tripping / isolating of GT.

224

® communicator link inoperative

Turbine panel communication between the ® control microprocessor and the communication microprocessor has failed

Check the power supply. Replace faulty component.

225

(S) communication link inoperative

Turbine panel communication between the (S) control microprocessor and the communication microprocessor has failed

Check the power supply. Replace faulty component.

226

(T) communication link inoperative

Turbine panel communication between the (T) control microprocessor and the communication microprocessor has failed

Check the power supply. Replace faulty component.

229

Fire detector system trouble

Fire detector problem Check the fire detectors and the electrical circuit. This trouble must be corrected as soon as possible. Note: before this search, the fire protection must be inhibited. Don’t forget to put again in service as soon as the maintenance is finished.

230

Water wash inhibit- wheel-space temp high

>149°C

The washing procedure is inhibited because wheel-space temp is too high

Check temp and wait for an adequate wheel-space temp.

232

Diagnostic alarm. See display

The microprocessor self checking program has uncovered a control problem

Call up diagnostic display.

234

Primary EEPROM changed, not backed up

Operator has changed a EEPROM, but this EEPROM is not backed up

Restore normal conditions.

241Bearing drain temp high

100°C

Bearing or lube oil problem

Check bearings and lube oil system. Check thermocouples and lube oil cooling system.

243 Wheel-space temp differential high

Excessive differential between wheel-space thermocouples

Check thermocouples for shorts, grounds or opens. Replace failures. Ir conditions persist, investigate for

250® high pressure set magnetic pickup fault

A speed magnetic pickup is faulty

Check the magnetic pickup and its signal. Check logic circuit.

251

(S) high pressure set magnetic pickup fault

A speed magnetic pickup is faulty

Check the magnetic pickup and its signal. Check logic circuit.

252

(T) high pressure set magnetic pickup fault

A speed magnetic pickup is faulty

Check the magnetic pickup and its signal. Check logic circuit.

Gas fuel nozzle purge valve improperly close

Changeover to HSD and reset the indication.

Remote alarmsOn the remote desk, there are many alarms that regroup the main alarms on the alarm display of the turbine control panel. These alarm indicating lights are:

GT control system failure Starting sequences failure Auxiliary system failure MCC trouble Fuel trouble Lube oil or turning gear trouble Turbine shaft trouble or trip Flame detecting trouble or trip Exhaust temperature trouble or trip

When an alarm appears on the remoter control desk, one must go in the turbine control compartment for looking the veritable alarm message on the CRT.
