50-277-75 47 June 30, 1975 Pcg2 2 Designation of Apparent Cause of Occurrence:

Failure of the valve motor.

Examination indicated water had entered the motor and caused armature failure. The moisture entry into tha motor was caused by a valve stem packing leak, which had occurred approximately 2 weeks previous to the motor failure.

Analysis of Occurrence:

Since the other isolation valve in this line is operable, the safety implications are minimal. Both Reactor Water Cleanup inlet isolation -valves did isolate on a PCIS Group 2 isolation wFich occurred on a reactor scram several hours earlier.

Corrective Action:

A replacement motor was installed, the operator adjusted and proper valve operation was verified.

Failure Data:

Nane previous.
