Wire rope

  • Directly supp)orts the load
  • Dual reeving provides a redundant load path
  • 5:1 individual rope safety factor
  • 10:1 system safety factor o Testing of the wire rope Breaking strength test from sample of the rope installed
  • Testing of the wire rope end fittings 200% Proof Test based on wire rope strength

Equalizer /Load Transfer System

"* Equalizes rope tension during normal operation

"* Equalizer is single failure proof connecting the dual ropes

"* Design basis is enhanced safety (10:1 Safety Factor)

"* Absorbs energy during a broken rope event

"* Energy is absorbed via a honeycomb crush pad

"* Crush pad is contained in a double acting steel cylinder

"* The piston cylinder was proof load tested at the maximum load transfer value

Braking Systems S1Holding

-rake systems are redundant Primary brake located on high speed shaft

-- Emergency brake located on drum providing redundant drive train

"* Holding brakes rated min. 165% torque where acting

"* Control brake is dynamic provided via the freq. drive

"* All brakes were individually tested at 125% of DRL

  • Any of thie brakes can stop the DRL load in less than 3" inches

Structural Systems

"* Support the mnechanical & electrical systems

"* Structure provides support during & after the SSE

"* Structural systems are passive & not prone to wear

Trolley Frame

"* Indirectly supports the load

"* Is passive and therefore is not subject to wear

"* Is seismically designed to support the load during & after OBE & SSE

"* Is a welded steel plate structure

"* Critical Components testing requirements include:

Load Girt..... CMTR, C of C, & Impact test Welds.......... MT or PT

Drum Catching Device

"* Structural members located V2" below drums

"* Support the drum in the event of shaft or support failure

"* Drum shell f'ailure is not a credible event

"* Critical Con-ponents testing requirements include:

- Device..........CMTR, C of C, & Impact test

- Welds....... MT or PT

Electrical System

"* Provides control of the mechanical energy to move load

"* Operator at all times has 2 means of stopping system

"* Power is removed from crane on sensing of vibration on the floor

"* Removal of power places crane in safe condition

  • Electrical system is not required to function during a seismic event

Flux Vector Variable Frequency Drive

"* Drive is the basis of the electrical system

"* Drive controls the motor & primary brake

"* Provides control braking via dynamic braking

"° Drive provides the following features Torque proving at start Brake checking Load Float (Zero speed)

.- Ability to precisely limit input drive torque

Hoist Upper Travel Limits Redundant limits of differing designs

"* Primary i:,; gýcar type control limit

"* Final is the block actuated (paddle) power !ype limit

"* Final limit removes power from motor

"* Limits are NUREG-0554 alternate design

Over Speed Limits

"* Senses hoist over speed independent of the flux vector drive

"* Limit is electrically isolated from drive

"° Limit provides control redundancy

"* Actuation of limit sets both holding brakes stopping load

Over Weight Limit 0 Limit senses over capacity lifts setting brakes 0 Limit senses load hang-up

  • Limit protects crane from over stress
  • Limit actuation only permits hoist lowering

Wire Rope Protection Limits

"* Drum mnis-spioling limit protects wire rope from mis spooling onto drum

"* Unbalanced load limit protects wire rope & crane from off center lifts

"* Actuation of either limit stops hoisting motion

Emergency Stop Buttons

"* Remove power from the crane Sets holding brakes Placing crane in a safe condition

"* Button located in the cab

"* Toggle switch located on each radio control

Tests completed to confirm Design Compliant with Section 7000 of NOG-1 Tests at ACI'.tCO's test facility Functioinal & Dimensional tests Mechanical & Electrical Inspection 100% & 125% DRL load tests 125% DRL independent brake tests (Stopped within 3")

  • Tests at OCNGS Functional test with load Dimensional inspection Mechanical & Electrical Inspection
  • Completed QA documentation package provided

Compliance with NUREG-0554

"* Failure Modes & Effects Analysis (FMEA) was performed No single failure points were identified

"* NtJREG-0554/0612 compliance matrix was prepared

- No exceptions noted by licensee

"* Design compliance with NUREG-0554 using 0612 Appendix C
