Success Story
During the design of chimney, main problem occur was the space allotted for the placement of chimney & type of chimney design (Conical Self Supported Chimney), also there was some minor problem like orientation of chimney, access to top of chimney, etc. To overcome the challenges we came up with different design standards like MPCB, OSHA 3124 , IS6533-1 ,IS6533-2 . After complete study we came o conclusion that we cannot design he chimney with any one standard, so we merge some part of each standard & design the Self Supported chimney. Some of the changes made were
- To avoid direct going to top the ladder was placed a 270 degree apart.
- For easy maintenance the connecting flange was placed above the platform.
- The chimney was made in two parts, out of which while reducing of diameter from 914mm to 512mm was done in first part only.
- All safety norms were considered during this design.
- Orientation and dimensions of inlet port was changed as per site requirement.
- Flexible bellows were used to adjust the distance between machine outlet and chimney inlet.
- Installation was done within one day.
Cummins India is one of the reputed company for DG set manufacturing .The whole project was basically unloading , & installation of 4 Compressors & six 5cu mtr Receiver with its accessories & Electrical panel installation along with 4 soft starter panel . The main problem while working in plant was that we have to do install the compressor in basement and receiver on first floor. Following activity were done to over come problems.

KSPG automotive plant was basically Kirlosker Ball bearing plant .The whole project was basically dismantling of whole plant which include Machine , LT cable , chimney, Furnace ,etc. The main problem while working in plant was that we have to do maximum work without crane as there was less space available and within target time of 40 Days & problem in LT panel cable removal. Following activity were done to over come problems.
- Near about 150 T machine scrap was removed & heavy machine was shifted .
- Exhaust chimney of 25 mtr height was dismantle without help of crane.
- About 500 mtr Air line & Water line was dismantle.
- With proper approved Lift plan ,50 Tr crane was used to shift the equipment on trailer.
- LT panel cable removal was very difficult still we manage to remove about 400 T of cable scrap
- Within 30 days total work was completed.
During the initial stages of Project he main problem was that the customers office was in Mumbai & the installation was to be done in Indore. We didn’t know the site condition because we haven went to site before. The whole project was basically supply of Air receiver , unloading , & installation of Compressors with its accessories. Following activity were done to over come problems.
- Every thing has to be by taking approval from main office. dimensional standard was considered during design like IS-2825 , ASME Sec 8-Div 1. Over design team had to be continuously be in touch with the design team of Elomaive.
- All the equipment has to be shifted on first floor
- Heavy cranes were used to shift the equipments
- Receiver placement was the main task as there was very less distance between receiver top and ceiling.
- Maximum fittings were made off line at our plant.
- Within 4 days total work was completed.
- Orientation and dimensions of inlet port was changed as per site requirement.
