Injection pumps start and automatic valves position, (2) Reactor trip, (3) feedwater isolation, (4) startup of the emergency diesel generators, j

(5) containment spray pumps start and automatic valves position, (6) containment isolation, (7) steam line isolation, (8) turbine trip, (9) emergency feedwater pumps start and automatic valves position, (10) containment cooling fans start and automatic valves position, and (11) automatic service water valves position.

The Engineered Safety Features Actuation System interlocks perform the following functions:

l P-4 Reactor tripped - Actuates Turbine trip, closes main feedwater j

valves on T below Setpoint, prevents the opening of the main feedwaterv7aveswhichwereclosedbyaSafetyInjectionorHigh Steam Generator Water Level signal, allows Safety Injection block so that components can be reset or tripped.

Reactor not tripped - prevents manual block of Safety Injection.

P-ll On increasing pressurizer pressure, P-Il automatically reinstates Safety Injection actuation on low pressurizer pressure. On decreasing pressure, P-11 allows the manual block of Safety Injection actuation on low pressurizer pressure, and the manual block of SI and steamline isolation on steamline low pressure. On the manual block of steamline low pressure, manual block of steamline low pressure automatically initiates steamline isolation on steam generator pressure negative rate - high.

P-14 On increasing steam generator water level, P-14 automatically trips the turbine and all feedwater isolation valves; inhibits feedwater control valve modulation; and blocks the start of the startup feed-water pump.

3/4.3.3 MONITORING INSTRUMENTATION 3/4.3.3.1 RADIATION MONITORING FOR PLANT OPERATIONS The OPERASILITY of the radiation monitoring instrumentation for plant operations ensures that:

(1) the associated action will be initiated when the radiation level monitored by each channel or combination thereof reaches its Setpoint, (2) the specified coincidence logic is maintained', and (3) sufficient

~

redundan::y is maintained to permit a channel to be out of service for testing or maintenance. The radiation monitors for plant operations sense radiation levels in selected plant systems and locations and determine whether or not predetermined limits are being exceeded.

If they are, the signals are combined into logic matrices sensitive to combinations indicative of various accidents SEABROOK - UNIT I B 3/4 3-3
