Check for the causes of this trip; hot air or fuel or oil leaks, or short-circuits. NOTE: Restarting after an operation of the CO2 system requires that the CO2 system be reset, including all doors and dampers, and the CO2 release mechanism. WARNING: Carbon Dioxide, in a concentration sufficient to extinguish fire, creates an atmosphere that will not support life. It is extremely hazardous to enter the compartment after the CO2 system has been discharged. For further information, refer to Fire Protection System documentation if available. The extent and type of safeguards and personnel warning that may be necessary must be designed to meet the particular requirements of each situation.

SIGNAL NAME ALARM TEXT POSSIBLES CAUSES ACTIONS TO BE TAKEN Gas leak detection alarm may be generated either by gas detection loop fault or by a real gas leak. Refer to Gas detection control system cabinet and relevant component literature for detailed fault analysis. Gas leak detection alarm must be considered as high priority. Continued operation of the turbine is not recommended. Proceed to normal shutdown to avoid later trip by higher detection level. For dual fuel machine, do not transfer to liquid fuel. This will not eliminate the leak if situated downstream the gas control valves. The leak shall remain at the same place with other fluid (e.g. purging air). Do not open the door of the enclosure, keep the area around free of people. Access to enclosure is only permitted when the main gas valve is closed and the line depressurised, the unit is stopped, on cooling sequence by ratchet system (Frame 6000B) or by barring system (Other Frame) with issuing of the relevant access permit or permit to work. Visual check the flanges (Refer to Residual risks summary/Maintenance phase) and the flexible metal hoses (Refer to GEK 111694) and all other connections.
