LASALLE COUNTY STATION, UNITS 1 AND 2 RESPONSE TO IE BULLETIN NO. 86-02 STATIC-O-RING DIFFERENTIAL PRESSURE SWITCHES,

1. SOR DIFFERENTIAL PRESSURE SWITCHES INSTALLED AT LASALLE SOR series 102 and 103 differential pressure (DP) switches are installed on both units at LaSalle. During the spring 1985 outage on Unit 2, 59 SOR DP switches were installed as part of an environmental qualification modification to replace the original switches. On Unit 1, 58 SOR DP switches were installed during the first refueling outage in the first two quarters of 1986.

These switches are used in the following applications:

No. of Switches Unit 1 Unit 2 Application 22 23 Reactor Water Level 1,2,3, and 8 8 8 ECCS Minimum Flow 16 16 Main Steam Line High Flow Isolation 8 8 RCIC/RHR High Steam Line Flow Isolation 4 4 RHR Shutdown Cooling Line High Flow Isolation Table 1 contains a complete list of the SOR DP switches installed on both Units at LaSalle.

2. Operator Training All licensed shift personnel have been trained on the June 1 event at LaSalle Unit 2 with regards to the SOR DP switches. This training included a discussion of where the switches are installed, their functions, and their setpoints. The " Conduct of Operations" requirement to monitor plant instrumentation and initiate manual action if a nominal 4

Tech. Spec. setpoint is exceeded and the required automatic action does not occur was also re-emphasized.

i

! 3. Special Testing of SOR DP Switches l LaSalle has performed special testing on the Unit 1 and 2 switches to

characterize the setpoint variability. These setpoint characterization tests measured the shift in setpoints due to the increase in static pressure from calibration to operation, the effects of cycling the switch during calibration, and the repeatability of the switches.

The setpoint characterization program consists of a static pressure i cycling test and a 24-hour static pressure test. This testing program is

described in detail in Reference 2.

DOCUMENT ID 41181/1266W l

p.

on Unit 2, the static pressure cycling test was performed on all switches except for a few ECCS minimum flow switches. The performance of these switches was verified during BCCS system operation. On Unit 1, the static pressure cycling test was performed on all switches.

Por Unit 2 the 24-hour static pressure test was performed on a representative sample (more than half) of switches, whereas on Unit 1 every switch (except a few BCCS switches as described above) was tested.

Switches in every application were tested. The size of the Unit 2 sample was based on a comparison of the amount of existing margin between the desired setpoint and Tech. Spec. limit to the adjustable range of the switch. In applications where the existing margin was very small with respect to the adjustable range of the switch (reactor water level 3, reactor water level 8, and main steam line high flow switches), every switch in the Unit 2 (and Unit 1) application underwent the 24 hour2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> static pressure test.

From the early test results on Unit 2, it was observed that the switches with the largest repeatability error also exhibited the largest static shift error. Unit 2 switches with the largest repeatability errors were then selected to be tested at static pressure over 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />. Therefore, the test results on this sample bounded all of the switches for that application, and performance of the 44 hour5.092593e-4 days <br />0.0122 hours <br />7.275132e-5 weeks <br />1.6742e-5 months <br /> static pressure test on all Unit 2 switches was not necessary for determining new setpoints for that application. Table 2 provides the sample size tested in each switch application.

As stated above, the test program on Unit I was more comprehensive in that in every application except the BCCS minimum flow valves, 100% of the switches underwent both repeatability (static pressure cycling) ar.d static offset (time-pressure " soak") testing. Five of the eight ECCS minimum flow valve switches were not tested for static offset because the switch setpoint chosen allowed much more margin than the static offset measured from the three identical switches tested required.

A series of static pressure tests conducted over various time intervals up to 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> demonstrated that 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> was sufficient to observe the full static pressure shift in the setpoint. In these series of tests, four switches were tested at static pressures longer than 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />, and their setpoints changed very little after 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />. References 2 and 3 contain this test data. This time period has also been verified by a long-term testing program at SOR on model 103AS-B212 DP switches. Their test data shows that the switch setpoints shift by 0.6 inches W.C. or less between 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> and 2 weeks. This data is contained in reference 4.

The setpoint variance for all SOR switches has been fully characterized prior to resuming operation. Because of this program and the augmented surveillance program described in Table 4, additional special tests are not anticipated.

