Ural Turbine Works (ROTEK holding) completed the manufacturing and bench test of steam turbine ST-60-8,9/1,9. The test was carried out in the presence of customer representatives – Arkhangelsk PPM. In the nearest future the equipment will be shipped. The start-up of turbine is scheduled for 2020.

The upgrade of Turbine Shop of TPP-1 at APPM is one of the most important task of mill technical re-equipment. The start-up of turbine with a capacity of 60 MW will significantly increase the reliability and processibility of complete power system of the mill. We will remind that Thermal Power Plant (TPP) No.1 provides the heat and electricity both to the mill and the town Novodvinsk.

The turbine ST-60-8,9/1,9 is designed as two cylinders and equipped with the newest system of the automatic control. The unit will be connected to PRANA prognosis system already at the shop. The system, developed by ROTEK JSC, identified the defects 2-3 month before they can lead to emergency. PRANA increases the reliability of complex equipment operation, gives the possibility to control the actions of operational staff and contractors.

The energy unit rebuilt project is developed in Design Solutions Center of ROTEK JSC. Its feature is the possibility to perform the rebuilt of the power unit in the existing machine hall. The new turbine will replace the old one type VST-50-2 without sacrificing required common plant system.
