Employment Information

Job Summary:

To ensure the safe, vibration-free, and efficient operation of the Steam Turbine and the Turbine Auxiliary Systems (Condenser, CW Pumps, Feed Pumps, Gland Sealing, and Lubrication).

Key Responsibilities:

Turbine Operations:

  • Oversee turbine rolling, synchronization, and loading/unloading operations.
  • Monitor key parameters: Vibration, Bearing Temperature, Eccentricity, and Differential Expansion.

Preventive & Breakdown Maintenance:

  • Plan and execute maintenance of the Turbine Governing System, LP/HP Bypass systems, and Turning Gear.
  • Coordinate specialized jobs such as Turbine Blade inspection, Bearing replacement, and Shaft Alignment (Laser alignment).

Auxiliary Systems Management:

  • Manage the maintenance of Condensate Extraction Pumps, Boiler Feed Pumps (BFP), and Cooling Water systems.
  • Ensure proper vacuum is maintained in the Condenser by managing air extraction systems and cleaning tubes.

Reliability Engineering:

  • Conduct vibration analysis and perform balancing of rotating parts.
  • Analyze oil samples (FERROGRAPHY) to detect early wear of turbine bearings and journal.

Safety & Critical Systems:

  • Ensure the Emergency Trip System (ETS) and overspeed protection mechanisms are tested regularly.
  • Manage high-pressure steam leaks using proper leak sealing techniques.

Competencies:

  • Expert level knowledge of Steam Path Audit and Turbine efficiency calculations.
  • Proficiency in hydraulic and pneumatic control systems for valves.
  • Strong experience in water chemistry relative to Boiler Feed Water (to prevent scaling in turbine stages).

Qualifications:

  • B.E./B.Tech in Mechanical Engineering.
  • 12–18 years of experience, with mandatory experience in Steam Turbine maintenance (preferably 100MW+ units).
