1.0 GENERAL

Early detection of steam leakage in a boiler due to tube leakage in steam coils will avoid
secondary damage to great extent. Tube failure in a boiler is considered to be one of the major
causes for boiler shut down. This problem is more pronounced in pulverized coal fired boilers,
due to ash erosion and combustion being vigorous. Tube failures are bound to increase in
present day boilers, where steam generation at high temperature is attempted to maximize
combustion efficiency, outstripping the metallurgical developments. Sonic tube leak detection
system developed by BHEL, address this issue.

1.1 PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION

The Sonic tube leak detection system works on the principle of detecting the sound waves
emanating from the steam leak, process the same and indicate the quantum of steam leak and
the location, within approximately 5M radius in the boiler from where the steam leaks. Boiler is
divided into 18 number of zones for identifying the zone in which tube leakage likely to occurs.
However, facility exists in this system to cater up to 24 zones.

In each zone, a sonic tube is mounted on the stub provided in that zone. The sonic tube is
installed at an angle of 45 degree to the vertical axis of the water wall panel and is welded to the
seal box filled with refractory. Sonic tube houses the components required for air purging
arrangement, isolation valve, heat insulated spacer & heat insulated coupling. This coupling is
used to avoid heat conduction to the sensor assembly.

The BHELSONIC system consists of acoustic sensors mounted in sonic tubes that are
connected to field amplifier units at the boiler side, and further processed with signal processing
electronics, giving output to PC through decibel scanner in addition to 4-20mA DC output of each
channel. Signal processing modules and PC are installed in the control room.

2.0 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

Page 6 of 26
BHELSONIC- STEAM LEAK DETECTION SYSTEM

2.0 SYSTEM COMPONENTS:

2.1 SENSOR ASSEMBLY

The sensor assembly consists of a sonic transducer capsule and a test
sound source. They are protected from dust and heat by a special
arrangement in the sensor assembly. The sensor assembly also houses
a preamplifier circuit board. The acoustic sensor is located at one end of
Sonic tube assembly. The steam leak noise reaching the sensor is
converted into electric signal and is amplified in the pre-amplifier board
which is housed in the sensor assembly.

2.2 SONIC TUBE AND SENSOR ASSEMBLY:

Sensor assembly indicated in the above picture, is fitted to the sonic tube assembly. Sonic tube
is mounted to the water wall at an angle of 45 degrees upwards. The sensor assembly must be
mounted atleast 1.5meters away form the side of the boiler.
For isolation purpose, ball valve is provided as part of tube assembly, such that during
maintenance, the sensor assembly is to be taken out. Teflon coupling is used to protect the
sensor from the high temperature environment.
Manual purging is provided in order to evacuate the residues available in the stub pipe. Customer
must do periodical purging in order to avoid any fly ash/ dust particles entry to the sonic tube.
2.3 FIELD AMPLIFIER UNIT

Page 7 of 26
BHELSONIC- STEAM LEAK DETECTION SYSTEM

Field amplifier unit further amplifies the signal received from

sensor assembly and filters the low frequency combustion
noise. The filtered signal is converted into 0-20mA, AC signal
(Adjust Coarse potentiometer P1 & Fine potentiometer P2 to
achieve 20mA AC) for transmission up to control room. This
field amplifier also contains a test push button to energize a
sound source in the sensor assembly, to quickly test the function of the system. Circuit has been
built in the field amplifier to indicate the healthiness of DC supply from main panel at control room
to sensor assembly. The healthiness can be identified from main panel by the indication provided
in the Alarm Processing module.

The field amplifier PCB is mounted in the field amplifier box of size 300(B) x 200 (H)x 155(D)
protected to IP55. cable entries via gland plate are provided where the sensor connector lead is
connected. To protect the electronics, the door must be kept closed all the times.

Field amplifier box must be mounted very near to the sensor assembly. For calibration and site
tuning, approach platform for each sensor is provided.

