Gentlemen, This letter is to notify the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission of a potential component defect.

The ITT Conoflow models GT25CA1826 and GT25CD1826 current to pressure (l/P) transducers produce a calibrated 3.0 to 15.0 *psi output pressure from a 4.0 to 20.0 mA DC (input) signal.

On November 2, 2016 a discovery was made of unqualified electrical component substitutions on the internal circuit board. Supplier and internal record reviews indicate these unqualified components were used as early as May 10, 2013, as the previously qualified PCB components are no longer available.

• Environmental qualification of the suspect Gil"Guit boards is planned for early 2017. lf any component falls to meet requirements, nuclear facilities whiGh use this product will be advised to examine their product for

• unqualified printed circuit boards via notification and visual references. Qualified replacement Gom)Jonents will be provided to all affected customers.

The following table (page 2 of this notification) is a list of customers, and the specific l/P transducer part numbers procured from ITT since May 10, 2013. These customers will be notified by January 13, 2017.
