Features and Benefits
The standard control system provides:
- Monitoring of the pump train and lube oil system with permissive starts, vibration and temperature alarms, and shutdowns
- Safety interlocks for the drill stem, decoking valve and isolation valves
- Disabling of the hoist at high and low in-drum positions when cutting is in progress
- Display of cutting tool elevation and drill stem position
- Hoist cable tension with under and over tension setpoints that disable hoist movement
- Discharge pressure of the pump
- Rotational speed indication of the drill stem
Options
- Integration of TUD to cutting system controls, thereby eliminating the need for two PLCs
- Triple modular redundant processors
- DCS communication
- Flowserve RedRaven drum monitoring to assure complete cutting
- Remote and automated cutting capabilities
Vibration monitoring
- An essential part of remotely operated coke cutting systems from Flowserve
- Permanently mounted vibration sensors provide a high signal-to-noise ratio to provide more accurate readouts.
- RedRaven processes vibration signals and provides clear visualization of coke removal status.
- Complete integration with the decoking control system enables full automation of the cutting process.
- Operator display indicates:
- Drum cleanliness
- Cutting tool position
- Cable tension
- Drill stem rotational speed
- Control valve position
- Drum selection
- Diagnostic information
Audio monitoring
- An essential part of remotely operated coke cutting systems from Flowserve
- Provides the familiar noise operators have relied on for decades to confirm a clean drum
- Converts the vibration signal from the vibration monitoring system to an audio noise in the cutting shelter
Video monitoring
- An essential part of remotely operated coke cutting systems from Flowserve
- Area-rated video cameras are placed on the cutting deck to give the operator a view of the top of the coked drum.
- Cameras also monitor the chute to provide feedback on drum cleaning, while others provide a view of cutting operations from across the coke pit.
- Proven thermal camera technology is available for steamy environments to help see the coke, even when the naked eye fails.
- All cameras have full tilt and pan capabilities and deliver video signals to remote cutting locations on two or more monitors.
