Turbomachinery Package Specification Titan 250 Generator Set
14.3 Package Lifting Kit
A package lifting kit can be shipped separately that contains slings, spreader bars, and
assorted hardware to facilitate separate lifting of the driver and driven equipment
modules with or without an export crate.
14.4 Engine Removal Equipment
The Titan 250 package is equipped with an innovative system to remove the gas turbine
as a complete entity or in sections (Figure 29). The compressor, combustor, gas
producer turbine and the power turbine can be separated axially using fixtures that attach
to longitudinal rails (Figure 30). The rails are an integral part of the package frame. When
service is scheduled, the fixtures are mounted on the rails and attached to the turbine. A
screw-thread mechanism is then used to separate the sections. This arrangement allows
easy access to the different sections of the engine for in-situ service. It also allows the
individual sections, or the entire engine, to be removed laterally using a separate external
rail-based handling system.
