During the power hold window, plans were to clean the main condenser's inlet waterboxes in order to regain megawatts lost due to tubesheet fouling.
In onder to perform the cleaning, one of the circulat ing water pumps was required to be shut of f.
While recoverin;; f rom these activities, at 81% l'P, the turbine tripped (Feb. 28 at 2143 hours0.0248 days <br />0.595 hours <br />0.00354 weeks <br />8.154115e-4 months <br />) on low l
vacuum due to a circulating water pump's motor operated discharge valve failing to shut. The valve failed to shut because of a set screw backing out which released the key on the pinion gear.
