2450 Mheatsheaf Lane P909 BOX 5997 Philadelphia, PA 19137 XV9 NATURE OP DEFECT/SAFETY HASARD A9 DEFEcT: crack-like indications were found in a 3" Monel 400 tee fitting during fabrication of a replacement spool section for Intake Cooling Mater (ICÃ) piping for St. Lucia Unit 1. On January 30, 1992, the FPL Nuclear Division Metallurgical Laboratory concluded that the material of the forged tee did not meet mechanical recpxirements of the ASIDE SB564 specification to which the material was certified, nor did it compare to t'e results reported on the Certified Material Test Report provided by the supplier. Actual test results on the tee indicate that the tensile strength and elongation did not meet ASME Section II, Part B material specification SB564 requirements. Improper heat treatment during the forging process is believed to be the principal cause of the defect.
B. SAFETY HAZARD: The tee fitting was to have been installed in the safety>>related Quality Group C ICW System as part of the ICW pump Lube Water System. A postulated non-ductile failure of the tee combined with failure of a redundant XCW train, under accident conditions, could have resulted in loss of the ultimate heat. sink. As described in VI below, no tees of this heat were installed in either unit.
