Specify in Abstract below or in limit switches could not be set as specified.
The resulting actions focused on limit switch setpoint adjustment and limit switch mounting changes to address the condition.
Safety Significance
The Conditional Core Damage Probability (CCDP) and Conditional Large Early Release Probability (CLERP) values were evaluated for the stated event and were found to be significantly below the thresholds required by RG-I.174 for the risk to be "Small" where CCDP is below 1.OE-06 and CLERP is below 1.OE-07. Given the response of the plant and the insignificant CCDP and CLERP values, the health and safety of the public were not affected by this event.
This reactor trip event is reportable pursuant to 10 CFR 50.73(a) (2) (iv) (A) as.an automatic actuation of the reactor protection system (RPS).
This event had no significant safety consequence since the Reactor Protection System successfully performed its intended safety function upon the failure of the lB Main Steam Isolation Valve.
Corrective Actions
The corrective actions listed below are entered into the site corrective action program.
Any changes to the actions will be managed under the corrective action program.
- 1. The tail links (including the spare) were reworked and full spindle travel to the back seat were verified for HCV-08-1A and HCV-08-1B.
- 2.
The Station will revise the maintenance procedure (and associated vendor manual) for Main Steam Isolation Valve disassembly, inspection, repair and reassembly to include steps to ensure that the valve opens completely until the spindle is on the back seat.
This will also include a caution that that the H-Link pins can be overloaded by the actuator if the valve does not open to the back seat.
Similar Events
A search of the corrective action database was performed and identified no similar issues that were related to the valve failures in this report.
Failed Component(s)
Main Steam isolation Valve Manufacturer The Unit 1 MSIVs were originally manufactured by Schutte & Koerting (S&K).
The replacement valve actuator is manufactured by Enertech.
The new valve internal components replaced in SLl-24 were manufactured by Flowserve based on Kalsi Engineering analysis.
