CONTAINMENTSYSTEMS 3/4.6.1.4 INTERNALPRESSURE The limitations on containment internal prcssure ensure that I) the containment structure is prevented from exceeding its design negative pressure differential with respect to the outside atmosphere of 8 psig and 2) the containment peak pressure does not exceed the design pressure of 12 psig during LOCA conditions.

3/4.6.1.5 AIR TEMPERATURE Thc limitations on containment average air temperature ensure that I) the containment air mass is limited to an initial mass sufficiently low to prevent excccding the design. pressure during LOCAconditions and 2) the-ambient air temperature does not exceed that temperature allowable for the continuous duty rating specified for equipment and instrumentation located within containment.

Both the upper and lower temperature limits are consistent with the parameters used in the accident analyses.

3/4.6.1.6 CONTAINMENTVESSEL STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY This limitation ensures that the structural integrity of the containment steel vessel will be maintained comparable to the original design standards for the lifeof thc facility. Structural integrity is required to ensure that (I) the steel liner remains leak tight and (2) the concrete surrounding the steel liner remains capable ofproviding external missile protection for the steel liner and radiation shielding in the event ofa LOCA. A visual inspection in conjunction with Type A leakage tests is sufficient to demonstrate this capability.

The lower temperature limitof60'F willlimitthe calculated peak containment pressure to less than the containment design pressure of 12 psig.

The calculation for maximum peak containment pressure folio;vinga LOCA assumes an initialcontainment pressure ofpositive 0.3 psig and demonstrates that the 12 psig containment design pressure willnot be exceeded.
