Dear Mr. Denton:

^

In respons'eito Proposed License Condition 18, Containment Purge Valve
0perability, my letter of September 5,1984 provided information to *

. demonstrate the operability of valves VQ2A, VQ3B, VQ15B and VQ16A. The following information.is provided to supplement the previous submittal.

As noted;in'.the September 5,1984 submittal, all four valves were supplied with'Rotork; electric. motor. operators set at 45 ft-lbs of' output torque.

This -torque is.'more than adequate' to assure valve closure against accident.

1

-pressures.

It is _ estimated that 4 ft-lbs f of; torque would be required to (operate the. val.ves VQ2A-and VQ16A against an accident pressure of 15 psig tand to overcome' stem or packing loads and 14 ft-lbs:of. torque for valves VQ3B' and'VQ15B to operate under the same conditions. lThe valve manufacturers

'have confirmed that the-45 ft-lbs output. torque of the electric' motor operator would notadamage the-. valves nor inhibit the valves from performing.

their intended function.

r

'To' assisti tihe Staff in their review of the qualification of these valves copies of-the valve specification, seismic report, frequency report and

the static deflection-test results for valve items 5B-473 and 28-400.are attached Five-identical-valves are included in item 5B-473, two of the valves are VQ2A and-VQ16A....-Ten identical valves are included'in 2B-400, two of these

._J valves are VQ3B and VQ15B.

.Very truly yours,.
