Q

What is the basis for the APRM Flux Setdown RPS trip signal?

A

Nothing specific in the Safety Analysis

18
Q

What is the basis for the APRM Flux Hi RPS trip signal?

19
Q

What is the basis for the APRM Flow Thermal Power RPS Trip signal?

A

Provides protection against transients where thermal power increases slowly (such as the
loss of feedwater heating event) and protects the fuel cladding integrity by ensuring that the MCPR Safety Limit is not exceeded

20

A

Period, Growth, and Amplitude

23
Q

What is the basis for the OPRM RPS trip signals?

A

Provides protection from exceeding MCPR Safety Limit

24
Q

What are the IRM Neutron Monitoring RPS trip signals?

A

25
Q

What is required to bypass the IRM Neutron Monitoring RPS trip signals?

A

Mode Switch in RUN

26
Q

What is the basis for the IRM Neutron Monitoring(120/125) RPS trip signal?

What is required to bypass the High Reactor Pressure RPS trip signal?

A

NEVER BYPASSED

31
Q

What is the basis for the High Reactor Pressure RPS trip signal?

A

Initiates a scram for transients that result in a pressure increase, counteracting the pressure increase by rapidly reducing Reactor Power.

Q

What is required to bypass the Low Reactor Water Level RPS trip signal?

A

Mode Switch in Shutdown with the Level 3 Scram Bypass Switches in BYPASS

34
Q

What is the basis for the Low Reactor Water Level RPS trip signal?

A

The Reactor Scram reduces the amount of energy required to be absorbed and along with ECCS fuel Peak Central Temperature less than or equal to 2200F

35