2.4 MAIN PANEL

Main panel is located in the control room. This panel houses the following equipments.
A) Electronics module rack
B) Power supply unit
C) Decibel scanner
D) Personal computer and monitor
E) Audio channel selector

A) ELECTRONICS MODULE RACK: It consists of the following:

1) Mother board
2) Signal processing module
3) Alarm processing module
1) MOTHER BOARD:
Motherboard is provided with connectors to hold alarm processing module and signal processor
modules. 25 pin D connector provided for field interconnection, 15 pin for Audio channel selector,

Page 8 of 26
BHELSONIC- STEAM LEAK DETECTION SYSTEM

37 pin for decibel scanner are also mounted in the motherboard of size 426 mm x 355mm. This
mother board and modules are assembled in 19” double euro rack. Unused modules are covered
with dummy blank plates. Mother board accommodates the signal processing modules which are
interchangeable and an alarm processing module.

2) SIGNAL PROCESSOR MODULE:

DECIBEL
ABSOLUTE VALUE
CIRCUIT

One signal processor module caters to three channels. The number of

signal processor modules required is dependant on the number of
channels for which the system is configured. The AC current signal from
the field amplifier unit is converted into AC voltage and is passed through
a band pass filter whose mid frequency is tuned for characteristic steam
leakage frequency.

The band pass filter output is precision rectified and a DC voltage

proportional to the sound level in the required band is generated. This is converted into decibel in
the dB converter circuit. The background noise is subtracted from the decibel output and signal
above the background noise is taken for further processing like alarm generation, 4-20 mA
current output generation and 0-5V DC generation for feeding to dB scanner.

BHELSONIC- STEAM LEAK DETECTION SYSTEM

NOTE: All the potentiometers are factory setting expect background suppressor
potentiometer. Don’t disturb the factory settings.

3). ALARM PROCESSING MODULE:

VR1

VR2

In this module, alarm delay value in time and alarm value in dB are set. Alarm delay is set by
adjusting VR1. Alarm set value is set by adjusting VR2. If any channel receives steam leak sound
more than the alarm set value for a time greater than the alarm delay set, alarm relay contact is
generated. This is normally wired to Plant annunciator. This module has a special provision. If a
contact input is given to this panel from soot blower control system to indicate any soot blower is
in operation, then the steam leak alarm contact will be inhibited during the duration of any soot
blower is in operation.

During soot blower operation, the channels near by will pick up sound from soot
blower steam spray and show sound level in dB. In case, if this sound exceeds the
alarm set value for the duration of alarm delay, the contact output will be initiated,
leading to alarm. To avoid this, the above facility is given. If wired, alarm will be
inhibited during any soot blower is in service. Alarm set value can be adjusted
from 0 to 40dB. Recommended set value is 20dB. Alarm delay range is 1 min.,
(nominal) to 10min.( nominal). This timing will not be accurate. Alarm set value and
alarm delay set time can be seen in PC in Set up screen. Adjustment can be

carried out by watching this screen.

B). POWER SUPPLY UNIT

Power supply unit is provided to derive +12V DC , -12V DC from the incoming 230V AC supply.
Power supply redundancy is envisaged with diode auctioneering circuit so that when one power
supply fails, another will take over automatically, without affecting the system performance.

C) DECIBEL SCANNER.
From the signal processor modules 5V DC is fed to decibel scanner. From decibel scanner, the
signals are sent to PC through serial port. In the front facia of scanner, channel number and
sound level in dB are displayed channel by channel automatically. This facility will be quite useful,
in case of PC failure. The hardware & software customisation details are given in section-6.

D). PERSONAL COMPUTER AND MONITOR

Page 11 of 26
BHELSONIC- STEAM LEAK DETECTION SYSTEM

Personal computer is provided in the panel. Data from decibel scanner is used to generate
different types of monitoring displays like, Bargraph, mimic, Trend, Group trend and History. The
display modes are user selectable. The hardware & software customisation details are given in
section-5.

E). AUDIO CHANNEL SELECTOR:

By pressing the ‘Test’ button in the audio channel selector, the sound generators kept in all
sensor assemblies get activated and produce sound above 20dB, as long as the Test push
button is kept pressed. These sounds are processed in the system and in PC display, it can be
seen that all channels show more than 20dB sound. This can be easily visualized in “Bargraph”
mode or “Mimic display” mode of display.

