Functional Change of Sac Into Iac: Standard Field Operating Procedure

This standard operating procedure outlines the steps for functionally changing a service air compressor (SAC) into an instrument air compressor (IAC) at the 2x800 MW Yermarus Thermal Power Station. The 8 steps close valves on the SAC and IAC, open valves to connect the dryer and compressor between the SAC and IAC, start the SAC compressor, and ensure the dryer motor is rotating while the compressor is operating. This process allows for instrument air to be supplied from a SAC when an IAC is unavailable.
