Bechtel Part Identification Q2EGlB001A & B Gentimen:

This is to confirm the information provided to Mr. Richard Kissie frcm the Inspection and Enforcement Office of the N.R.C. in Washin n D.C.

via telephone conversation on Decemoer 2, 1981.

1.

The aftercooler is used to lower the gas discharge temperature of the drywell purge cmpressor, and was supplied by Atlas Copco Turbonetics Inc. for installation in the piping system by Bechtel Corporation.

2.1 The cooler was constructed by the Lytron Inc. in Wobnin, Mass.

under the contract to A.C.T. in ocmpliance with the requirements of the Design Specification 9645-M-050.1.

2.2 This was standard Lytron cooler design, upgraded according to N.R.C. Reg. Guide 1.26 Quality "B".

2.3 As part of Lytron's Standard Design P M ure, Lytron Inc. applied

.001

.002 thick teflon coating to the I.D. of the shell, to facilitate initial assembly of the tube core and prevent deposits (frcm brackish cooling water) adhering to the shell I.D. during testing period.

2.4 Destruction of this teflon film during the scheduled design life time, will noteffect the cooling efficiency nor the operability of the cooler during IOCA condition due to insignificant amounts of teflon material in relation to the size of the baffel clearances and tube spacing.
