Title | Unplanned Safety System Actuation and Contamination Event |
Event Description | On 12/06/2007 at 2042 [CST] C-337 unit 5 cell 5 was being charged and placed on stream and had just gone above atmospheric pressure. At 2044 hours0.0237 days <br />0.568 hours <br />0.00338 weeks <br />7.77742e-4 months <br /> two PGLD (process gas leak detection) heads in the C-337 unit 5 cell 5 actuated and would not clear indicating a potential UF6 release. To stop the release the cell was immediately taken back below atmospheric pressure. Investigation revealed that a UF6 release had occurred causing the PGLD actuation. The amount of material released has not yet been determined.
The PGLD heads are Q safety system components. At the time of the incident the cell was operating in a mode which required the system to be operational. This is being reported based on SAR 6.9 Table 1, J2 (unplanned actuation of a Q safety system) and 10 CFR 76.120 (c) (1) (i) (unplanned contamination event). The NRC Resident Inspector has been notified of this event. There was no release to the environment and no personnel contaminations reported. |
