Title:

Resin Intrusion Into The No.: 05-1-02-I-5 Revision: 11 Page: 1 Reactor Vessel 1.0 PURPOSE / DISCUSSION 1.1' The purpose of this procedure is to describe the actions to be taken in the event resin is injected into the reactor from either the Condensate Cleanup System or the Reactor Water Cleanup System (RWCU).

1.2 This procedure may interface with the Emergency Plan since a reactor scram and ECCS initiation are possible. This procedure may also interface with one or more of the Emergency Procedures.

1.3 Resin may be injected into the reactor from either the RWCU filter-demineralizers (F/D) or the condensate filters or demineralizers.

In either case the results are the same. The resin intrusion will cause water conductivity and activity to increase substantially while pH decreases substantially. Depending upon the amount and rate of resin injected, these changes may become detectable immediately or only after several hours. The most serious injection could cause a rapid change in vessel chemistry resulting in a large release of nitrogen-16 into the steam lines, causing a steam line high radiation scrum and MVIS isolation. Care shoul4_ht exercised to ensure a. main steam.line.

  • radrition trip is not the result of a fissdE' product release, caus'e3'by a ~ t fuel element failure.

SYMPTOMS .. ..;, '

4.1 If Reactor Scram and MSIV Isolation occurred, refer to ONEP 05-1-02-I-1 Reactor Scram, and EP-1 Level Control.

4.2 Notify the Shif t Supervisor / Superintendent and Chemistry.

~~~'~ ~

5.1~ Proceed to implement the Emergency Plan if necessary, as directed by the Shift Supervisor / Shift Superintendent.

5.2 Reduce reactor power to slow the rate of Conductivity / Activity increase.

5.3 Check Condensate /Feedwater Conductivity and refer to ONEP 05-1-02-V-12, Condensate High Conductivity if necessary.

5.4 Attempt to determine the source of the resin by observing RWCU and Condensate F/D's , and Condensate Deep Bed Demineralizer Parameters.

Check the records on each for anything recently logged cut of the ordinary.

, 5.6 Continue to monitor MSL Radiation and Off Gas Radiation Instrumentation.

l 5.7 If it can be determined that the resin is not (or no longer) coming from the RWCU System, place all available RWCU F/D's service, and begin rejecting reactor water to the condenser.

i' 5.8 As Condensate F/D's and Deep Bed Demineralizers are found not to be the source of resin, place them in service, monitor vessel chemistry indications and take samples to ensure pH, conductivity, and activity are returning to normal.