By this, functioning of entire system right from sensor assemblies can be quickly checked in one
go. This test may be performed as and when needed to crosscheck the healthiness of the
system. During this test, 4-20mA output of all channels will be more than 12mA. ( Exact output is
not important but it should be more than 12mA).

Since alarm contact is initiated after a set time delay, Test push button is to be pressed
preferably for a short period say 3 to 5 seconds.

Sometimes, it may become necessary to hear the actual sound picked up by the sonic sensor
corresponding to a particular channel (after removal of combustion noise). This helps the
operator to ascertain whether steam leak is present in that location. To get the sound from a
particular sensor, switch on ‘ON& VOL’ switch, set the 3 position rotary switch “SELECTOR” in
the appropriate position (Position-1 for channels 1 to 8, Position 2 for channels 9-16, Position3 for
17 to 24).

Depress the Push button corresponding to the channel needed. LED, corresponding to that
channel goes ‘ON’ now. Increase or decrease volume control to hear the sound from the location
selected in the boiler in the speaker.

To hear another location, keep the selector switch in appropriate position and depress the
corresponding push button. Only one switch at a time in a group ( Ch 1-8, Ch 9-16, Ch 17-24)
should be pressed. When another switch in the same group is depressed, the earlier switch gets
Page 12 of 26
BHELSONIC- STEAM LEAK DETECTION SYSTEM

released through mechanical interlock. Pressing more than one switch at a time is to be avoided,
as this may damage the switch assembly.

1. Colour :Light grey.

2. Mounting :Panel mounting
3. Box Material :2mm thick CRCA sheet steel
4. Overall Dimension :L 180mm x H 135mm x D 100mm

F). CALIBRATOR:

One no. hand held calibrator is provided with the system. Calibrator contains a power supply and
a sound source. This calibrator is pre-calibrated for a particular dB. See the value in the calibrator
name plate.

Calibrator will be useful during commissioning of the system. If the sensor or field amplifier or
signal processor module is changed due to any reason, then also, re-calibration is
recommended. Periodic calibration, say once in 3 months is recommended for all channels.

PROCEDURE

Page 14 of 26
BHELSONIC- STEAM LEAK DETECTION SYSTEM

CALIBRATION PROCEDURE
1. Keep the PC display mode to “BARGRAPH display”
2. Close the isolation valve in the sonic tube corresponding to the channel to be calibrated.
3. Now, gently remove the sensor by unscrewing. Ensure the cable connection is in tact.
4. Connect the AC mains supply to calibrator.
5. Switch on the calibrator.
6. Now press the push button “PS” for a while. Now the sound from the calibrator will be
heard. When you leave the push button, sound stops. This is a calibrated sound.
7. Now insert the sensor into the socket portion of the calibrator.
8. Now press the push button.
9. The sound value in dB shown in MIMIC drawing corresponding to this channel should be
the calibrated value indicated in the calibrator +/- 1dB.
10. If this is O.K., the selected channel’s calibration is O.K.
11. If not, tuning has to be done in field amplifier unit corresponding to the selected channel.
Open the field amplifier box, so that field amplifier electronic module is visible. Locate
potentiometers P1(fine adjustment) and P2( coarse adjustment).
12. Keep pressing the push button in calibrator. Adjust P2(coarse) and P1(Fine), till the dB
reading in PC MIMIC display comes within +/- 1dB of the calibrator dB.
13. With this, calibration of one channel is over.
14. Switch off power supply to the calibrator and connect back to sonic tube by screwing
gently.
15. Open the isolation valve.
16. Now this channel is through for use.

Note:
1. You may need walkie-Talkie or any other plant communication mechanism to get the dB
value read from the PC display in the panel located in control room/ control equipment
room.
2. If the calibration could not be achieved by the above procedure, the owner may contact,
BHEL/Trichy for calibration/ servicing.
3. The calibrator itself may need recalibration say once in 2 years. BHEL/ Trichy may be
contacted for details.
