Title | Safety Injection Accumulator Level Greater than Allowed by Technical Specification |
Event Description | Unit 2 'A' Safety Injection Accumulator level was determined to be greater than level band allowed by technical specification 3.5.1 for Safety Injection Accumulators at 1127 [CST]. A power reduction in preparation for a normal reactor shutdown was commenced at 1215 in accordance with normal plant procedures.
The Safety Injection Accumulator level instruments were in question due to one indicator being within the normal range and the other being off-scale high. During troubleshooting efforts, an ultra-sonic detector was used to verify 'A' Safety Accumulator tank level. The ultra-sonic detector indicated that level was above the high scale indication, and the accumulator was declared OOS due to being above the maximum accumulator volume allowed by SR 3.5.1.2 (<1136 cubic feet). The Unit 2 'B' Safety Injection Accumulator was unaffected by the event and remains operable. The Unit 2 'A' Safety Injection Accumulator level and pressure was returned to technical specification parameters at 1403. The Unit 2 shutdown was stopped with the unit at 82% power and actions are in progress to return to full power operation. The licensee notified the NRC Resident Inspector. |
