Dear Mr. Oprea:

Subject:

Long Term Operability o' Deep Draf t Puaps IE Bulletin 79-15, dated July 11, 1979, was issued to all licensees and holders of construction pernits as a result of deep draf t pump deficiencies that were identified at facilities both operating and under construction.

For pending OL applications, long tem operability of deep draft pumps is now being reviewed by the staff during the nomal licensing review process.

To facilitate the staff review the enclosed docunent entitled, " Guidelines for Demonstration of Operability of Deep Draf t Pumps" is being provided for quidance. You are requested to provide a schedule indicating when a response, in the fom of an Amendnent to FSAPs Section 3.9.3, will be provided that discusses your assurance progran for demonstrating long tem operability of your deep draf t punps and the extent to which it conforms to the various portions of these Guidelines. Enphasis should be placed on (1) the establish-rent of installation procedures that are followed each time these pumps are disassembled and reinstalled, and (2) the testing requirements and bearing wear criteria. The instrunentation called for in the Guidelines should not he considered a requirement.

These Guidelines establish an acceptable method of assuring long tem operability of de~ep draft pumps. They do not necessarily constitute the only nethod for demonstrating long tem operability. The staff will review the information you subnit to detemine whether your long torn operability assurance orocran for deep draft pumps is in sufficient confomance with these Guidelines to assure long tem operability.

If not, tt.e staf f will detemine whether you have established and utilized other methods and procedures, preferably with the assistance of the pump nanufacturer, that also denonstrate and assure that these punps will perform their intended functions for the length of tine required.

The concl.usions which were de. rived frem the analysis anii staff evaluatiens of North Anna, Beaver Valley and Surry facilities with similar pu:ps include:

'/'

l 1.) Pu:ps with this type of configuration are prone to bearing whiri vibration pr:bler:s due to the flexibility of the rotor and casing structure. This phenomenon is accentuated as i

f journal bearing clearance becores large. This phenomenon,

leads to bearing wear (Journal bearings).
