3.2.D Report Eo.:
50-278-75-52 Report Date:
August 20 1975 Occurrence Date:.
August 19, 1975 Facility:
Peach 3ctten Ate =ie Power Station R.D.
1, Delta, Pennsylvania 1731h Identification of Occurrence:
~
3A Reactor Building Exhaus.t Rad monitor.(RIS-3-1T h52A) High Badiation trip set point exceeded Technical Specification limits.
" CoEditions Prior to Occurrence:
Unit 3 was operating at 555 power.
Description of Occurrence.
While performing ST k.2 - Reactor Building Exhaust Radiation =onitor functional test, it was discovered that the 3A Radiation nonitor as found High Radiation trip setpoint was 2h cr/hr.
The Technical Specification limit is ( 16 nr/hr.
Designation of Apparent Cause of Occurrence:
Instrument s etpoint -dF;l ft.
Analysis of Occurrence:
The device is one of four arranged in a one-out-of-two twice logic (which initiates a Group III isolation on reactor zone ventilation exhaust high radiation) such that the high trip setpoint would not have prevented the isolation fro = actuating at the correct.pcint.
For this reason, and.the fact that the device was still functional, the ssfety implication of this cecurrence is nininal.
Corrective Action:
The setpoint was adj ust ed. the calibration checked, a=d the surveillance test was successfully rerun on the 3A nonitor.
Failure Data:
No previcus failures of this type.
Very truly yours,
