Q

How is the area temperature maintained to prevent Pump/Motor Overheating? What is the cooling source and power?

A

ECCS Room Coolers -
Cooled by Service Water, CCSW (when running) or DGCWP(in needed, will INOP EDG)
PPowered by MCC 28-1(38-1) / 29-4(39-1)

Q

How do the ECCS Room Coolers auto start and how are they secured?

A

If Control switch in neutral, will auto start on high local area temps.
MUST MANUALLY SECURE

21
Q

At what flow rate will the CS minimum flow valve open/close? what is it’s normal condition in standby?

A

When system flow exceeds 750gpm, min flow vlve closes, if <750 valve is fully open; therefore, it is fully open when not in operation

22
Q

What is normal power for CS min flow valve?

A

38A/B valves powered by MCCs 28-1(38-4) / 29-4(39-1)

23
Q

How is the CS min flow valve controlled?

A

Flow transmitter powered through AC portion of ATS system.

24
Q

What is the CS Test Line Valve number, where does it discharge to? What is it’s position on a CS initiation signal?

A

4A/B - Discharges to Torus via LPCI Test Line - Closes on initiation signal

25
Q

What is the power source for the ECCS Jockey Pump?

A

MCC 28-1 (39-1)

26
Q

What pressure is ECCS Jockey pump designed to maintain?

A

50gpm to maintain 85psig

27
Q

What is the alternate CS Keep Fill supply?

A

Condensate Transfer via pressure regulator

28
Q

If CS/LPCI headers exceed 100psig, what may actuate?

A

ADS permissive switch

29
Q

Should the CS Injection Valves leak and permit RPV pressure to enter the CS piping, what is installed to prevent overpressure?

A

Relieve valve that lifts at 500psig and relieves to RBEDT

30
Q

What are the CS automatic initiation signals?

A

+2psig DW Pressure OR

  • 59” RPV LEVEL and <350psig OR
  • 59” RPV LEVEL for >8.5min - allow LP ECCS inject for steam line break outside DW
31
Q

What is the CS Logic Scheme?

A

1 out of 2 twice

32
Q

What is the CS system response to Initiation Signal?

A

Both CS Pps start and run on min flow (unless Pp PTL)
Both CS Suct. Vlvs interlocked open (unless in Man. Bypass)
Test Line Vlvs interlock closed
Inject Vlvs stay closed unless RPV Press <350psig, then interlock open
25A/B may be throttled at any time.

33
Q

How does CS Operate on loss of normal AC power?

A

EDG starts for ECCS condition +2# or -59” level - 10 sec for brkr close, 3 sec UV relay reset

When bus restored, first LPCI pump starts, 5 sec later 2nd LPCI starts, 5 sec later CS Pump Starts.

23 second from injection signal until all LP ECCS Pps running when on EDG. All start immediately if on normal AC. No 13 sec delay if EDG had already been running.

34
Q

What are the interlock requirements for the CS Injection Valves?

A

Above 350psig - either 24 or 25 can be opened, but not at same time

Below 350# and no initiation signal - 25 MUST be closed for 24 to open.

If <350# psig & Init. Signal - 24 will open regardless of 25 position.

35
Q

What kind of signal and interation does CS provide to ADS?

A

At 100psig discharge, pressure permissive sent to ADS to confirm LP ECCS pump is running

36
Q

How does CS interact with the Deisel generator (Not power source)

A

DG starts on either +2psig or -59” Level signal

Div I CS logic starts 2/3 EDG

Div II CS logic starts Unit EDG

37
Q

What is the C/CB interaction with CS Logic?

A

Logic 111A/B relay trip “D” C/CB Pp if all 4 are running and LOCA signal

38
Q

What is CS logic tie to RBCCW?

A

A&B RBCCW pps trip, only if ECCS initiation with loss normal power

39
Q

Why does D C/CB pp trip with LOCA signal?

A

Prevents overloading RAT

40
Q

What is CS logic tie to SBO?

A

SBO switch in nomral and -59” or +2#DW signal, trip signal sent to SBO main feed breaker in Bus 23/24(33/34) - same relay that starts EDGs

41
Q

What is alarm setpoint for CS Pp Seal Leak?

A

0.5gpm - 902-3 panel

42
Q

What is the CS Overload protection?

A

CS Pp trip on overcurrent - 86 device need to be reset to restart

43
Q

What is the “CORE SPRAY HDR DP HI” ALARM an alert of and where is it shown?

A

902-3 panel - identifies line break between RPV wall and core shroud, Core DP will change and alarm

Only works if >80% - reads Positive and Similar

44
Q

What added interfaces does CS initiation logic have for Unit 3?

A

Initiation signal from Div II logic sends trip signal to normal feed for Security system at Bus 34-1 - starts Security Diesel or Security UPS

45
Q

What are the control power for the CS logic System?

A

Div 1 - 125VDC Bus 2A-1

Div II - 125VDC Bus 2B-1

46
Q

How will CS Logic Function on a loss of it’s normal power supply?

A

The associated pump and valves will not reposition

47
Q

What is the “Core Spray System Timer Not Home” Alarm?

A

Means that there is a complete core spray initiation signal and 125vdc and 4kV power are avaialble

48
Q

What will happen to CS flow on low Torus Level?

A

Low CS pump flow due to Vortexing

49
Q

What are the CS Pump Trips?

A

Instantaneous or time delayed overcurrent

Undervoltage
