A

3.4 REACTOR COOLANT SYSTEM (RCS)
3.4.10 Pressurizer Safety Valves
LCO 3.4.10 Three pressurizer safety valves shall be OPERABLE with lift
settings  2411 psig and  2509 psig.
—————————-NOTE—————————-
The lift settings are not required to be within the
LCO limits during MODE 3 for the purpose of setting the
pressurizer safety valves under ambient (hot) conditions.
This exception is allowed for 54 hours following entry into
MODE 3 provided a preliminary cold setting was made prior to
heatup.
————————————————————
APPLICABILITY: MODES 1, 2, and 3.
15 minutes to restore if one inop

Closed; de energized

21
Q

3.4.10 PZR TS

A

3.4 REACTOR COOLANT SYSTEM (RCS)
3.4.9 Pressurizer
LCO 3.4.9 The pressurizer shall be OPERABLE with:
a. Pressurizer water level <= 92%; and
b. Two groups of pressurizer heaters OPERABLE with the
capacity of each group >=150 kW and capable of being
powered from redundant Engineered Safety Features (ESF)
power supplied buses.
APPLICABILITY: MODES 1, 2, and 3.

22
Q

3.4.12 LTOP

A

Mode 4, 5 and 6 (if vessel head on)
Max of 1 charging pump, no SI pumps capable of injecting.
Each accumulator isolated if >Max allowed RCS pressure
One of following relief capabilities:
-Two PORVs set per PTLR
-Two RHR suction reliefs <=450psig
-One PORV and one RHR suction relief
-or-RCS depressurized with RCS vent >=2.0 inch diameter

—————————-NOTES—————————
1. Operation in MODE 4 with all SI pumps and charging
pumps capable of injecting into the RCS is allowed when
all RCS cold legs exceed 330F.
2. For the purpose of protecting the decay heat removal
function, one or more SI pumps may be capable of
injecting into the RCS in MODE 5 and MODE 6 when the
reactor vessel head is on provided pressurizer level is
≤ 5 percent.

Low level alarm 17%

17% closes orifice isol valves, LD isolation valves close, PZR heaters off

+5% deviation, BU heaters full on and alarm
-5% deviation, alarm

24
Q

RC system cold pressure high_________
RC pressure high at low temp, PORV open______

A

360F

Q 
What is the effect on PZR level when each of the following occurs?
Cont temp increases
Ref leg leaks
DP diaphragm ruptures
Variable leg loss
A

Up; Up; Up; Down

30
Q

CV-121 is clipped on the low end at _____ to maintain _____.

A

52 GPM; 13 gpm seal injection flow for each RCP

31
Q

PZR pressure alternate actions occur if:

A

4 ch bad
4 ch exceed 80# deviation
2 ch bad and 2 good exceed deviation
1ch bad and 3 good exceed deviation

Alternate action locks in lagged input and forces master pzr press controller to manual

32
Q

PZR level control alternate actions occur if:

A

3 channels bad quality
3 channels exceed dev band 10%
1 channel bad quality and
1other channel exceeds dev band

If an alternate action occurs on pzr level, then master pzr level controller is switched to manual, letdown isolation logic is blocked for the drop in the alt. action.

33
Q

Charging flow alternate action occurs if:

A

Single charging flow input is bad quality. PZR level will control based on level error only.

34
Q

What is the flow rate of the spray valves and bypasses?

A

450 gpm and 1 gpm

35
Q

If RCPs are unavailable, can pzr spray be used?

A

Aux spray

36
Q

Which heater groups can be controlled from outside the control room?

A

A and B BU heaters from remote shutdown panel.

37
Q

what is the pressure which results in a pressurizer pressure high deviation control alarm?

A

2310#

38
Q

At what PRT pressure will the gas analyzer line be auto isolated?

A

6#

39
Q

What are the three items that must be met to meet the TS for the pressurizer?

A
