9.0 PRECAUTIONS 9.1 Observe the precautions, limitations, and special operator instructions given SUP 90.0, sections 9.3 and 10.3. (ref. 2.2) 9.2 When RCS pressure drops below P-11 (1915 psig) manually block SI or the reactor will trip when the setpoint (1765 psig) is reached.

9. 3 Aux. spray should not be used during the measurement portion of this' test.

9.4 When RCS temperature is reduced to maintain the saturation margin, maintain Tc above 531°F.

9.5 This test should be performed concurrently with SUP 90.5 (natural circulation at reduced pressure), and they should be performed as few times as practical.

This limitation is imposed because of the reduced saturation temperature margin_

  • 9.6 experienced during these tests.

Maintain the operating parameters within the limits of the special operator instructions posted per SUP 90.0.

9.7 Should a reactor trip take place during the performance of this test, restart at least one reactor coolant pump (#23) prior to closing the reactor trip breakers .

SUP 90.3 Salem Unit 2 Rev. 2

INSTRUCTIONS 10.1 Start the P-250 T/W trend printing the points specified in Appendix A.

10.2 Start the Brush Recorders on high speed (125 I1Un/min}.

10.3 Turn off the pressurizer heater control group, by depressing the OFF pushbutton on its bezel at the main control board. Adjust pressure to 2100 psig.

10.4 Stop all four Reactor Coolant Pumps simultaneously. (Leave oil lift pumps running}

10.5 Verify Natural Circulation is established.

NOTE Expected plant *response is as follows:

Wide Range TH Increase to approximate 590°F Wide Range Tc Approximately constant or slight decrease (5-10°F)

Incore T/C's Increase to approximate 590°F Pressurizer Level Increase to approximate 35%

Natural Circulation will be stable when:

Incore thermocouples and loop Wide Range TH are stable and approximately equal.

~T between Wide Range TH.and '.!'.c is constant Steam Generator Levels are steady or varying slowly with constant feed.

10.6 Secure the pressurizer back-up heater groups 21 and 22 by pressing the MAN pushbutton and OFF pushbuttons on their respective bezels at the main control console. If branching from SUP 90.1, turn off control heater group, as well.

10.7 Maintain pressurizer level approximately constant after equilibrium conditions are reached by adjusting charging flow to match letdown and seal leakoff.

NOTE Maintain RCP seal injection flow per Operation Instruction OI II-1.3.l, "RCP Operation". See also SUP 90.0, para. 9.1.2 10.8 Once equilibrium is established adjust Brush Chart Recorder speeds as directed by the Test Engineer.

10.9 Begin obtaining short form incore T/C and SUilllnary flux maps periodically at instruction of the T/E for power level and distribution determination. Use P-250 test 41 for display of location of hottest incore T/C.

  • NOTE If SUP 90.5 is being run concurrently, begin recording required data for that SUP.

SUP 90.3 Salem Unit 2 Rev. 2

Depressurization is sensitive to RCS Temp.

When Tc+ Pressurizer Temp.+ due to insurge, increasing the depressurization rate.

10.10 Monitor RCS pressure to determine the rate of depressurization. Record the highest rate observed.

Pressurizer cooldown ____ °F/hr.

depressurization _ _ __,psi/hr.

(expected depressurization is 40-50 psi/hr.)

10.11 Observe the saturation meter when the saturation margin approaches 20°F increase steam dump or' charging flow, as specified by the Test Engineer.

NOTE Charging must be increased to maintain pressurizer level and pressure, when reducing Tc 10.12 Continue the depressurization and cooldown. Block low-pressure SI when pressure reaches the P-11 setpoint (1915 psig) to prevent tripping the reactor if the low pressure SI setpoint is reached. Close the PORV block valves 2PR6 and 2PR7.

10.13 When the test engineer is satisfied that sufficient data has been recorded to meet the requirements of this test (and those of SUP 90.5, if run concurrently), increase the saturation margin, by using charging flow and/or steam dump.

Do not allow pressurizer level to go above 70%.

_ _10.14 Once saturation margin is increased or pressurizer level reaches 70%, reactivate pressurizer heaters to increase RCS pressure back to 2235 psig.

NOTE Avoid overpressurizing, use auxiliary spray if necessary.

10.15 Verify pressurizer pressure control in AUTO (return heaters to AUTO). Reopen the PORV block valves closed in step 10.12.

10.16 Shutdown the reactor by inserting control bank D to zero steps using Manual Rod Control, in Bank D Select.

10.17 Restart all four reactor coolant pumps in accordance with Operating Instruction II-l.3.1, "RCP Operation" (reference 2.3.l), beginning with loop 23.

SUP 90.3 Rev. 2 Salem Unit 2 I

  • 10.18 Return pressurizer level to approximately 22% and restore charging flow control to AUTO.

10.19 Restore to normal the reactor protection system modifications made in prerequisites 3.5, 3.6, and 3.7, unless further testing is required. In this case, N/A the step and proceed to establish initial conditions for the next test.

10.20 Record the names of all licensed operators participating in or observing the test in Appendix B, as appropriate.

10.21 Retrieve and attach chart recordings and P-250 printouts per paragraph 8.2-8.6 (see also paragraph 8.8)
