A

WITHIN 1 HOUR isolate the affected penetration flow path by use of at least 1 closed and de-activated automatic valve, closed manual valve, or blind flange

23
Q

25
Q

LCO 3.6.4 “Containment Pressure” applicability

26
Q

LCO 3.6.4 “Containment Pressure” required actions if containment pressure not within limit

A

WITHIN 1 HOUR restore containment pressure to within limit

27
Q

LCO 3.6.5 “Containment Air Temperature” requirement

A

28
Q

LCO 3.6.5 “Containment Air Temperature” applicability

29
Q

LCO 3.9.3 “Containment Penetrations” requirement

A
  • equipment hatch closed and held in place by 4 bolts (only required to be closed when fuel handling area ventilation system is not in compliance with LCO 3.7.12)
  • 1 door in the personnel air lock closed (only required when the equipment hatch is closed)
  • 1 door in the emergency air lock closed
  • each penetration providing direct access from containment atmosphere to outside atmosphere either closed by a manual or auto isolation valve, blind flange, or equivalent; or capable of being closed by an operable refueling CHR signal
30
Q

LCO 3.9.3 “Containment Penetrations” applicability

A

During core alterations and during movement of irradiated fuel assemblies within containment

31
Q

LCO 3.9.3 “Containment Penetrations” required actions if 1 or more containment penetrations not in required status

A

IMMEDIATELY suspend core alterations and movement of irradiate fuel assemblies within containment

32
Q

What are containment building design features/specs?

A
  • capable of withstanding the internal pressure from a DBA with no loss of integrity.
  • designed to allow a leak rate of no more than 0.1 weight percent/day at 55 psig and 283 F.
33
Q

What are design features of the air locks that help ensure containment integrity?

A
  • doors open into containment, so during an accident, high containment pressure will force the doors closed to aid in isolation.
  • doors are interlocked so only 1 can be opened at a time so there can’t be a “hole” in containment.
  • designed such that 1 door can withstand containment design pressure
34
Q

What is the admin limit on containment temperature?

A

130 F with TE-1815

135.96 with PPC

35
Q

What is the tech spec limit on containment temperature?

36
Q

What controls containment temperature?

A

Containment Air Coolers

37
Q

What is the admin limit on containment pressure?

A

Modes 1-2 - < 0.85 psig

Modes 3-5 - 1.35 psig

38
Q

What is the tech spec limit on containment pressure?

A

Modes 1-2 - < 1 psig

Modes 3-4 - < 1.5 psig

39
Q

How is containment pressure maintained?

A

Vented through ‘D’ CWRT to the stack through either the exhaust plenum or VGCH.

40
Q

Containment humidity relationship

A
  • humidity is a function of temperature, so as temperature goes up, so does humidity
  • a 10% step increase in humidity equates to 150 gallons of primary water leakage
41
Q

What are the 2 types of containment isolation devices?

A

Passive and active

42
Q

What are examples of passive containment isolation devices?

A
  • manual valves
  • de-activated automatic valves
  • blind flanges
  • closed systems
  • personnel and emergency escape air locks
43
Q

What are examples of active containment isolation devices?

A

Check valves or other automatic devices designed to close without operator action

44
Q

What actuates CHP?

A
  • Containment pressure 3.7-4.3 (4) psig

- 2/4 logic on either channel

45
Q

What equipment actuates on CHP?

A
  • closes containment isolation valves
  • CRHVAC goes to emergency mode
  • receive “containment isolation” alarm
  • SIS
  • “arms” containment spray pumps. Pumps will start on SIS with a CHP signal
46
Q

What is required to reset CHP?

A
  • CHP has a seal in circuit
  • can be reset if 3/4 channels < 3 psig
  • EOP gives directions to reset
47
Q

What happens to CHP actuated equipment when CHP is reset?

A

All valves stay in CHP position except:

  • CCW to/from containment
  • feedwater isolations
  • containment spray CVs return to HS postion (normally closed). Precaution to be careful as to not dead head the spray pumps and thermal shock components because of this
48
Q

How do we re-position valves that don’t automatically re-position when CHP is reset?

A

control switch needs to be taken to “closed” before they can be re-opened

49
Q

What actuates CHR?

A
  • 10 R/hr on any 2 of 4 containment rad monitors will result in both trains actuating
  • 80 mR/hr above background on either containment refueling rad monitor (will not receive high rad alarm)
50
Q

What equipment actuates on CHR?

A
  • Containment isolation valves close except MSIVs, MFRVs, MFRV bypasses, and CCW to/from containment
  • CRHVAC goes to emergency mode
  • receive “containment isolation” alarm
  • ESS sump pumps won’t auto pump down
51
Q

What happens to CHR actuated equipment when CHR is reset?

A

Valves will not re-position automatically
