6-3FHAR6B.TMIRev27.docAuxiliary BuildingThis building covers elevations 261*-0, 271*-0, 281*-0, and 305*-0. All equipment is located in open areas or cubicles with open doorways. Allareas have floor drains with backwater valves to prevent cross flooding of adjacent compartments and equipment pads higher than doorthresholds to prevent the accumulation of standing water and prevent flooding of any floor mounted safety related equipment.Fire protection for all areas consists of hose reels at accessible locations with adequate hose length to reach the equipment to be protected foreach area. One location, AB-FZ-4 (penetration area-elev. 281*-0) is protected by an automatic pre-action sprinkler system and AB-FZ-7(cooling pump area-elev. 305*-0) is protected by an automatic pre-action sprinkler system, which forms a water curtain for the openpassageway to adjacent zone AB-FZ-6. Water from the floor drain system flows by gravity to the Auxiliary Building Sump located at elevation261*-0 where it is pumped to holding tanks. The expected water to be discharged from simultaneous operation of two (2) fire hoses is 250 gpm.The maximum expected flow from either of the two automatic pre-action sprinkler systems is about 400gpm. With an average of 30 floor drainsavailableon each Auxiliary Building elevation and assuming the drain system is running full, 1600 gpm can be removed to the sump.Charcoal filter plenums in the Aux and Fuel Handling Ventilation and Reactor Purge Systems (elev. 305*-0) contain deluge systems, the largestof which could discharge a total of 408 gpm. This water remains contained within each filter housing and is allowed to drainat a combined flowrate of 130 gpm through 55 separate 1 diameter check valves to open area floor drains adjacent to each filter housing. The main filter roomcontains 3 separate floor drains with a combined capacity of 160 gpm flowing full.The following lists major safety related components in the Auxiliary Building with a discussion of water damage prevention features:TABLE 6-1WATER DAMAGE STUDYAUXILIARY BUILDINGEQUIPMENTFIRE AREA/ZONETYPE OF FIRE SUPPRESSIONDISCUSSION1A & 1B Eng.

More substantialprotection has been provided by a fire barrierconstructed between the two MCCs, thus preventingfire suppression activities at one MCC from affectingthe redundant train MCC.
