m Date OI-21 OPS Supervisor MINOR Chem Lkb Records Revision 8 Updated 11-18-83 OPS Office Records Updated MIXED BED (H0H) DEMINERALIZER RESIN FLUSH & RECHARGE, 1U1A(B) & 2U1A(B) 1.0 PURPOSE 1.1 To sluice the spent resin out of the "A" ("B") mixed bed demineralizer.

1.2 To recharge the demineralizer with fresh resin.

2.0 PRECAUTIONS & LIMITATIONS 2.1 Have Health Physics monitor the demineralizer (contact and general area) prior to start of sluice. Monitor the El. 26' & El. 8' level of the auxiliary building after completion of the sluice.

2.2 All work activities around area of sluice line, where radiation levels will increase, have been temporarily terminated.

2.3 Resin storage tank T112 relief valve is set at 150 psig. Monitor the cask continuously during flushing operation. Do not exceed 125 psig on resin storage tank pressure gauge.

2.4 Line up monitor tank pump to reactor makeup water header, throttle pump recire valve to maintain 125 psig on the reactor makeup water header.

2.5 If resin storage tank T112 pressure increases to 125 psig and holds, back flushing of the resin retention element on the vent line may be required.

2.6 The rubidum activity levels in the primary auxiliary building may i increase during the spent resin flush if resin bed not off line for

sufficient time to allow radioactive decay.

3.0 INITIAL CONDITIONS 3.1 Verify the following:

3.1.1 Verify the storage tank resin inlet and storage tank vent camlock connections are properly mated and securely wired into place.

o OI-21 Page 2 3.1.2 Camlock female cap installed on the resin storage tank T112 rinse line (center penetration) with padlock installed.

3.1.3 Resin storage tank T112 discharge valve shut (WS-34) and padlock installed.

3.2 Perform the following valve lineup: Position Initials CV-212(CV-223) "A" ("B") mixed bed inlet . . . S CV-213(CV-224) "A" ("B") mixed bed resin fill ............

O CV-390B RMW to ion exchanger . . . . . 0 Record demineralizer to be flushed Unit # Demin. #

3.3 Health Physics perform a survey of ion exchanger to be dumped to get initial readings.

Contact General Area 3.3.1 Permission to sluice resin to storage tank obtained from radioactive waste coordinator who was advised of the above contact reading.

3.4 If the resin being dumped is routed to the resin storage tank via the south dump header, a contact reading of the north header should be taken in the overhead of the north i passageway before dumping. After dumping, an increased contact reading at this same location is indicative that the north header also needs flushing due to resin carrying j on past resin storage tank.

I If dumping via north header, take contact reading on south header as explained above.

Opposite dump header contact readings: ,

OI-21 Page 3 4.0 PROCEDURE Initia's 4.1 Pressurize the reactor makeup water header (reference Step 2.4).

4.2 Open CV-215 (CV-221), "A" ("B") mixed bed resin dump valve.

CAUTION: THIS WILL ALLOW " HOT" RESIN TO FALL BY GRAVITY TOWARDS THE RESIN STORAGE TANK. RADIATION LEVELS WILL PROBABLY INCREASE.

4.3 Open valve CV-374 (CV-376), reactor makeup water to "A"

("B") mixed bed outlet line slowly to a flow rate of about 7-15 gpm while monitoring cask pressure. Do not exceed 125 psig at resin storage tank.

CAUTION: THE RESIN RETENTION ELEMENT ON THE VENT LINE IS LOCATED AT THE TOP OF THE RESIN STORAGE' TANK PROVIDING A MINIMUM AIR SPACE. USE CAUTION WHILE FLUSHING WITH HIGH FLOW RATES TO PREVENT OVERPRESSURIZATION AND LIFTING THE TANK INTERNAL  :

RELIEF VALVE. l 4.4 As required by the radiation levels, vary the flow of the reactor makeup water CV-374 (CV-376) to flush the resin into the storage tank.

~

4.5 When Chemistry indicates the mixed bed is empty, shut CV-374 (CV-376) and CV-215 (CV-221), "A" ("B") mixed bed resin dump valve. Lock CV-215 (CV-221).

Lock #

4.6 Open CV-372 (for Unit 1 or 2 as appropriate) reactor makeup water to spent resin flush line, to flush out the l line until Chemistry indicates the resin is all in the j storage tank, then shut and lock CV-372.

4.7 If a Unit I demineralizer is being dumped -

l l 4.7.1 At T108A&B (polishing demineralizers), check shut l WL-1824 and WL-1823. Open WL-1840 and WL-1825 to flush out residual resin. Do not exceed l 125 psig on resin storage tank. Then shut WL-1840 and lock shut WL-1825. Lock #

l At 1U12C (south evaporator feed demineralizer),

l I

( 4.7.2 open BS-1167A to flush residual resin out of the

south dump header. Do not exceed 125 psig on resin storage tank. Then lock shut BS-1167A.
