identify root causes of improper performance of valve motor operators develop means to effectively correct the performance deficiencies, and provide for the technology transfer and commercialization of the developed corrective actions.

Results from a number of industry studies, and especially INP0 Report 83-037 which investigated 644 different licensee event reports, had as a major conclusion that the majority of motor operated valve (MOV) failures analyzed were in some way attributable to the electromechanical switches within the conventional valve motor operator (VMO). Problems discussed centered around the difficulty / uncertainty involved in establishing correct setpoints, especially for torque switches, and the overall reliability of the torque and limit switches. Other discussions in the INP0 report addressed the generally unsatisfactory method of

4 RELIABILITYANDASSURANCE(VALVES) 3 April 1,1986 Meeting providing motor thermal overload protection, and the lack of knowledge as to the mechanical /electromechanical condition of a given MOV.

Beginning in 1984 EPRI began to address the above concerns. The proje.ct has pursued:

1.

Design hardware improvements which can minimize or eliminate the historically documented problems associated with electromechanical components in valve motor actuators. This would include, but not be limited to, improvements in torque switches, limit switches, and motor overload protection devices.

2.

Identify and evaluate appropriate instruments, or design new ones, which can provide diagnostic information on the electrical and mechanical condition of valve motor actuators.

EPRI decided on a microprocessor system that could be developed to perform the functions of the deficient components and to provide diagnostic information and be readily retrofittable.

Information provided to the microprocessor system includes: motor voltage, motor current, phase angle between current and voltage wave forms, valve stem position, and valve stem load. The microprocessor will calculate / evaluate the control variables and make control decisions. The microprocessor approach to control also allows some assessment of what is likely to occur at some future point. By sensing that a particular set point is about to be reached, the microprocessor control system may be arranged so as to trip the VM0 before the setpoint is reached.

The microprocessor can provide in place diagnostic capability. The microprocessor software functions by continually monitoring parameters such as position limit, stem thrust, and motor load. When a condition

RELIABILITY AND ASSURANCE (VALVES) 4 Apr;l 1, 1986 Meeting requiring motor trip is detected, or predicted, the controller chip can be programmed to provide an auxiliary output telling why the trip occurred.

The next step in this research effort will involve the demonstration of the fully developed microprocessor control / diagnostics systems in an operating nuclear power facility. A final EPRI report (4086) will be issued documenting the entire project. Mr. Brooks also noted a Valve Technology korkshop/ Seminar is scheduled for December 3 and 4, 1986 at MEAC, EPRI NDE Center in Charlotte, N.C.

Nuclear Plant Aging Research Program Activities - D. Eissenberg, Oak Ridge National Laboratory The objective of this program is to provide recommendations for use by NRC regarding the availability and capability of diagnostic methods for assuring the operational readiness of nuclear power plant selected safety systems and components.

A number of activities are under way regarding motor-operated valves.

These include:

identifying and characterizing MOV failure modes and causes, and potential parameters to monitor, identifying and characterizing abnormalities found in a limited number of M0Vs installed in four nuclear plants; evaluating MOVATS as a method for providing useful diagnostic information; and identifying and characterizing diagnostics monitoring methods for assuring operational readiness of MOVs.

The following were listed as characteristics of a good diagnostic monitoring system:

detect and differentiate all significant degradations leading to

failures,

t RELIABILITYANDASSURANCE(VALVES) 5 April 1, 1986 Meeting provide reproducible and trendable data, provide data during plant operation, provide criteria for maintenance actions based on operational readiness under worst anticipated conditions, be easily or permanently installed, be usable by utility operations and maintenance staff, and be cost effective in terms of risk reduction compared to alternate approaches.

The following conclusions were reached regarding the M0 VATS diagnostic monitoring system.

It can detect and differentiate incorrect adjustments.

It can detect and, to a limited extent, differentiate time dependent degradations under shutdown conditions. Under question were its ability to trend degradation, its ability to obtain data during plant operation, and its criteria for operational readiness.

It is not convenient to install or remove.

The system is relatively expensive.

Based on the ORNL investigations, the following parameters appear the most useful for detecting and trending time dependent M0V degradatic.1s:

motor current, stem thrust, motor stator winding temperature, and motor / gear box vibration. Motor current has been found to be potentially the most valuable diagnostic parameter for monitoring MOVs.