4. Test Results/ Failures All of the testing has been completed on both Unit 1 and Unit 2 switches.

The test results are summarized in Table 2. These test results show that some of the SOR DP switches would not have met their Tech. Spec.

requirements under normal operating conditions at their existing setpoints. However, based on a GE analysis, all of the switches except-for one switch on Unit 2 would have tripped within analytical limits (see Reference 2).

Per reference 1 LaSalle station has submitted a report (LER 86-011-00) in accordance with 10 CFR 50.73 which addresses the June 1, 1986, event on Unit 2. A supplemental report for Unit 2 was submitted, (Reference 2) on completion of the testing. On Unit 1, a final report was submitted as shown in Reference 6.

5. Interim Performance Monitoring Program Since corrective actions will be taken prior to unit startup, an interim performance monitoring program was not developed. The corrective actions that will be taken are described in the next section. Note that when 100%

of the dp switches on Unit I were tested, it was found that for some applications the worst case static offset and repeatabilities were found to be smaller than allowed for in the determination of the Unit 2 setpoints. The initial settings for the Unit 1 switches use the Unit 2 values, however, in the future these values may be changed to take advantage of the more complete test data.

6. Description of Corrective Actions i On the basis of the setpoint characterization tests, the setpoints of the differential pressure switches will be revised prior to startup to provide l additional margin for static pressure shift and repeatability. The revised setpoints and margins are listed in Table 3. These revisions will

insure that the SOR DP switches will meet their Technical Specification j requirements. Switches that do not meet the static shift and i repeatability acceptance limits given in Table 3 will be replaced. New i

switches will be tested to verify that they meet these limits.

i To provide additional assurances that the switches will function properly, j

the ECCS minimum flow switches have been tested at their new setpoints j during system operation, and reactor water level drop tests have been j performed on Unit 2 at pressures of 0.0, 950, and 500 psig to verify the level 3 switch setpoints. These level drop tests were performed during startup of Unit 2 following the recently completed outage and the 950 psig

j. test will also be conducted during shutdown for the next refueling outage. On Unit 1, a 0.0 psig level drop test will be conducted to verify system operability prior to start-up. The calibration procedures will 1

also be revised to require the instrument maintenance technician to record

the first actuation as the "as-found" and to eliminate the effects of cycling. Instead of cycling the switch between its trip and reset points, all actuations will be obtained by cycling from either zero or full-scale DP to simulate actual operating conditions. The procedures will also

! contain " action" and " rejection" limits. If a switch setpoint exceeds its I action but not its rejection limit, its surveillance frequency will be adjusted as described in table 4. If its setpoint exceeds the rejection c an es, the switch wkTf be re Ia$ek as he!chiOSd Yn Ta0$e y{ e su e DOCUMENT ID 41 81/1266W

r- ,

1 After startup, a quarterly surveillance frequency will be established on these switches. In addition, the Unit 2 level 3 switches will be calibrated at 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 2 months, and 4 months before they are put on a quarterly cycles. For Unit 1, an augmented surveillance frequency will also be implemented for level 3. (Refer to Table 4 for Unit I attached)

A complete description of the corrective actions that will be taken can be found in Table 4 and in Reference 5.

4) For applications other than main steam line high flow, repeatability for each switch tested was less than 2% .

of range; therefore 2% was used for repeatability. For mainsteam line high flow switches, repeatability of the most variable switch in service was used. Repeatability was calculated for each switch to bour.d 95% of the population with a 95% confidence level.

5) It is planned to improve these values in the future by replacement of the worst performing switches with switches that have better repeatability and static offset performance.

6) Since 100% of the switches were tested on Unit 1, the static offset and repeatabilities are known for every switch. This allows a knowledgeable setting of the.swit h which is not dependent on a bounding margin established for Unit 2 switches. The values shown in this olumn represent Unit 2 setpoints. Unit I values could be made less conservative than these since more data is available.

a. Level 3 switches (6 switches) - Based on the successful two-week calibration performed on the Unit 2 Level 3 switches, in which all six switches were found to be within 1 0.6" W.C. of their initial settings, the surveillance cycle will be initially supplemented with more frequent inspections, as follows: Two of the four SCRAM switches (one in each channel) will be surveilled after one month. The other two SCRAM switches will be surveilled after the second month. The two ADS permissive switches will be surveilled after the third month. Dependent on satisfactory results from these surveillances, the switches will then be surveilled on a quarterly basis.
