Case story: Siemens improves testing methods

CASE STORY IN BRIEF

Siemens Energy Fossil - Field Service, UK

The situation

Siemens Energy Fossil - Field Service in Nottingham oversees the repair, service and upgrade of Siemens gas and steam turbine generators in the UK, including the Parsons steam turbine generators that are still in service across the globe, as well as other non-Siemens manufactured equipment. Specific tasks of the Siemens Energy Fossil - Field Service, are to service and repair hydrogen and water-cooled electrical power generators in the UK and worldwide. As part of the service, and prior to commissioning of the machine following servicing, the Field Service performs pneumatic and vacuum tests on the water-cooling circuit. The challenge was that the equipment used earlier for these tests was not providing the desired performance. The benefits of using the Beamex® MC5 Multifunction Calibrators are improvements in efficiency, the ability of determining test failures early and taking corrective actions. This results in timesavings.

Solution

• Beamex® MC5 Multifunction Calibrator

Main benefits

• High accuracy calibration and measurement equipment that is easy to use and provides datalogging capability.
• All-in-one capability – the Beamex® MC5 replaces several measurement devices.
• Improved efficiency in field-testing.
• Timesavings.
