, Four sets of two radiation monitors are provided which t initiate the Reactor Building Isolation function and operation of

the standby gas treatment system. Four instrument channels monitor the radiation from the refueling area ventilation exhaust ducts and four instrument channels monitor the building ventilation below the refueling floor. Each set of instrument channels is arranged in a 1 out of 2 twice trip logic.

Trip settings of less than 16 mr/hr for the monitors in the refteling area ventilation exhaust ducts are based upon initiating normal ventilation isolation and standby gas treatment system operation so that none of the activity released during the refueling accident leaves the Reactor Building via the normal ventilation path but rather all the activity is processed by the standby gas treatment system.

Two channels of nonsafety-related radiation monitors are provided in the main stack. Trip signals from these monitors are required only when purging the containment through the SGTS and containment integrity is required. The trip signals isolate primary containment vent and purge valves greater than 2 inches in diameter to prevent accidental releases of radioactivity offsite when the valves are open. This signal is added to fulfill the requirements of item II.E.4.2(7) of NUREG-0737.

I Flow integrators are used to record the. integrated flow of liquid from the drywell sumps. The integrated flow is indicative of reactor coolant leakage. A Drywell Atmosphere Radioactivity Monitor is provided to give supporting information to that supplied by the reactor coolant leakage monitoring system. (See Bases for 3.6.C and 4.6.C)

Some of the surveillance instrumentation listed in Table 3.2.F are required to meet the accident monitoring requirements of NUREG-0737, Clarification of TMI Action Plan Requirements. >

This instrumentation and the applicable 11UREG-0737 requirements are:

1. Wide range drywell pressure (II.F.1.4)
2. Subatmospheric drywell pressure (II.F.1.4)
3. Wide range suppression chamber water level (II.F.1.5)
4. Main stack high range radiation monitor (II.F.1.1)
5. Reactor building roof vent high range radiation monitor (II.F.1.1)
6. Drywell hydrogen concentration analyzer and monitor (II.F.1.6)  ;
7. Drywell high range radiation monitors (II.F.1.3) 8.

'4.2 BASES (Cont'd)

The radiation monitors in the refueling area ventilation duct which initiate building isolation and standby gas treatment  ;

operation are arranged in a 1 out of 2 twice logic system. The ,

bases given above for the rod blocks apply here also and were used to arrive at the functional testing frequency. The air ejector off-gas monitors are connected in a 2 out of 2 logic I arrangement. Based on the experience with instruments of similar '

design, a testing interval of once every three months has been found adequate.

Radiation monitors in the main stack which initiate containment isolation are not safety-related and are required

, only during containment purging through the SGTS and when containment integrity is required, an activity which occurs ,

infrequently. Therefore, a twelve (12) month calibration interval is appropriate.

The automatic pressure relief instrumentation can be considered to be a 1 out of 2 logic system and the discussion above applies also.

  • Group 2D - line (traveling in-core probe) is isolated on high drywell pressure or reactor low water level (538"). This is to ,

assure that this line does not provide a leakage path when containment pressure indicates a possible accident condition.

Group 3: Actuation for isolation of valves and dampers associated with the ventilation systems. Group 3 lines are connected to the primary containment but not directly to the reactor vessel. These ,

valves are isolated on reactor low water level (538"), high drywell pressure, reactor building ventilation high radiation which would indicate a possible accident and necessitate primary containment isolation, or refueling floor ventilation high radiation which would indicate a possible refueling accident or main stack high-high radiation (a nonsafety-related signal) during containment purging -

thrcugh SGTS in accordance with Section 3.8.C.8a. The group 3 '

isolation signals, with the exception of main stack high-high radiation, also " isolate" the reactor building and start the Standby Gas Treatment System. It is not desirable to actuate the group 3 1 isolation signal by a transient or spurious signal. ,

The main stack high-high radiation signal (which is nonsafety-related in accordance with NUREG-0737) will isolate only those vent and purge valves which are greater than two inches in diameter during containment purging.

Groups 4 and 5: Actuation associated with process lines that are designed to remain operable and mitigate the consequences of an accident which results in the isolation of other process lines. The signals which initiate isolation of Group 4 and 5 process lines are therefore indicative of a condition which would render them inoperable. Groups 4 and 5 are subdivided as follows: '

Group 4A: - process lines are closed on reactor low water level (490") or high drywell pressure. These close on the same signal that initiates HPCIS to ensure that the valves are not open when HPCIS action is required.

Group 4B - line is isolated on high drywell pressure if the EPCI System has been rendered inoperable by low steam line pressure.

Group SA process lines are closed only on reactor low water level (490"). These close on the same signal that initiates RCICS to ensure that the valves are not open when RCICS action is required.

Group SB - line is isolated on high drywell pressure if the RCIC  !

system has been rendered inoperable by low steam line pressure. I i

The maximum closure times for the automatic isolation valves of the I primary containment and reactor vessel isolation control system have  ;

been selected in consideration of the design intent to prevent core uncovering following pipe breaks outside the primary containment and the need to contain released fission products following pipe breaks inside the primary containment.
