Lube oil things at unit EC 20 (in HDR)

Well, as the end of my line of powerplant pictures is coming nearer I walked around at unit EC 20 with colleague Rients Bijlsma (who makes pictures too...), to shoot a series, trying to catch some nostalgic feeling.

This is a place I pictured before, from a different point of view.
At the left you can see the lube oil separator, here used as a purifier so to clear the oilsystem from water.
At steamturbines mostly purifiers are used because almost no dirt comes in but mostly water from the shaftsealsystem.
Clarifiers are used in oilsystems for (marine)diesels.
At the right: one of the two lube oil coolers wich has a change over system from cooler to another that has to be operated carefully because a wrong move would cause the main turbine (and thus the unit) to trip.

It all looks a bit worn out and that's what it is...

Better in LARGE....

Here is an Almost Blip... a rusty burnerfront
