These valves will be exercised and stroke timed during Cold Shutdowns per Section XI.
In cases of frequent Cold Shutdowns, these valves need not be exercised and stroke timed more often than once every three months.
Stroke timing will be considered acceptable if the diesel engine achieves the required RPM within 5 seconds.

NONE FUNCTION:
To prevent the diesel engine lube oil from backflowing through the lube oil heater.
TEST REQUIREMENTS:
Exercise valves at least once every three months, in accordance with the requirements of Section XI, paragraph IWV-3520.
BASIS FOR RELIEF:
The diesel engine lube oil system is normally operating whenever the diesel engine is not in service supplying lube oil to engine parts and also through the lube oil heater to maintain the proper oil temperature.
The lube oil heater check valves exercise open to maintain this lube oil flow.
ALTERNATE TESTING:
PSE&G will monitor lube oil pressure and temperature which will verify proper lube oil flow through these check valves thereby satisfying the exercise open flow test.

ECCS Relief valve non-return check and Containment Isolation.
TEST REQUIREMENTS:
Exercise valve at least once every three months, in accordance with the requirements of Section XI, paragraph IWV-3520.
BASIS FOR RELIEF:
Valve cannot be full flow tested in the forward direction due to the size of test connection. This valve cannot be reverse flow tested during Power Operation because a blank flange must be installed, which renders ECCS relief valves inoperable.
ALTERNATE TESTING:
A partial exercise test will be performed in the forward direction, due to the size of the test connection.
The valve will also be periodically disassembled to comply with item #2 of Generic Letter #89-04. Valve will be exercised tested in the reverse direction during Refueling (LLRT)
