a. The MCPR Operating Limit at rated flow versus measured scram time is shown in Figure 5.2-1. The MCPR Operating Limit is 1.39 or greater whenever the measured 90% insertion time is 3.50 seconds or less.
b. During Manual Flow Control, the MCPR Operating limit at reduced flow rates can be determined from:
i. Figure 5.2-2 using the appropriate flow rate, or ii. The rated flow MCPR Operating Limit determined via Figure 5.2-1, whichever is greater.
c. During Automatic Flow Control, the MCPR Operating limit at reduced flow rates can be determined from Figure 5.2-3 using the appropriate flow rate and rated flow MCPR Operating Limit, which is obtained from Figure 5.2-1. Line~r interpolation between the curves on Figure 5.2-3 is permissible .
