A work on equipment for hydraulic turbines for Kremenchug HPP (station no. 4 and no. 5) is continued in the workshops of JSC “Turboatom”.
In particular, for station No. 4, hydro-turbine workshop 83 completed machining of the runner blades for assembly, and steam-turbine shop 53 continues to work on its mechanisms. In general, in November it is planned to prepare all the parts for assembly.
Regarding the distributor, all parts and assemblies were transferred for machining to the workshops of the plant. In particular, workshop 53 completes the final machining of the governing ring, and workshop 72 of machining and welding production has completely completed the machining and painting of the thrust bearing support. Workhop 83 has started the final machining of the turbine cover.
Work is underway on the second turbine (station No. 5) - the production workshops are completing procurement and welding and cleaning works and transfer parts for machining.
It should also be noted that the embedded parts (runner chamber) were made for both turbines.
The contract for the reconstruction of Kaplan units at Kremenchug HPP was concluded between “Turboatom” and “Ukrhydroenergo” on March 14, 2019. The subject of the contract is the reconstruction of two turbines and two generators of hydroelectric units at st. Nos. 4, 5, including design, manufacture, supply of equipment, performance of dismantling and assembly works and engineering support services.
