RWM OUT OF SEQUENCE

More than 1 WITHDRAW ERROR


More than 1 INSERT ERROR


1 INSERT ERROR and 1 WITHDRAW ERROR
An INSERT ERROR or WITHDRAW ERROR that is more than 2 notches



OUT OF SEQUENCE results in INSERT blocks and WITHDRAW blocks on all control rods. BYPASS required (administrative controls) to restore sequence.

RWM Latching

The current (latched) STEP is the lowest numbered STEP within the rod sequence that, when compared to actual control rod positions, results in the minimum number of insert errors. Once a STEP is latched, the RWM will follow control rod movement and will change STEPS in accordance with the loaded sequence.



Will not latch to the next until a control rod is withdrawn or inserted, respectively, at least one notch.


RWM AUTOMATIC ACTIONS

1. ABOVE LPAP (>19-22% power) RWM rod block functions are automatically bypassed but continues to provide display information (LPAP is Low Power Alarm Point)
2. TRANSITION (19-22% > power > 15-18%) RWM rod blocks functions are automatically bypassed, error control rod block indication for control rod movements is provided
3. BELOW LPSP (<15-18% power) RWM enforces adherence to a control rod withdrawal or insertion sequence
( LPSP is Low Power Set Point)

RBM trips not required

<30%, nor for peripheral rod because analysis have shown that local fuel damage due to overheating is highly unlikely during these conditions. RBM A or B can be bypassed.

RBM rod block setpoints:

1) Power
A. LOW = .66W + 49%.
B. INTERMEDIATE = .66W + 57%.
C. HIGH = .66W + 65%.(clamped at 116%)
D. HIGH HIGH = .66W + 76 %.


(use low value gate)



Setpoint setup can be performed within 2% of either the LOW or INTERMEDIATE setpoints increasing.
2.) RBM Downscale: 5%
3.) INOP

If the RBM's REF APRM is Bypassed what happens?

The reference APRM's for the RBM's are as follows:
RBM REF APRM ALT APRM
A C E
B D F


OPRM

Period based algorithm- (the only one we take credit for)
1. 18 (1/2) cycles (9 cycles of 0.3-0.8 Hz) produces OPRM ALARM
2. RPS trip:
a.) Ten confirmations
b.) Oscillation magnitude 1.07 times the normalized cell value.

OPRM: When the Associated APRM is bypassed

OPRM trips do not trip the reactor, HOWEVER, the OPRM trips are still active. Unbypassing the APRM with an OPRM trip actuated will trip the reactor.

RBM SELECTION MATRIX

Serves to choose the appropriate LPRM detector output signals to be evaluated by the RBM channels based on the location of the control rod selected for movement within the core.



Control rods are classified into 1 of the 4 following categories:
1. 4-string control rod.
2. 3-string control rod.
3. 2-string control rod.
4. Edge Rod/Peripheral control rod.

RBM is INOP if the LPRM's are providing an input signal of what?

If < 50% of the LPRM's are providing input.

TIP SHEAR VALVES

Provide a backup means of isolating their associated TIP guide tubes following the receipt of a Primary Containment Isolation signal. The valves each have 2 firing circuits and normally pass a trickle current for continuity. These are normally open and are located in the TIP room. These valves are manually actuated using a keyswitch from the 10C607 panel in the control room. Continuity lights are normally DEENERGIZED.

The SRM's scram signal?

A scram signal at 2x 105 cps if the shorting links are removed.

Diesel Engine Auto Start Interlocks:
LOCA

A. 129" Rx Level.
B. High Drywell Pressure = 1.68 psig.
C. Manual C.S. PB depressed.


If a LOP and LOCA occur concurrently

Diesel Generator will automatically restore power to the 1E switchgear. Starting of loads will be controlled by the LOCA sequencer.

EDGs are automatically started


Under loss of coolant accident (LOCA) and/or loss of power (LOP) conditions. If a LOCA occurs and offsite power remains available, the generator output breaker will remain OPEN.

RPT Pump start sequence


Auto OPEN signal - 3 sec stroke



Four successive 1 sec stroke with 10 sec pause in between



Total 80 sec

How many seals? What are the capacities?



Normal conditions?


Two seals each rated for full Rx pressure



#1 seal at ~1000 psig



#2 seal at ~500 psig



Temperature for both seals <200 deg F

#1 Seal failure indication

Higher pressure at seal #2

#2 Seal failure indication

Lower pressure at seal #2


What does leakage to the DW drains indicate?

Most likely a failure at Seal #2

What is an indicator of both seals failing?

High temps in both seals due to Reactor coolant passing through the seals.

#1 Seal failure indication

Higher pressure at seal #2

#2 Seal failure indication

Lower pressure at seal #2

RPT Drive Motor Start Permissives:

A. Suction Valve full open.
B. Discharge Valve full closed (jogs open on start)
C. Generator Field Breaker open.
D. Generator Auxiliary Lockout Relay reset (de-ener).
E. Generator Lockout Relay reset (de-ener).
F. MG Set lube oil pressure > 20 psig.
G. Both RPT Breakers closed:
A RPT AN205 & CN205.
B RPT BN205 & DN205.
H. Drive Motor Breaker racked in.
I. No electrical faults exist (motor, bus or breaker).
J. Scoop Tube reset & in startup position.

SRM,IRM and LPRM Regions/Volts:

SRM - Proportional and 350 VDC


IRM - Ion Chamber and 100 VDC


LPRM - Ion Chamber and 100 VDC

APRM Upscale Recirc Flow Units

Upscale (or high flow) trip - if flow reaches 111% TS rated flow.

The MSS is placed in S/D following a SCRAM to ensure

To ensure the MSIVs do not go closed during a possible cooldown (<756). This ensures the main condenser remains available and protects the TORUS.

Comparator trip

Indicates that 1 of the 2 flow signals being compared is higher or lower than the other flow signal by 10 % mismatch or more.

Failed Comparator

Use the lowest flow value for the calculation. The compare to the initial Rx.



.57(%F) +53 = Rod Block



.57(%F) + 58 = Scram
