1.0 INTRODUCTION

The Perry Nuclear Power Plant ASME Inservice Testing Program for Pumps and Valves will be in effect through the first 120 month inspection period and will be updated in accordance with the requirements of 10 2R 50.55a(g).

This document outlines the inservice testing (IST) program based on the requirements of Section XI of the ASME Boiler & Pressure Vessel Code, 1983 Edition through the Summer 1983 Addenda. All references to IWP or IWV, respectively, of ASME Section XI, reflect the 1983 Edition through the Summer 1983 Addenda, unless otherwise noted.

The inservice inspection (ISI) classification boundaries are identical to the design classification or quality group boundaries shown on the plant piping and instrument diagrams (P& ids). Some pumps and valves within the ISI boundaries are identified as non-classed (NC). This IST program was developed using the ISI classification boundaries and the following documents:

Title 10, Code of Federal R<egulations, Part 50, Paragraph 50.55a(g).

NRC Regulatory Guides Division 1.

1 Sta dard Review Plan 3.9.6, " Inservice Testing of Pumps and Valves.:

Division 1 (draft) Regulatory Guide and Valve / Impact Statement,

( " Identification of Valves for Inclusion in Inservice Test Programs."

"NRC Staff Guidance for Preparing Pump and Valve Testing Programs and Associated Relief Request," November, 1981.

Final Safety Analysis Report, Perry Nuclear Power Plant.:

Technical Specifications, Perry Nuclear Power Plant.

The inservice tests identified in this program will verify the operation-al readiness of pumps and valves whose functions are required to mitigate the consequences of an accident or to bring the reactor to a cold shut-down condition or maintain the reactor in a safe shutdown condition.

Lubricant temperature, when

( measured after passing through the bearing, and prior to entering a cooler, shall be considered the bearing temperature.

Basis for Relief:

(a) Some of the pumps addressed in this relief request are cooled by their respective process fluid, " Main Flow Path." Thus, bearing temperature measurements would be highly dependent on I

the temperature of the cooling medium.

(b) Pump bearing temperature is taken at (1) one-year intervals, only, which provides very little data toward determining the incremental degradation of a bearing, nor does it provide any meaningful trend data.

(c) Except for: the Emergency Service Water Pumps IP45-C001A, B and C002; the Residual Heat Removal Pumps 1E12-C002A, IE12-C002B and 1E12-C002C; the Low Pressure Core Spray Pump IE21-C001; the High Pressure Core Spray Pump 1E22-C001; the ESW Screen Wash Pumps P49-C002A and P49-C002B which are submerged under water, all pumps addressed in this relief request will be subject to vibration measurements per subsection IWP-4500. Vibration measurements (displacement and velocity) are a significantly more reliable indication of pump bearing degradation than that of temperature measurements.

, , Basis for Relief: Test acceptance criteria is contained within the test 4

( procedures, and the initial approval of equipment opera-bility is by on-shift personnel. The analysis of results for degradation requiring increased testing or engineering evaluation will then occur when the appropriate personnel are available for reviewing the inservice pump test data.

The appropriate personnel are not always readily available for this review effort.

PR-3 System: Standby I.iquid Control System Pumps: IC41-C001A and 1C41-C001B ,

Class: 2 Function: Provides a method of shutting down the reactor without use of the control rods.

Test Requirements: IWP-3300; Scope of Test - measurement and observation of inlet pressure (PI) and differential pressure (Pd) across the pumps.

IWP-4520(b); Instruments to Measure Amplitude - The frequency response range of the readout system shall be from one-half minimum speed to at least maximum pump shaft rotational speed.

Basis for Relief: The standby liquid control pumps are required to supply the necessary flow rate at a given system pressure. The inlet pressure (no installed test equipment) is equivalent to the static head provided by the test tank. Test tank level is established within the inservice test procedures.

( Also, the measurement of inlet pressure on a positive displacement pump is not a significant test parameter.

The system resistance is varied to establish the measured and observed discharge pressure as the reference value.

Flow rate is measured, observed and monitored to verify pump operability and degradation. y The SLC pumps are positive displacement with a shaft rotational speed of 360 revolutions per minute (RPM). The amplitude frequency response range is 180 RPM which corresponds to a frequency of 3 cycles per second (cps).

The International Research and Development (IRD) vibration instrument is calibrated to 5 cps even though it measures the entire frequency spectrum. The calibrated frequency l

range adequately covers pump induced inputs.

Alternate Testing: Utilize pump discharge pressure reading in lieu of pump differential pressure reading and verify test tank level to ensure adequate suction pressure. The IRD equipment shall only require calibration to as low as practical (approximately 5 cps).

