IN5TRUMENTATION (Continued)
Radiation Monitoring Bases are discussed in Section 3/4.3.3'.1 below.
l The Engineered Safety Features Actuation System interlocks perform the following functions:
P-4 Reactor tripped - Actuates Turbine trip via P-16, c1cses main feed-
.e water valves on T,yg below Setpoint, prevehts the opening of the main feedwater valves which were closed by a safety Irdection or High Steam Generator Water Level and allows Safety Injection block so that components can be reset or tripped.
Reactor not tripped pgsents manual block of Safety Injection.
P-11
.0n increasing pressurizer pressure, P-11 automatically reinstates Safety Injection actuation on low pressurizer pressure or low compen-sated steamline pressure signals, reinstates steamline Isolation on low compensated steamline pressure signals, and opens the accumulator discharge isolation valves. On decreasing pressure P-11 allows the manual block of Safety Injection actuation on low pressurizer pres-sure or low compensated steamline pressure signals, allows the manual block of steamline isolation on low compensated steamline pressure r
signals and enables steam line isolation on high negative steam
(
line pre,ssure rate (when steamline pressure is manually blocked).
l P-12 On increasing reactor coolant loop temperature, P-12 automatically provides an arming signal to the Steam Dump System.
On decreasing reactor coolant loop temper.ature, P-12 automatically removes the arming signal from the Steam Dump System.
P-14 On increasing steam generator water level, P-14 automatically trips the turbine and the main feedwater pumps, and closes all feedwater isolation valves and feedwater control valves.
3/4.3.3 MONITORING INSTRUMENTATION
- 3/4.3.3.1 RADIATION MONITORING FOR PLANT OPERATIONS The OPERABILITY 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) suffi-cient redundancy 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 and abnormal conditions. Once the required logic combination is
(
completed, the system sends actuation signals to initiate alarms.or automatic isolation action and actuation of Emergency Exhaust or Ventilation Systems.

3/4.3.3.2 MOVABLE INCORE DETECTORS l
, The OPERABILITY of the movable incore detectors with the specified minimum comtLment of equipment ensures that the measurements obtained from use of this system accurately represent the spatial neutron flux distribution of the core. The OPERABILITY of this system is demonstrated by irradiating each detector used and determining the acceptability of
'.its voltage curve.
For the purpose of measuring Fo(Z) or F% a full incore flux map is used. Quarter-core i
flux maps, as defined in WCAP-8648, June 1976, may be used in recalibration of the Excore Neutron Flux Detector System, and full incore flux maps or symmetric incore thimbles may be used for monitoring the QUADRANT POWER TILT RATIO when one Power Range channel is inoperable.
3/4.3.3.3 (NOT USED-i 3/4.3.3.4 (Not Used) 1 3/4.3.3.5 REMOTE SHUTDOWN SYSTEM The OPERABILITY of the Remote Shutdown System ensures that sufficient capability is available to permit safe shutdown of the facility from locations outside of the control room. This capability is required in the event control room habitability is lost and is consistent with General Design Criterion 19 of 10 CFR Part 50.
