i RANCHO SECO UNIT 1 TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS Limiting Conditions for Operation Bases A reactor coolant pump or decay heat removal pump is required to be in operation before the boron concentration is reduced by dilution with makeup water. Either pump will provide mixing which will prevent sudden positive reactivity changes caused by dilute coolant reaching the reactor. One decay heat removal pump will circulate the equivalent of the reactor coolant system volume in one half hour or less.

(1)

The decay heat removal system suction piping is designed for 300 F and 300 psig; thus, the system can remove decay heat when the reactor coolant system is below this temperature.

(2) (3)

One Pressurizer code safety valve is capable of preventing overpressurization when the reactor is not critical since its relieving capacity is greater than that required by the sum of the available heat sources which are pump energy, pressurizer heaters, and reactor decay heat.

(4) Both Pressurizer code safety valves are required to be in service prior to criticality to conform to the system design relief capabilities. The code safety valves prevent overpressure for rod withdrawal accidents.

(5) The Pressurizer code safety valve lift set point shall be set at 2500 psig

  • 1 percent allowance for error and each valve shall be capable of relieving 345,000 lb/hr of saturated steam at a pressure not greater than 3 percent above the set pressure.

The electromatic relief valve setpoint was established to prevent operation of the Safety Valves during transients.

Two pump operation is limited until further ECCS analysis is performed.

152> When the reactor is not critical but TAV is above 280* F, one steam generator provides sufficient heat removal capability for removing decay heat. However, single failure considerations require that both steam generators be operable.

When TAV is below 280*F, a single reactor coolant loop or DHR loop provides sufficient heat removal capability for removing decay heat; but single failure considerations require at least two loops be OPERABLE. Thus, if the reactor coolant loops are not OPERABLE, this specification requires two DHR loops to be OPERABLE.

The purpose of the high point vents is to vent noncondensible gases from the RCS which may inhibit core cooling during natural circulation.

In compliance with 10CFR50 Appendix R the power to all the valve actuators in the vent path has been removed.

decay heat removal and cooldown above 280 F.

Main feedwater is supplied by operation of a condensate pump and main feedwater pump.

If neither main feed pump is available, feedwater can be supplied to the steam generators by an auxiliary feedwater pump. Steam relief would be through the turbine bypass system to the condenser, if available, or through the system's atmospheric relief valves.

l The auxiliary feedwater system is designed to provide sufficient flow on loss of main feedwater to match decay heat plus Reactor Coolant Pump heat input to the Reactor Coolant System before solid pressurizer operation could occur.(4)

The 250,000 gallcus of water in the condensate storage tank is sufficient to remove decay heat (plus Reactor Coolant pump heat for two pumps) for approximately 13 hours1.50463e-4 days <br />0.00361 hours <br />2.149471e-5 weeks <br />4.9465e-6 months <br />.

If both SGs are above 600 psig, supply AFW to both SGs If one SG is below 600 psig, supply AFW to the other SG If both SGs are below 600 psig but the pressure difference between the two SGs exceeds 100 psig, supply AFW only to the SG with the higher pressure If both SGs are below 600 psig and the pressure difference is less than 100 psig, supply AFW to both SGs At cold shutdown conditions all EFIC initiate and isolate functions are manually or automatically bypassed. When pressure in both steam generators is greater than 750 psig, the following bypassed initiation signals will have been automatically reset:

1) Loss of 4 RC pumps, 2) low steam generator pressure, 3) low steam generator level.

Proposed Amendment No. 152 3-26

t RANCHO SECO UNIT 1 TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS Limiting Conditions for Operation 152 Since the EFIC receives signals from the RPS it is important that only corresponding channels be placed in " maintenance bypass." If a channel of RPS is in maintenance bypass, only the corresponding channel of EFIC can be bypassed. An interlock feature also prevents bypassing more than one EFIC channel at a time. These interlocking features allow the EFIC system to take a single failure in addition to having one channel in maintenance bypass.

Various RPS test features can inhibit initiate signals to the EFIC system and degrade the EFIC system below acceptable limits if the RPS channel is not in bypass. Therefore, no testing should be performed on a RPS instrument string which supplies an output to EFIC without placing that RPS channel in bypass.

The EFIC system is designed to allow testing during power operation. The EFIC system can be tested from its input terminals to the actuated device controllers without placing the channel in key locked " maintenance bypass."

A test of the EFIC trip logic will actuate one of two relays in the controllers. The two relays are tested individually to prevent automatic actuation of the component.

Each EFIC channel key operated maintenance bypass switch is provided with alarm and lights to indicate when the maintenance bypass switch is being used.

4 The source range and intermediate range nuclear flux instrumentatiop0*## "

overlap by one decade. This decade overlap will be achieved at 10-amps on the intermediate range scale.

Power is normally supplied to the control rod drive mechanisms from two separate parallel 480 volt sources. Redundant trip devices are employed in each of these sources.

If any one of these trip devices fails in the untripped state on-line repairs to the failed device, when practical, will be made, and the remaining trip devices will be tested. Eight hours is aaple time to test the remaining trip devices and in many cases make on-line repai rs.

Objective To verify that the auxiliary feedwater pump and associated valves are operable.

Specification 4.8.1 Monthly on a staggered test basis at a time when the average reactor coolant system temperature is >305*F, the turbine / motor driven and motor driven auxiliary feedwater pumps shall be operated on recirculation to the condenser to verify proper operation.

Separate tests will be performed in order to verify the turbine driven capability and the motor driven capability of auxiliary feedwater pump P-318.

The monthly test frequency requirement shall be brought current within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> after the average reactor coolant system temperature is >305'F for the motor driven puups.

Acceptable performance will be indicated if the pump starts and operates for fifteen minutes at a flow rate of greater than or equal to 760 gpm at a discharge pressure sufficient to drive that flow through the most restrictive flow path to a single steam generator which is at a pressure of 1050 psig.

4.8.2 At least once per 18 months:

1.

Verify that each automatic valve in the flow path actuates to its correct position upon receipt of each auxiliary feedwater actuation test signal.

2.

Verify that each auxiliary feedwater pump starts as designed automatically upon receipt of each auxiliary feedwater actuation test signal.

4.8.3 All valves, including those that are locked, sealed, or otherwise secured in position, are to be inspected monthly to verify they are in the proper position.

i Proposed Amendment No. 152 4-39

RANCHO SECO UNIT 1 TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS Surveillance Standards 4.8.4 Prior to startup following a refueling shutdown or any cold shutdown of longer than 30 days duration, conduct a test to demonstrate that the motor-driven AFW pumps can pump water from the CST to the steam generator.

152><

Bases The monthly test frequency will be sufficient to verify that the turbine / motor driven and motor driven auxiliary feedwater pumps are operable. Verification of correct operation will be made both from the control room instrumentation and direct visual observation of the pumps.

The OPERABILITY of the auxiliary feedwater system ensures that the Reactor Coolant System can be cooled down to less than 305*F from normal operating conditions in the event of a total loss of off-site power.

The electric driven auxiliary feedwater pu:aps are capable of delivering a 152> total feedwater flow of 760 gpm at a pressure of 1050 psig to the entrance of the steam generators. The steam driven auxiliary feedwater pump is capable of delivering a total feedwater flow of 760 gpm to the entrance of the steam generators over the steam generator operating range of 800 psig to 1050 psig.

This capacity is utilized as analytical input to the Loss of Hain Feedwater Analysis which is the design basis event for AFW flow requirements.
