SITE OBSERVATIONS PT DAY 1 DT 29-01-12
1. The provided air blowing cap dispensing mechanism in the cap applicator machine, attimes have unsatisfactory cap dispensing. As the provided caps are push fit type, therefore
the caps have loose seating on the centre valve. Later on KC changes the blowingmechanism with the pneumatically operated pusher rod which reduces the number of sortouts at SMS. As indicated in the Count Tabulation Sheet, the numbers of sort outs cylindersat SMS due to ineffective capping with air blowing mechanism before the time out were147 in 1 hour and 39 minutes while after installing the pushing rod the figure was 36 in 2hours and 21 minutes.
2. Frequent cap falling was observed when the cap blown from the loading tray magazine intothe bell.
3. It was observed that the ET-PT needed to be restarted after the sorting of every other 2 or 3cylinders.
4. The Automatic Cap Applicator stops and is needed to be restarted because if it detects thatcap is not blown to the dispensing bell.
5. At the emptying rack, C-type emptying heads are not installed and for this reason cylindersrejected by ET-PT could not be evacuated. KC is required to provide the missing heads.
6. There is a hole on the floor in the filling hall near the Automatic Cap Applicator machineon which a checker plate is placed to cover it. KC needs to explain the reason for thisunsealed hole as there is a possibility of gas residing inside.
7. Expansion joint filler/caulk material/cork fibre from the floor joint by the floor portion nearthe cap applicator machine is missing. KC is required to provide the same.
8. It has been also observed that there was an earth wire disconnected over one of the head ofET-GD.
9. KC took the time out for replacing the air blowing system for dispensing the caps over thecylinder with the pushing rod on the ACA. Later on when the test was resumed after 94mins. it was discovered that some maintenance works was also carried out on the ET-PTmachine which took the longer time than the approved 30 mins.
10. It was observed that the Steam sealing machine centring arms were coming hard onto thecylinder at the SMS causing caps tilting or falling off from the valve of the cylinder due towhich cylinders comes out from the SMS either without the caps or caps with impropersealing.

11. ET-PT machine was found to sort out the cylinders falsely as the rejected cylinders whenchecked were found to have both of the gaskets intact.
12. The Electrical MCC of the Plant was found to be bolted with only one Allen Bolts. KC is
advised to bolt the door of the MCC Panel with all of the required bolts while the LPGfilling is progress.
13. On the sort out (roller) conveyors, locking pins for the rollers are missing. KC to look intothe matter.
14. No proper stopper has been provided at the end of each roller conveyor to avoid tilting andfalling down of the cylinder on the ground during the circuit run. KC is required to providea suitable height stopper at the end.
15. At Stand 4 of Palletizer, one side of the loading sensor (Buffer) table requires a wear plateor stopper to be installed to counter cylinder slippage in the opposite direction of chainconveyor motion, can be caused by the dis-aligned cylinders row push by the pusher.Thestopper or wear plate should be the same as provided on conveyor portion in front of stand6.
16. Optical sensor installed, at the Stand 2 (Un-stacker table) for sensing the incoming palletstack required one more bolt at the bracket on which it is installed, so that the position withrespect to the line sight of reflector could not get change for any reason.
17. Cable tray portion running above the downstream of SMS machine, have supports morethan 3 meters apart causing a sag in the tray. KC is required to provide another support inthe middle to remove the sag as agreed on site.
18. Cable tray drop at the steam generation machine has vibration because of the longer armdrop from above and only anchored at the floor. KC is required to provide the support asagreed on site.
19. The tender requirement for the palletizer removing stand i.e. stand 9 could not be verifiedwhich says that when the forklift driver completely removes the filled cylinder pallet stackonly then the system should allow the waiting pallet at stand 8 to move on to stand 9. Itseems that either the interlock is not based on the signals from the optical sensor installedto detect the presence of forklift or the detection range of the optical sensor is not enough.It is understood that the detecting the presence of an object/forklift should be equal to thelength of the arms of the forklift. KC to look into the matter for identification of the
problem and share the corrective measure taken in this regard. During the test fulfilment ofthe tender requirement could not be verified and it seems that the transition of pallets fromstand 8 to stand 9 is based on some time delay & not on some interlock of the stand 9Induction sensor & optical sensor.

