mulator 3
-
and is waiting the completion of the required 20 minute run
before
stopping the Safety Injection Pump in accordance with 1-SO-6
3-1, Cold
Leg Injection Accumulators.
Which ONE of the following identifies...

rates soon enough to
minimize the consequences of the core being uncovered follow
ing a large
break LOCA.
B. (1) The alarm isconsistent.
(2) To ensure sufficient volume of borated water will be immed
iately injected
into the reactor core during the reflooding phase of a large
break LOCA.
C. (1) The alarm is NOT consistent.
(2) To deliver sufficient volume of water to match boil off rates
soon enough to
minimize the consequences of the core being uncovered following
a large
break LOCA.
