The safety limits established to preserve the fuel . The limiting safety system settings appiy to trip cladding integrity apply to* those variallles which settings of the instruments and devices which are.

Objective: Ohjecth*e:

The objective of the safety limits is to establish The objective of the limiting safety system settings limits below which the integrity of the fuel cladding is to define the level of the process variables at whi<:h is preserved. automatic protective action is initiated to prevent the fuel cladding integrity safety limits from being exceeded.

  • Notes I. For the Startup/Hot Standby and Run positions of the reactor mode selector switch, there shall be two operable or tripped trip systems for each function exce*pt.

the SRM rod blocks. IRM upscale and IRM downscale need not be operable in the Run position, APRM downscale, APRM upscale (flow biased), RBM upscale. and RSM downscale need not be operable in the Startup/Hot Standby mode. II the lirst column cannot be met for one ol the 'two trip systems, this condition may exist for up to 7 days provided that during that time the operable system is functionally t.ested immediately and daily thereafter; if this condition lasts longer than 7 days the system shall be tripped. II the first column cannot be met for both trip systems. the systems shall be tripped.

2. WD is the react01 recirculation loop How in percent. Trip level setting is in percent of rated power (2511 MWtl.
3. IRM downscale may be bypassed when it is on its lowest range.
4. This function is bypassed when the count rate is ~100 CPS.
5. One of the four SRM inputs may be bypassed.
6. This SRM function may be bypassed in the higher IRM ranges (ranges 8. 9, and 10) when the IRM upscale rod block is operable.

7.* Not.required to be operable while performing low power physics tests at atmospheric pressure during or alter refueling at powar levels not to exceed 5 MWt:

8. This IRM function occurs when the reactor mode switch is in the Refuel or Startup/Hot Standby position.
9. This trip is bypassed when the SRM is fully inserted.
