Radioactive Gaseous Effluent Instrumentation The radioactive gaseous effluent instrumentation is provided to monitor the release of radioactive materials in gaseous effluents and, as appropriate, to control potential releases.

Instrumentation for monitoring the concentration of potentially explosive gas mixtures in the main condenser offgas treatment system is also provided. The presence of instruments for monitoring both radioactive and explosive gaseous effluents is depicted in ODAM Figure 3-1.

The OPERABILITY and use of these instruments implements the requirements of 10CFR Part 50 Appendix A, General Design Criteria 60, 63, and 64.

Reactor building exhaust ventilation shaft radiation monitors initiate isolation of the reactor building normal ventilation and start standby gas treatment when a high trip point is reached.

DAEC is equipped with a radioactive gaseous effluent monitoring system which includes detectors at the offgas stack (R3), the reactor building vent (R4), the turbine building vent (RS), and the LLRPSF vent. A l

remote indication and control unit located near each detector displays the detector reading and, whenever the setpoint is exceeded, an indicator light. Tne data are also routed to a control computer and a control room display and, except for the LLRPSF vent detector, do not cause a trip to isolate the ventilated area. The LLRPSF vent detector does isolate the LLRPSF ventilation system. However, the isolation function is not required by regulation but is provided as an engineering design conservatism.

In the event the control computer and/or control room display fail to function or are voluntarily taken out of service, each remote indication and control unit is designed to acquire data for up to 30 hours3.472222e-4 days <br />0.00833 hours <br />4.960317e-5 weeks <br />1.1415e-5 months <br />.

It is intended that each affected remote indication and control unit display be observed at least once I

per 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> (in which case the affected channel remains OPERABLE).

If an alarm trip setpoint is exceeded at the same time the control computer and/or control room display are neither functioning nor in g

service, alarm annunciation will still occur in the control room. In )

y the event the detector reading and the indication of exceeding the monitor setpnint are not provided at either the control room or the remote indication and control unit, then the affected channel is not OPERABLE and DAEC will either perform the appropriate ACTION or will provide an alternate monitoring system. This permits DAIC to retain the GE gaseous monitoring system as an alternate system for normal effluent monitoring when the Kaman system is temporarily inoperable.

When used as an alternate monitoring system, the GE system is subject to the requirements stated in Specifications 3.15.1 and 4.15.1 and to LLD requirements stated in' Table 4.15-2, Item C.
