Capstone Turbine Corporation • 21211 Nordhoff Street • Chatsworth • CA 91311 • USA Technical Reference: Enhanced Liquid Fuel System -- Model C30 MicroTurbine Initial Priming A priming sequence has been added to purge air from the lines before the start of the Line Fill Sequence. The initial priming sequence is described below: a) Purge the Tank - The priming sequence begins by allowing residual drain tank fuel to exit through the drain tank discharge line. As power to the MicroTurbine is turned on, the drain pump is activated. High and low sensors located inside the drain tank detect the existing fuel level. If the fuel level is above the low sensor, the drain pump drains the tank until the low level sensor indicates that the fuel level is below its level. The drain pump will run for 30 seconds to ensure that fuel is completely purged. A ìFAIL to DRAINî (16005) fault is set if the drain pump is unable to drain the fuel below the low-level sensor after 2 minutes. b) Fuel Line Fill ñ The boost pump is turned on, and fuel begins filling the lines. At this point, the prime solenoid valve is opened and the path through the electric fuel pump has closed. The direction of fuel flow is from the fuel source through the boost pump and the prime solenoid valve, into the drain tank. c) Return Line Prime - Fuel is cycled in a closed-loop through the boost pump to remove any air pockets in the system. To accomplish this, the boost pump remains on while the prime solenoid valve pulses three times (3 seconds open, 1 second closed). The sequence ends in 12 seconds. d) Drain Tank Fill - Fuel flows through the lines to the drain tank through an open prime solenoid valve and activated boost pump. The drain tank continues to fill for 10 seconds after the first float triggers. If the drain tank fuel level reaches the high sensor, a ìLF DRNTNK FULLî (16003) fault is triggered. 410017-001 Rev A (July 2002) Page 4 of 11 This information is proprietary to Capstone Turbine Corporation.
