NBI Flashcards
What is the purpose of the NBI System?
Monitor water level, pressure, temperature and flows inside RPV to provide operator with sufficient information to protect vessel from undue stress
Where is Instrument Zero?
Bottom of Moisture Separator - 503” above vessel bottom (143” above TAF)
Where are NBI level instruments variables tapped into?
downcomer region
At NOC, what is the pressure drop across the moisture separator skirt (water elevation difference)?
7in H2O
What will cause MCR to have NO Rx Level Indication?
Loss of ESS, Instrument Bus and AC power.
What is the range for Narrow Range Level Instruments?
-60in to +60in
What is the range for Medium Range Level Instruments?
-60in to +60in
What is the range for the Wide Range Level Instruments?
-70” to 330in
What is the range for the Fuel Zone Level Instruments?
-340in to +60 in
What is the purpose of RVWLIS Backfill?
Provides continuous backfill to Narrow, Medium, and FZ reference legs to prevent gases from coming out of solution - inaccurate level indication
