JLQDBIN EXAMS:

"A" OTSG: 15,457 Tubes Examined -(100% ofinservice tubes)

  • B" OTSG: 15.380 Tubes Examined (100% ofinservice tubes)

All tubes in both OTSGs had at least one bobbin exam. The bobbin exams were primarily performed from the lower bowls of the generators. There were a limited number of bobbin exams from the upper bowls. The upper bowl exams were performed to obtain bobbin data in the lower bowl robotic manipulator (Roger) exclusion zones (the tubes that the lower bowl Roger manipulator would not be able to test due to the base of the manipulator sitting over the tubes). CR-3 attempted to test each tube full length, however, due to tube end damage in both OTSGs, some tubes were only capable of being tested to within a few inches of the tube end.

The extents tested were:

Indications !dentified with the bobbin coil examination were identified as a non-quantifiable.

Indication (NQl) unless the indication was attributed to wear. NQls identified in 1997 were further dispositioned by the use of a motorized rotating coil probe (MRPC). The probe used.

for these examinations was the ZETEC 520 Plus Point Delta Probe, ZETEC D#3610-7-A.

-This probe head was equipped with a Plus Point coil, a 0.115" diameter pancake coil, and a 0.080" diameter (mid frequency range) pancake coil. Results summary:

ROTATING COIL EXAMS IN UPPER ROLL TRANSITIONS:

1 i

Rotating coil exams were performed at the upper roll transition (hot leg) for each inservice-tube in both _OTSGs. Number of tubes inspected:  ;

"A" OTSG: '15,457 Tubes Examined (100% ofinservice tubes)

"B" OTSG:

15,380 Tubes Examined (100% of inservice tubes)

The scheduled extent of these examinations was from the tube end to two inches below the tube end. This extent of exam was designed to ensure that the entire length of the roll expanded area (about one inch in length) plus about the first half to three quarters of an inch past the roll transition was examined.

The probe used for these exa ainations was the ZETEC 520 Plus Point Delta Probe, ZETEC D#3610-7-A.- This probe head was equipped with a Plus Point coil, a 0.ll5" diameter pancake coil, and a 0.080" diameter (mid frequency range) pancake coil.

CR-3 does not have any qualified sizing techniques for these types of indications. All of the indications identified in these tables were plugged.

Appendixes 5 and 6 contain the inspection results for all tubes plugged in "A" and "B" OTSGs.

U.S. Nuclear R:gul:. tory Commission 3F1297 22 ROTATING COIL EXAh1S IN LOWER TUBESHEET CREVICE REGION:

A 3% sample of the total tube population was examined full length in the lower tubesheet crevice region. 928 tubes were examined from the lower tube end to the secondary face of j the lower tubesheet. This examination was performed only in the "B" OTSG.

The probe used for these examinations whs the ZETEC 520 Plus Point Delta Probe, ZETEC D#3610-7 A. This probe head was equipped with a Plus Point coil, a 0.115" diameter pancake coil, and a 0.080" diameter (mid frequency range) pancake coil.

No reportable indications were identified by this inspection.  ;

BOBBIN COIL EXAMS IN SLEEVED TUBES:

Prior to the 1997 inspection, each OTSG had 163 sleeves in service.

A 22% sample of the total sleeve population was examined full length (of the sleeve) with a bobbin probe. 71 sleeved tubes were examined full length of the sleeve. This examination was performed only in the "A" OTSG.

The sleeve bobbin exams were performed with the ZETEC A-400-FM bobbin probe,50 foot length, ZETEC Part Number 751-0202 or the ZETEC bobbin probe D#3937-1 A,100 foot length.

No reportable indications were identified by this inspection.

ROTATING COIL EXAMS IN St.EEVED TUBES:

A 20% sample of the total sleeve population was examined with a rotating Plus Point probe.

66 sleeved tubes were examined in the roll expansion areas. This examination was performed only in the " A" OTSG.

The probe used for tF~e examinations was the ZETEC OTSG - 0.400" Sleeve Gimbaled Plus Point Probe, ZETLC D#3331-2-A.

No reportable indications were identified by this inspection.

ROTATING COIL EXAMS OF DINGS:

A large quantity of dings were inspected with the rotating coil probe in the Summer 1997-inspections. The probe used for these examinations was the ZETEC 520 Pius Point Delta Probe, ZETEC D#3610-7-A. This probe head was equipped with a Plus Point coil, a 0.115" diameter pancake coil, and a 0.080" diame:er (mid frequency range) pancake coil, in 1997, the ding reporting criteria off the bobbin inspection was established at 3 volts on the

! 400/200 kHz differential mix channel, regardless of ding location. [ Recall that the voltage i normalization in 1997 was established as 4 Vn (volts peak-to-peak) on the 4 x 20%

throughwall holes on 400 kHz.]

10% of the dings @ LTS Secondary Face between 10V and 20V.

3 All dings adjacent to explosive plug locations, in other locations,100% of the dings > 10V.

l This criteria resulted in 441 dings being inspected throughout both generators. A number of additional dings were inspected as a result of scheduled rotating coil exams for first span IGA, i lower tubesheet crevice exams, and other special interest RPC exams, but those ding exams were not counted toward these totals, L No reportable indications were identified by these ding inspections.
