.- The Millstone Unit No. 2 containment building includes an equipment hatch,
~
nineteen (19) feet in diameter, provided to permit transfer of large components into and out of the containment. It is fitted with a double gasketed flange around the dished door to minimize leakage in the unlikely event of a loss-of-coolant-accident (LOCA). - Additional details and drawings of the_ equipment hatch door are1 included in Section 5.2.7 of the Final Safety Analysis-Report (FSAR). -
Technical Specification 3/4.9.4 specifies the required status of certain contain-ment penetrations'during core alterations or movement of irradiated fuel within
' the containment.
These requirements ensure that a release of radioactive material within the containment will be restricted from leakage to the environ -
ment. ;The radioactive material released from a postulated fuel element rupture would be. maintained within the building due to the lack of containment pressurization potential while in the refueling mode coupled with the penetration
' integrity requirements.
The temporary equipment hatch door proposed to be utilized during the Cycle 6 refueling outage will consist of a circular % inch steel plate with stiffeners. The door will be mounted to the 3/4 inch thick, 8 inch wide embedded plate which circles'the exterior end of the equipment hatch containment penetration. It will be secured.in place by thirteen (13) studs which will be welded to the embedded plate. Thel attached drawing details 'the proposed equipment hatch door, this drawing is preliminary and four copies are included for the Staff's information.
An O-ring gasket is located between the temporary door and the embedded plate -
to-provide an " air tight" seal between the containment and-the enclosure -
building.
r l
Ten (10) six inch diameter penetrations through the door are provided for various L
hoses and electrical cables needed to' support the steam generator channel head chemical decontamination project. This work is scheduled to be performed in parallel with fuel movement.
The temporary door is designed to maintain 7-
~
L primary containment penetration integrity required by. Technical Specification i
3.9.4 during core alterations or movement of irradiated fuel within the contain-l ment.
The ten (10) penetrations will be isolated by blind flanges when not in use.
Penetrations in which cables or hoses pass through will be sealed with silicone RTV fire ' resistant foam to provide the required sealing.
l The features incorporated into the design of this temporary equipment hatch L
door ensure that containment integrity will be maintained while core alterations or fuel movements are conducted within the containment considering the negligible pressure gradient which will exist across the equipment hatch penetra-
- tion. -
