The isolators are Commercial Grade Items dedicated by Duke. Failure analysis, conducted by the manufacturer, determined that a manufacturing defect with the isolator capacitor will cause the output voltage to drop when the isolator is not energized and there is a very light load on the output. The subject digital optical isolators are Model 175C180, manufactured by E-max Instruments (also known as Electro-Max) 13 Inverness Way, South Englewood, CO.80112. These digital optical isolators could be utilized in a variety of applications at Duke's McGuire and Catawba nuclear stations. There are no known applications for these digital optical isolators at Oconee. )

Initial Safety Significance: None. Defective digital optical isolators were never installed. Duke protocols require the conduct of a pre-installation bench test and a post installation test to assure these isolators perform satisfactorily in service. E-max Instruments has issued a Model 175C180 recall for all uninstalled isolators. Duke has returned all uninstalled digital optical isolators to the supplier. Duke is the only known nuclear utility purchasing E-max Instruments Model 175C180 digital optical isolators.
