing the burner?
 

Control Systems

  • If applicable, is a programmable logic controller (PLC) field terminal available on site?
  • If not, should Coen provide a terminal?
 

Testing

  • Are flow measuring devices provided and operable to determine capacity of either the burner or the fired vessel?
  • have the provisions been made for full load testing or venting?
  • Is there an ample fuel supply to operate the burner and pilot(s)?
 

Are qualified operators available for start-up?
