  • [@$*I!1sNumentation B 3.3.1.1 BASES SURVEILLANCE SR 3.3,1.1.16 REQUIREMENTS This SR ensures that scrams initiated from the Turbine Stop (continued) Valve Closure and Turbine Control Valve Fast Closure, Trip 011 Pressure-Low Functions will not be inadvertently i bypassed when THERMAL POWER is t 40% RTP. This involves I

calibration of the bypass channels. Adequate margins for i I

the instrument setpoint methodology are incorporated into I the actual setpoint.

If any bypass channel setpoint is nonconservative such that the Functions are bypassed at a 40% RTP (e.g., due to open l main steam line drain (s), main turbine bypass valve (s) or other reasons), then the affected Turbine Stop Valve closure and Turbine Control Valve Fast Closure, Trip Oil Pressure-Low Functions are con'sidered inoperable.

Alternatively, the bypass channel can be placed in the conservative condition (nonbypass). If placed in the nonbypass condition, this SR is met and the channel is considered OPERABLE.

The Frequency of 18. months is based on engineering judgment and reliability of the components.

SR 3.3.1.1.17 This SR ensures that the individual channel response times are less than or equal to the maximum values assumed in the accident analysis. The RPS RESPONSE TIME acceptance criteria are included in plant Surveillance procedures.

As noted, neutron detectors are excluded from RPS RESPONSE TlHE testing because the principles of detector operation virtually ensure an instantaneous response time. In MO addition, for Functions 3, 4, and 5, the associated sensors ll w p w M .$c4 re not required to be response time tested. For these Functions, r ng for the remaining channel componen , ir.cluding the ^"s v is required. This allowance ll is suppor e e cu 10.

SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS responds to the measured parameter within the necessary range and accuracy. CHANNEL CAllBRATION leaves the channel adjusted to account for instrument drifts between successive calibrations consistent with the plant specific setpoint methodology.

The Frequency of SR 3.3.6.1.4 and SR 3.3.6.1.6 is based on the assumption of the magnitude of equipment drift in the setpoint analysis.

SR 3.3.6.1.6 The LOGIC SYSTEM FUNCTIONAL TEST demonstrates the OPERABILITY of the required isolation logic for a specific i channel. The system functional testing performed on PCIVs l l

in LC0 3.6.1.3 and on drywell isolation valves in LC0 l 3.6.5.3 overlaps this Surveillance to provide complete  !

testing of the assumed safety function. The 18 month l i

Frequency is based on the need to perform this Surveillance under the conditions that apply during a plant outage and the potential for an unplanned transient if the Surveillance were performed with the reactor at power. Operating experience has shown these components usually pass the Surveillance when performed at the 18 month Frequency.

The Self Test Syrtem may be utilized to perform this testing for those components that it is designed to monitor. Those

! portions of the solid-state logic not monitored by the Self' Test System may be tested at the frequency recommended by l the manufacturer, rather than at the specified 18-month l

Frequency. The frequencies recommended by the manufacturer are based on mean time between failure analysis for the components in the associated circuits.

SR 3.3.6.1.7 This SR ensures that the individual channel response times are less than or equal to the maximum values assumed in the accident analysis. Testing is performed only on channels l where the assumed response time does not correspond to the l

I diesel generator (DG) start time. For channels assumed to respond within the DG start time, sufficient margin exists I in the 12 second start time when compared to the typical channel response time (milliseconds) so as to assure adequate response without a specific measurement test.
