Deaerator Working
Note:-
1. Below 150 MW, Deaerator heating steam is tapped from HPT
at HPT exhaust.(Extraction 6)
2. Above 150 MW, Heating steam supplied from Extraction No
5 from IPT.
3. Above 150 MW, Aux Steam Supply to Main Ejector, Gland
Steam Ejector and sealing steam of Turbine Glands is changed
over from Aux PRDS to Deaerator.
4 Gland leakage Steam from ESV & IV, Drains of Heater No 5
and 6 are also fed to the deaerator.
5. Pegging steam supply is initially from PRDS and changed
over to Extraction 6 at about 100 MW Load.
