Ii11'l ! caused a loss of trickle flow to the transmitter reference leg which resulted in the l
l1 l2l l erroneous level indication. The valve was cycled to remsve the blockage and trickle ;
l 1131 l flow was reestablished to the transmitter. The transmitter was then recalibrated l

LER ATTACH!iENT - RO #2-81-71 Facility: BSEP Unit No. 2 Event Date: 7/29/81 As a result of an event inv,alving this instrument on Unit No. 1, reported in LER 1-81-07 and a post-TMI requirement, a plant modification package (1-80-78 for Unit No. 1 and 2-80-99 for Unit No. 2) has been developed. This modification will install a condensing pot in the reference leg in order to increase the accuracy and reliability of this instrument, and remove the requirement to have flow in the reference leg to ensure that it is full.
