Title | Technical Specification Required Shutdown Commenced Due to Inoperability of Residual Heat Removal Containment Sump Isolation Valves |
Event Description | At 2240 09/20/2005 an engineering evaluation concluded that the Residual Heat Removal Containment Sump Isolation Valves were inoperable based on their inability to open against a higher differential pressure than had been previously evaluated. Historically Wolf Creek has operated with the Component Cooling Water isolated to the Residual Heat Removal Heat Exchangers. If the pumps started during accident conditions there is a potential that the pump heat generated could cause system pressure to increase to the suction relief valve setting of 450 psig. Testing of the valves has shown that they are capable of opening with 207 psid across the valve.
Technical Specification 3.0.3 was entered at 2240 9/20/2005 due to the inoperability of both Residual Heat Removal trains. Power reduction was commenced at 2340. Component Cooling Water was aligned to the Residual Heat Removal Heat Exchangers at 0004 9/21/2005 restoring operability of the Residual Heat Removal trains. At 0017 9/21/2005 actions were commenced to restore power to 100%. This event is reportable under 10 CFR50.72(b)(2)(i) Technical Specification required shut down (4 hour4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br />) and 10 CFR50.72(b)(3)(v)(B) Event or Condition that could have prevented fulfillment of a Safety Function (8 hour9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br />). The NRC Resident has been contacted.
Evaluation of the Residual Heat Removal Containment Sump Isolation Valves concluded that the valves were operable and the Residual Heat Removal trains were capable of fulfilling their safety function. Therefore, this event is not reportable under 10 CFR 50.72(b)(3)(v)(B). The licensee notified the NRC Resident Inspector. Notified the R4DO (Whitten). |
