The APRM rod block function is flow biased and prevents a significan* reduction in !!CPR, especially during operation at reduced flow. The APRM provides gross core protection; i.e.,
limits the gross core power increase fron wi;hdrawal of control rods in the normal withdrawal sequences. The trips are set so that MCPR is maintained greater than the fuel cladding integrity safety limit.
The RBM rod block function provides local protection of the core; i.e., the prevention of boiling transition.in the local region of the core, for a single rod withdrawal error from a limiting control , rod pattern.' ;
The IRM rod block function provides local as well as gross core !
I protection. The scaling arrangement is such that trip setting is (
,
less than a factor of 10 above the indicated level.
t A downscale indication on an APRM or IRM is an indication the ;
instrument han failed or the instrument is not sensitive enough. i in either case the instrument will not respond to changes in the '
control' rod motion and thus, control rod motion is prevented.
The downscale trips are set at 2.5 indicated on scale.
'
The flow comparator components have only one logic channel and are not required for safety. The flow comparator must be
bypassed when operating with one recirculation water pump. 3 f
The refueling interlocks also operate one logic channel, and are [
' required for safety only when the mode switch is in the refueling position. l

3.3'&'4.3 BASES (Cont'd) identified as.thelresistance to drive motion by an* internal centrol rod drive filter. The filter had been loaded by foreign
'
material, probably accelerated by construction debris. The sudden changes ~in_ drive scram' performance which were observed at that plant were_due to stepwise release into-reactor coolant of
-
9 particulate matter as the reactor.and subsystem were subsequently started'up. The design of the present. control rod drive (Model i 7RDB144B) is grossly improved-by the relocation of the filter to-
'
a location out of the scram drive path; i . e., it can no longer interfere with scram performance, even if completely blocked.
The degraded performance of the original drive (CRD7RDB144A)
~
under dirty operating conditions and the insensitivity of the redesigned drive (CRD7RDB144B) has been demonstrated by a series of engineering tests under simulated reactor operating
.
conditiens. The successful performance of the new-drive under actual operating' conditions has also_been demonstrated by consistently ~ good in-service test results for plants using the
.
i i
new drive and may be inferred from plants using the older model !
drive with a modified (larger screen size) internal filter which is less prone-to plugging. Data has been documented by -
4 surveillance reports in various operating plants. These include ,
t i
Oyster Creek, Monticello, Dresden 2 and Dresden 3. Dresden 2 has currently 27 "B" type drives. Approximately 4718 drive tests ,
,
have been recorded to date. Data documenting t~ne successful i parformance of the modified drive has been submitted to the NRC t
!
with a letter from Commonwealth Edison Company to the Commission
'
dated November 6, 1972 with the subject of the letter being Proposed. Changes to Quad-Cities. Power Station Operating License, including Appendices A and B, DPR'29 and 30, AEC Dkts 50-254 and 50-265. ,
Although the cause and cure of the dirt problem were known at the I time of the writing of the~Dresden 3. Tech Specs, the progressive f
- surveillance requirement was. incorporated into.the technical i specification to ostensibly detect any other unforeseen drive
