2.11.5 Flame Failure At an Elewation

Closing of trip valves on H.O., : Do not attempt to introduce ignitors or oil guns at

Sudden decrease of mill feeder : Trip out the coal mills of feeding elevation where
speeds to minimum "No flame" condition is persisting. Allow sometime
for purging then introduce oil support adjacent to
working mills until furnace flame is stabilised.

Too low or too high windbox Check that secondary air windbox dampers are

2.11.6.One Fan Trips (Other in Service)

It is presumed that I.D./F.D./P.A. fan de-interlocking switches are on "Interlock" position.

Fan Bearing temperature high : i) Take draft control or manual,
