SUBJECT:

10CFR Part 21 Notification of Deviation ITT Engineered Valves ASME Section III Air Operated Diaphragm Valves PROJECT (S):

Gentlemen:

As a follow-up to our previous communication (Attachment "C") and as a result of recent discussions with the NRC Office of Inspection and Enforcement, it was determined that this notice be additionally made.

The Air-Motor Operated diaphragm valves with extended structures as supplied to the referenced project (s) by ITT Engineered Valves (formerly Dia-Flo Division of ITT Grinnell Valve Co., Inc.) have been determined by test to have natural frequencies less than 33 Hertz. The results of the tests performed during 1983-1984 at ITT Grinnell facilities will be forwarded to you under separate cover. A listing of the configuration supplied is listed in Attachment "B".

The original design requirement for the subject valves as defined in the purchase specification was that the extended structures have natural frequencies equal to or greater than 33 Hertz, as demonstrated by static analysis or test.

The natural frequency of these extended structures when delivered was demonstrated by analysis, in keeping with the contract, to be equal to or greater than 33 Hertz. Subsequent information obtained by test disclosed that the natural frequency of these extended structures is less than 33 Hertz.

Due to the implication of response amplification resulting from natural frequencies below 33 Hertz, ITT Grinnell initiated an extensive test program which included fragility testing. The results of this test program demonstrated that there were no detrimental effects on valve operability until equivalent acceleration levels significantly in excess of contract specified levels were reached. Attachm?nt "A" provides a summary of those results.

October 10, 1986 Page Two In addition to valve considerations, the recent discussions indicate that the piping systems containing these valves and the associated piping supports may be affected by the change in frequency. Therefore, from a systems point of view, an evaluation of the methods utilized and of the potential impact on a piping system may be required. The test reports now being prepared for mailing to you include modal analysis results and mathematical models which may be helpful in your evaluation.

Excluded from this notification are situations where external supports on valve extended structures are utilized or to valves being utilized in non-safety related services.

For further information, please contact Mr. E. C. Broome at (717) 291-1901.

The results of this test program demonstrated that there was no detrimental effect on valve operability until equivalent acceleration levels significantly in excess of contract specified levels were reached.

safety problem related to valve functionality exists. Based on this testing, Grinne We would be pleased to provide you with copics of our seismic qualification test reports.

We believe that our test reports contain sufficient for you to evaluate our findings relative to our equipment requirements information If we can be of any further assistsance, please contact us at your co v n enience.
