RUs 4 you: ignore at your own peril Flashcards
learn it, know it. seriously, this will be on every test from now on.
State the monitored system/area, auto actions w/ setpoints and any special characteristics associated with:
RU-1 Cont. atmosphere
Gas channel is sensitive (early indicator of small RCS leaks, 1gpm detected in 1 hour)
Particulate and Gas Channels required by LCO 3.4.16
CIV close on CIAS
State the monitored system/area, auto actions w/ setpoints and any special characteristics associated with:
RU-2/3 EW train A/B
Indicates RCS in leakage (RCP coolers if cross-tied to NC or SDC HX leak).
State the monitored system/area, auto actions w/ setpoints and any special characteristics associated with:
RU-4/5 SGBD
Isolated during SIAS, AFAS and MSIS. Supplied from SG sample line.
Slow transport time (~ 10 min)
Manually isolate associated SGBD if in High alarm (per ARP)
State the monitored system/area, auto actions w/ setpoints and any special characteristics associated with:
RU-6 NC
In-leakage from contaminated HXs (RCP coolers, letdown HX, etc)
Will not detect a leaking HPSC leak if EW supplying NC
State the monitored system/area, auto actions w/ setpoints and any special characteristics associated with:
RU-7 AS cond receiver tank
First monitor alarm during U2 SGTR.
Re-aligns AS Condensate Return to LRS (isolates path to main condenser)
State the monitored system/area, auto actions w/ setpoints and any special characteristics associated with:
RU-12 WGDT discharge
Isolates WGDT path (closes UV-34A/34B). Detects high Beta activity being released. Should not detect a WGDT leak.
ODCM
- If non-functional, tank can be released if two independent: sample analysis, release rate calcs, and valve line-up
State the monitored system/area, auto actions w/ setpoints and any special characteristics associated with:
RU-17 Incore Instrument area
Warns if incore instrument probe is retracted.
Turned off during power operations.
EALs
State the monitored system/area, auto actions w/ setpoints and any special characteristics associated with:
RU-18 CR area
EAL (Alert) if > 15 mR/hr
Do not confuse this with starting CREFAS. It’s an area monitor… that monitors the area.
State the monitored system/area, auto actions w/ setpoints and any special characteristics associated with:
RU-19 New Fuel storage area
Distinct alarm in areas to be evacuated.
TRM (If non-functional, take surveys every 24 hours)
EALs
State the monitored system/area, auto actions w/ setpoints and any special characteristics associated with:
RU-29/30 MCR vent intake train A/B
Actuates CREFAS.
LCO 3.3.9
State the monitored system/area, auto actions w/ setpoints and any special characteristics associated with:
RU-31 SFP area
Actuates FBEVAS. (TRM)
Cross trips CREFAS
Distinct alarm in areas to be evacuated
EALs
State the monitored system/area, auto actions w/ setpoints and any special characteristics associated with:
RU-34 Cont. blding refueling purge
Indication of possible Fuel Handling Accident.
Can be aligned to monitor either power access or refueling purge exhaust.
State the monitored system/area, auto actions w/ setpoints and any special characteristics associated with:
RU-37/38 Power Access Purge
Actuates CPIAS. LCO 3.3.8
Cross trips CREFAS
Outside CTMT. Area RU between power access purge and refueling purge exhaust ducts.
Prevent exceeding 10CFR100 limits.
State the monitored system/area, auto actions w/ setpoints and any special characteristics associated with:
RU-139/140 MS line monitor
RU-139a/b: SG 1
RU-140 a/b: SG 2
Located next to the steam lines upstream of ADVs and MS safeties in the MSSS.
Measures dose rate from MSLs.
Monitors effluent doses from ADVs, SG safeties and TDAFW pump
Used for SGTR diagnosis.
May only detect > 10-15 gpm tube leak under normal failed fuel conditions at 100% power.
Response is proportional to reactor power (N-16 detectors)
Post trip, may not see the leak unless major fuel damage.
TRM (one channel required per SG – a or b)
Manually isolate associated SGBD if in High alarm (per ARP)
State the monitored system/area, auto actions w/ setpoints and any special characteristics associated with:
RU-141 Cond Vacuum/GS exh
RU-141 Ch. 2: Most sensitive real time estimate of total tube leakage.
- Ch.2 alarms at 50 gpd tube leak
- Not diluted by GS exhaust (only reads vacuum exhaust)
RU-141 Ch. 1: Diverts CAR exhaust flow through the post filter blower unit. (Thru Filter)
- Ch. 1 alarms at 1 gpm leak with 1% failed fuel (1440 gpd)
~ 20 minute transport time
Both channels have a change in leak rate alarm (“Urgent” alarm)