PR-4 System: Waterleg Fill Pumps (RHR, LPCS, HPCS, and RCIC) t f

Pumps: lE12-C003, IE21-C002, IE22-C003, and IE51-C003 .,

Class: 2 <

Function: Waterleg pumps maintain the discharge piping of safety-related systems full to expedite flow during initiation, and to minimize the likelihood of system damage due to water hammer.

Test Requirements: IWP-3100; Inservice Test Procedure - measure, record, and compare inlet (suction) pressure Pi.

IWP-3300; Scope of Test - measurement and observation of inlet (suction) pressure Pi stopped.

p IWP-4600; Flow measurement (Accuracy), IWP-3230 (a) corrective action (alert range), and IWP-3230(b) corrective action (action range).

Basis for Relief: The securing of waterleg pumps (RHR, LPCS, HPCS and RCIC) to measure the suction pressure stopped would serve no

[ '

useful purpose, since an adequate net positive suction head (NPSH) is verified by proper suppression pool or condensate storage tank level. These levels are maintained per Technical Specification requirements. r Also, securing these pumps will require filling and venting the safety-related system increasing the duration that the system is in a non-standby readiness mode.

The starting of the.waterleg pumps has shown no deviation in running or stopped pressure for RRR,,LPCS and HPCS.

The waterleg pumps have a capacity of 40 gym and a minimum flow design requirement of 10 gpm. Flow rate shall be measured with survey flowmeter (approximately iS%

accuracy). The pump can meet the design function with as much as 75% degradation. Therefore, relief from accuracy requirements and alert / action ranges adequately allows assessment of pump operability.

Test Requirements: IWP-4120; Range - the full-scale range of each instrument shall be three times the reference values or less.

Basis for Relief: The instrumentation (IRD) used to measure vibration

(~- amplitude has a range selector with multiples of .03, .1,

.3, 1, 3 and others for full-scale readings. When measuring reference values that fall between 0.031 to 0.033, 0.31 to 0.33, and 3.1 to 3.3, the full-scale range requirement can not be met. The minimal portion of scale usage,which does not comply, does not degrade monitoring of pump operational readiness. The scale indication is close enough to meeting three times or less to provide an accurate vibration reading.

Alternate Testing: The small range of reference values identified shall be measured on the appropriate scale.

Also, in a recent study (BWR Owners Group Evaluation NUREG-0737, Item II.K.3.16) the number of ADS and safety relief valve openings should be reduced as much as possible to minimize LOCA risk. The design of PNPP provides divisional separation of the solenoid valves for each Safety Relief Valve (SRV) such that SRV exercise would only exercise one of the two solenoid valves. Based on this study, and the potential for causing a LOCA condition, exercising these valves is delayed to refueling.

Alternate Testing: Exercising, stroke time, fail safe and position indication testing shall be accomplished on an alternating refueling outage basis as identified in PNPP Technical Specifications.

Category: AC Class: 2 Function: To provide inboard containment isolation.

Test Requirements: IWV-3251; Test Frequency - Exercise at least once every three (3) months, quarterly.

Basis for Relief: This check valve provides containment isolation and allows a flow path from the SBLC transfer tank to the SBLC tank.

The SBLC tank is maintained in a constant state of readi-ness during plant operations. Testing the check valve requires draining borated solution from the SBLC tank while providing demineralized makeup water, thus reducing the system readiness condition.

Alternate Testing: Transferring water during refueling shall provide forward

( flow exercising when plant operational mode allows the SBLC system to be inoperable.

Test Requirements: IWV-3424, Seat Leakage measurement a) measuring leakage through a downstream tell tale connection or b) by measuring the feed rate required to maintain pressure.

IWV-3426, Analysis of Leakage Rates. Leakage rate measurements shall be compared with previous measurements and with the permissible leakage rates specified by the owner for a specific valve.

IWV-3427, Corrective Action. Action for exceeding specified leakage rates.

Basis for Relief: These valves have been identified as Category "A" valves, k to address the concerns of IEN 85-72 involving failures of SDV Vent and Drain valves. The design of the Perry Nuclear Power Plant Unit i ensures: 1) integrity of the primary containment by venting to the drywell and draining to the suppression pool and 2) minimizing the potential of inadvertent isolation of the scram discharge volume.

These design considerations prohibit measuring seat leakage in accordance with Subsection IWV.

Alternate Testing: Identify seat leakage by external measurement (e.g., Sonic Flow Detector) at least once every two (2) years to commence during the first refueling outage.
