1. Objective
For Smooth Operation of H2 Cylinder Room Charging.

2. Scope
This SOP is applicable for H2 Cylinder Room Charging.

3. Description of the system

Hydrogen cylinder storage and supply station is common for unit-1&24.

It consists of 250 H2 AND 76 CO2 cylinders storage, No of pressure
regulation stations. Out shut off valves will be operated with Nitrogen.
N2 cylinder with pressure regulator was provided for this. H2 Leak
detectors are available in cylinder room and control station room. These
detectors sense H2 in 99% LEL. Each control station is equipped with
H2 purity and dew point analysers.

Cylinders are stored in Racks. Each rack contains 20 CO2 & 8 H2

cylinders.

4. Prestart Up Checks

1. Ensure connection between cylinder outlet manifold and control

station.
2. H2 sample valve before supply SOV is closed.
3. H2 vent valve before supply SOV is closed.
4. H2 sample valve after sliding gate valve (PRV) is closed.
5. H2 vent valve after sliding gate valve ( PRV ) is closed
6. Sliding gate valve inlet, outlet valves are open.
5. Operating Procedure
Hydrogen Charging

1. Open Unit-1 H2 supply valve.

2. Open H2 station inlet valves 2 no.
