1 INSTRUMENTATION BASES 3/4.3.3.8 ACCIDENT MONITORING INSTRUMENTATI0ti The OPERABILITY of the accident monitoring instrumentation ensures that sufficient information is available on selected plant parameters to monitor and assess these variables following an accident.

In the event more than four sensors in a reactor vessel level indicating system channel are inoperable, repairs may only be possible during the next refueling outage. This is because the sensors are accessible only after the missile shield is removed. If only one channel is inoperable, it shall be restored to OPERABLE status as soon as reasonably possible. If both channels are iroperable, at least one channel should be restored to OPERABLE status no later than by the end of the next refueling outage.

Vith the number of OPERABLE RVLIS channels less than the minimum channels required to be OPERABLE, the inoperable channels must be restored within 48 hours5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br /> or an alternate method of monitoring the reactor vessel level must be initiated. Monitoring pressurizer level and upperhead subcooling is an acceptable alternative to the RVLIS since the RVLIS is primarily used to detect the formation of a void in the reactor vessel head.

A channel check of the RVLIS is a comparison of each valid sensor with its corresponding rensor in the opposite train to verify they display the same state (i.e. covered or uncovered). If the corresponding sensor in the opposite train is invalid then the level at that location can be determined based upon the state of the next highest sensor, pressurizer level, and upperhead subcooling.

A channel calibration of the RVLIS involves the calibration of the digital to analog and analog to digital converters, the cold reference

" junction, and the power supplies.

3/4.3.3.9 FIRE DETECTION INSTRUMENTATION OPERABILITY of the fire detection instrumentation ensures that adequate warning capability is available for the prompt detection of fires. This capability is required in order to detect and locate fires in their early stages.

Prompt detection of fires vill reduce the potential for damage to safety related equipment and is an integral element in the overall facility fire protection program.

In the event that a portion of the fire detection instrumentation is inoperable, the establishment of frequent fire patrols in the affected areas is required to provide detection capability until the inoperable instrumentation is restored to OPERABILITY.

FARLEY-UNIT 2 B 3/4 3-4 Amendment No. 72

INSTRUMENTATION P' Pt 3/4.3.3.10 RADIOACTIVE LIQUID EFFLUENT INSTRUMENTATION The radioactive liquid effluent instrumentation is provided to monitor and control, as applicable, the releases of radioactive materials in liquid effluents during actual or potential releases of liquid effluents. The alarritrip setpoints for these instruments shall be calculated in accordance with the methods in the ODCM to ensure that the alarm / trip vill occur prior to exceeding the limits of 10 CFR Part 20. The OPERABILITY and use of this instrumentation is consistent with the requirements of General Design Criteria 60, 63 and 64 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50.

3/4.3.3.11 RADI0 ACTIVE CASEOUS EFFLUEIR INSTRUMENTATION The radioactive gaseous effluent instrumentation is provided to monitor and control, as applicable, the releases of radioactive materials in gaseous effluents during actual or potential releases of gaseous effluents. The alarm / trip setpoints for these instruments shall be calculated in accordance with the methods in the ODCM to ensure that the alarm / trip vill occur prior to exceeding the limits of 10 CFR Part 20. This instrumentation also includes provisions for monitoring (and controlling) the concentrations of potentially explosive gas mixtures in the vaste gas holdup system. The OPERABILITY and use of this instrumentation is consistent with the requirements of General Design Criteria 60, 63 and 64 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50.

'3 /4. 3. 4 TURBINE OVERSPEED PROTECTION This specification is provided to ensure that the turbine overspeed protection instrumentation and the turbine speed control valves are OPERABLE and vill protect the turbine from excessive overspeed.

Protection from turbine excessive overspeed is required since excessive overspeed of the turbine could generate potentially damaging missiles which could impact and damage safety related components, equipment or structures.

INSTRUMENTATION BASES 3/4.3.3.8 ACCIDENT MONITORING INSTRUMENTATION The OPERABILITY of the accident monitoring instrumentation ensures that sufficient information is available on selected plant parameters to monitor and assess these variables following an accident.

In the event more than four sensors in a reactor vessel level indicating system channel are inoperable, repairs may only be possible during the next refueling outage. This is because the sensors are accessible only after the missile shield is removed.

If only one channel is inoperable, it shall be restored to OPERABLE status as soon as reasonably possible.

If both channels are inoperable, at least one channel should be restored to OPERABLE status no later than by the end of the next refueling outage.

With the number of OPERABLE RVLIS channels less than the minimum channels required to be OPERABLE, the inoperable channels must be restored within 48 hours5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br /> or an alternate method of monitoring the reactor vessel level must be initiated. Monitoring pressurizer level and upperhead subcooling is an acceptable alternative to the RVLIS since the RVLIS is primarily used to detect the formation of a void in the reactor vessel head.

A channel check of the RVLIS is a comparison of each valid sensor with its corresponding sensor in the opposite train to verify they display the same state (i.e. covered or uncovered).

If the corresponding sensor in the opposite train is invalid then the level at that location can be determined based upon the state of the next highest sencor, pressurizer level, and upperhead subcooling.

A channel calibration of the RVLIS involves the calibration of the digital to analog and analog to digital converters, the cold reference

-junction, and the power supplies.

3/4.3.3.9 FIRE DETECTION INSTRUMENTATION OPERABILITY of the fire detection instrumentation ensures that adequate varning capability is available for the prompt detection of fires. This capability is required in order to detect and locate fires in their early stages.

Prompt detection of fires vill reduce the potential for damage to safety related equipment and is an integral element in the overall facility fire protection program.

1 In the event that a portion of the fire detection instrumentation is inoperable, the establishment of frequent fire patrols in the affected areas is required to provide detection capability until the inoperable instrumentation is restored to OPERABILITY.

I INSTRUMENTATION BASES 3/4.3.3.10 RADIOACTIVE LIQUID EFFLUENT INSTRUMElfrATION The radioactive liquid effluent instrumentation is provided to monitor and control, as applicable, the releases of radioactive materials in liquid effluents during actual or potential releases of liquid effluents. The alarm / trip setpoints for these instruments shall be calculated in accordance with the methods in the ODCM to ensure that the alarm / trip will occur prior to exceeding the limits of 10 CFR Part 20. The OPERABILITY and use of this instrumentation is consistent with the requirements of General Design Criteria 60, 63 and 64 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50.

3/4.3.3.11 RADIOACTIVE GASEOUS EFFLUENT INSTRUMENTATION The radioactive gaseous effluent instrumentation is provided to monitor and control, as applicable, the releases of radioactive materials in gaseous effluents during actual or potential releases of gaseous effluents. The alarm / trip setpoints for these instruments shall be calculated in accordance with the methods in the ODCM to ensure that the alarm / trip vill occur prior to exceeding the limits of 10 CFR Part 20.'

This instrumentation also includes provisions for monitoring (and controlling) the concentrations of potentially explosive gas mixtures in the vasta gas holdup system. The OPERABILITY and use of this instrumentation is consistent with the requirements of General Design Criteria 60, 63 and 64 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50.

3/4.3.4 TURBINE OVERSPEED FROTECTION This specification is provided to ensure that the turbine overspeed protection instrumentation and the turbine speed control valves are OPERABLE and vill protect the turbine from excessive overspeed. Protection from turbine excessive overspeed is required since excessive overspeed of the turbine could generate potentially damaging missiles which could impact and damage safety related components, e,2ipment or structures.
