On January 2,1985 at 1:06 a.m., while Unit 4 was at 100% power, containment isolation valve SV-2819 failed to close upon receiving a containment ventilation isolation signal during testing of containment process radiation monitors R-ll and R-12 as per Operating Procedure 0204.2. The valve was closed immediately by manually tripping lockout relay QR50 in the control room. SV-2819 is a containment isolation valve for the instrument air bleed line and is located outside containment.

Containment isolation for this line is also provided by SV-2826, Imated inside containment, which did close on the containment ventilation isolation signal. There was no detectable release of radioactive gases from containment as a result of this incident. The health and safety of the public were not affected. Similar occurrences: LERs 251-84-020 and 250-84-031.

Cause of Event

A set of contacts in lockout relay QR50 for containment ventilation isolation did not consistently make contact due to oxidation and dirt buildup on the surfaces from extended use. 'lhis prevented the isolation signal from reaching SV-2819.

Corrective Actions

The contacts of the lockout relay in QR50 were replaced and SV-2819 was cycled successfully. Ar Unusual Event was declared in accordance with the Turkey Point Emergency Plan. The requiree State officials were notified at 1:15 a.m., and the NRC was notified via the ENS at 1:20 a.m.

pursuant to 10CFR50.72(a)(3). The Unusual Event ended immediately when the valve was manually closed.
