Closure of one of the valves in each line vould be sufficient to maintain the integrity of the pressure suppression system.

Automatic initiation is required to sinimize the potential leakage paths from the containment in the event of a loss.of. coolant accident, The maximum closure times for the automatic isolation valves of the primary contain: tent and reactor vessel isolation control system have been selected in consideration of the design intent to prevent core uncovering-following-pipe breaks outside the primary containment and the need to contain released fission products following pipe breaks inside -the prima ry containment.

These valves are highly reliabic, have a lov service requirem)nt, and most are norna11y closed. The initiating sensors and associated trip channels are also checked to de.onstrate the capability for autorratit isolation.

heat exchanger.

Valves are included in the common discharge header to pe rmit the Seismic Class I service water system to be operated as two independent loops.

The heat exchangers are valved such that they can be individually backwashed without interrupting system operation, i

During normal operation two or three pumps will be required. Three pumps are used for a normal shutdown.

The loss of all a.c power vill trip all operating service water pumps.

3 The automatic etne rgency diesel generator start system and emergency equipment starting sequence vill then start one selected service water pump i

in 30 40 seconds.

In the t:2e a nt i me, the drop in service water header l

pressure vill close the turbine building cooling water isolation valve guaranteeing supply to the reactor building, the control room baserment, and the diesel generators from the one service water pump.

Due to the redundance of pumps and the requirement of only ont to meet the accident requirements, the 30 day repair time is justified.

D.

f.rter~ P m Ventilation i

The temperature rise and hydrogen buildup in the battery rooms without adequate ventilation is such that continuous safe operation of equipment in these rooms cannot be assured.

4.12 PASES A.

Main Control Roer Ventilatien System Pressure drop across the combined HEPA filters and charcoal adsorbers of less than 6 inches of water at the system design flow rate vill indicate that the filters and adsorbers are not clogged by excessive amounts of foreign matter.

Pressure drop should be determined at least once per operating cycle to show system performance capability.

Tests of the charcoal adsorbers with halogenated hydrocarbon refrigerant should be performed in accordance with ANSI N510 1980.

The frequency of tests and sample analysis are necessary to show that the HEPA filters and charcoal adsorbers can perform as evaluated.

The test canisters that are installed with the adsorber trays should be used for the charceal adscrber efficiency test. Each sample should be at least two inchas in diameter and a length equal to the thickness of the bed. If test results are unacceptable, all adsorbent in the system shall be replaced with an adsorbent qualified according to Table 5.1 of ANSI N509 1980.

l The replacement tray for the absorber tray removed for the test should meet the same adsorbent quality.

Tests of the HEPA filters with DOP aerosol shall be performed in accordance to ANSI N5101980. Any HEPA filters found defective shall be replaced with filters qualified pursuant to Regulatory Position C.3.d of Regulatory Guide 1.52.
