A

cartridge

.5 micron

33
Q

34
Q

How does PC clean up interface with CH?

35
Q

How does the SFP interface with CT?

36
Q

What is the need for Conical Flange Watches during outage?

A

When core is loaded and reactor head not tensioned, SI is initiated on a LOCA.

instead of coolant going into the RAS sumps, some of it goes out the top of the reactor and into the refueling pool and UGS pit

Q

What powers the SFP cooling pumps?

A

transfers water to and from RWT and refuel pool

41
Q

In the refueling pool, what happens if the pool level goes above 138’ 2”?

A

water intrusion to the in-core-instrument tubing shield

42
Q

How does the Fuel pool cooling interface with PK?

A

FP cooling pump control power

43
Q

What is the impact to nuclear safety when the RWT is cross connected to the SFP clean up system?

A

it connects a seismic rated system with a non seismic rated system

deems two of five gravity feed flow paths nonfunctional

44
Q

What set point, besides D/P, will require the PC cleanup filters to be changed?

A

5 R/hr

45
Q

What pumps can be used for, and what pump is preferred for SDC augment?

A

68
Q

What is the tech spec related to fuel pool water level?

A

when moving spent fuel, water level shall be 23’ or more over the top of the fuel

69
Q

What are the concerns associated with the SFP and refueling pool level variations when the fuel transfer tube valve is open?

A

if the SFP transfer canal gate is removed, they become a giant manometer and changes in pressure due to ventilation in the fuel building and containment change the water level in each of the pools
