OcoNTRol L.ED coPY 3/4. 3 INSTRUMENTATION BASES 3/4. 3. 1 REACTOR PROTECTION SYSTEM INSTRUMENTATION The reactor protection system automatically initiates a reactor scram to:

a.

Preserve the integrity of the fuel cladding.

b.

Preserve the integrity of the reactor coolant system.

c.

Minimize the energy which must be adsorbed following a loss-of-coolant

accident, and d.

Prevent inadvertent criticality.

This specification provides the limiting conditions for operation necessary to preserve the ability of the system to perform its intended function even during periods when instrument channels may be out of service because of main-tenance.

When necessary, one channel may be made inoperable for brief intervals to conduct required surveillance.

The reactor protection system is made up of two independent trip systems.

There are usually four channels to monitor each parameter with two channels in each trip system.

The outputs of the channels in a trip system are combined in a logic so that either channel will trip that trip system.

The tripping of both trip systems will produce a reactor scram.

The system meets the intent of IEEE-279 for nuclear power plant protection systems.

Specified surveil-lance intervals and surveillance and maintenance outage times have been determined in accordance with NEDC 30851 P, "Technical Specification Improve-ment Analyses for BWR Reactor Protection System,"

as approved by the NRC and documented in the SER (letter to T. A. Pickens from A. Thadani dated July 15, 1987).

The bases for the trip settings of the RPS are discussed in the bases for Specification 2.2.1.

The measurement of response time at the specified frequencies provides assurance that the protective functions associated with each channel are com-pleted within the time limit assumed in the safety analyses.

No credit was taken for those channels with response times indicated as not applicable.

Response

time may be demonstrated by any series of sequential, overlapping or total channel test measurement, provided such tests demonstrate the total channel response time as defined.

Sensor response time verification may be demonstrated by either (1) inplace, onsite or offsite test measur e

(2) utilizing replacement sensors with certified response times.

channel may be ino rable for brief intervals to conduct required surveilla Some of th ip settings may have tolerances explicitly stated where both th ow values are critical and may have a substantial effect on safety.

The setpoints of other instrumentation, where only the high or low end of the setting have a direct bearing on safety, are established at a level away from the normal operating range to prevent inadvertent actuation of the systems involved.

Except for the MSIVs, the safety analysis does not address individual sensor response times or the response times of the logic systems to which the sensors are connected.

For D. C.-operated

valves, a 3-second delay is assumed before the valve starts to move.

For A.C.-operated valves, it is assumed that the A.C. power supply is lost and is restored by startup of the emergency diesel generators.

In this event, a time of 13 seconds is assumed before the valve starts to move.

In addition to the pipe break, the failure of the O.C.-operated valve is assumed; thus the signal delay (sensor response) is concurrent with the l3-second diesel startup.

The safety analysis considers an allowable inventory loss in each case which in turn determines the valve speed in conjunc-tion with the 13-second delay. It follows that checking the valve speeds and the 13-second time for emergency power establishment will establish the response time for the isolation functions.
