Subject:
PEACH BOTTOM UNIT 2 SCRAM Peach Bottom Unit 2 auto scrammed from about 20% power at 7:22 a.m. on May 19, 1989.
The scram occurred when the reactor operator was shifting feedwater level control system from single element to three element control. This action caused the operating reactor feed pump to increase speed. The increased feed water flow resulted in a
, reactor high level water trip of the feed pump at plus 45 inches. Reactor level then
' decreased to the automatic scram and containment isolation setpoint of 0 inches.
Before .a feed pump could be returned to service, the water level continued to decrease to about minus 45 inches. The alternate rod insertion system actuated and both reactor recirculation pumps tripped. The high p essure coolant injection and reactor core isolation cooling systems did not automatically initiate. These safety systems all actuate at a reactor level of minus 48 inches; however, the logic uses different analog trip devices. The licensee recovered water level with the feed pump, reset the scram and containment isolations, and made an ENS call at 8:16 a.m. The licensee is
' investigating the root cause of the scram and reviewing the safety system initiation logic and set points. The Unit is currently in hot shutdown. The NRC restart staff
-continues to provide 24 hour2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> coverage of licensee activities. The day shift NRC l inspector was in the control room at the time of the scram.
