s DUKE POWER COMPANY' CATAWBA NUCLEAR STATION SIGNIFICANT DEFICIENCY Report Number: SD 413-414/82-09 Report Date: June 21, 1982 Facility: Catawba Nuclear Station Units 1 and 2 Identification of Deficiency: NRC IE Bulletin 81-02 supplement 1 provided rotification of potential undersizing of electric motor operators (EMOs) for Westinghouse valves.
4 Initial Report:
Initial written. report was made to Mr. J. P. O'Reilly, Region II NRC, via W. O. Parker, Jr.'s letter of April 9, 1982.
Description of Deficiency: Westingliouse letter Catawba-2606 and NRC IE Bulletin 81-02 supplement 1 informed Duke Power of a possible closure problem on Westinghouse Electro-Mechanical Division manufactured gate valves. Westinghouse confirmed by phone that the Limitorque and Rotork motor operators on Catawba valves are undersized. These active valves are supplied per Duke Power Design Specification CNS-1205.00-0008 and Mill Power Order A-98524.
Analysis of Safety Implications: Undersizing'of the Westinghouse valve electric motor operators can result in failure of these active valves to complete their safety functions.
Corrective Action: Westinghous2has completed their technical evaluation of all valve /EMO applications at Catawba to determine if the EMO will meet functional requirements. ENo corrective actions are required on 26, or 46% of the 56 valves.
The corrective actions required on the remaining 30 valves are summarized on.
Manufacturer's drawings will be revised to document any hardware changes by September 30, 1982. Hardware is expected to be availabic by December 31, 1982. Westinghouse has revised their operator sizing procedure to preclude this problem from occurring again.
