Situation after removal of the old generator

Old generator put aside after 55 years of service

Based on the original drawings, the generator should fit in here…

Taking down the old cast iron frame
Some parts did not give in that easy….

3D laser measurement - step 1
A Sokkia totalsystem is used to measure the existing situation in relation to the Centre Line of the steam-turbine and coupling
Laser reference points are positioned in the area eshtablishing a 3D ‘space’
Within this space the exact position of the coupling and cavity are recorded, all within 0.1mm accuracy

Physical CL’s are tightened for days the laser is not available

Special, heavy consoles were designed
![Page 11: Re powering generator](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081516/559a718e1a28ab07548b4677/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

Thorough calculations resulted in 4 consoles each one to be anchored with 4 pcs M36x765 bolts
![Page 12: Re powering generator](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081516/559a718e1a28ab07548b4677/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

Anchor-calculation
Approved
Elongation is increased with a 100
mm spherical bush
![Page 13: Re powering generator](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081516/559a718e1a28ab07548b4677/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

Anchorpockets and jackplates are set by means of a template
The drilled 12 mm holes indicate the centre-points of pockets and jackplates
![Page 14: Re powering generator](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081516/559a718e1a28ab07548b4677/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

More accurate cutting with diamond drills
Due to the length, (∅100-L500) and instability of the drill it is impossible to get it centered precisely
For this reason we made a small assisting plate and pin
Steps:
Put pin in 12 mm holeSlide plate over pinPosition diamond drill over plateDrill 10 mm deepLift up the drill and remove plate and pinContinue drilling 0.5 mm less than
inside diam. of diamond teeth

Then it is easy going!
4 of the holes to be drilled correspond with the old square pockets

Jackplates
A ∅12 pin was welded underneath the jackplates, preventing them to move, then fixed to the concrete with Phillybond #6 and levelled
On the edge of the void an extra support bracket was mounted for safety
Each console weights 600 kg set on just 4 jackscrews

3D measurement - step 2
Each console is levelled with a spiritlevel (0.02/1000) and positioned within 0.1 mm accuracy by means of the Sokkia 3D (‘Geo-’)laser
The centrepoints (X,Y,Z) of 2 M36 threaded holes were set ≤ 0.1mm
To point out the centre of each hole, a M36 stub with sharp tip was used
![Page 18: Re powering generator](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081516/559a718e1a28ab07548b4677/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
19
All measurements were set according to the footprint & CL drawing

Grouting of the M36 anchors with Chockfast Red®
In the meantime the wooden + metal shuttering is mounted
The old pockets run through the angled foundation and needed to be closed with wood
Jackbolts and anchors are covered with armaflex and tape to avoid adhesion of the grout

22
Consoles aligned, grouted and anchored

With the floor repaired, the cavity is waiting for the generator
Will it fit?
![Page 22: Re powering generator](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081516/559a718e1a28ab07548b4677/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
24
Yes it does, exactly as intended
![Page 23: Re powering generator](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081516/559a718e1a28ab07548b4677/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
