- The < 1.3 E5 cps Allowable Value applies to the Westinghouse-supplied boron triflouride (BF3) Source Range neutron detectors. The BF3 neutron detectors are being replaced with Thermo Scientific-supplied fission chamber neutron detectors. The < 1.44 E5 cps Allowable Value applies to the replacement fission chamber Source Range neutron detectors.

(a) With Reactor Trip Breakers (RTBs) closed and Rod Control System capable of rod withdrawal.

(d) Below the P-6 (Intermediate Range Neutron Flux) interlocks.

(e) With the RTBs open. In this condition, source range Function does not provide reactor trip but does provide indication.

(f) Above the P-7 (Low Power Reactor Trips Block) interlock.

(j) If the as-found channel setpoint is outside its predefined as-found tolerance, then the channel shall be evaluated to verify that it is functioning as required before returning the channel to service.

(k) The instrument channel setpoint shall be reset to a value that is within the as-left tolerance around the Nominal Trip Setpoint (NTSP) at the completion of the surveillance; otherwise, the channel shall be declared inoperable. Setpoints more conservative than the NTSP are acceptable provided that the as-found and as-left tolerances apply to the actual setpoint implemented in the Surveillance procedures (field setting) to confirm channel performance. The methodologies used to determine the as-found and the as-left tolerances are specified in the UFSAR.
