RFPEW-A1.2 Engine-room watchkeeping procedures
|
Condition | Behavior | Standard |
On a gas turbine vessel at sea, on a simulator, or in a laboratory,
|
the candidate monitors a main gas- turbine engine propulsion unit.
|
The candidate:
- Monitors the main lube-oil and cooling water temperatures entering and leaving the main lube-oil cooler;
- Monitors the main lube-oil sump tank level
- Monitors the main and scavenging lubricating oil pump suction and discharge pressures, the lube-oil supply and scavenging header pressures and temperatures and any applicable filter or strainer pressure drops;
- Monitors fuel oil manifold pressure and temperature, and any applicable strainer and filter pressure drops;
- Monitors start air pressure;
- Monitors compressor inlet and discharge pressures and temperatures;
- Monitors power turbine gas inlet and outlet pressure and temperature;
- Monitors gas generator and power turbine speed;
- Checks gas turbine vibration indicator;
- Monitors gas turbine enclosure cooling air outlet temperature;
- Monitors reduction gear lube oil sump levels, lube oil temperatures and pressures, and lube oil filter and strainer pressure drops as applicable;
- Monitors controllable pitch propeller oil sump levels, pitch oil temperatures and pressures, and pitch oil filter and strainer pressure drops as applicable; and
- Notifies the watch engineer of any unusual or unsafe conditions, unusual sounds, or vibrations; and
- Takes proper action to prevent safety and pollution violations.
