Dear Mr. Ilayes:
In response to reference (a), we have reviewed the subject bulletin.
Westinghouse has advised us that the types of limit switches discussed in IE Bulletin 79-28 are not included in the West-inghouse supplied safety-related equipment for the Vogtle plant.
For Bechtel supplied safety-related equipment, specifications X5AC01 and X5AC03 call for the use of Namco EA180 limit switches on Fisher butterfly valves. Fisher states that

POSSIBLE MALFUNCTION OF NAMCO MODEL EA180 LIMIT SWITCHES A1 ELEVATED TEMPERATURES Description of Circumstances:
The NRC has been recently advised through a 10 CFR 21 report from Namco Controls that a malfunction of a Namco Model EA180 stem mounted limit switch (SMLS) occurred at the Cooper Nuclear Station. Investigation into the switch failure by the licensee revealed yellow and brown " crystal-like" resin deposits on the internal components of the switch. The affected switch is located inside the ,
I drywell containment at this facility and was being used as the replacement
~
switch for an unqualified SMLS previously identified in IE Eulletin Nos.
78-04 and 79-01.
According to the manufacturer, the problem was traced to a batch of top cover gaskets of which some were over-impregnated and insufficiently heat cured. It
( h'as been determined that this condition can leave an uncured residue of " Loctite" in the gasket, which vaporizes at sustained temperatures above 175'F. To correct the problem, the manufacturer has revised production techniques beginning September 1979.in order to better control the impregnation process and to properly heat cure the gaskets following impregnation. This problem is unique to all Namco Model E/180 series switches received by licensees after March 1, 1979. According '
to the manufacturer, the suspect switches can be identified by checking the date code which is a 4 digit number stamped on the conduit bost of the switch housing.
Namco recommends that any EA180 series switch with a date code between 02-79 through 08-79 should have its top cover gasket replaced. Also, licensees should request from their suppliers of equipment on which Namco EA150 series switches are used that they check their inventory and replace top cover gaskets on switches date coded between 02-79 through 08-79.
The enclosed letter from Namco further describes the high-temperature environ-mental problem with the top cover gaskets used in their EA180 switches and provides recommendations to correct the problem. According to Namco, this letter has been sent to each customer who was shipped EA180 switches between February 21, 1979, and August 24, 1979.
.. 1 Action to be Taken by Licensees of Power Reactor Operating Tacilities and i
Holders of Construction. Permits: .
f '
- 1. Determine if your facility has installed or plans to install Namco EA180 switches in any safety-related equipment loed{e'd inside or outside containment, including valve position indicating circuitry related to
.{ -
containment isolation valves.

(- Page 2 of 2
- 2. If such switches are identified, examine the four digit number stamped on the conduit boss of the switch housing. If this number falls between 02-79 and 08-79, replace the top gasket of the switch in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations provided in the enclosed letter.
~.
3 Submit your plans and programs, including schedules for corrective action, regarding your findings in response to Items 1 and 2 above.
- 4. P.rovide the response in writing within 30 days for facilities holding an operating license and within 60 days for those holders of construction permits. Reports should be submitted to the Director of the appropriate NRC Regional Office and a copy should'be forwarded to the U. S. Nuclear Regulatory. Commission, Office of Inspection and Enforcement, Division of-Reactor Operations Inspection, Washington, D.C. 20555.
Approved by GAO, B180225 (R0072); clearance expires July 31, 1980. Approval was given under a blanket clearance specifically for identified generic problems.

NAMC0 C0NTR0LS August 30, 1979 Attention:
Subject:
Possible malfunction of Namco Model EA180 limit switches at elevated ambient temperatures Gentlemen:
Namco Controls has determined that t'te EA180 series limit switches shipped against your purchase order (s) #___ may have top cover gaskets which will emit a resin vapor at temperatures above 175'F. l This vapor could condense into deposits on the normally open contacts, j possibly causing.a switch malfunction.
We have reported this situation to the NRC, and we are contacting each customer who has received switches with gaskets from the questionable production lot, l with the following recommendations: )
l
( a) If the switches have not been put into service, and the ultimate ambient l
' temperatures are unknown, the top cover gasket should be replaced.
b) If the switches are in service and are subjected to a continuous ambient temperature of more than 175*F, they should be inspected for deposits, the contacts cleaned if necessary, and have the top cover gasket replaced.
2 c) If the switches are in service, (or scheduled for service) in a continuous ambient temperature of 175'F or less, no action is necessary. ,
We will provide you with whatever number of new top cover gaskets you may require, free of charge. Or, if you prefer, we will accept switches returned i
!p -
to our Jefferson plant freight collect, for gasket replacement and/or cleaning. 1 l
We sincerely regret any inconvenience this remedy may cause. If you have any questions, please contact either Robert H. Kantner, 216-268-4200 or John R.
'Bendokaitis, 216-576-4070.
