O 7.14.5 Record any pertinent coments on the data sheet, 7.14.6 The strip chart (s) and Data Sheets will be transferred to thT 0ffice Surveillance File at the completion of the surveillance.
7.14.7 Calculate the average time required for 5%, 20%, 50%
and 90% control rod insertions.
Complete RE Form 1051-3 with the scram time for each control rod for 5%, 20%, 50% and 90% points.
7.14.8 Using RE Form 1051-3, record the scram insertion times for each required percent insertion and highlight each time which exceeds the tehenical specification limit. At the completion of the scram timing testing, the Reactor Engineer, or his representative, will review RE Form 1051-3.
Any two by two array having two insertion times greater than the technical specification limits will be analyzed using RE Fom 1051-4.
If the te.chnical specification limit is O
exceeded for the three fastest roes in a two by two array, management must be immediately notified.
7.14.9 The control rod scram time data reduction shall be accomplished irr,adiately after the completion of the last control rod to be scramed.
7.14.10 After completion of Data Reduction analysis forward completed Data Sheets to the ISI Coordir.ator.
8.
RESTORATION Upon completion of the Single Rod Scram Control Sheet, perfom the following:
8.1 Remove the Single Rod Scram Test Timing Mark Hodule.
8.2 Place the Recorder Start toggle switch in the AUTO position (928).
Depress the Power ON pushbutton in the Recorder (916).
8.3

7.1).1 ControTRod Location i
7.11.2 Accumulator Pressure, PSIG 7.11.3 Any pertinent remarks 7.12 Notify the Operator to open charging valve 113.
7.13 Repeat steps 7.4.4 through 7.12 for all control rods listed in the Reactor Engineer's Single Rod Scram Control Sheet.
7.14 Data Reduction 7.14.1 Locate time zero on the brush paper at the point where the Channel 30 (right hand line) switches from
~
a solid l,ine to dashed line.
NOTE:
Be careful of " double notches" where no space is visible between notches. Also look for channels that ma.y net have produced a trace at all as this becomes important when assigning rod locations to the individual O
iines on the strip chart.
7.14.2 Mark off the 5%, 20%, 50% and 90% points on the strip chart for all rods involved (refer Figure 10.1 ).
7.14.3 Utilizing the length-to-time template, convert the 5%, 20%, 50% and 90% positions into time and record these values on the Data Sheet, RE Fom 1051-2.
7.14.4 Measure the buffer times and record these values on RE Fom 1051-2.
7.14.4.1 A short buffer (no lenthening of dashes) is indicative of failure of the internal l
seals.
7.14.4.2 A long buffer time (greater than five (5) seconds at rated pressure scrams) is indicative of a plugging internal filter which couM eventually prevent the rod fror w.aming.

11/12/79 If the scram timing is not completed i'n one continous sequence, the Reactor Engineer will deviate as necessary from RE Form 1051-5 to insure that the remaining control rods are scramed without causi,ng unnecessary flux spikes.
7.6 Notify the Operator located on the CRD Hydraulic Modules to close Charging Valve 113 for the rod to be scramed.
CAUTION:
DO NOT REMOVE THE TOGGLE SilITCH FROM THE SCRAM TO THE NORMAL OR SELECT POSITION FOR AT LEAST FIVE (5)
SECONDS.
7.7 Notify the SCO on duty that the rod is about to be scramed and start a countdown from three (3) seconds 7.7.1 At time approximately three (3) seconds, depress the Chart Speed 125 m/sec pushbutton on CRP-916.
7.7.2 At time zero, place the toggle switch for the rod to be scramid in the SCRAM position (center position) on CRP-916.
7.7.3 After five (5) seconds from time zero, depress the Chart Speed Stop pushbutton and reposition the toggle switch to its original position.

7.8 Check the strip recording to verify the entire sequence has been recorded.
If not, repeat steps 7.5 and 7.7.

7.2 Perform the foilowins to ready the Brush Recorder iocated on CRP-916 for scram time testing:
7.2.1 Place'Ihe Test-Auto toggle switch in the TEST position and verify the Recorder runs for ten (10) seconds
~
(92'8).
7.2.2 Return the toggle switch to the AUTO position.
7.2.3 Insure the Chart Speed Stop pushbutton is depressed (916).
7.2.4 Insure the Power ON pushbutton is depressed (916).
7.2.5 Place the Recorder Start toggle switch in the f4ANUAL position (928).
CAUTION:
DO NOT SELECT MORE THAN TWEhTY (20) RODS.
7.3 At the Control Rod Patch board on CRP-928 patch in the rod (s) to be scramed on the desired channels for the strip recorder.
7.4 Connect the Single Rod Scram Test Timing Mark fiodule to CRP-916 as follows:
7.4.1 Obtain the key from the SS and unlock the plexiglass window cover.
7.4.2 Insert the One Rod Test dual plug into the One Rod dual jack located on the recorder.
7.4.3 Insert the Neutral (black) plug into the Neutral jack on the panel.
7.4.4 Insert the Rod (red) plug into the jack on the panel Control Rod Markup corresponding to the rod to be scram time tested.
7.5 Using the Single Rod Scram Control Sheet provided by the Reactor Engineer, RE Form 1051-5, select and independently verify the rod to be scramed on the CRP-905 pushbutton Martrix and withdraw the rod to position 48 (if not already fully withdrawn).
The independent verifier will initial RE Form 1051-5 in the applicable space after the control rod is selected.
