Title | High Pressure Coolant Injection System Inoperable Due to Inoperable Minimum Flow Valve |
Event Description | On December 28, 2010 at approximately 1220 hours0.0141 days <br />0.339 hours <br />0.00202 weeks <br />4.6421e-4 months <br />, during surveillance testing of the High Pressure Coolant Injection (HPCI) system, abnormal control room position indication was observed on the HPCI Minimum Flow Valve, E4150F012 as the valve was stroking closed. HPCI had been removed from service for quarterly surveillance testing at 0950 hours0.011 days <br />0.264 hours <br />0.00157 weeks <br />3.61475e-4 months <br />. The unplanned inoperability condition began at 1220 hours0.0141 days <br />0.339 hours <br />0.00202 weeks <br />4.6421e-4 months <br /> when position indication was lost on the minimum flow valve. The valve was manually closed to comply with the action of LCO 3.6.1.3 to isolate the penetration. A 14 day LCO was entered and back dated to the time that HPCI was removed from service per LCO 3.5.1. This report is being made pursuant to 10CFR50.72(b)(3)(v)(D) as a condition that at the time of discovery could have prevented the fulfillment of a safety function needed to mitigate the consequences of an accident, based on loss of a single train safety system. RCIC was and has remained operable. The failure is currently under investigation.
The licensee notified the NRC Resident Inspector. |
