General The purpose of the subject test program was to qualify pressure trans-mitters manufactured by Rosemount and Foxboro for use in safety related systems in nuclear power generating stations.
Wyle qualification test plans No. 45352-1 and 4352-2, Rev. A, have incorporated the NRC staff's recommendations and resolved their concerns, and appear to meet the requirements of IEEE Std. 323-1974 and NUREG-0588, Rev. 1.
WVle. Lab. oratories deyelopment.of test procedures, No. 45592-1, dated August 19, 1981, and No. 45592-2, dated July 1, 1981, have been approved for use in implementing the methodologies and requirement of these test plans.
The test procedures include checklist / data sheets which have been completed during the test program, providing auditable records of the qualification testing.
Tne purpose of the inspection, conducted by the RIV NRC inspector and NRC Consultant, was to insure that the Extreme Environment Test were conducted in accordance with the test plans & procedures.
Also the purpose of this inspection was to review documented test records, completed by Wyle personnel, during the test, for acceptance within prescribed margins to meet the IEEE Std 323-1974 and NUREG-0588, Rev.1 requirements.
The RIV NRC inspector and NRC consultant accomplished this effort by review and inspection of checklist / data sheets, documented anomalies, qualification plans, test procedures, other selected documents, and discussion with WVle Laboratory Test personnel.
C.
Extreme Service Conditions Test 1.
Objectives The objectives of witnessing the Extreme Service Conditions Test were to:
~
Review detailed test procedures for conformity to the a.
qualification plans b.
Verify the Extreme Service Conditions Test is performed-in accordance with the detailed test procedures.
To review test results from documented records, and verify c.
test results were well within the prescribed margins of acceptance.
d.
To determine that Notices of Anomalies (NOA's), where required, are prepared in a timely manner.
Review Wyle Quality Assurance Program applicable to test e.
control (Criterion XI).
2.
Findings A five point calibration check, a voltage variation test, and a leak test were performed on each transmitter prior to and following the Extreme Service Conditions Test.
The Extreme Service Conditions Test was performed in the temperature humidity chamber and subjected to predicted extreme services conditions to confirm the capability of performing their safety related functions.
The pressure transmitters were exposed to 25 F uncontrolled relative humidity in excess of 13 hours1.50463e-4 days <br />0.00361 hours <br />2.149471e-5 weeks <br />4.9465e-6 months <br />.
The humidity was not recorded due to sensor freeze up below 32 F.
The duration at 25 F was beyond the 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> called for by procedure to allow completion of 938 cycles of pressure cycling (0-100% of calibrated span).
A vacuum pump was
.added during this period.of the test to assist the existing test apparatus in performing the pressure cycling test within a reasonable amount of time (procedure estimated 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> for 938 cycles.).
The pressure transmitter input voltages were cycled (on-off-on) 18 times after 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> into the 25 F duration.
The pressure tra mitters were exposed to 135 F at 95% relative humidity (as recorded), in excess of 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />, beyond the 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> called for by procedure, again to allow completion of 938 cycles i
of pressure cyc-ling with vacuum as.sist.
The pressure transmitter input voltages were again cycled (on off on) 18 times after 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> into the 135 F duration.
Test data was obtained on each transmitter during each phase of the Extreme Service Conditions Test.
The 5 point calibration checks, voltage variation tests, and leak test, were well within the acceptance margins.
Two (2) Notice of Anomalies (NOA's) were issued during this portion of the test.
Both occurred during the pressure / leak tests in which bubble leakage was noted on sealed interfaces of Rosemount differential transmitters models 1153003, 1153005, 1153HD7, and Foxboro gauge transmitters models N-E11GM-HIE 2, NE11GH-IIM2.
Neither NOA's impacted any' data sheet accuracies as recorded.
Review of detailed Test Procedures 45592-1 section 20.0 and 45592-2 section 20.0, by the NRC inspection team, concluded they were in accordance with the Qualification Test Plan 45352-1 and 45352-2, Rev A, 1 sections 3.3.
3.
Quality Assurance Program Review During the inspection visit the NRC - RIV inspector reviewed the Wyle Quality Assurance Policies and Procedures Manual, Revised and Issued July 1981, to assure compliance with 10 CFR 50 Appendix B and ANSI Standard N45-2-1977, as called for by the Wyle Qualification Plan No's_ 45352-1 and 45352-2, Rev A, section 1.2.
The NRC-RIV inspector reviewed only that part of the program applicable to test control (criterion XI), to assure that QA requirements and controls were adequate and in force, to temonstrate that Wyle testing is i
documented and evaluated by responsible authority.
The NRC-RIV inspector reviewed and discussed with the responsible Quality Control Specialist, section 10.1 paragraphs 5.2 & 5.3, and section 11.1 paragraphs 3.2, 4.1 & 4.3, of the above QA Policies &
Procedures Manual.
The NRC-RIV inspector determined that controls were adequate to cover the regulatory requirements of Appendix B.
Weaknesses in the QA controls as obser.ed by the NRC-RIV inspector are as follows:
The QA Policies and Procedures Manual did not require formal a.
data sheets to be prepared for scheduled tests, in which test results would be formally documented during test, both legible, identifiable, and retrievable.
Section 10.1 paragraph 5.3.1.1 of the QA Manual states "that the Test Monitor shall determine -
,, if any special. data, s.heets are required to the scheduled test."
The WEPC0 Phase II Test Program procedures (N0. 45592-1 and 45592-2) employ checklist / data sheets as an integral part of the procedural sequence.
This formal documentation method is being carried out adequately during the WEPC0 testing. The QA Policies and Procedures Manual of all Test programs should include the requirement for formal checklist / data sheets which comply to 10 CFR 50 Appendix B/ ANSI N45.2-1177.
The NRC-RIV. inspector found that Wyle personnel performing QA functions, have the responsibility and authority to effectively carry out the QA program.
4.
Summary Based on the information above, the NRC-RIV inspector determined a.
that:
The Extreme Service Conditions Test and test records, for the above subject electrical equipment, reasonably assures, as evidenced by test results within the prescribed margins, that the requirements of NUREG-0588 Rev 1 (IEEE Std 323-1974) for extreme service, have been met.
The results of this report will therefore be used by the NRC staff to evaluate the above subject equipment, pending completion of all environmental qualification tests as required by the Commission.
~
b.
The Wyle Quality Assurance Program Manual contains requirements ar.d controls, under that part of the program applicable to test cc, trol (Criterion XI), which when properly implemented, complies with the requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B/ ANSI N45.2-1977.

Summary:
The purpose of this inspection was to review the test document and to witness the Extreme Service Conditions Test on the Rosemount 1153 Series D and Foxboro N-E10 Series Pressure Transmitters.
This test is phase II of the utilities test program designed to qualify the above transmitters to NUREG 0588 - Category I, and to IEEE Std. 323-1974-Rev. 1.
In addition, the inspection was to review part of the Wyle Quality Assurance Program (Policies and -
Procedures Manual) that is applicable to the test control (criterion XI) to assure compliance with 10 CFR 50 Appendix B and ANSI Std.
N45.2-1977.- This inspection was a continuation of that performed by the NRC staff and NRC RIV on November 17-24, 1981 (Docket No.
99900902/81-04 Report No. 3, and 99900902/81-06 Report No. 4).