Other activities related to MOV operational readiness include a utility /0RNL informal workshop on M0V diagnostics and ASME 0&M committee efforts. The ASME work includes OM-10, Requirements for Inservice Testing of Valves in Light Water Cooled Nuclear Power Plants, and OM-8, Requirements for Pre-Operational and Periodic Performance Tests of Motor-0perated Valve Assemblies.

The ORNL program is currently studying additional components including:

auxiliary feedwater pumps, solenoid-operated valves, PORVs, concrete structures, and reactor internals.

RELIABILITY AND ASSURANCE (VALVES) 6 April 1, 1986 Meeting Perspective on NRC Valve Related Work - F. Cherny, NRR Mr. Cherr.y described a number of ongoing projects related to valves that are being addressed by the NRC Staff. A large amount of effort is being expended on Generic Issue 2.E.6.1, "In Situ Testing of Valves." It was noted that if this item were prioritized today it would probably be rated high. The Staff also plans to study all efforts relating to signature tracing measurements produced. As a result of the recent San Onofre check valve failures, a task group has been organized to look at all aspects of check valves including design, testing and maintenance.

Also under Staff review is Generic Issue B-55 which deals with the reliability of Target Rock relief valves in BWRs. Regarding relief i

valves on PWRs the Staff is involved in an ASME operations and-maintenance effort in this area. Generic Issue 70 is also addressing PORV and block valve reliability.

PORVs and block valves are being handled as a separate item.

Progress on Check Valve Aging Assessment for the Nuclear Plant Aging Research Program - D. Eissenberg, ORNL The objective for this program is the same as that for the MOV effort.

ORNL has studied failure causes of valves related to aging and service wear.

Diagnostic monitoring options for detection, differentiation, and trending of check valve degradation were discussed. Methods of monitoring include:

visual examination, inspection during maintenance, fastener tightness, disassembly and inspection, obturator movement, acoustic noise due to leakage, and acoustic noise during actuation.

Mr. Reed suggested x-ray inspection as another option.

RELIABILITY AND ASSURANCE (VALVES) 7 April 1, 1986 Meeting Among toe parameters that are being monitored are dimensions of internals subject to erosion, corrosion, or wear. Appearance of internals (roughness, cracks, and deposits of foreign material) are monitored. Acoustic noise intensity could be monitored. Two other parameters that could be monitored are obturator torque / thrust during movement and fastener torque to loosen.

Currently screening tests are under way for leakage monitoring using acoustic leak detection. Also in progress are examinations of worn check valves, and a check valve flow test stand to validate diagnostic monitoring options (acoustic leak detection, acoustic actuation monitor, and other actuation monitor), ORNL is also studying periodic disassembly and inspection reports from nuclear plants.

Licensing Need for Selected Tasks Under Mechanical Equipment Qualification Research Program - G. Weidenhammer, RES Mr. Weidenhammer noted that work was progressing in the containment isolation valve test program in NRC's Office of Research. This project is primarily related to obtaining information on the leakage characteristics of certain kinds of containment isolation valves once subjected to accident environment. Also under review are valve i

qualification standards, j

It was also explained that an effort is under way to review the capability of isolation valves to shut off a high flow system in the event of a downsteam break outside containment that could affect the operation of other safety systems. This was a concern expressed by the ACRS about one year ago. The current effort is surveying previous work in this area. Work is expected to continue into FY-87. The size of this year's (FY-86) effort is about thirty thousand dollars.

RELIABILITY AND ASSURANCE (VALVES) 8 April 1,1986 Meeting Executive Session (0 pen) i During the final half hour of the meeting the Subcommittee planned for future actions.

In April Mr. Michelson will brief the full ACRS on Subcommittee activities related to valves. Approximately thirty minutes has been allotted for this during the April full Committee meeting.

The Subcommittee will not prepare a report but will continue to monitor developments in the industry.

In general the Subcommittee was pleased with the level of effort they have seen and believes programs are moving in the right direction.

Mr. Reed noted one area of concern to him.

He believes more attention could be given in the area of design application and manufacturing of valves which in certain instances are the root cause for valve failures.

Mr. Brown, AEOD, felt there should be more pressure on the industry to encourage adaptation of the new valve test procedures.

He was uncertain as to whether or not the industry perceived a problem in valve performance. Mr. Brown also noted that the cause of many valve failures can not be traced with the new LER system.

Other failure reporting mechanisms, such as NPRDS, do not provide enough detail to determine the root causes of valve failures.

i The meeting was adjourned at 1:15 p.m.