3.4 STOPPAGES RECORDS
3.4.1 PALLET PLANT
Time Reason of stoppage :
PALLETIZINGUNIT
RECORDS(for
performanceevaluation)
Stop at : 1043 hrs
Palletizing/loading operation stops at stand 6 as no empty pallet wasavailable at Stand 5 to move to stand 6, this is because of unloadingoperation halted and waiting to be resume at stand 4 once theunloaded cylinder row at buffer (loading sensor) moves towardcarousel inlet which was in turn waiting on inlet module to startinjecting the cylinders into the carousel. To break the cycle anempty pallet was put by forklift operator at stand 5 so that loadingoperation at stand 6 resumes. Introduction of Empty pallet at stand5 takes 32 sec by the forklift operator.
Start at : 1043 hrs
Stop at : 1045 hrsPalletizer operation was disrupted from stand 3 to stand 5 becausethe locking jacks failed to engage the pallets in time to stop them atthe designated position on stands 3, 4, & 5 even the empty cylinder
pallet transition from stand 3 to stand 4 was a complete failure andall the pallets moving on the transfer path on these stands getsentangled with each other. Forklift was employed to remove allthese pallets form the transfer path and CUC was reset. The losttime was 4 min 14 sec.
Start at : 1049 hrs
Stop at : 1124 hrsBecause of cylinder jamming at the Inlet conveyor palletizingoperation stops at stand 6 as the buffer at stand 5 has no empty
pallet to move on as waiting on stand 4 to release the empty pallet
after unloading the cylinders. It takes 35sec to resume loading atstand 6 once the operation of unloading at stand4 gets completednormally
Start at : 1125 hrs
Stop at : 1146 hrs Inlet module stops injecting cylinders into carousel causing jamming at inlet conveyor which in turns halted the unloadingoperation at table 4 as no room to push the new row of cylinders onthe conveyor. After 37 secs operation resumes.Start at : 1147 hrs
Stop at : 1256 hrs At Stand 4 i.e. Unloading Table; bad pallet lifting bar gets jammedin one of the pallet resting hook, on operator intervention takes 20sec to release the bar from the resting hook.Start at : 1257 hrs
Stop at : 1259 hrsRemoval of bad pallet from stand 5 by the forklift operator. 14 sec lost time in the resumption of Stand 6 operation.

SITE OBSERVATIONS PT DAY 2 DT 30-01-12
1. It was observed that some cylinders were received during the third half hour without capsafter Steam Sealing Machine.
2. The cap bundles placement was found to be improper on the cap feeding unit tray of theAutomatic Cap Applicator and the KC operator had to adjust manually the placement ofthe bundles. Further, it was observed that while the flapper delivers the bundle of caps tothe cap feeding unit automatically the machine stops and is started manually by pushingthe start button given on the CUC of the machine after placing a cap inside the capdispensing bell. Hence due to this reason delivery of caps was improper to the cap feedingunit. Further due to this reason the cap was not blown to the dispensing bell causing themachine repeated stoppages.
3. Also another kind of machine stoppage was observed to occur repeatedly that cap is not blown to the cap dispensing bell as the bundle of caps on the cap feeding unit requiring a push to be released from down under the air nozzle as it gets engaged under this air nozzleas demonstrated by the KC personnel during the PT. KC is requested to make requiredadjustments in the machine so that such type of stoppage does not occur in the future.
4. Due to the above mentioned reasons the Automatic Cap Applicator stopped for about 65times at different time intervals, during the Performance Test.
5. An Air nozzle is installed on the outlet conveyor as part of site modification at the
upstream of the ET-GD to address the leaked LPG accumulation over the shroud of thecylinders (as of KC), which makes sure that there should not be any false detection atET/GD because of this LPG accumulation. But in the process, as a result the dust sittingon the cylinder also gets air borne and environment becomes dusty which is a healthhazard for operators working in that area. KC should evaluate the size of the Air nozzleand the pressure of the air to be blown.
6. It has been observed that there was still false sorting of cylinders on ET-GD. KC toelaborate the reasons for this false sorting and present the remedial solution to avoid thisfalse sorting.
7. Before the PT and during the PT, palletizer operation was disrupted because of locking jacks failed to engage the pallets in time to stop them at the designated position on stand 2,3, 4, & 5 even the empty cylinder pallet transition from stand 3 to stand 4 was a completefailure and all the pallets moving on the transfer path on these stands gets entangled witheach other. KC to look into the matter and bring forward the reason whether this failure iscaused by the single event i.e. putting an empty pallet at stand 5 as per KCs contention ora failure in the CUC control sequence. In either case KC is bound to deliver a fail-safesystem.

8. The optical sensors provided at stand 1, 5 & 9 have detection of the fork lift presence problem. To our understanding detection range should be equal to the forklift s liftingarms length at least. On detection of the forklift at these stands, a designated operationcontrol sequence has to be carried out by the CUC for each stated stands accordingly. KC
is required to furnish all the operation sequence of their system that has to be carried outon stands 1, 5 & 9 once the fork lift or any other object comes into detection range at thesestands. KC is also required to suggest & adjust a suitable detection range of the opticalsensor for the sake of safe operation based on their experience.
9. On second day of the PT, LPG filling tolerance set on Check Scale was 200 grams andthere were 34 number cylinders sorted out by the Check Scale. Out of these 34, 6cylinders had weight within tolerance i-e, 27kg 200 grams, 16 cylinders were underfilledand 12 cylinders were found empty. Out of 12 empty cylinders majority had noatmospheric air inside the cylinders, which shows that there were filling heads at Carouselthat might not be accurately engaged with cylinders.
10. At Carousel outlet cylinders came out with slight jerk. KC placed an operator at the outletto prevent the cylinders to fall. It might be due to the slight difference in the level of outletconveyor with respect to the level of filling stands.
11. Many of the completely filled cylinders at Carousel were took two or more turns as theywere not pushed out to outer conveyor after first turn. Similarly during PT many timesfilling stands were found without cylinders. Details of cylinders with two or more turns atCarousel and the filling stand without cylinders are as under :
