TITLE: Auxiliary Feedwater System Valve Problem Analysis (AF 599 & AF 608)

REPORT BY: James W. Long PLAN NO.: 12 DATE PREPARED: June 16, 1985 PAGE 1 of 2 This report has been prepared in accordance with the " Guidelines to follow when troubleshooting or performing investigative actions into the root cause surrounding the June 9, 1985, reactor trip", Rev. 2.

INTRODUCTION The following report is the analysis and evaluation to support the action plan for determining the root cause for the failure of AF 599 and AF 608 (AFW to SG isolation valves) to open during the June 9, 1985 reactor trip.

SUMMARY

OF DATA AF 599 and AF 608 are normally locked open valves and were open prior to the transient. During the transient, both valves went shut automatically because of the improper initiation of SFRCS. After the SFRCS was reset,'

both valves failed to open automatically. Operators were then sent to open the valves manually. According to the operator, the valves were placed in manual and the handwheel turned in the open direction. The handwheel was hard to turn and was only moved 1/2 turn in the open direction. The handwheel was then turned in the close direction 1/2 turn to try and'get a hammerblow in the open direction. This was repeated a second time, and when turned in the close direction the second time a rattling noise came from the operator and the valves were opened electri-cally. This rattling noise was probably the tripper fingers being kicked out by the motor and is to be expected.

The actual differential pressure (DP) seen by these valves at the time they were attempting to open is unknown but they are designed to open against a 1050 PSID. At 1515 on 6/9/85, both valves were cycled satisfac-torily within their required stroke time. At that time S/G pressure was 850 PSIG.

A review of maintenance and surveillance testing history shows that the torque switch settings were changed in March 1984 per FCR 84-0039 as a result of the Limitorque motor operated valves study and both valves were satisfactorily tested per ST5064.01 (CTMT Isolation Valve Post Maintenance

. Testing). During the 1984 Refueling Outage, the motors and magnetic brakes were replaced on both valves per FCR 83-0067. The brakes were replaced as part of the environmental qualification of safety related electrical equipment program (10CFR50-49 Rule Requirements). In addition.

AF 599 was disassembled. 3 bearings replaced, relubricated, and reassem-bled. During the testing of AF 599 following this maintenance, a loose spacer was found in the spring pack. This was corrected and both valves were tested satisfactorily. The only normal testing for these valves is a

_ _ stroke time per ST 5071.02 (AFW System 18 month refueling test), which was performed on 12/31/84, with satisfactory results. The brakes were replaced during the outage as noted above.

AFS Analysis Con'd. 2 CHANGE ANALYSIS The only changes identified from the testing performed on 12/31/84 and the 6/9/85 reactor trip is the plant condition when the valves were cycled.

On 12/31/84, the plant was in Mode 5 t'.,eefore, the plant was cold and at i low pressure so the valves did not see a high DP across them. During the i 6/9/85 reactor trip, the plant was in Mode 1, therefore, at normal operat-ing temperature and pressure. Because of their location in the Mechanical Penetration Rooms, they would probably have been close to the ambient temperature of the rooms. However, they would have seen full S/G pressure when shutting. If the upstream check valve leaked, any pressure trapped between the check valve and AF 599 (AF 608) would have bled off. This would have caused a high DP across the valves when attempting to open.

HYPOTHESES Based on the information collected before, during and after the transient, it appears that both valves torqued out when opening. The following is a list of the hypothesis that could cause a valve to torque out. The Action Plan Item that will prove or disprove each hypothesis is listed.

. 1. Improperly adjusted torque switch bypass contact (this hypothesis covered by Action Items 3 and 5).

~

2. Improper torque switch setting (this hypothes1s covered by Action Item 2).
3. Wrong or improperly adjusted spring pack (this hypothesis covered by Action Item 7).
4. Failure of motor brake to release when energized or engage when deenergized (this hypothesis covered by Action Items 3 and 4).
5. Improper torque switch setting calculations (this hypothesis covered  !

by Action Items 8-11).

6. Improper torque switch installation (this hypothesis covered by  !

Action Item 6).

2 7. High DP across valve (this hypothesis covered by Action Item 12).

3 The stem thrust load should be measured to verify the thrust J. Long calculation. MOVATS (Motor Operated Valve Analysis & Test System) should be used to measure valve stem thrust, time of  ;
