Experiment no: 3 Name of the experiment: Maintenance schedule of Kier Boiler machine and route of utilities applied for

technical operations. Introduction: Maintenance extends the machine life and helps the machines to rub smoothly and in a problem free manner. Objects: y To observe the machine. y To learn about the controlling points. y To know about the mechanism. y Overall maintenance of tank. Main parts: 1. Water supply pipe, 2. Handle, 3. Mixing tank, 4. Gauge glass, 5. Steam pipe, 6. Lid,

7. Solution outlet pipe, 8. Check valve, 9. Inlet outlet pipe, 10. Round spray pipe, 11. False bottom, 12. Multitubuler heater.

Maintaining points: The machine should be maintained in several points of view, y Temperature control: Here for scouring 130-150 0 C temperature is obtained. So, we have to control the temperature properly. Here gauge glass is used for indicating temperature. y Check valve: Different check valve should be proper maintained, so that if they defective or leakage then greater problem might occur. y Check of pipes: If the pipes are rusty and leakage then proper flow will not obtained. So, we have to maintain them properly. y False bottom: The false bottom should be proper perforated otherwise it will creat more hamper in case of proper scouring. y Steam pipe: We have to maintain proper steam supply by the steam pipe. So, steam pipe will not leakage. y Water pipe: We have to maintain proper flow of water in pipe. So, it will not be rusty or leakage.

y Multitubuler heater: Proper maintenance of multitubuler heater should be done by this, the heating purpose is perfectly done. We have to look at the temperature also. y Inlet and outlet pipe: Inlet and outlet pipe should have to clean for proper flow of different solution. That s why we have to maintain them. Utilities: Heat, Water, Steam, Electricity. Maintenance schedule:
