s OPERATIONS
SUMMARY
MAY 1991 THI Unit 1 operated the entire month of May at -93% [cwor producing ~780 MWo gross electrical generation.
Reactor power continues to be limited by high 0750 level caused by secondary side fouling on the "B" loop. As of Hay 31, 1991 the turbine had been on-line continuously for 416 days.
Plant personnel continue to to closely monitor several off normal conditions.
The A Reactor Coolant Pump #1 Seal Leakoff flow has continued to increase.
Monitoring and evaluation o this condition are continuing.
Primary /Socondary leakrate has increased to -0.057 gpm but remains below the administrative limit of 6 gph above baseline.
MAJOR SAFITI_EELATED Mall {IENANCE l
During Hay, the following major Safety Related maintenance items were l
l completed:
hakeuo system __Sgp1 Iniection Filter MU-F-(&
Based on the need to control increasing #1 seal leak-off, Reactor Coolant Pump seal injection filter MU-F-4A was replaced with a different style filter.
A new filter housing and 1 micron filter element replaced the old housing which held a 5 micron filter element.
Elimination of the larger particles from the seal water supply system by the smaller sized filter is expected to positively effect seal performance. All welds passed required inspectione and a hydro-static test of the modified system piping was satisfactorily completed prior to MU-F-4A being turned over for operation.
Nuclear Service River Water Chegk_ Valve NR-V-20B Nuclear Service River Water Pump discharge check valve NR-V-20B was removed from service and disassembled to determine the cause of the disc sticking in the open position.
Upon inspection, it was found that swing arm wear allowed the disc to becomo cocked and wedge in the open position. After the valve seating surfaces were cleaned, a new disc swing arm was installed and the valve reassembled.
Post maintenance testing was satisfactorily completed and the valve returned to service.
