| Title | Manual Reactor Trip During Startup |
| Event Description | At 1121 CDT on June 16, 2018, Arkansas Nuclear One, Unit 1 (ANO-1) performed a manual reactor trip due to a Turbine Bypass valve failing open on reactor startup. At the time, ANO-1 was in Mode 2 at approximately 2 percent power.
The failed Turbine Bypass valve resulted in an overcooling event and the Overcooling Emergency Operating Procedure (EOP) was entered. Main Steam Line Isolation (MSLI) automatic actuation occurred on 2 of the 4 channels of Emergency Feedwater Initiation and Control during the overcooling event in the 'B' Steam Generator. The remaining channels of MSLI were manually actuated by the control room staff from the control room. Overcooling was terminated after the closure of the Main Steam Isolation Valve (MSIV) and reactor coolant parameters were stabilized as directed by the Overcooling EOP. Additionally, Gland Sealing Steam was lost to the main turbine due to the closure of the 'B' Steam Generator MSIV and Loss of Condenser Vacuum Abnormal Operating Procedure was entered. This is a 4-hour non-emergency 10 CFR 50.72 (b)(2)(iv)(B) notification due to a Reactor Protection System actuation (scram) and an 8-hour non-emergency 10 CFR 50.72 (b)(3)(iv)(A) notification for safety system actuation." All control rods fully inserted into the core during the trip. Heat removal is via the Atmospheric Dump Control valves to atmosphere. The NRC Resident Inspector has been notified. The licensee also notified the State of Arkansas. |
