Response to IE Bulletin No. 80-l6, Potential Misapplication of Rosemount Pressure Transmitters

Dear Sir:

Your letter, Reference (b) revealed a potential misapplication problem on Rosemount, Inc. pressure transmitters commonly utilized in both pressure and differential pressure applications. Maine Yankee has completed the necessary review and offers the following information, numbered to correspond with the Bulletin.

The following information is submitted in response to your request for estimates of manpower expended in the research and subsequent performance of actions associated with this letter / bulletin / document:

Manpower Requirements Hours Bulletin Response 37 Manhours Corrective Actions Not Applicable It should be clearly understood that this information is not adequate to enable a value/ impact assessment. The cost of equipment and installation, and the cost of additional resources to perform additional work are also necessa ry.

In addition an adequate determination of the safety improvement as a result of this document needs to be included.

United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission July 29, 1980 Attention:

Mr. Boyce H. Grier Page 2 Response to Question #1:

Table 1 (attached) lists all present and future uses of Rosemount, Inc.

transmitters.

Response to Question #2:

Again, Table i provides the appropriate information accumulated during our review.

Item 4 is the only safety-related use of the transmitters in question. Our review and evaluation has found no case where this transmitter could provide anomalous indications to the operators.

Response to Question #3:

As a result of our review and evaluation we have determined that no corrective actions are required.

We trust this information is satisfactory; however, should you require additional information, please contact us.
