Vogt Power to Supply HRSGs for Thailand Power Plant

Vogt Power International, a subsidiary of Babcock Power, has announced the receipt of an award from Toshiba Plant Systems & Services (TPSC) to supply the heat recovery steam generators (HRSGs) for the Amata Nakorn: ABP3 combined cycle co-generation plant project located in the Mueang district, Chonburi Province, Thailand.



Vogt Power will design, engineer and deliver two HRSGs with exhaust gas bypass systems to operate behind two Siemens SGT800 gas turbines. In addition, a portion of the supply will be performed in Thailand through Babcock Power Thailand, a Thailand sister company of Vogt Power. The HRSGs will be Vogt's MSG design, which incorporates the ultimate in shop pre-fabrication and assembly, thus minimizing erection hours.



Amata Power (Bangpakong) Combined Cycle Power Plant is Amata Power's second power plant in the Amata Nakorn industrial estate. This is the second phase of the project, in which Vogt Power also supplied the HRSG for the combined cycle cogeneration power plant which has a generating capacity of 114MW and began operation in October 2001.



"We have experienced strong international growth and look forward to increasing our market share in Asia. We are pleased to be working with Toshiba Plant Systems & Services on the Amata combined cycle co-generation plant project," stated Steve Kapsalis, president and CEO of Vogt Power International.

Copes Vulcan SD-1000 - Control Valves that can withstand the most severe operating conditions

Where critical applications demand control valves that can withstand the most severe operating conditions, then only one style of valve can be considered, that being the Copes-Vulcan SD-1000.
The rugged and highly dependable SD-1000 valve assembly features a straight through globe style body design with a single web internal construction.  The high structural integrity, large interior flow passageways and large capacity bowl accommodate an extensive variety of trim designs, while allowing maximum recovery within the valve.  Combining a massive amount of body and bonnet material with thick cross-sectional areas ensures that the SD-1000 valve can withstand the most severe conditions. 

Applications for which the SD-1000 valve is suitable include:-

·         Pump recirculation
·         Feedwater control
·         Feedwater start-up
·         Flashing
·         Cavitating service
·         Any potentially noisy or vibration prone service.

It is also widely used for nuclear "N" stamp and seismic applications.  Copes-Vulcan offers the valve in a range of sizes between 20 and 500mm and ASME pressure classes from 150 to 4500 standard.
However, large sizes can be supplied where applications demand.  However, in designing the SD-1000, Copes-Vulcan has not overlooked the matter of that all-important subassembly, namely the trim. SD series valves can be fitted with an extensive array of standard and high performance trims. The company's Raven, Hush, Soft-Seated Hush, Tandem and GAD are readily available, and where circumstances demand, custom engineered trims can be supplied. Offering a quick disconnect between valve stem and actuator yoke to simplify service and inspection, the SD-1000 is fast becoming the industry standard for severe duties and critical conditions.
