Title: A Process Technician's Encounter with a Turbine
Course: Open PRO120 Equipment 1 > Section: MODULE 4: Process Drawings & Turbines

For this discussion think about what you have learned about turbines and how they affect other systems within a process facility.So the process technician in the title of this forum is YOU. Imagine that you are on the job already (any job, any place-YOU PICK because you are pretending) and then respond as described below.

Action Required

First Post: You have discovered a problem with a turbine at work! Since you have not been on the job very long, you need some help in figuring out a solution to this problem. So for your first post, describe the problem and explain what could happen in terms of other systems being affected if you do not solve the problem soon (pretend or real workplace is okay but try to entertain us with your story).

Response to Peer: Then on another day, read through the stories told by your peers and respond to one or two by giving them the solution to the problem they are encountering. Explain specifically what they should do including any lockout/tagout, startup, shutdown and/or emergency procedures they need to perform.

Everyone! Please respond to anyone who replies to you so that we have a lively conversation on the topic of various pipe used in the typical home. Thank you.
